When makeup can kill: Giulia Tofana

[Paul Ferguson]

"Some called her a serial murderer and others called her a seductive assassin, but the truth was far more sinister...If poison is truly a woman's weapon, no one has wielded it like Giulia Tofana - the lady who was none other than the mother of Renaissance Italy's most effective and traceless poison 'Aqua Tofana'. The poison was famously used by wives looking to discreetly off their husbands, mostly for the purpose of escaping dangerous and abusive marriages."
