History of cosmetics : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of cosmetics
The history of cosmetics spans at least 6000 years and is present in almost every society on earth. Some argue that cosmetic body art was the earliest form of ritual in human culture, dating over 100,000 years ago from the African Middle Stone Age. The evidence for this comes in the form of utilised red mineral pigments (red ochre) including crayons associated with the emergence of ''Homo sapiens'' in Africa.〔Power, C. 2010.

The pigments from Pinnacle Point Cave 13B, Western Cape, South Africa. ''Journal of Human Evolution'' 59: 392–411.〕 Archaeological evidence of cosmetics certainly dates from ancient Egypt and Greece. According to one source,〔Günther Schneider, Sven Gohla, Jörg Schreiber, Waltraud Kaden, Uwe Schönrock, Hartmut Schmidt-Lewerkühne, Annegret Kuschel, Xenia Petsitis, Wolfgang Pape, Hellmut Ippen and Walter Diembeck "Skin Cosmetics" in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry 2005, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim. 〕 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.〔Lesley Adkins, Roy A. Adkins, ''Handbook to life in Ancient Greece'', Oxford University Press, 1998〕〔Bruno Burlando, Luisella Verotta, Laura Cornara, and Elisa Bottini-Massa, ''Herbal Principles in Cosmetics'', CRC Press, 2010〕 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, although much of Roman literature suggests that it was frowned upon. It is known that some women in ancient Rome used various substances, including lead-based formulas, to whiten the skin, and kohl was used to line the eyes.〔Olson, Kelly.
