That was just one of the makeup product from Japan, Kate. Kate is one of the product series from Kanebo

Kate's latest makeup series is about gold. Makeup that will gives you goldish look...

However, it is not the first time people came up with the idea of golden makeup. The first goldish make up was made famous by a very beautiful woman... 5,000 years ago.

It was Cleopatra from ancient Egypt....

Not an actual Cleopatra but original beauty certified by Julius Caesar as her lover and, later, Marc Antony

Yes, for your info, cosmetic product is not an industrial revolution product but it has been a woman's best friend to attract men since very very very long time ago. By the time Queen Cleopatra came to power in the 1st century BC, Egyptian women had at their disposal a whole rainbow of cosmetics, all of which were made from rocks, minerals, and plants in the region. 

So now goldish makeups are back in the game , Kate by Kanebo introduces their latest 2013 product: Goldish Eyes
