You have been asking for a long time and we are so excited to finally bring to you real pearl powder. Pearl Powder is pretty timeless. We start seeing many references to it in the 19th century, but it was used before then. Historically if you wanted to make pearl powder, you would dissolve the pearls in vinegar. Pearl Powder has always been expensive, even historically. One 1826 recipe says, "It was only for the curious and the rich!" Powders like Rice Powder and different combinations of starches were also commonly used for face powders. This is the first time we see the doctors pushing for a decline in white face paint and replacing it with powder. It was easier said than done. "Paint" was still being used, and we see references for and against it in the years to come. The younger crowds were more prone to using the powders because many of the magazines constantly continued to attack paint calling it part of the "Old Regime" in favor of face powder, and reading these new beauty magazines was the first step to achieving the knowledge to obtain the new desired looks. Slowly, face powder becomes the new necessary cosmetic on a woman's toilette. As the 19th century progresses, we see a rise in the use of facial powders. We actually have an original wooden face powder container dating to 1862. 

NOTE: Sample Size, when available, comes in a little ziplock baggie with no puff.
