The earliest records of the use of gold for medicinal and healing purposes come from Alexandria, Egypt. Over 5,000 years ago, the Egyptians ingested gold for mental, bodily and spiritual purification. The ancients believed that gold in the body worked by stimulating the life force and raising the level of vibration on all levels.
The Alchemists of Alexandria developed an "elixir" made of liquid gold. They believed that gold was a mystical metal that represented the perfection of matter, and that its presence in the body would enliven, rejuvenate, and cure a multitude of diseases as well as restore youth and perfect health.
As many as 4,500 years ago, the Egyptians used gold in dentistry. Remarkable examples of its early use have been found by modern archaeologists. Still in favor today as an ideal material for dental work, approximately 13 tons of gold are used each year for crowns, bridges, inlays and dentures. Gold is ideal for these purposes because it is non-toxic, can be shaped easily, and never wears, corrodes or tarnishes.
In medieval Europe, gold-coated pills and "gold waters" were extremely popular. Alchemists mixed powdered gold into drinks to "comfort sore limbs," which is one of the earliest references to arthritis.
During the Renaissance, Paracelsus (1493-1541) - who is considered the founder of modern pharmacology - developed many successful medicines from metallic minerals including gold. One of the greatest alchemists/chemists of all time, he founded the school of Iatrochemistry, the chemistry of medicine, which is the forerunner of pharmacology.
In the 1900s, surgeons would often implant a gold piece under the skin near an inflamed joint, such as a knee or elbow. As a result, the pain would often subside or cease altogether.
In China, the restorative properties of gold are still honored in rural villages, where peasants cook their rice with a gold coin to replenish the mineral in their bodies, and fancy Chinese restaurants put 24-karat gold-leaf in their food preparations.

Hia Everyone,
First off,. Thanks to all of you who participated in my competition. I was very happy watching all of your videos and the one thing that hit me after each video was that "these people are having fun!". I used to have so much fun in the good old days before being wrapped up in which looks to do instead of doing looks I wanted to do. So you guys inspired me big time to get back on my channel and do what I do best, "Make up is for fun and personality is for life" I want to come up with crazy looks, wedding looks, every day looks and so on :)
Anyway, here are the winners and their channels for you to go check out.

The camera made the lip colour look more red than the Tom Ford visual even though I used the same lip products, but I thought I would still upload it as I really liked the finished look :-) Also, most visuals are heavily photo-shopped so that could be the reason the lips look more purple in the picture. It is definitely not an exact replication of the Violet Blonde visual, just inspired by it. Thank you for watching, Tanya xxx

Bit more of a personal disclaimer :)
I am incredibly lucky that as a makeup artist and beauty guru here on YouTube, I get 99% of my products sent from brands or given to me at press/pr events and launches. Although, if a product I require for a tutorial is not available as a press sample I will buy it myself. So, some products (the majority) I receive at my request from companies and some I purchase myself, but regardless of the origin of the item, it will always be reviewed with the utmost integrity and honesty. I feature products that I would use myself and believe are good, as I call in products that I am pretty sure will do their job effectively and be to my liking, luckily the majority of the time they do live up to my expectations. I tend not to feature products I have been sent that I do not like as I feel there is no point in giving companies a bad name and if the product is no good I would not wish to use it in a tutorial. However, if I am using a product for the first time on camera (as I often am) and I do not like it, I will say so. Similarly, if a product is incredibly hyped up but is not of the quality it claims to be, I would be sure to tell you. I pride myself on the fact that viewers of my beauty videos can completely trust my opinion and product recommendations. I am not being compensated for this video. I would only ever accept compensation from a company for reviewing their products if I genuinely wanted to use the product and if there were no rules ie. the product having to have a 100% positive review, as I need to be able to be completely honest with my viewers.
Thank you for reading,
Tanya xxx
