Crushed gemstones adorned not just their lips, but also their eyes and face. Lipsticks were also popular in ancient China, where beeswax was used, and in Ancient Greece, when courtesans put berry-derived colours on their lips.

Also, if you have a wedding to attend, this listicle is ideally for you! Take a look at the perfect lipstick shade to match with your gorgeous and elegant ensembles as you get ready for your or someone else's big day!

A light touch of bronzer on the cheeks will add warmth to your face. This shade goes well with outfits in warm tones like beige, caramel, or olive green.

Passionate:

A bold and vibrant red, 'Passionate' demands attention. Pair it with a classic winged eyeliner and dramatic mascara to create a glamorous retro look.
