Luxurious Lanolin Cream (1920s Historical Beauty Recipe)
Here is a luxurious lanolin-based cream, based on a recipe from the 1920s, which is excellent for chapped hands. It is beautifully scented with pettigrain, vanilla, and rose, and features various emollients to leave your hands velvet smooth.
All the movie clips used here are from Male and Female (1919) in case anyone was wondering.
Recipe Notes:
- This recipe has been adapted from The Druggists Circular Formula Book (1920)
- I made very few changes to the original recipe, other than decreasing the amount it makes (all these druggist books have huge quantities, as they were meant to create product to sell)
- The almond oil can be swapped out for any liquid oil if you prefer a nut-free product. Olive oil would be a good alternative.
- I adore the scent of this cream, but if you don't care for it (or don't have the necessary oils) you can simply omit the scent or swap it for something else. Lavender essential oil is an inexpensive alternative that works well for hand-cream. (Just avoid citrus oils which could cause sun sensitivity).
- Please note with Vanilla "essential oil": sometimes artificial fragrances are sold as "pure vanilla essential oil". Technically vanilla is not extracted by steam so it is not a "true" essential oil, and that leads to all sorts of labelling issues. Be sure to buy from a reputable company that states how the oil is extracted to avoid being duped (I have been in the past!).
- For preservative, my top choice is always Optiphen Plus as it is is Formaldehyde-free, Paraben-free, Halogen-free and Non-Isothiazolinone. It's one of the best performing and versatile of the more "natural" preservatives.
- If you prefer not to use any sort of preservative, I suggest storing this product in the fridge to extend it's shelf-life. With a preservative it should last over a year, but without it will last maybe a week or two on a countertop or a month in the fridge (more or less, it's hard to predict as it can vary quite a bit).
