WARNING: DO NOT TRY THIS! Lead Makeup from the 1800’s
✦ Product Links ✦
I linked a modern makeup that looks the closest to the original 1831 “white salve“ recipe. If someone was curious to see how it would look on the skin please try the safe product.
Also check out Alicia’s company LBCC Historical if you would like to try safe versions of actual vintage cosmetic recipes!
Check out Professor McNeils website to learn more about lead makeup plush safer alternatives!
