Remember, it is not only what you will be taught that is important. The experience and credentials of your instructor and photographer are paramount.
he first archaelogical evidence, dated from 4,000 BC, of cosmetic usage was found in ancient Egypt where excavated tombs revealed great numbers of unguent jars. Due to the hot, drying climate both men and women used unguent, a substance which softened the skin, prevented burning in the sun and limited damage from the sandy winds.
Ancient Egyptians believed makeup did more than just enhance their natural features. They believed their elaborate eye make up could ward off evil spirits and improve the sight; even the poor wore eye make-up.
The favourite eye make up colours of Egyptian women were black and green.
They decorated their eyes by applying dark green to the under lid and using kohl to outline the eyes, creating that alluring almond-eye look. Kohl is made up of lead, copper, burned almonds, soot, and other ingredients including galena (which has disinfectant qualitites).
Kohl shielded the eyes against the sun and acted as a deterrant to flies. Ancient Egyptian Physicians prescribed the use of kohl against eye disease
The green coloring was acheived by crushing malachite, a copper ore that has a vibrant green color.
To Kohl or Not to Kohl?
History of Makeup - Lipstick in Egypt
Ancient Egyptians used a type of rouge to stain their lips and cheeks.
To create this staining effect they squeezed out purple-red colour from iodine and bromine. Unfortunately, this combination of deadly ingredients led to serious diseases and came to be known as ‘the kiss of death’.
According to some sources, Cleopatra’s lipstick was made of carmine beetles and ant’s eggs. When worked in a pestle, the carmine beetles gave a strong red colour and the ant’s eggs provided the base ingredient. read with fascination that the ancients used fish scales to give the shimmer to their lipstick. Imagine kissing lips coated in fish scales … Yuk!
History of Makeup - Colours of the Ancient Egyptians
The red coloring in makeup was achieved by using red ochre. Ochre has been used since prehistoric times and is a pigment made from naturally tinted clay - hydrated iron oxide.
Henna, a dye obtained from the leaves and shoots of the henna shrub and native to parts of Africa, was used to paint their nails and color their hair. The colour and condition of nails have long been an indication of social status. Henna was also used as a healing plant and for cleansing and cooling the skin.
Although no self-respecting Egyptian would leave home without it, makeup has not always held an accepted place in society and has travelled a roller coaster ride to present day acceptance.
What Platus said about Makeup
In 254-184 BC, Platus, a Roman philosopher, wrote, "A woman without paint is like food without salt."
By the middle of the 1st century AD, Romans widely used cosmetics. Kohl was used for darkening eyelashes and eyelids, chalk was used for whitening the complexion, and rouge was worn on the cheek. Depilatories were used and pumice was used for cleaning the teeth.
More facts I found fascinating in the history of makeup was that Persian women used henna dyes to stain their hair and faces with the belief that these dyes enabled them to summon the majesty of the earth.
In Greco-Roman society, women wore white lead and chalk on their faces.
During the European Middle Ages, pale skin was a sign of wealth. Women sought drastic measures to achieve that look by bleeding themselves.
During the Italian Renaissance, lead paint was used to lighten the face, which was very damaging to the wearer. Aqua Toffana was a popular face powder made from arsenic.
The history of makeup shows the most dangerous beauty 'aids' were white lead and mercury.
These not only eventually ruined the skin but also caused hair loss, stomach problems, the shakes, and could even cause death.
Although these dangers became known, the majority of women continued to use these deadly whiteners.
