Lipstick enthusiasts gather around: International Lipstick Day is here! Whether you like lip gloss, lip lacquers, liquid lipstick, lip colour, or lip tint, your day has arrived. A day dedicated to celebrating your appreciation of a classic makeup product, “The Lipstick.” Lipsticks age like fine wines. It is a makeup item that will never go out of style. The demand for amazing lipstick will always be on the rise.
Before 2016, World Lipstick Day was celebrated yearly with only a hazy sense. Huda Kattan, a renowned beauty blogger and businesswoman, was named the official modern-day originator of National Lipstick Day in 2016. All brands and makeup fans throughout the world officially rejoice and celebrate International Lipstick Day every year on July 29th. Many manufacturers seize the opportunity by providing extensive giveaways and bargains on beauty goods for all makeup enthusiasts to enjoy.
The fascinating history of lipsticks spans 5000 years and is riddled with controversies and intrigue. The iconic bold red lipstick, in particular, has sparked debate under several countries’ legislation. Our favourite lipstick has gone from being a symbol of stigma to a symbol of empowerment throughout the voyage. Lipsticks, with their gloss, drama, and controversy, have cemented their place as eternal beauty staples.
From the 1600s through the 1900s, lipsticks were thought to be worn by immoral women. Many countries have outlawed lipstick in the name of women using it to mislead men into marriage. While the reasoning for this restriction could not be more illogical and patriarchal, lipsticks have certainly seen their fair share of controversy. Lipsticks were once connected with witchcraft, with people referring to them as “a kiss of death.” Red lipstick was linked with showgirls, prostitutes, and immoral women.
The blinding rise of patriarchy and constitutions filled with obscene laws against women gave birth to feminism, and lipsticks were there to make their mark to empower women. The renowned Elizabeth Arden golden lipstick tubes were handed out to all the women when Elizabeth Arden marched alongside the suffragists, and they eventually became a symbol of white feminism and the suffragists. When the 19th Amendment Act granted white women the right to vote, it was a half-won war. While women of colour face unique challenges in exercising their civic rights.
