Color yourself, find the right shade, and learn how to express yourself by exploring different types of lipsticks that can multiply your appearance and even make you feel sexier.
Lipstick has a rich history dating back to early civilization, when men and women applied lips for aesthetic and medicinal purposes. The Sumer were the first to wear lipstick, made from substances such as fruit, henna, clay rust and insects. Mesopotamian women, on the other hand, colored and glittered their lips with precious, ground-up jewelry.
The ancient Egyptians are thought to have been the first lipstick lovers because they created hues from purple to black. They use carmine dyes and harmful substances such as lead.
In the Greek empire, prostitutes had to wear dark lips, which in the Middle Ages were associated with witchcraft, witchcraft, and Satanic worship.
Queen Elizabeth made lipstick popular again in 16th-century England, but even three centuries later it was only used by actors and prostitutes. After Maurice Levy invented lipstick in a cylindrical container in 1915, it became a recognized cosmetic again in 1920.
