        Cosmetics of Cleopatra
        No Expiration
        Seville Adventurer's Guild
        There is pretty much a consensus that Cleopatra VII was the most beautiful woman in the world, right? Well, we'd like you to find out what kind of cosmetics she used. Some kind of solid evidence would be nice. It's kind of a hard request, but try your luck in Alexandria.

                      1. Makeup with a practical use
                      Cosmetics in ancient Egypt had very practical means. You can see people with blue lines painted below their eyes in old murals. Made from elements like antimony and malachite, those lines actually served to shield the eyes from sunlight, disease and from pests. Take a look at my notes on archaeology for more details.

                      2. Makeup of ancient Egypt
                      There were many technological cosmetic innovations during ancient Egypt. The cosmetics served very practical purposes. The scented ointments have proven medical results as well. Cleopatra VII was known to use these cosmetics often. She also used perfumed oils regularly.

                      3. Makeup of Cleopatra
                      Cleopatra used a lot of cosmetics. Since Alexandria was the capitol back then, there should be many relics in the shrines in the area. Although they are now mosques, it should be worth looking into. We should start our search inside from the left side.
