1891 Antiseptic Borax Cleans Mirror Satisfied Sees Skin Skincare Toilet Detergent
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from 1891 showcases a woman, radiant with satisfaction, as she gazes into her mirror after using Bi-Borax Oriental, an antiseptic detergent. The use of Bi-Borax Oriental was a popular skincare routine during this era, known for its cleansing and purifying properties. Bi-Borax Oriental, a non-toxic and naturally-derived antiseptic, gained immense popularity in the late 19th century for its ability to maintain personal hygiene and promote healthy, glowing skin. The lady in the photograph, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, holds a small porcelain basin filled with water and a few drops of the detergent. As she gently washes her face, the steam from the water rises, enveloping her face in a soothing mist. The soft light filtering through the room illuminates her reflection, highlighting her flawless complexion. The image captures a moment of tranquility and self-care, as the woman takes pride in her appearance and the effectiveness of her skincare regimen. Bi-Borax Oriental was a significant innovation in the realm of personal hygiene and skincare during this time. Its antiseptic properties made it an essential component of daily routines, providing a sense of cleanliness and purity that was highly valued in Victorian society. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of self-care and the power of simple yet effective skincare solutions.
