[QUOTE]Originally posted by IronLion: [QB] Roman Women and bleaching: With the coming of the northern slaves from Britain and Germany with their pale skins, the Roman women began to use bleach and white based cosmetics in an attempt to appear to have a lighter skin tone. They also tried bleaching their hair blonde. Possibly again to imitate the pale and classical looks of the northern slaves which seemed to excite the Roman male so much. However, they do not appear to have been too successful with their bleaches, as it has been recorded that they constantly wore wigs, made from the hair of the captured Gaulish women to cover up their own poor growths of hair. Their constant quest for a perfect pale skin also began to take its toll as the cosmetics they used were usually a w=hite lead Jerivative. This had a very poisonous and destructive effect on the skin and sent the ladies scurrying to every seller of appointments and creams in search of an antidote to restore them, at least, to their former looks. http://www.healtheez.com/ancient-roman-baths.htm So Lyinass Why would Albino women need to bleach to look like a slave Albino women? If Romans were Albinos like you, why would they need to bleach their skin and wear wigs, so that they could look like Albino women? Why? Please respond Lyinass, please dont run away! [/QB][/QUOTE]
