6 Weird Beauty Secrets of the Most Beautiful Women in History

Empress Elisabeth

Secret beauty ritual: a face mask lined with raw veal

According to historians, Empress Elisabeth of Austria was the most beautiful woman on earth in the 19th century. She was adored by every European individual because she looked gorgeous and had beautiful skin and amazing long hair. 

However, she made a huge effort to keep her beauty on fleek, namely that she crushed strawberries over the skin, bathed in olive oil, and used a face mask lined with raw veal. Her favorite food was pressed extract of chicken and beef and then she wore a tight corset around her waist (which measured about 49.5 centimeters / 19.5 in). She used to arrange her hair in different braids that usually took her three hours to take them off. As I said before, she had long hair which sometimes caused her headaches because it was too heavy.
