Home-Made Face Cream
Dear Aunt Daisy, In your page in The Listener is a request by Miss L. of Queenstown for a good cold cream. She mentioned a recipe of Madame Patti’s, in an article published some years ago. I also saw that article, and made up the recipe and used it in my family, ard for neighbours with chapped hands, with most successful results. This is the method of preparing. — Take equal, parts of mutton kidney fat (must be the kidney fat), melted, and glycerine. It may be only two tablespoons, or a cupful or more, but it must be equal quantities, Add the glycerine to the melted fat. Then beat till the mixture is thoroughly incorporated, otherwise the fat rises to the ‘top; add a few drops of rose water, according to the amount made. It is invaluable for chapped hands, apart from being a_ successful face eream, as well as being most inexpensive. I can thoroughly recommend
it:
