Just like us, ancient Egyptians had makeup boxes, mirrors, jewelry and hair pieces. Let’s take a peek inside an Egyptian’s vanity set! We’ll also explore why only pharaohs are portrayed with beards, why both men and women wore make up and large black wigs, and various ways you could portray yourselves with the ancient resources available. This is part one of a four part ancient culture series. The other programs are: Fashon and Beauty in Ancient Egypt on 10/14; Decoding Hieroglyphics on 11/8 and Gladiators and Secrets of the Colosseum on 11/15
