Although its creation may be even older if you take into account the pigments used by the Egyptian and Greek cultures, lipstick as we know it is completing its first century and continues to be valid as a complex symbol of femininity.
Is there any woman who does not carry a lipstick in her purse? It may be, although it is undeniable that this element is the symbol of feminine beauty and a pop culture icon. Lipstick turns 100 years old and remains the best-selling makeup product with nearly 1,000 million units worldwide.
The history of lipstick may even be older if you take into account the primary makeup of women in antiquity. In part of Egypt, some natural pigments served as bases for today's makeup. Waxes were fused to give certain colors that were used on the eyes and mouth, but which in principle were only allowed for the aristocratic social class.

In Greece, on the other hand, women painted their lips to indicate that they were prostitutes, while in Rome it was done by high-class ladies.
Ancient pharaohs and kings also wore makeup, although this fact was far from being a matter of vanity, for them makeup was related to warding off spirits and with medicinal properties. For example, they attributed properties to remove the evil eye or to represent the strength of their ancestors.
But the revolution would come in 1915 at the hands of the American manufacturer Maurice Levy. With the idea of facilitating application and removing the cumbersome process of needing a brush –which paradoxically is now back in fashion-, Levy and other manufacturers thought that the solution was a simpler and more hygienic presentation.
After many attempts, Levy created a stick-shaped balm, initially a bit unstable, but which later became the product we see today. In short, he devised a lipstick attached to a platform -which slid as the lipstick wore down- and which was inside a metal tube with a cap. In this way, the stick became reusable.
Voila, something so simple continues to be today the ultimate product and a complex symbol of femininity. Loved by the majority, but scrutinized by the most radical who label it an oppressive, sexist, provocative, and tremendously sexual object, lipstick however continues to hold its place in the beauty market.
"Lipstick is perceived as a consumer object and personal grooming accepted in an environment where modernity is desired and professional success predominates as a life goal (…) But we must not forget the primary function of makeup, and that is to create a visual illusion.
It temporarily modifies the face and, therefore, the way its users present themselves to others", as described by a study from the Catholic University of Peru called 'Lipstick: identity, presentation and experiences of femininity'.
-Passion red-
This research also suggests that certain colors accentuate these sexist practices. The color red of the lips has always had an eminently sexual connotation.
"The elements that identify femininity can be underestimated, but they contain discourses and knowledge that tell us about what it means for society not only to be a woman, but to reach a certain ideal image. The cosmetics industry plays with those symbolic values,” the text indicates.
The union of makeup and advertising has probably given birth to one of the strongest mass propagation weapons of all time. From magazines, media, and now social networks, the ideal of perfection, of fashion, of trend, the ideal of being a woman, man, child, homosexual, is enhanced with constant presentations of models of that life.
Lipstick has played an important role in key moments in history. Apart from also being an element for theater, for example, it was a product marketed by Elisabeth Arden during World War II in a campaign called "The campaign as a duty" to try to lower the tone of the crisis the world was experiencing.
