Description

Did you know that a Roman woman was executed for selling poisonous lipstick that women kissed their husbands to death with? Throughout history, people have turned to strange and often unappealing make-up in a quest for beauty. From geishas to Cleopatra and Elizabeth I to radium teeth, this book uses fascinating facts and stories to help children understand the historical, commercial and social aspects of weird and wonderful make-up.
