Lip Service

 
2010-05-29

It is often said that the length of your hem defines your financial status, and your sense of self. But who knew that the colour and the way you apply lipstick can define who you are in a big way.

 
 

There is an interesting connection between your emotions of the moment, personality and the shape of your lips post application of lipstick. In fact chairman of cosmetic biggie Estee Lauder, Leonard Lauder coined a term called Lipstick Indicator to define the phenomenon of increased sales of lipsticks during tough times whether economic or social. Moreover psychoanalysts explain that for women wearing lipstick is like donning an armour to face the challenges that the world throw at them. Interestingly, lipstick or lip

paint – one of the oldest known cosmetics – has been through major controversies over the ages. But by the time we hit 20th century wearing lipstick became a symbol of  power and self expression for women.

 

Full Mouth

 

If you draw a full mouth with symmetrical curves it means you are a self-assured woman who has a strong sense of identity, and responsibility. You are capable of filling roles traditionally occupied by males. For you your lipstick is symbol of strength without letting your inner thoughts out. Wear a crimson or vermillion shade for most impact.

 

Square Lips

 

You like to draw your lips with square edges and a defined ‘V’ on the upper lip; then you are a perfectionist. You can even border on austere, but have the strength to face any challenge. This is the lip of a woman with very mature viewpoint and a steely determination. Soften the severity of this style by picking up a feminine pink hue in silky or creamy texture.

 

 

Heart Shaped Pout

 

If you love to wear this shape, then you are true female at heart, with a flirty, seductive nature. You like to enjoy life to the hilt. You don’t mind pushing the envelope a little extra to state your independence. You are fun loving. To get the shape right draw a little inside of your natural lip line. A rich brown or garnet red are perfect hues for you.

 

Voluptuous Lips

 

If you draw your mouth by extending the lip line a little beyond your natural shape and filling in with a rich colour then you love all things that stimulate your senses. You are attracted to sensory pleasures, and often have a sensual mien. You are feminine, yet have a cool self confidence in your abilities. But you might often be torn in conflict over opposing emotions. Enhance your femininity by wearing shades like pink red, copper, and earthy pink.
