New trend!!!!! People applied lead on faces to look ‘White
If you think that fashion is getting insane nowadays, then you might want to look at ancient Greece. Where the people applied lead to their face to look hip and white.
You read that right… Greek people used to apply lead to their faces to lighten their complexion and improve the color / texture of the skin. Since lead caused skin ruptures (and occasional madness), the only way to not look like walking dead was to put more lead on your skin when the side effects surfaced. Think inception ancient Rome style.
