Queen Elizabeth (1533-1603)

Queen Elizabeth ruled England from 1558 to 1603. She was the daughter of Henry VIII, and was the fifth and last monarch of the Tudor dynasty. She remained unmarried her whole life and for that she earned the nickname ”The Virgin Queen”.
          During the Elizabethan era light hair and pale skin was considered as true beauty. Though Elizabeth had the natural attributes of this ideal, she enhanced and exaggerated the image by using white make-up. This make-up consisted of white lead and vinegar, which unfortunately made it poisonous.
