Since the beginning of man's timeline, the issue of beauty has been one to dictate many social concerns. From the caveman era to ancient Egypt to modern day society, physical beauty has endured constant change to its perception; however, one thing that has not changed is the power inherently associated with its presence and the unrelenting pressure to attain such status. From early on, ancient Egyptian and Roman children were ornamented with clothing, jewelry and cosmetics as a way in which to integrate them into their specific social status.
