The Right Way to Wear Red Lipstick

“There is a shade of red for every woman”
— Audrey Hepburn

Audrey Hepburn's quote can be interpreted in literal context, after all, red lipstick does come in different hues.

Depending on the geography and time period, the Scarlet pout has been a symbol of many things. A declaration of independence, a sign of seduction, social status, confidence, seeker of attention or a show of wealth.

Red lipstick is synonymous with power and strength, highly seen during women's suffrage movement (decades-long fight to win the right to vote for women in the United States).

In the 20th century, however, people associated red lips with sexual immorality and sacrilegious traits. Perhaps that's because red lipstick carries sexual undertones that make women’s lips stand out and appear sexier.

There is nothing wrong with women wearing red lipstick today if she wants to boost her sexual allure and stand out among her peers.
