Before I take my morning shower, I start warming a cup of milk on the hot plate I keep in my hotel room. When it’s hot, I break two raw eggs into the milk, whip them up with a fork, and drink them while I’m dressing.
I supplement this with a multi-vitamin pill.
Every night I stop at the market near my hotel and pick up a steak, lamb chops or some liver, which I broil in the electric oven in my room.
I usually eat four or five raw carrots with my meat, and that is all. I must be part rabbit; I never get bored with raw carrots,
It is a simple bust-firming routine which consists of lifting five-pound weights 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.

Skin Prep: In the days before highlighters dominated the beauty aisles of every drugstore, Marilyn Monroe was left to her own devices to get a dewy glow. Her product of choice? Vaseline! She applied petroleum jelly to her skin as a moisturizer before following it up with foundation.
Extra: Her thoughts on tanning: “Despite its great vogue in California, I don’t think suntanned skin is any more attractive… or any healthier, for that matter. I’m personally opposed to a deep tan because I like to feel blonde all over.”

The shape of your eyebrows totally depends on the shape of your face. Marilyn favored arched brows with a slight angle, and had her makeup artist draw on her pointed brows. She believed that a sharp peak would minimize the wideness of her forehead.
Her makeup artist used blush to contour her cheeks and her nose. Just a dab of pink powder blush at the tip created a shortening effect, making her nose look more button-like.
She used 5 different lipstick shades. He used darker shades of red at the outer corners of the lips, keeping lighter shades in the middle to add some dimension. A light highlighter shade was used right in the middle of the bottom lip and on the cupid’s bow to create a pouty effect.
Hourglass Figure: She laid her focus on wearing clothes that highlighted her hourglass figure.
