In Elizabethan time, the circulation of the blood was not understood. She was unconscious for long periods before her death, so there are no verified (last Words) Existing art of Her late in her reign shows an unusually Pale complexion that could not alone have been (Cakey) make up. It was by no means a feminine fashion as her ladies-In Waiting did not have this skin tone, therefore logically it was a skin condition, oddly not one censored by the Royal Portrait artists.
