Hand Cream
2 oz. Glycerine
2 oz Rosewater ... both these in one bottle
1 oz Spirits of Camphor
1/4 oz. Gum of Tragacarth
Juice of 1 Lemon
Gill Water.
Let Gum of Tragacarth (or Tragacanth .. sorry, can't quite read her writing and no longer with me to ask) stand in spirits of Camphor overnight, then add rest of ingredients.
Squelches a bit when you rubbing in if I remember, but does work.
Me?I prefer to use a Nivea 'anti-ageing' only because it contains SPF's ..stops those 'liver spots' which is just sun damage.
