L'OREAL
.
French researchers said yesterday that a chemical analysis of powders found in the tombs of the pharaohs in the period 2000 to 1200 BC showed that some compounds were artificially synthesized and produced for specific purposes in a complicated process.
'Four thousand years ago, cosmetics had therapeutic applications. We only studied eye liners and eye shadows, but we are sure those products had a therapeutic impact on the eyes,' said Patricia Pineau of the cosmetics company L'Oreal in Paris. The powders are preserved at the Louvre Museum in the French capital. Researchers from L'Oreal teamed up with scientists at the Louvre to analyze the makeup samples. Their research was published in the latest edition of the science journal Nature
