has been recognized for its luxurious and beautifying properties. Historians
have long maintained that Cleopatra used pure gold as a tool to maintain
youthful skin by reportedly sleeping in a gold mask every night. In ancient Rome,
gold salves were used for the treatment of a variety of skin problems. In
ancient Chinese medicine gold was a key to youth, as the queen of the Ch’ing
dynasty used a gold massage roller on her face every day. Egyptians believed the healing powers of gold could
cure all manner of physical, mental and spiritual aliments. The application of
gold compounds to medicine, called chrysotherapy, reduces inflammation
beneficial in the treatment of a variety of diseases, but this therapy often
causes adverse gold-related skin reactions.
