From Make Up Then to Now

From Make-Up Then to Now

Summary:
Make-up has been made from many different things from then like copper, lead ore, that the ancient Egyptians used to create the worlds first cosmetics to now using different chemical and acids. Scientist now has created make-up that can make your eyes look different colors, to hiding pores, and smoothing out complexions. “Over the centuries, women used burnt matches to darken their eyes, berries to stain their lips and young boys' urine to fade their freckles.” Women through out history have put their health at risk with some of the different things they have tried to use for make-up.
Connection:
From century to century make-up has change from the natural not much make-up to heavy and dark make-up. Make-up can be worn many different ways and help people look better or some people could wear the wrong kind of make-up and look worst. Now days the government is strict on what they can use to make these cosmetics because some things that they use to put in it can harm or irritate your skin. Also make-up these days is made more of different colors to help you find the right color for yourself and skin tones. Who knows if make up is going to go more drastic than it already is or could it tone down and go back to the more natural look.
