Lipstick is a thing without which no woman can be thought of. In fact, no woman can go without lipstick. I bet almost every woman carries lipstick in their purses. I just remember a quote from Laura Wasser, that

Today, there exist tons of shades of lipstick. While the masses are happy with a few of them, tycoons want almost all. And, while the commons only concern about the shades, the affluent focus on luxury and quality along with the pigments.
 
So, considering the needs of the rich, the popular brands always try to produce lipsticks that would match their status.

Such a lipstick is the H. couture beauty diamond lipstick that I am going to explore today.
 
However, before getting into the main discussion, how about having some idea about the history of lipsticks?
 

A Brief History of Lipstick:

 

Ancient era:

 
The idea of wearing lipstick had come from Ancient Sumerian civilization that invented lipstick almost 5,000 years ago. At that time, they used to produce color from natural sources, like gemstones, bugs, ochre, fruits, etc.
 
Ancient Egyptians used to wear lipstick to mark their high social status. In Ancient Greece, lip paint was banned among prostitutes. Only the upper class had the privilege to color their lips.
 

Middle age- Modern age:

 
In Medieval England, applying any kind of cosmetics was prohibited by the Church. Only prostitutes were allowed to color their lips.
 
Later, during the period of Queen Elizabeth I in the 16th century, putting on lip colors gained popularity among the upper-class ladies and actors who performed on the stages. But this time, it was restricted to the upper-class societies only.
 
Again, throughout the 19th century, wearing cosmetics was not acceptable among respectable ladies of Britain. It was only associated with actors and prostitutes. However, in England lipstick had been considered acceptable among all classes of people by 1921.
 
In the late 19th century America, women were only allowed to wear make-up at home. But actresses could get away with it, and it was the famous actress Sarah Bernhardt who was first spotted wearing lipstick and blusher in public. However, wearing lipstick and cosmetics had been made acceptable in America by 1912.
 
Lipsticks had been produced commercially for the first time in 1884 by the French cosmetic company Guerlain.
 

Lipstick container:

 
Earlier, lipsticks had to apply with brushes; they did not come in tubes. In 1915, Maurice Levy launched the first cylinder metal lipstick containers that resembled bullets.

And, the swivel-up tube lipstick that we see today was made by James Bruce Mason Jr. in 1923.

Lipstick Shades:

 
Earlier, around the 1920s, dark red or brown shade lipsticks were quite popular among the ladies.
 
Later, in the early 1930s, Elizabeth Arden started introducing a variety of lipstick colors. Subsequently, over time so many innovations have occurred in the realm of lipstick, and so many shades have been introduced.
