Do not ignore mysticism because of mere misunderstanding. Otherwise, you can repeat French academy’s mistake with meteorites. It stated there are no meteorites, as there cannot be stones in the sky. As a result, most precious exhibits were thrown away from European museums.
Beauty treatment is one of knowledge that we received from our ancestry. Firstly make-up application was a part of magic rituals. It was considered, make-up helped in treatment, prevents evil powers from entering human body, protects from dangerous animals, increases physical power. In ancient times make-up was not meant only for women. Men also used it.
Eyes are a window to your soul
Ancient Egyptians painted upper eyelid in blue, and lower – in green. They believed this not only increased sight and provided protection, but also served as preventive measures against blindness. Hindu women still paint eyelids in black to scare away fiends.
We use these magic remedies without knowing of their real potential. Probably, you should try applying eye shadows, mascara or pencil to improve sight or add necessary softness to eyes.
Lipstick mystery
Lip paint’s composition was kept in secret. You know, it had to protect body from evil spirit and prevent poisoned food from coming to mouth.
Orators painted lips in bright color before performance, to add convincingness to their words and attract audience. We still can use this trick before the interview, exam or important conversation.
Magic manicure
Manicure was meant to protect one from emergencies. Middle East women still use henna to apply intricate patterns on their hands. And this is done not only for beauty, but also for protection from fiends.
While doing manicure, our progenitresses imagined a hand with painted nails stretching to things they needed and holding it.
A drop of perfume against fiends
Usage of fragrances, perfumes and essential oils covers the whole period of history we have documentary records about. Egyptians paved their bodies with fragrances generously. They knew secrets of scents like an alphabet. Aromatherapy is still very popular. Various oils, incenses and candles gained unimaginable popularity, not to mention the fact our contemporary prefers having several sorts of scents on his dressing table.
Do you lack courage? Drop geranium oil. Do you feel exhaustion? A drop of brown oil or oil cloves will definitely stir you up. And if you are in the mood to enjoy love pleasures, rub your body with attar of roses.
Hairs are energetic antennas
In Middle Ages head was considered so sacred, that one could not touch it without insulting its owner. Haircut was also connected with various magic rituals. Goth kings could not cut their hair at all, as it would deprive a heir of holiness and was equivalent to refusal from throne.
Magians state you can take everything you want into your head while combing hair. If you want to lose weight, you should sit in front of the mirror and start combing your hair rhythmically looking in your eyes. Imagine you are refusing from cakes, pies and other high-calorie food, start eating wisely and wearing cloth of smaller size. If you repeat this ritual every day, and also add physical exercises and reduce food consumption, you will see miracles happening to you.
It is considered hairs are peculiar energetic antennas helping one to support connection with space. It is noticed, long hair promote development of imagination. Bald spot deprives a person of independent thinking completely.
Do you need other face?
Stand in front of the mirror and concentrate yourself on your face changing, when you apply make-up. While applying make-up, imagine the face you would like to have. Every time you look in the mirror, you should see your new image. And if your friends notice some changes in your appearance, but won’t be able to explain which ones, just smile and keep your secret.
