When did people start wearing makeup?

Moment Of Um

About this episode

Colored eyeshadow, glossy lipstick, rosy blush – people use all sorts of makeup to change how they look. But when did we start using makeup? And how has it changed over time? We asked archaeologist and Brains On producer Anna Goldfield to help us find the answer. Got a question that’s making you blush? Send it to us at BrainsOn.org/contact, and we’ll help you face the answer! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
