Marilyn MonroeBeauty Queen with Unforgettable Glamour
 Marilyn Monroe was and still remains to this day an icon! Not just in the Pin Up world but also as a powerful woman who allowed women to unleash their sexuality. She was a true model...with curves! She was a woman. Someone to relate to. Her beauty undeniable. Her character fierce. Her sex appeal explosive.

 Norman Mailer wrote in his "Marilyn" book that Marilyn was suspected of having 12 abortions before the age of 29! With abortions being illegal at the time, there were no medical records kept. However, to have that many "back-alley" abortions would have surely messed Marilyn up gynecologically, but her autopsy report doesn't report any abnormalities of this nature.
If you're a pin up and sex symbol as big as THE Marilyn Monroe, of course you would go through a few husbands! -Jim Dougherty, June 1942-September 1946
-Joe DiMaggio, January 1954-October 1954
-Arthur Miller, June 1956-January 1961
-It is alledged that Bob Slatzer was married to her for a few days in Mexico in October 1952. There is no proof for this however.
 Finally the important stuff!
Tell me more about her beauty!
-Her first husband, Jim Dougherty, recalls that she used to rinse her face fifteen times after every wash. Hmmm...that's a boring tip!
-At times she would smear Vaseline, cold cream, or hormone cream over her face. When not wearing makeup, she would apply lanolin or olive oil to her face as a protecting agent.
-She told photographer Bert Stern in 1962 that she always used Nivea Skin Moisturizing Lotion.
Simple tricks...although we will never see whether these beauty secrets would stand the test of time a.k.a ageing.
Bless her heart. Considering she didn't have kids...at least she had some furry companions. 9 of them to be exact. A few dogs, cats, parakeet and a horse. Return from Marilyn Monroe to the Pin Up Girls Page
