The Royal Treatment
Did you know that it was a customary practice that before being presented to a King for marriage, the bride-to-be received a 12-month “spa” treatment, including: A 6-month massage with oil of myrrh and then another 6-month treatment with balsam oil. Talk about getting the "royal treatment"!
The History of Perfumed Oils
The production and us of perfumed oil has a long history, olive oil based oils in particular. An ancient recipe for making sacred perfumed oil in-part consists of cinnamon, myrrh, and other aromatic plants. Water was scarce in the middle east, so scented oils were used in their hygiene routine. Oil was used not only for protection of the skin in the hot dry climate but also for its cosmetic benefits. Perfumed oils were a valued commodity on a level with silver and gold. Only tiny amounts of perfume or oil could be extracted from the various flowers, fruits, leaves, resins, or bark. Some of the aromatic plants include, aloe, balsam, bdellium gum, calamus, cassia, cinnamon, frankincense, myrrh, saffron, and spikenard. Many of these oils originate from India, South Arabia and Africa. Excavations have uncovered furnaces, jars, and various metal and bone objects used for perfume-making. Balsam oil, in particular, was so highly prized that the methods of cultivation and production were kept secret. And because of that fact, during a war in the first century C.E. there was an attempt to destroy all the balsam plants which, unfortunately, contributed to the discontinuation of the production of balsam oil from that time up to today.
The Origin of Eyeliner
The name “Keren-happuch" in Hebrew could mean “Horn of the Black (Eye) Paint,” which is a receptacle or box used to store makeup, maybe kohl, or eye makeup. References to eye painting are always connected with such notorious women as Queen Jezebel. But based on the large number of glass or stone containers with tiny wands for applying kohl eyeliner that have been unearthed, point to the fact that many women in those times, particularly those of royalty and the rich, had taken up the practice of decorating themselves heavily with eyeliner and other kinds of cosmetics.
What kind of cosmetics did women in ancient times use?
Various archaeological artifacts unearthed in ancient lands provide a glimpse of some of the cosmetics used, including: Stone bowls or palettes for grinding and mixing cosmetic materials, carrot-shaped perfume bottles, alabaster ointment jars, hand mirrors of polished bronze, tiny cosmetic spoons made of ivory or wood and decorated shells were popular cosmetic containers among the well-to-do. All of this testifies to the extent of the use of cosmetics by women of that time.
Did you know?
Since the earliest of times, women have been very interested in making themselves beautiful. Early tomb paintings, frescoes, and mosaics all suggest that the use of cosmetics was widespread among people in ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt. The heavily made up, almond-shaped eyes seen on images of Egyptian women were much admired.

How To Fade Dark Spots Naturally
Lemon juice is an effective way to lighten dark spots, whether from acne, age spots or other scaring. Some of us may have even heard of our grandmothers rubbing lemon halves on their elbows and knees. Freshly squeezed lemon juice or bottled lemon juice will do. First, cleanse the scarred area, then soak a cotton ball or q-tip with lemon juice and smooth it over the marks. Leave the juice in place for ten minutes, then rinse and moisturize as normal.
Winterize Your Skin
Keep your skin moisturized everyday, especially in winter. It has been proven that the best moisturizers are those that contain organic oils like olive oil and Avocado oil.
