Observed on July 29 every year in the United States, and world-wide, this day celebrates the colored cosmetic that defines beauty and femininity in the world of make-up.
To wear the hue through your lipstick and the dear collection doesn’t make you stand out as a fashion-monger always. Rather the bright/radiant/nude and bold tones the personality and moods of the owner.
The enigmatic freshness and the sweet fragrance which hardly can be ignored by anyone around you. To the unversed and to all the Lipstick-lovers out there, American makeup artist Huda Kattan is recognized as the modern-day founder of the day ?
If we dig at the history- the ancient Sumerians and residents of the Indus Valley were the first to explore this beautiful concept. They used to crush gemstones to color their faces and lips.
However, the first discovery of lipsticks ages back 1,000 years ago, with beeswax.
These gained immense popularity in 19th century and the first commercial lipstick, made in France, had deer tallow, beeswax, and castor oil. Not just a beauty product, lipsticks also moisturize and make lips supple and moreover some lipstick formulas also shield lips from harmful UV rays. So don’t hesitate to add some colours to your inner strength.
