Cleopatra wasn’t an ancient Egyptian. She was a Greek.
This is Wikipedia level information.

No mention of Cleopatra? Cmon dude.
The headline of the article uses a picture of Liz Taylor as Cleopatra, and her picture is used as a comparison to a sarcophagus that Cleopatra was NOT buried in. I clicked on the link before commenting.
Was Cleopatra in ancient Egypt as a colonizer? Sure. Did she use makeup? I’ve never seen a painting of the Greek Cleopatra in Egyptian eye makeup. She shouldn’t have been used in anything related to the culture of ancient Egypt. People who don’t know better will attribute her white skin to ancient Egypt, and we both know that.
