I tried Marilyn Monroe's BIZARRE Morning Routine (Should You ?!?!)
After researching Marilyn Monroe, I discovered her unique morning routine in a copy of 1952 Pageant Magazine that consists of raw eggs beaten into warm milk for breakfast. She follows this with some bust firm exercises that she does on the floor with five-pound weights. Marilyn doesn't like to feel rushed in the morning and takes her time to wake up. Marilyn says, "Now I spend at least 10 minutes each morning working out with small weights. I have evolved my own exercises for the muscles I wish to keep firm, and I know they are right for me because I can feel them putting the proper muscles into play as I exercise." "Each morning after I brush my teeth, wash my face and shake off the first deep layer of sleep, I lie down on the floor beside my bed and begin my first exercise. It is a simple bust-firming routine consisting of lifting five-pound weight from a spread-eagle arm position to a point directly above my head. I do this 15 times, slowly. I repeat the exercise another 15 times from a position with my arms above my head. Then, with my arms at a 45-degree angle from the floor, I move my weights in circles until I'm tired. I don't count rhythmically like the exercise people on the radio; I couldn't stand exercise if I had to feel regimented about it." "that nature, I suppose I have a languorous disposition. I hate being in a hurried, tense atmosphere, and it is virtually impossible for me to spring out of bed in the morning. On Sunday, which is my one day of total leisure, I sometimes take two hours to wake up, luxuriating in every last moment of drowsiness. Depending upon my activities, I sleep between five and ten hours every night. I sleep in an extra-wide single bed, and I use only one heavy down comforter over me, summer or winter. I have never been able to wear pajamas or creepy nightgowns; they disturb my sleep."

Marilyn Monroe followed a very progression beauty routine prescribed to her by Erno Lazlo. In 1959, he prescribed Monroe a detailed skin routine to address one of her chief skin complaints: dry skin.

Morning Routine: Marilyn's morning routine began with a face cleansing using Erno Lazlo Active Phelityl Soap and warm water. After cleansing, she was instructed to apply Erno Laszlo Normalizer Shake-It. This product was a tinted mattifying toner that was relaunched in honour of its partnership with the makeup museum. Marilyn was told to shake the bottle and saturate a piece of cotton "to the dripping point" and applying it all over her face, except the delicate eye area, then blotting off immediately. For the eyes, Marilyn was to use the Erno Laszlo pHelitone Eye Cream, which has been discontinued, followed by the discontinued Duo-Phase Face Powder over her entire face and neck.

Use a blender for those eggs and milk; add honey and nutmeg, only a little. Oh, and vanilla too. Eggnog. Much better. Organic honey.

Yikes! I've heard about the egg and milk drink. My Mom used it! She put 2 top. of sugar and a dab of vanilla and blended it. She also used a multi vitamin, vitamin c and e everyday! Nope I wouldn't touch it! My Mom also did a work out for woman with Jack Lalane. She also did her make up and dressed in a day dress with an apron as she was always busy cooking or cleaning. She had a day to do everything! Monday was dusting, Tuesday was floors. Wednesday was laundry, Thursday was shopping day, , etc. She was Mom to 4 kids, but we had a live in young nanny and she had a lady who came to cook all our meals. The rest was her job. I think my Mother was a lucky lady! I raised 7 kids, had a full time job, cooked and cleaned and I had 0 help (except my husband, he's awesome!) So yes my Mom was very fortunate!

The eggs and milk kind of reminds me of old fashioned homemade eggnog. I found these recipes from the 40s, and it's almost like the first one, minus the brandy. I remember as a little girl my grandmother made a homemade eggnog of milk, egg yolks, sugar and nutmeg, and it tasted awful. Then again, salads made of things like tuna or meat and jello were popular at that time, so people had a very different sense of taste.

My mom used to make us milkshakes with a raw egg in it. We could never taste it. I always thought that was how everyone made shakes!🤣🤣

I was raised on raw eggs blended with milk. My mother would add a little honey and nutmeg on top; delicious.

After hearing her morning routine I can see why she was always late for movie sets. I agree Laura I think if you put some vanilla and I drink it probably would’ve gone down a lot easier.🥛

I discovered your channel when I woke up one day and realized I am in love with Marilyn Monroe.

[ChelseaH]

I love watching these routine videos while I’m waking up in the morning. Helps me start my day. 🌞

A little deeper shade of red lip liner and lighter or even white lip stick in the center over your primary red would really give you the "Marilyn" lip look. P.S., I gotta get something with that Holly Golightly cat, that is too adorable!

I couldn’t drink raw eggs in milk. It would make me sick.

[anneplowman]

I love your emulation of her routine ❤ it adds a new level to the charm! 😍

[imontosomething]

I tried the milk and egg drink but I added vanilla and stevia to it.

I also whipped it up with a drink mixer.
Tasted pretty good.

When I was a little girl back in the 60s my mother would make "eggnog" for me to drink. She used whole milk, eggs, vanilla and a little sugar. She'd blend it with her hand mixer. It was very good.

1 raw egg, some milk, and banana blended up is pretty good 😅 my boyfriend drinks this every morning so I tried it and it taste like a creamy banana shake.

You're pretty brave for tasting the milk and eggs.😅

[AScreenwritersJourney]

Your room is fabulous! I used to have a pink throw rug like that. I miss it.

[sylviamitbrodt]

I really like the animation that you have added to your videos!

[Princessm]

Your channel has become one of my faves! ❤️So funny that you tried the milk thing because I was just wondering how that would taste, but wasn’t brave enough! Lol
