ALL THAT ZAZZ SETTIPANE INSURANCE by Mary N. DiZazzo ON THE MOVE Marilyn Monroe’s Makeup by Sal Giarratani

Ciao Bella, A few years ago I had the wonderful opportunity to visit The Hollywood Museum in Los Angeles, California. It is housed in the historic Max Factor building. All my Glamazons are familiar with Max Factor makeup, who in his time was famous for working with Hollywood stars. One of those “Me sitting at Marilyn stars was Marilyn Monroe. Monroe’s makeup vanity, Recently I found on YouTube, Hollywood Museum in LA!” a vintage tutorial by Laura Jane Atelier on some of Marilyn’s fav products. I thought I would share The new Settipane Insurance office on Richard Settipane (center) with office them with you. I also spied the original cases of her makeup etc. Squire Road, Revere assistants Jannette Lopez and Ivelisse at The Hollywood Museum in the Marilyn Monroe makeup room!

And when asked what she offi ce has moved from its longtime location Pastry to 207A Squire Road, Reveret. wore to bed, she replied “Only Chanel No 5”! Among her things in a makeup case was the 1953 Max Factor Crème Puff pressed powder. Also found was her 1948 Max Factor Pan Stick foundation. My Mom and I used the Pan Stick makeup for years. I still have one of my Mom’s 4 Sticks when she passed. Great foundation coverage! Especially for women in fi lm. Ear Plugs were also found in Marilyn’s makeup case when it sold at auction. Beauty Sleep was so important! She was known to wear 5 different shades of Red Lipstick. Ruby Tuesday by Max Factor was one. Recently inspired by Marilyn was Ruby Red by Max Factor. Marilyn’s makeup artist used Vaseline to hi-light her cheek bones and for soft focus, hiding her peach fuzz. I would NOT recommend using Vaseline on your face today. She used Nivea Moisture Creme for dry skin on her hands. Another foundation was Day Dew by Anita of Denmark for great coverage. Helena Reubenstein mascara was found in Marilyn’s case. Another famous makeup icon that ruled the makeup world at one time building a beauty empire. Her legend continues. And last but not least was Erno Lazlo from NY’s PHORMULA 3-9 Repair Balm and his Night Cream to Hydrate and Nourish. So my Glamazons that my beauty scoop for today. Hope you enjoyed it. So now go out and get beautiful!

Boxing Ringside HOOPS and HOCKEY in the HUB by Richard Preiss WITH BOBBY FRANKLIN

A SHORT VISIT BRINGS BACK MEMORIES — It was a warmish Jess Willard - Reconsidered end of summer September day when we made our way to Ristuccia Arena in Wilmington all those years ago to commence what has become a three-decade relationship with Boston Bruins. The temperature was high enough outside that one could probably have gotten away in shirtsleeves but as we all know, the modern game of hockey is primarily an indoor sport. Once inside, we realized that we would defi nitely need the jacket we had brought along. As we were zipping up the front, a man approached and said, “It is kind of chilly in here, isn’t it?” Those initial words of welcome came from the top, one might say, as they were spoken by , the then newly appointed head coach of the B’s who that day was putting his charges through an energetic pre-season practice. We thought back fondly to that encounter a few days ago when Bowness, now 64, appeared once again in the Hub, this time as Willard and Jack Johnson the interim head coach of the .
