100 AD 

People in Rome would put barley flour and butter on their pimples, while also putting sheep fat and blood on their fingernails as polish. Some men even dyed their hair blonde.


1300 AD

Dyed red hair is in fashion in Elizabethan England, while woman are also wearing egg whites over their faces to create the look of a paler complexion.


1500 - 1600 AD
