Lipstick was invented 5,000 years ago in Middle East. Crushed gem stones and fish scales (pearlescent) were blended and used to decorate their lips and eyes. In modern times. In 1912, lipstick represented the suffragettes who took to the streets wearing bright "red" lipstick...as a symbol of equal rights for woman.
