I wonder what kind of ingredients were in those?

Some makeup has been made with very toxic ingredients. Toxic belladonna was used around the eyes to dilate the pupils.

IIRC, in the 18th Century, French courtiers wore makeup that contained arsenic. Part of the reason (again, if I understand right) was to make the skin more luminous under candle light.

It also can redden the complexion.
