A very interesting glimpse at everyday cooking in the daily life of 18th-19th century England, with many helpful tips, tricks, and recipes (for the day). The language is enjoyable and the information contained is substantial. -- Jefferson-Madison Regional Library System
Revised and republished many times since its 1747 debut, this cookbook was a bestseller in England and the United States for more than 100 years. George Washington and Thomas Jefferson owned copies, and Benjamin Franklin even translated some of its recipes into French in hopes of attaining a taste of home while abroad.
Author Hannah Glasse dismisses French cookery, the leading cuisine of her day, as inefficient for servants and middle- to lower-class cooks, citing its fussiness, expense, and waste. Instead, Mrs. Glasse focuses on standard Anglo-American fare, from soups and gravies to cakes and jellies, all simple dishes, prepared in a straightforward manner. In addition to practical advice on meat selection, carving, and basic cooking skills, this historically fascinating document offers tips on preparing food for the ill, cooking and food storage on ships, and making soaps and scents for the home. Historians, cooks, and all lovers of gastronomy will appreciate this glimpse into the kitchens of a bygone era.

Darker tint in natural lighting
Colorescience Mattifying Perfector Face Primer SPF 20 is a smooth and silky mattifying primer, but it's too dark for me. For some reason the photos on Amazon and the Colorscience website make the primer look lighter than it actually is. See the photos I included. This primer is good for someone with cool-toned light tan skin. Also, this primer is not fungal acne safe. Luckily the Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Classic SPF 50 is fungal acne safe and a better color match so I use that instead.

If you don't want to spend this much don't try it because you will love it!
This is a great product!! I am hooked on it even though it's expensive. It goes on so smooth and leaves your skin with a soft powdery feeling finish. I decided to buy it for my daughter to try too. She has oily acne prone skin. She's loves it. Also purchased the colorscience cream foundation for her and she wore it for the first time today. She came home from work and said 'Mom I really like this foundation! It's still looks matte and still covers! She was happy because she hasn't had success in finding that a foundation and has always battled shine and oiliness. Very impressive!

This is the perfect primer to wear under your makeup
This is the perfect primer to wear under your makeup. It has salicylic acid in it that helps for acne prone skin. Its a matte finish with a slight tint so if you just want to wear this without applying foundation for the day you can apply a light finishing powder over top and it works great for a quick fresh look.

Great daily sunscreen with lightweight feel
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this sunscreen daily and I really like it. It feels very light on the skin, absorbs quickly, and does not leave a greasy or heavy feeling. It also works well under makeup and does not cause breakouts. I feel my skin is well protected from the sun and it’s gentle enough for everyday use. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a reliable sunscreen.
