Liz Taylor in "Cleopatra". The Egyptians prepared wrinkle creams with natural ingredients
You want to know the recipe for an anti-wrinkle cream very popular among the Egyptians?
After all, the women who lived along the Nile millennia ago have also gone down in history for the beauty and skill with which they knew how to take care of their body.
The main source of knowledge of Egyptian cosmetics, you know, it is represented by papyri; from them we learn characteristics, recipes and secrets used for the well-being of the face and body .
And the recipe for anti-wrinkle cream is also taken from a papyrus which I report below.
beeswax, incense and olive oil were mixed , then a pinch of fresh milk was added.
The ladies of Ancient Egypt spread the compound, rich in nourishing, restorative and soothing properties, on the face and neck and left it on for the time necessary to be absorbed.
Eventually they removed the excess and the epidermis looked like new.
A simple ritual after all, but apparently effective, at least judging from the representations that have come down to us, in which the Egyptians always show, in addition to thin and sinuous bodies, perfect incarnations.
Was it also thanks to this easy easy wrinkle cream? .
