Red Lipstick

Thursday, December 22nd, 2011

Red lipstick has been part of a woman’s prerogative as far as history can tell. The Egyptians women even took a palette into the after life to look their best, the Japanese Geisha’s applied it to perfection on their porcelain painted faces, theVictorian powdered their faces to enhance the contrast to their crimson mouths stained with poisonous mercuric sulfide and 21st century women including the 1940’s woman maintained the right of a woman to look good under all circumstances and dawned the red lipstick even as they worked long hours in weapons factories to bring their men. The woman of today is no different and there is no doubt that the right red lipstick lifts s a woman feel good and ready to take on all challenges and just have fun!

So why has the red lipstick staged such a big comeback now?

Looking at the 2009 catwalk, and the pervasive influence of the 40’s fashion,  you do expect designers to tap into a woman’s previous right to look striking and stunning under any circumstance. With a recession looming overhead, the red lipstick is the instant booster at an affordable price.  Estee Lauder’s chairman even coined the term lipstick index in 2001, when he noticed that lipstick sales increased after the 9/11 economic downturns.  We are facing an even bigger downturn and boom an instant booster is needed to uplift the female psyche! By the way it’s cheaper than a whole outfit or accessories.

Lipstick Buying Tips

Monday, October 10th, 2011

Buying lipstick is like buying clothes – there is no one style or color that will suit every person. The choice of color and brand are important to coordinate the lipstick with your skin tone and your outfit in order to achieve the look you want to have at the moment. You may wear a different type and color of lipstick to work and another to dress up for a night on the town. This article will provide you with some tips to consider when buying lipstick.

When do you wear lipstick?

Think about how often you have to apply lipstick. If you don’t want to have to run to the powder room to refresh your lips every so often or take out your compact at your desk, then you should look for a lipstick that has long wearing power.

Choosing the right color

The hardest part of buying lipstick, though, is the color. The color may look great in the tube but when you put it on you find that it doesn’t even look as if you are wearing lipstick or the color may make your lips stand out more than you want. You have to consider your skin tone in order to find a color that suits the color of your skin. These are usually grouped as being warm or cool. Those with fair or pink skin fall into the cool category and should look at wines, violets, plums and pinks in choosing a lipstick color. If your skin is dark or tanned then you have a warm skin tone. The best color choices are corals, nudes and browns.
