Mesmerising video of Liz Taylor applying make-up re-surfaces

Newly-surfaced footage has been released of legendary screen starlet Elizabeth Taylor very adeptly applying her own make-up before shooting a scene for the 1974 film The Driver’s Seat. And we must say, it’s quite mesmerising to watch.

The Hollywood icon, who sadly passed away in 2011 at the age of 79, was allegedly so well-known for her beauty skills that she would often go without one of the studio’s make-up artists, instead opting to do it herself. And, after seeing the video above, we don’t blame the talented starlet.

It’s rumoured that Liz’s trademark blue smoky eye was actually to help make her eyes look extra white. We wouldn’t be surprised if it were true, as her peepers certainly do pop in this glamourous clip.
