Description

Thanks to everyone who participated in our poll episode! This week's winner: Victorian Makeup. Join us as we delve into the skin care and makeup of the 1800s, from cleaning one's face and nails, to applying makeup and storage. We also cover the many "natural" ingredients in old makeup such as arsenic, mercury, lead and beetles. Stay tuned to the end as we read you some incredulous ads from the time and the "miracles" they claimed to perform!
