About Lipstick

Throughout history, initially using plants, minerals or whatever was available the human race has decorated its faces.

From the Middle Ages to the start of the 1900's colour added to your lips was seen to signify class, although heavily applied makeup was considered to be unacceptable. Before the end of the 1900's most, if not all, lip colour was produced within the home. Following the invention in 1915 by Maurice Levy of a metal container similar to those used today however, lipstick started to be mass produced.

Always popular, lipstick has expanded over the years and now encompasses lip gloss, lip liner and lip balm. Many advances in lipstick technology have seen additional ingredients including Vitamin C and Aloe Vera, to name but two, added to provide moisturising lipsticks designed to be easier to apply and stay on longer.

Many economists even talk about a "lipstick effect" developing in recessions as women, still looking to treat themselves despite tightening budgets, turn to lipstick. Revlons launch, to make the most of this effect, during the 1934 recession saw it grow into a multi million dollar company within 6 years.
