Trattato di cosmetica della Signora Chiara da Correggio (2023)

unapi

An unpublished 16th century codex on cosmetics, "Trattato di cosmetica", is preserved in the Laurentian Library in Florence. The codex collects many recipes compiled by an anonymous author and dedicated to Mrs. Chiara da Correggio. It is a small paper manuscript full of secrets that reveal the use and knowledge of cosmetics in Italy at that time. Contains instructions for making perfumed waters for the body and for the home (they were attributed therapeutic qualities), waters for youth or for whitening the skin as well as recipes for taking care of your hair or changing its color, and instructions on how to mix make-up, ointments, perfumes and creams.
