1745 French Powdered Rouge
4g- Will last you a long time
Glass Jar with Screwtop 
Carmine
 
Natural Cheek Color, Pretty Pink
This recipe came from Hannah Glasse. This is a beautiful blush with simple and natural ingredients. It basically uses hair powder and carmine - you were to mix it to your own preference- "making it as pale as you please" according to the later 1796 edition. We mixed a color that would have been favored within the first edition published in 1745. Ingredients include Carmine and Potato Starch - which became just as popular as wheat starch in 18th-century Europe. This is a beautiful color and can be applied with a blush brush. It goes on very smoothly and allows you to buff it in- if you want a more subtle look or leave it as-is for that dramatic look -popular in early 18th-century France. You also may use scented waters to lighten and soften the color if you desire. I prefer to use a little bit of water to make it pop, and also by applying it this way- it will stay on all day!
