About this book:
An enchanting compilation of traditional beauty creams and lotions, household hints and remedies, first written down by the author’s grandmother, and here re-created from her faded, treasured notes.
These are the beauty secrets of a time when nothing was wasted, not a leaf of mint of a sliver of lemon peel: a time when no modest woman painted her face, yes every woman of sense made the most of what Nature supplied.
Mavis Budd has illustrated her grandmother’s charming, natural beauty recipes and practical advice with a wealth of delicate line drawings, portraying the familiar, much-loved flowers and plants of the countryside around the family home.
