About this listen
What was a Roman skincare routine like? Why did the beard make a comeback under Emperor Hadrian? And what did it mean to be ugly in this time?
In this new mini-series, we'll be exploring the beauty standards - and ideas of ugliness - throughout time periods in history.
Starting today with Ancient Rome, Kate is joined by historian and author Emma Southon to find out why Romans would have loved the recent bushy eyebrow trend.
