Cleopatra's Tanning Elixir
Share
The early sunscreen industry of Ptolemaic Alexandria has decided their sales would soar up if they received Cleopatra VII's royal sponsorship.
All kidding aside, while sunscreen as we know it was invented in 1928, the ancient Greeks are claimed to have used olive oil for the same purpose whereas the Egyptians used myrrh or jasmine. I have no idea if those would actually work though.
