Model and actress Dita Von Teese is known for her distinctive retro glamour looks. From the bold red lips to her porcelain skin to her old-school waved hairstyles, there is no denying that Dita always looks perfectly pulled together.
Recently, after perusing her Twitter feed, I discovered some of her beauty secrets she's posted throughout the past few weeks, many responses from questions posed by her followers. If you're a fan of Dita's vintage styles, check out some of her tips, favorite products, and more of what she has to say about her future plans. Just keep reading.
Dita says:
- A quick sweep of powder, lipstick/gloss, sunglasses, and a simple chignon is all one needs to be chic at the airport! [It] takes 15 minutes.
- My favorite foundation is L'Oréal True Match ($11). I use N1. It's Cher's favorite, too.
- [I] love red lipstick with fab packaging. YSL, Dior Rouge Bingo, Guerlain Excess de Rouge ($30) is a fave.
- Sadly, matte lipsticks are becoming extinct, especially in the drugstore. Everything is glossy. I like MAC Ruby Woo ($12).
- Red nail polishes . . . Essie Fishnet Stockings ($8) [and], MAC Rougemarie ($12) are my faves.
- [I] love '40s nail, '50s eye, and fluctuate between '30s, '40s, and '50s hair. But, '40s is my fave era.
- I wore Quelques Fleurs ($95) forever, but lately have been wearing Dior's Passage No. 4 ($490) — but, working on something special fragrance-wise. . .
- I am currently writing a beauty book, in fact. It will probably be out this time next year. It's a big project.
Will you read Dita's beauty book, or wear her perfume?

I heart her.
1sigh...
2I don't understand her. I think she looks fabulous, but she's a stripper. It's hard to respect her for her fashion choices when she takes her clothes off!
3I would love to see one of her burlesque shows. And yes I will buy her new book. =) I have her other book Burlesque and the Art of the Tease. Some of the pictures are perfection!
4lol doogirl, if you're joking then that's pretty funny, but if you are serious, then you should open-up your little mind to what being a stripper really means!!!
5where are the skin tips!? :0 "a quick sweep of powder" doesn't work if you don't have nice skin to begin with
i love dita style and she is a excellent artist
6I will definitely be buying her book. I love her style!
7I love Dita! I think I may just need to add Ruby Woo to my collection of red lipstick now... and I might even give in to the Twitter bandwagon
8Revlon's new matte lipstick line has a very matte and very classic shade of red. and it's budget friendly.
9I might check the book out if I get a chance to do so
10Maybe..but I'd like to see her dress normal for once.. I respect her love for the vintage era and I love it as well..but come on, is it too much work to look normal..
11I adore her.
12So glad she got rid of that piece of sh!t marilyn... that french guy is such a hottie
13I dont really like her look...it feels like a mask.
14I think it's interesting that she looks so well put together and rocks such interesting period looks and yet does stripping/burlesque for a career. Quite the contrasting pairing of look and career. She really does have a classic look all her own and it works well for her. I'd love to know how she gets such flawless skin since I'm pale like her and it just may help me in that area!
15I think she looks lovely, too. She's a living pin-up girl.
I appreciate that she's petite and voluptuous. It's nice to see that body type around. However, I heard that she has breast implants, so part of her voluptuousness is unnatural. Oh well.
16Some people should become more informed. There is a BIG difference between a stripper and burlesque!
17Become more educated. I've been using the red in the Revlon Matte collection, it's really good.
I've always wondered what foundation she uses.
We use the same brand...but my shade is lighter.
I didn't think that would be true.
18I am wearing Quelques Fleurs today...a very rich perfume, a little goes a long way. I always get compliments when I wear it.
19i love dita.
20i love her, but how the hell does lipstick, powder, and a bun take fifteen minutes?! this coming from the girl who is late every single day.
21I love her style and would def. pick up her book!
22gorgeous, i would check out her book for sure
23im in love with Dita.
