Vintage Lipstick, Hair Dryer and Home Decor eBay and Thrift store Haul 

When I was a girl, my mother had one of those fancy Avon lipstick cases. When I was in college, Estee Lauder had a case you could buy and put your plastic case in. Francis Denney was a big brand. She put out two famous perfumes, Hope and Interlude. I had a Sunbeam hatbox hairdryer. You could set it on a table and sit and read while your hair dried just like at a salon. Blow drying is work compared to that. Timeless is one sort of vintage (70's) scent still available. It's a nice scent and men always notice it favorably. My two favorites no longer available were Cotillion and Persian Wood. Much of their modern stuff is so "meh" compared to those. My mother wore Persian Wood.

So totally agree with you. The plastic packaging is cheaper for these companies, but the metal is so much nicer!

I personally don't wear vintage or collect it - but I enjoy watching the content because it gives me a doorway into my grandmother's life and history - love it - love it

my favorite vintage piece is my silver tinsel Christmas tree, silver trees and a color wheel were very popular back in the 60's I would sit on the floor and watch the tree change colors, something I will never forget.

Estee lauder "stay all day" lipsticks come in gold metal packaging. Some shades have a vintage vibe, like frosted apricot. My mom gave me a hot coral one in the late 1990s. They may have a longer history, I'm not sure.

Love the vintage lipsticks. From the Mind of Christine McConnell did a diy with vintage lipsticks showing how to put new lipstick into the vintage case and it turned out AMAZING. So glad you came up in my feed, I really do enjoy your uploads xx

I loved the vintage children’s perfume and nail color that was called Tinkerbell. It was so fun to get in your Christmas stockings.

You are so lucky T_T whenever i go to a anitique shop i never got good things there, loved thrift shopping especially from a decade things

By calling 1-800-FOR-Avon, you may be able to get the exact production and discontinuation dates of the Avon lipstick shades.

Apart from loving all vintage things myself, I also find your voice very soothing. It makes me feel calm, thanks for such great work! Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷

Hi Laura, after I saw the needlework picture that you bought, I remembered that I made, with my own hands approximately 20 Needlepoint pictures , which I still have, working on them in my spare time, all in the 70's and some later, as I am hooked on making them, and I have them hanging in my house, one is over my couch, which I made in the early part of 1978, while working for H.U.D. as a Secretary, and I worked on it for four hours a day; and it took six months to finish. It is pretty large and it has lots of fall colors and it has a house and a windmill, and two women and a child in it. I cannot believe it how much patience I had to make it and finish it. You have brought vintage things into my mind and thank you for that. I like your cat Pinkie.

Mother and I always have those hairdryers! You roll your hair and then just slipped a little bonnet over your rollers in your hair would be dry just as if you had been at the beauty parlor! I know they look really weird today, but hello, if you had your hair rolled and needed to dry your hair quick, those little bonnet dryers worked really really well! I just love your channel! I had a happy childhood in the 50s and 60s and love looking back and remembering all these sweet reminders of what was surely a happy time in my life! Love vintage items still! Bless you for the time you take exposing others to the delights of earlier times! 💐🌷💕

Don't forget to follow me on Instagram and say hello:) instagram.com/dahliasintheattic/ Let me know if you can still buy some of these vintage lipstick colours I am so curious!

Great finds! The hair dryer is a classic!❤

AHHH THE KITTY TEAPOT IS SO CUTE 😭

Hair dryer is a real throw pack, although we used juice cans soup cans. To roll our curly hair to straighten air dry.......smile

Yes peach had to be popular lipstick in the 60's because that was my mother's only color she wore.

Love all your finds, especially the hair dryer-with a perfume spot, how cool is that.

You do such a nice job with your videos, Laura! I, too, love vintage cosmetics and beauty products. I have 2 1950s jewelry boxes, having recently acquired the second one. I am old enough to have used a hair dryer almost identical to the one you showed. My hair was naturally curly at a time when nothing but pin straight hair would do. So, I put my hair in gigantic pink plastic rollers and attempted to fit that bonnet over them. Very uncomfortable to sit under that for a solid hour, but I must have thought it was worth it at the time! My favorite thing that you found was that adorable card of vintage barrettes. Thanks again for a great video!

