Make up: A Brief History...
The history of cosmetics spans at least 6000 years of human history, and almost every society on earth.
Archaeological evidence of cosmetics dates at least from ancient Egypt and Greece.
According to one source, early major developments include the use of castor oil in ancient Egypt as a protective balm and skin creams made of beeswax, olive oil, and rosewater described by the Romans.
The Ancient Greeks also used cosmetics. Cosmetics are mentioned in the Old Testament—2 Kings 9:30 where Jezebel painted her eyelids—approximately 840 BC—and the book of Esther describes various beauty treatments as well. Cosmetics were also used in ancient Rome.
Africa
The use of cosmetics in Ancient Egypt is well documented. kohl and henna have their roots in north Africa. Remedies to treat wrinkles were recorded at the time of Thutmosis III, containing such ingredients as gum of frankincense and fresh moringa. For scars and burns, a special ointment was made of red ochre, kohl, and sycamore juice. An alternative treatment was a poultice of carob grounds and honey, or an ointment made of frankincense and honey. To improve breath the ancient Africans chewed herbs, frankincense, or licorice root stick, which is still in use today. Jars of what could be compared with 'setting lotion' have been found to contain a mixture of beeswax and resin. These doubled as remedies for problems such as baldness and greying hair.
Middle East

Cosmetics were used in Persia and what is today the Middle East from ancient periods.
After Arab tribes converted to Islam and conquered those areas, in some areas cosmetics were only restricted if they were to disguise the real look in order to mislead or cause uncontrolled desire.
In Islamic law, there is no prohibition on wearing cosmetics, but there are requirements as stated above, and that the cosmetics must not be made of harmful substances as to harm one's body.
An early teacher was Abu al-Qssum al-Zahrawi, or Abulcasis, who wrote the 24-volume medical encyclopedia Al-Tasrif.. A chapter of the 19th volume was dedicated to cosmetics. As the treatise was translated into Latin, the cosmetic chapter was used in the West. Al-Zahrawi considered cosmetics a branch of medicine, which he called "Medicine of Beauty" (Adwiyat al-Zinah). He deals with perfumes, scented aromatics and incense. There were perfumed stocks rolled and pressed in special moulds, perhaps the earliest antecedents of present-day lipsticks and solid deodorants. He also used oily substances called Adhan for medication and beautification.

Chinese people began to stain their fingernails with gum arabic, gelatin, beeswax and egg from around 3000 BCE.[
The colors used represented social class: Chou dynasty royals wore gold and silver; later royals wore black or red. The lower classes were forbidden to wear bright colors on their nails.
Flowers play an important decorative role in China. Legend has it that once on the 7th day of the 1st lunar month, while Princess Shouyang (壽陽公主), daughter of Emperor Wu of Liu Song (劉宋武帝), was resting under the eaves of Hanzhang Palace near the plum trees after wandering in the gardens, a plum blossom drifted down onto her fair face, leaving a floral imprint on her forehead that enhanced her beauty further.
The court ladies were said to be so impressed, that they started decorating their own foreheads with a small delicate plum blossom design.
This is also the mythical origin of the floral fashion, meihua zhuang (梅花妝; literally "plum blossom makeup"), that originated in the Southern Dynasties (420–589) and became popular amongst ladies in the Tang (618–907) and Song (960–1279) dynasties.
Japan

In Japan, geisha wore lipstick made of crushed safflower petals to paint the eyebrows and edges of the eyes as well as the lips, and sticks of bintsuke wax, a softer version of the sumo wrestlers' hair wax, were used by geisha as a makeup base.Rice powder colors the face and back; rouge contours the eye socket and defines the nose.Ohaguro (black paint) colours the teeth for the ceremony, called Erikae, when maiko (apprentice geisha) graduate and become independent. The geisha would also sometimes use bird droppings to compile a lighter color.
Europe

In the Middle Ages it was thought sinful and immoral to wear makeup by Church leaders, but many women still adopted the fad. From the Renaissance up until the 20th century the lower classes had to work outside, in agricultural jobs and the typically light-colored European's skin was darkened by exposure to the sun. The higher a person was in status, the more leisure time he or she had to spend indoors, which kept their skin pale. Thus, the highest class of European society were pale resulting in European men and mostly women attempting to lighten their skin directly, or using white powder on their skin to look more aristocratic.
A variety of products were used, including white lead paint which also may have contained arsenic, which also poisoned women and killed many. Queen Elizabeth I of England was one well-known user of white lead, with which she created a look known as "the Mask of Youth". Portraits of the queen by Nicholas Hilliard from later in her reign are illustrative of her influential style.
Pale faces were a trend during the European Middle Ages. 16th century women would bleed themselves to achieve pale skin. Spanish prostitutes wore pink makeup to contract pale skin. 13th century Italian women wore red lipstick to show that they were upperclass.

Super Skin Concentrate by Liz Earle
The intense, aromatic blend of 100% pure plant oils in this rich, rebalancing night-time treat is suitable for all skin types. It helps to soften dry or mature skin and balance combination or oily skin.
Use at night after cleansing and toning (but before moisturising).
Naturally active ingredients include softening argan and organic rosehip oils, soothing neroli, lavender and chamomile essential oils plus antioxidant natural source vitamin E.
Hazelnut Oil (Corylus avellana)
In folklore the hazel tree is considered to have magical powers. The tree is
valued for its wood, twigs and nuts. Hazelnut oil is made from pressed hazelnut
kernels. This light oil is used in aromatherapy massage and is said to be easily
absorbed by the skin leaving it soft and smooth.
Lavender Essential Oil (Lavandula angustifolia)
This comforting, calming oil has been widely used since the late 16th
Century. More recently research has shown the benefits of this versatile oil to
help induce a restful night’s sleep. We use a high altitude lavender from the
Mount Ventoux area of France for its wonderful calming aroma. Neroli Essential Oil (Citrus aurantium v.
amara) Also known as bitter orange oil, this floral scented oil comes from orange
blossoms and is widely used in eau de cologne and perfume. Neroli oil has
uplifting and restorative properties. For this reason aromatherapists use it to
help treat depression, anxiety and insomnia.
Avocado Oil (Persea gratissima) The flesh of the avocado contains nearly 50% plant oil. Highly nutritious,
it is a good source of vitamin E, magnesium and linoleic acid, an essential
fatty acid and leaves the skin smooth and soft.
Vitamin E (Tocopherol)
This antioxidant helps protect skin against free radical damage caused by
pollution and the sun’s radiation. We only use premium natural-source vitamin E
which is up to three times more potent than the synthetic variety.
Rosehip Oil (Rosa rubiginosa)
This oil is produced from the seeds contained within striking red rosehips.
Considered a luxurious oil rosehip seed oil is a good source of essential fatty
acids which help lock moisture onto the skin.
Argan Oil (Argania spinosa)
Known as the ‘Gold of Morocco’ this rich, smoothing emollient is extracted
from the fruit of the argan tree and has been used for centuries by Moroccan
women to help moisturise and revitalise the skin. Argan oil is naturally rich in
essential fatty acids and vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps protect the
skin. <<<<<< BEST THING EVER!!!!)
Chamomile Essential Oil/Extract (Anthemis
nobilis)
This herb takes its name from the Greek kamai
The intense, aromatic blend of 100% pure plant oils in this rich, rebalancing night-time treat is suitable for all skin types. It helps to soften dry or mature skin and balance combination or oily skin.
Use at night after cleansing and toning (but before moisturising).
