Hello,

you're here!
As a
small addition to the range of goods, here is some information on the
history of personal care in Europe. Enjoy reading:
As
is the case, the perfection of personal hygiene began with the higher
classes of society. This was also the case in ancient times. The
bathhouses that were common at the time offered the opportunity to
bathe in goat's and donkey's milk. This treatment promised softer and
smoother skin. In the ointment rooms, visitors could be massaged with
oils, honey, bran or fruit extracts. Perfumed water, creams and make-up
were also part of the personal hygiene program of the privileged.
In Christianity, which emerged later, it was considered inappropriate
to pay more attention to the body than necessary. People tended to
equate physical beauty with vanity (vanitas). It was even considered a
sin not to leave one's own body as God created it. The concept of
beauty here referred more to the 'inner values' of a person. For this
reason, oils, ointments and creams were from then on used exclusively
for medical treatment purposes.
During the Renaissance and Baroque periods, the plague raged in Europe.
People avoided contact with water because it was thought to be the
source of the disease. As a result, people hardly ever bathed or
washed. Beer was the most common drink, as it was considered safer than
plain water due to its (germicidal) alcohol content. Instead of
cleansing the body, the focus in more sophisticated circles was now on
cosmetic facial treatments and perfuming the body. People of both sexes
wore wigs made of blond, curly hair as headgear. It was also considered
chic to make up one's face with a thick layer of white powder. The
powder used at the time sometimes contained lead, the poison of which
caused many skin diseases.
During the Classical period, concerns about the use of plain water
gradually disappeared. Pastor Kneipp developed his water therapies
during this period. Water pouring, baths, wraps and even soap now
became fashionable. Women now wore more subtle makeup.
At the end of the 19th century, industrial mass production of cosmetics
became possible. This meant that even people from the lower classes had
access to body care products. The noble restraint with regard to makeup
was now discarded. Highly teased hair and scented wigs now came into
fashion. Another novelty of this time: deodorant.
The "golden 20s" of the 20th century were a heyday of body cult.
Opportunities for saunas and skin treatments in beauty salons were
created. Women who valued their contemporary appearance now applied
subtle powder, painted their lips red, outlined their eyes with dark
makeup, plucked their eyebrows very thinly and wore the so-called "bob"
hairstyle.
Since the post-war period, regular body care and the use of cosmetic
products have become an integral part of everyday life for most people.
Today, especially most women, use make-up, lipstick, eye shadow,
blusher, contouring, etc. as a matter of course.