You are so right the packaging from years ago was gorgeous I have some lipsticks & nail polish & compacts from grandmother, also I love the older nail polish containers with the long delicate handles which seem much easier to use when polishing our nails. We all know that compacts were very beautiful too. Fabulous video my friend

De cherry pie form is awesome; the picnic basket too!! 🤩

Older lipstick has a very nostalgic smell , I also love the vintage packaging. I love everything you have shown us . I have a few vintage jewellery boxes some have ballerinas with music. I also have some vintage vanity cases leather ones , my dream is to find a pink one .xx

Such lovely vintage lipsticks! I would love to see how it goes refilling them, would love to see a video on that. Hugs...💜

As regards the lipstick colors - yes indeed those pale pale shades were all the rage in the 60s. I suppose they were a reaction to the vivid reds and oranges of the 30s, 40s and 50s! I first started wearing lipsticks in the late 70s when the brown and burgundy shades were in vogue - very dramatic and goth-like. 😁 I love your channel and adore your background music. ❤️

I love your channel! Going down the memory lane... Mmmm I love it. Thank you for being here.

Love your channel! I use to have a vintage hair dryer like yours. It belonged to my Mum. It was pink and had the nail dryer. 💗

The hairdryer brings back memories. They should make them like that again. I used to just blow dry my hair with the hose end, not the cap. I straightened my hair, but Mum set hers in rollers so she needed the cap. ☺💕⚘

Thank you for your Vintage Channel. KEEP it coming

I agree that those old hair dryers were a great product. I had one of the Sunbeam hat box hair dryers. It was so relaxing to sit and read while drying your hair. You ask why they aren't still made. I believe it is because setting hair on rollers has almost died out. The lady who cuts my hair says setting hair on rollers is no longer taught in cosmetology school. That blew me away. There is only one old lady at the local salon who knows how to set hair for the older ladies who want it. I've had a blunt cut longish bob for several years now. I love the freedom to just run a brush through it and go, but there is nothing relaxing about having to stand up in the bathroom and blow it out after shampooing! As recently as 2010 when I retired I had been using electric hot rollers every morning and was shocked when I went to an unfamiliar salon and they didn't have any hot rollers to style my hair. They did a bad job of it with a curling iron, and the curl didn't even last until I got to the next place I was going that day.

The hairdryer made me think of my mom. She had one very similar. I love Avon to this day and their lipsticks are wonderful. And the embroidered framed flowers made me think of thistles from Scotland where my grandparents on my dad’s side were from.😌

I love finding finished & framed needlepoint in thrift stores !!!!( especially florals & Hollie Hobbie)) In case you were wondering yours is Thistle , the flower of Scotland. Many Thistle designs have long been used on ladies clothing & home fashions. The one you found is quite romantic looking. What a great idea of the designer to use 3-d pom-poms for the petals!

I remember when lipstick came in metal tubes. I miss them, they felt more elegant.

I remember growing up and I had one vintage lipstick use to use it and I have no clue what I did with the case but I love it I think if it all the time

love the teapot and I love Avon vintage wish they would bring their fragrances back also love the jewelry boxes I have a vintage one similar to yours love your videos and you look lovely tfs enjoyed watching

I love you finds , so cool ,,thank you for posting this

I recently discovered Besame cosmetics. I love their vintage colors and their lipsticks comes in a very nice metal gold case, nothing plastic.

I had a hair dryer like that,,also my mom had fancy lipstick cases with Rhinestones on it , and she had fancy clip collars that go over sweaters

Such a lovely haul. That teapot is super adorable. 💖

From one cat lady to another love your buys ! X

I had a similar hair dryer when I was a teen. It was old then. I remember the cap was scratchy & the hose started to crack. So I had to tape it. I also have 2 Jewelery cases 1950’s. The locks are broken on both. They belonged to my mom & grandmother.

I love your channel omg ✅👏💯 thank you so much for this

I go vintage shopping quite often I found a jewelry it's on the smaller side light green in perfect condition I believe it's from the early 50s made by Farrington comp. Love your lipstick collection

My loved peach and Corals. She had the same Avon from the time I was 13 till I was 38, when she passed away Mrs Ferguson. Even my daughters got jewelry, make up from Avon. I still wear a few favorites I'm 66.....

Crewel work...I like the thistles ...nice find !

Hello Laura June! Beautiful haul! I still have one of those black jewelry boxes. Maybe possibly you can do a video on Vintage Music/Jewelry Boxes! I've started a collection myself. I think they're so romantic. I also collect Vintage Porcelain trinket containers. Or how about Vintage Dusting Powder containers? I'm looking now & sometimes the original unopened powder is in there. I better stop now 😉 😉 🌹 I love cats & have 6. 💖💕

love your dress

You found some great things! My favorites are 1) the picnic basket - I've been looking for one like that one! 2) the jewelry boxes -- I have a wooden one in gold shaped like a dressing table (not sure if its vintage) ; 3) that pie plate is so cute! If you do your picnic photo shoot, put a pie in it!😋 I think your cat teapot might be from the late 80s -- I had an English teapot in those same colors shaped like a cottage and it looks like it could be from that same manufacturer (Sorry I can't remember the name and I no longer have the teapot!😭)

Hi I just wanted to let you know. I have a jewelry box very similar to your blue one. And mine has a secret compartment in the bottom. With mine all you have to do is pull on the fabric slightly (be very careful since its old) and the bottom will fold up. Just thought you might want to know. Hopefully yours has one too!

