The Power of Lipstick: From Cleopatra to Elizabeth I

Lipstick has a long and fascinating history, with Cleopatra being known for her eye makeup and Elizabeth I popularizing red lipstick. Lipstick has always been a tool for self-expression, with different shades and finishes evoking different moods. It has the power to transform not only our appearance, but also our confidence and how we feel on the inside. Lipstick has evolved over time, with the invention of liquid matte lipsticks and the current trend of bold lip colors.
