Trying to capture that youthful glow or sunkissed cheeks? These liquid rouges are perfect for adding the cherry on top of your historical visage.
Choose from the following:
"A rouge that exactly imitates nature" (1772) from the Toilet de Flora. This recipe is sure to please. This is a true red rouge that is easily layered for a more dramatic look. Top seller.
"Turkish Rouge" (1810) This is an exact recipe from the early 19th century. The color is a rich blood red that can be easily layered. According to the author it "...is a beautiful and inoffensive rouge…" meaning it was not overly bright but natural looking for the wearer. Also available as a solid rouge here.
"Bloom of Roses" (1896) "Apply with the corner of a soft handkerchief, taking care that if the color is too bright, it is reduced by means of pure water." This pinky-red color of lip and cheek stain was popular and available in 18th century Paris and eventually was reproduced by many others throughout the 1800-1900s. It continued to sell until 1958.
***All liquid rouges are prone to staining whatever they touch if spilled. Please handle with care***
