A quick, silly sketch show that pokes fun at influencer culture through history, easy to dip into and chuckle at.

Tagline: What if beauty YouTubers had always existed?
Overview: In ancient Egypt, in the Middle Ages, in occupied Gaul, these "Damsels" share in front of the camera their beauty tutorials which remove make-up from History! A grating glimpse into the condition of women over the centuries.

About: Gender, media, celebrity, identity
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
