Egyptian Activated Carbon And Oats

Cleopatra’s affair with midnight extended far beyond the velvet Egyptian sky. On nights when the sky appeared without company, she would match its blackness by applying activated charcoal all over her face and body and pray to give her skin clarity and her face vitality. As the clouds parted and the moon shone down, the sky would draw toxins, bacteria, dirt and oil from her skin, and grant her the light of the missing stars.
