Haircare routine:
Jean Harlow would wash her hair with Kirks Castile soap and rinsed it with vinegar to add sheen and help maintain the blonde color. She never used a conditioner and would rub hot castor oil into her scalp before washing her hair.
Kirk’s is the only coconut castile soap brand continuously made since 1839. They only use 100% natural ingredients for health-conscious families who want everyday, high-quality cleansing products – free from chemicals – at a good value. This principle dates back to our founder, James S Kirk.
Makeup:
Jean Harlow used Maybelline Cake mascara that she applied with a fine set of brushes given to her by Max Factor.
Harlow loved Guerlain and most likely used Guerlain radiance powder since it has been around since the 1800s and the first bronzing powder ever made. She preferred a natural and healthy makeup look with a glowing complexion.
