The Power of Lipstick

There is power in beauty. Power in identifying who we are.  There is power in growing and becoming ourselves. Power in claiming our voices and in identifying our uniqueness. One of the easiest, boldest ways to claim that power is lipstick. Lipstick can literally change your mood, create confidence and give you the push you need to take on the world. Literally, the act of applying lipstick is empowering. With or without makeup, lipstick is life changing. For some, applying lipstick can be nauseating, and taking it off, well that’s a strenuous task on its own. Yet taking 60 seconds to put on and take off your lipstick is totally worth it!

Here are a few amazing reasons why lipstick should be your newest favorite accessory, and some colors to go with it too!

Lipstick can be the boost you need in any negative situation. It’s the perfect finishing touch to any outfit and situation. It can literally lift our spirits, validate us, and spark a light in us we never knew we had. Wearing lipstick is the perfect remedy when we are aren’t feeling like ourselves. Or when we need a little push for the day ahead. Red Lipstick at that has been know to drastically change our mood, and increase our confidence by 1000%! My favorite red is Sephora’s Always Red Lip Stain. It comes in a few different shades and is long lasting!

Lipstick is the confidence you need to kill a presentation or rock an interview. Want to give the I’m powerful and in-charge impression, lipstick is your best friend. Don’t be afraid to wear lipstick on these occasions, its actually a “boss move” to wear lipstick and know yourself. Some of us do our superhero pose in the mirror, and some of us rock lipstick. With it you, suddenly feel more capable than ever. My favorite shade is a BITE’s Nude Rose. Nude is light enough to be subtle, but bold enough to ignite your powerful side.

Rocking lipstick can make you feel sexier than ever. Getting ready for that date? Or maybe your looking for the last minute addition to your outfit? Lipstick is the best way to make you feel even sexier. It has been known to many (some say even proven) to increase estrogen levels and sexual arousal for you and your date. The lure of looking feminine but powerful; A glorious notion. A good deep burgundy, or red if that’s your favorite, is the best date accessory. I have about 6 differnt brands of burgundy. My favorite is Mac’s Dark Side Deep Burgundy Amplified Lipstick. (Insider – every collection Mac releases has a great burgundy color)

Lipstick goes with every outfit. I mean there are a million colors! And they are all reasonably priced. Lipstick is one item I do not mind splurging on. There is never an outfit that lipstick doesn’t go with, and there is never a season where lipstick doesn’t shine!

In all honesty, I wear lipstick for myself! It has literally been my go to in every situation, every outfit and every mood. Even a nude can boost your mood! Lipstick is a source of strength. Never underestimate the power of the perfect shade of lipstick!
