Although its origins, considering the pigments used by Egyptian and Greek cultures, may be even older, lipstick as we know it dates back to the first century and remains a complex symbol of femininity.

Is there a woman who doesn't have lipstick in her handbag? It's possible, although there's no denying that this item is a symbol of feminine beauty and a pop culture icon. Lipstick is 100 years old and, with almost 1 billion units sold worldwide, remains the best-selling makeup product.

The history of lipstick may be even older if one considers the primary makeup used by women in ancient times. In parts of Egypt, certain natural pigments served as the basis for what we now call makeup. Waxes were blended into specific colors for use on the eyes and lips, but in principle, they were only permitted for the aristocratic social class. (See also: What if women want to wear makeup?)

In Greece, women painted their lips to indicate that they were prostitutes, while in Rome, upper-class ladies did so.

Ancient pharaohs and kings also used makeup, although this was far from a matter of vanity, as they associated makeup with warding off evil spirits and with medicinal properties. For example, they attributed qualities to it to remove the evil eye or to represent the strength of their ancestors.
But the revolution would come in 1915 from the hand of the American manufacturer Maurice Levy. With the idea of ​​simplifying application and eliminating the cumbersome process of needing a brush – which, paradoxically, is fashionable again today – Levy and other manufacturers believed they had found the solution for a simpler and more hygienic presentation.

After many attempts, Levy created a balm in the form of a stick, which was initially somewhat wobbly but later became the product we see today. In short, he found a lipstick that was attached to a platform—which slid off as the lipstick wore down—and was housed in a metal tube with a lid. In this way, the bar became reusable.
Voila, something so simple remains to this day the quintessential product and a complex symbol of femininity. Loved by the majority, but scrutinized by the most radical, who brand it as an oppressive, macho, provocative, and intensely sexual object, lipstick nevertheless remains a staple in the beauty market.
"Lipstick is perceived as an object of consumption and personal care, accepted in an environment where modernity is desired and professional success predominates as a life goal (...). But we must not forget the main function of makeup, which is to create a visual illusion."

It temporarily changes the face and thus the way its users present themselves to others," as described in a study by the Catholic University of Peru entitled "Lipstick: Identity, Presentation and Experiences of Femininity."

-Passion-red-

This research also suggests that certain colors emphasize these macho practices. Red lips have always had a highly sexual connotation.

"The elements that identify femininity may be underestimated, but they contain discourses and knowledge that tell us what it means for society not just to be a woman, but to achieve a certain ideal image. The cosmetics industry plays on these symbolic values," the text states.

The combination of makeup and advertising has probably created one of the most powerful weapons of mass dissemination of all time. From magazines and media outlets to social networks, the ideal of perfection, fashion, and trend—the ideal of being a woman, a man, a child, or a homosexual—is reinforced through constant presentations of models from these lives.

Lipstick has played an important role at key moments in history. It was not only an element of the theater, but also a product that Elizabeth Arden marketed during World War II in a campaign called "The Campaign as Duty" in an attempt to alleviate the global crisis.
