Zinc oxide became widely used as a facial powder, and is still in use\ntoday. Zinc oxide took the place of the deadly arsenic mixture. Zinc oxide\nbecomes widely used as a facial powder, replacing the previously used deadly\nmixtures of lead and copper. One such mixture, Ceruse, made from white lead,\nwas later discovered to be toxic and blamed for physical problems including\nfacial tremors, muscle paralysis. Eye shadows and lip reddeners contained\npoisonous substances such as lead, antimony sulfide, and mercuric sulfide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Belladonna, or deadly nightshade, was used to make one\u2019s eyes sparkle. It was a deadly poison when used in large amounts. Women still used cosmetics, though they hid their uses carefully.\u00a0 They used beeswax on their lashes to make them appear thicker, used kohl on their lashes to darken them.\u00a0 For eyeliner women used burnt matches, when they cooled, they applied the ash to their lids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><em>Method Makeup Academy, Seattle\u2019s Makeup School<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Makeup in the 19th Century Recommended Movies\/Videos: Gone with the Wind (1939) Hysteria (2011) The Age of Innocence (1993) The&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1715","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1715"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1717,"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715\/revisions\/1717"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1715"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/seattlemakeupschool.com\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
