"Kohl" We where each assigned a color with a small except explaining the history of the color. We where only aloud to use the color assigned in the artwork. I was assigned Kohl, which was used in ancient Egypt as a sort of eyeliner, worn for its protective qualities both against the sun and against illnesses that affect the eyes. The rich would mix crushed pearls or emeralds or such things to add a shiner to their kohl. It was later discovered that the chemicals kohl is made of helps prevent eye infection. My ancient Egyptian grammar may be off but the hieroglyphs spell out "ointment that protects the eyes" in ancient Egyptian. The hieroglyph on the top right is the symbol of Sheshat goddess of scribes and illustrators.

For everyone that struggles with (hormonal) acne / pimples

ZINC OXIDE

You can literally buy a diaper/nappy cream with zinc in it! It's great!

As soon as you feel pressure under your skin from a pimple that's coming up, lather some of that nappy cream on it!

You can do it during the day if you don't plan on going out.

(the cream is usually very white in colour)

I usually do it before going to bed!

The next day, 9 times out of 10

ITS GONE!

That one time it isn't gone, I just rinse and repeat! It is amazing!

No more pain, no resisting popping pimples, no more embarrassing giant whiteheads on your face! No more scarring your skin!

And for all Crunchy girls/mom's

You could also make your own zinc oxide cream, with your preferred ingredients.

I'd use Non-nano zinc oxide!

It's the best.

It was my birthday a few days ago now, I felt a pimple coming the day before, used the cream at night.

Next day I had a pimple free birthday 🎊 ☺️🩷

Last summer’s datura inoxia crop. I grow and harvest my own datura to make a herbal salve. I’ve been making datura ointment for over a decade. Most people use it for medicine for severe pain, inflammation, insomnia, and anxiety rather than as a flying ointment. It’s my mom’s favourite for her arthritis pain.

I’ve been growing datura for 15 years now. I fell in love after smelling my first fragrant trumpet flower and I’ve been a goner ever since. Datura has my heart and has always been kind to me despite her fearsome reputation. Don’t mess with her and she won’t mess with you.
