Ancient Beauty Recipes
Differ Little From Today
Bv HENRY MacLENNON
United Press Correspondent
Rome (UPD Women bent
on glamour can take a tip
from ancient beauty hints dis
covered in Italy.
Recipes for health, beauty,
and love are turning up in
attics and old books. Many of
the tips are hundreds of years
old.
One booklet, called "The
Book of Miracles," recently
was found in an attic at Ca
tania. It contained 100 pages
of "cures for mental and phy
sical ailments and aids to
beauty and baldness."
This booklet was compiled
by a monk named Father An
tonio da Militello. He tran
scribed recipes from ancient
scripts and local usages which,
he said, he personally "prov
ed for their worth."
Only one recipe which the
good friar did not try was
a concoction of olive oil and
the juice of lizards for bald
ness. He died m 1946 at the
age of 90, completely bald.
Meat and Beeswax
These reciDes besan in the
Havs of the MedicL Probably
the most famous of all .-were
pamphlets compiled by Cate-
rina Sforza of Forli. bhe was
one of the early beauty ex
perts in the world. A descend
ant. Caterina dei Medici, made
famous the Italian art of cos
metics and perfumes of the
15th Century.
But Caterina Sforza invent
ed this. Italian art. And while
other great ladies of her day
secretly tried out many
beauty cures and aids, jealous
ly guarding their finds, she
published every one of her
recipes.
Caterina Sforza had a nat
ural beauty, but she always
feared wrinkles and old age
that would "deter a husband's
love."
Most important for Caterina
was the "liscio" or face cos
metic. She was not content
with ordinary powdered rice
or" antimony for the cheeks,
saffron for the lips," sage for
the teeth, and charcoal for
the eyelids and eyebrows. She
came up with startling appli
cations of fresh meat for the
care of the face. x .
In face - creams, Caterina
Sforza went for refined bees
wax mixed with distilled wa
ter, which she applied in the
evening and removed the next
morning by washing off with
specially .preserved spring
water.
Blonde Hair
A hand cream consisted of
boiled nettle roots and leaves.
Nettle juice also was consid
ered good for dandruff.
Caterina Sforza invented a
face-freshener of rose water
in which two ounces of cam
phor, sulphur and myrrh had
been steeped.
In Venice, women were the
first to dye their hair blonde.
Their method was to wash the

ascorbic acid, is found in to

hair in egg and saffron and
then bleach it in the sun on
their terraces. It was more
successful as a means to meet
their lovers.
Caterina Sforza experiment
ed with the problem of
bleaching and came up with
the usual egg and saffron
wash, but added a distilled
concoction of cinnabar and
sulphur.
She also invented the first
blonde tints. One was celan
dine (figwort), pink agrimony,
roots and stalks of brush
broom, and oat hay, boiled
slowly in a sieve container.
The second consisted of
pomegranate peels, ash pith,
broom flowers and melted
soap. Both washes needed
careful drying in the sun so
that the hair would become
the "color of gold."
For the lips, her remedy
was aquavite and roots of
myrrh steeped in a strong
wine.
A good day-cream for the
face was mashed bitter al
monds cooked under a slow
heat with iris of Levant flow
ers, mustard seeds, rose wa
ter and unrefined honey.
Beauty cures and aids have
not changed much in 500
years, it seems.
