This is such an important distinction; it enhances your features as opposed to obscuring it. I love red-lipstick but I never knew the WWII history. Thank sso much for sharing this story🌷

Colouring your lips in red rouge will draw people’s attention to you, especially your mouth and the empowering thing about it is, unlike other cosmetics, which are used by people to correct or camouflage something we don’t like about ourselves, red lipstick is all about putting the spotlight on yourself.
