Freckle Remover Recipe From Historic Note
A historical fragment describes a bleaching cream using two ounces honey, half an ounce glycerin, a dram and a half citric acid, half an ounce rectified spirits, and three drops ambergris. Melt honey gently, combine with glycerin as citric acid dissolves, add spirits then ambergris, beat with a silver fork, use a china bowl, store in small porcelain jars.
Skin Bleaches Use and Postcare Advice
The article advises lemon juice as a bleach for blemishes but warns acid can roughen skin if rubbed off before drying. It recommends cold cream after juice, and notes cucumber rub can also roughen skin yet remains a bleaching option with similar aftercare.
