NEW book with secret beauty recipes, can the day get any better? Of course not!
I am an avid book collector and books on beauty are the favorites among favorites! This is a Greek book, by Maura Vayioni-Stasinopoulou, founder and owner of Fresh Line, a cosmetics brand. I must confess that I had not heard of Fresh Line before. Ms Vayioni-Stasinopoulou has a large collection of cosmetic family recipes, which she uses for her brand, and which she has started to publish in books!
Women always found success in the beauty business. The names Estee Lauder, Helena Rubinstein, Elizabeth Arden and, more recently, Bobbi Brown, are household names now, but there have been countless women who made a living by making and selling cosmetics through the centuries! Beauty and women's rights are good for each other.
The book features the recipe for Galen's famous cold cream (Γαληνός, Galen, ancient Greek physician), but also a wealth of original recipes from plants, herbs and foodstuffs -- there's a soap pudding, peeling cream made from cornflakes, sugar and cinnamon bath oil, Nutella facial mask -- it's so yummy!
Have a good evening and be well! xxx