I have just recently found your channel and have been enjoying every video I have watched!! Your love for vintage shines through. Do not ever let the rude or snide comments get to you. Some people have no couth.

Love it Laura..Love the hair dryer🤗I lean towards cat items too!!i have 4 cats and a chihuahua 😁😁

my fave piece from me own collection is 150 year old bracelet and a antique perfyme bottle

I love your style ❤️ thank you so much for sharing! Do you have a vanity? I’d love to see how your style your makeup area.

Hi Laura. I used to sell Avon but after they no longer sold metal lipstick tubes. I also have a vintage jewlery box that similar to your green one. You got a very nice selection of items. Pinky would look adorable in the basket.

Good lipstick ideas for your new cosmetic line.

The bonnet dryers still exist, though not as cute looking! I own one & yes, I use it to set my hair when it's in rollers, but I actually find it dries my hair better & faster than the handheld one, so sometimes I just put it over my wet hair & let it dry. When I was a kid, we had the hard top one like they use at the hair salon. I though it looked like R2D2! XD

Ohh I want some vintage lipstick now ! How do you go about looking into it ? Thx !

If you buy Estee lauda or Joan Collins timeless beauty lipsticks 💄💄💄 they are in metel cases...love your channel you always play beautiful music... 💕🎵🎶❤️Now come on girl get those red nails fixed 😂😂😂I would like to know how to refill old lipstick cases....

I am absolutely in love with your personality. You are an old soul.💕 And I appriciate (as a classical musician) that you put classical music in background.. I am a piano professor and à violin beginner. I am so enjoying watching your videos. I just can't recognize this piece that you put on this video as a background music... Can you tell me what is the name of the piece?

They still make the Bonet hair dryers but I’m pretty sure the don’t come with a nail dryer🙂

Why is it that everything back in the days was Beautiful!!!!

My sister had one of those hairdryers in the 60's.

New subbie here. Love your videos I am also very obsessed with vintage cosmetics and perfumes. I think the Estée Lauder one not for resale, may have been a gift with purchase. So wish lipstick was still in metal cases. I think that blue Avon is from early 70s and don't think its refillable. The tortoise shell one late 60 s. Did you try any of the lipsticks on??

Helpful tip: To take off paper price stickers make them wet with lighter fluid and gently remove them. It will evaporate and won't affect the original packaging.

The artwork is Divine in it's slimline frame

Yes the plastic lip gloss that looks like lips I bought that a few years back but I'm trying to find me a new avon lady were I live

What kind of hat/scarf (?) are you wearing?

Where did you get your head wrap ? So sheek !

Oh and as a little aside that might be helpful, anytime at the bottom of a lipstick you see a zip code, that means your lipstick was produced after 1963.

What do you do with the actual lipstick? I'm pretty sure that because the lipstick is so old it probably has lots of bacteria etc. So before display do you remove the actual product? Love these videos. Keep it up x

I love the packaging, I personally would sterilize them and reuse them. Colourpop has metal containers for their lipsticks. Avon used to have such pretty packages.

What's the name of the monthly jewelry you get?

Hi Laura new subscriber

Off topic question - the purple doll in the full skirt that's in this video in the background (and some of your other videos) - do you know anything about them? My mom has 4 of them, and she purchased hers in the Okanagan about 40 years ago.

My Mom🌹

I believe the reason makeup manufacturers stopped packaging their lipsticks in metal containers is because the metal would interact with the lipstick. Causing it to go rancid. My grandma had a hair dryer like that

Omg. Nooooo. My word I hated that thing.

love u smile

Whenever you see the ZIP Code at the bottom of your lipstick after the name of the company, it means the lipstick was made after 1963.

OMG, I hope you are NOT actually using those vintage lipsticks on your lips! :O They used to add lead and other harmful chemicals! My mother would not let me use lipstick till I was in my late teens because when she was young (vintage times!) those lipsticks were so bad, they pretty much bleached her natural lip color away permanently, so even though modern lipsticks don't have those harmful chemicals, she still had that perception about lipsticks. And she is not the only one - ask anyone who was young in 50-s-70s.

Not to be rude but that thing on your head doesn't go with the dress which is lovely. It looks out of place and makes your bangs really flat.

Your nails....oh dear

Why you always show stuff in your bedroom , why not living room ?

The hair clips were made in Peterborough Ontario which about 2 hours from my home! Also sorry but your nails are distracting me ugh!
