“Through knowledge of the secrets of makeup gives you the power to alter your appearance in a most surprising way. If you study your type carefully, admitting defects while recognising the opportunities for beautifying, you will soon be rewarded with a complete transformation.”
— HOME BEAUTY COURSE by Marjorie Oelrichs, 1927

My great grandma Shalimar “Tea Rose” lose powder pot by French company Guerlain. It was a present her cousin bought to her coming back from Paris in 1930s. She was so fond of it (my grandma told me) that she barely used it, that’s why some of the original content is still in there! In fact, if you smell it, you can still get the soft notes of that alluring old-times powdery perfume. This gets me mesmerized every time I smell this and a vivid image of my great grandmother comes in to my mind: an image of her sitting in front of her mirror’s vanity desk applying a coat of powder on her face, surrounded by a dusty perfumed cloud. The pure incarnation of femininity!

“I don’t love you as if you were a rose of salt, topaz,
or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:
I love you as one loves certain obscure things,
secretly, between the shadow and the soul...” Sonnet XVII by Pablo Neruda

“There’s an old Christmas card in an old dusty trunk
And it brings back sweet memories dear to me
’Though it’s faded and worn, it’s as precious as the morn
When I found it ‘neath our first Christmas tree ...”
— An old Christmas Card, song by Jim Reeves, 1963
