The Return of The Statement Lipstick

 

Cleaning our favorite lipstick has the power to make us feel better. In a recent survey of 784 members of the Byrdie Beauty Collective, 61% said they wear makeup like lipstick to feel more confident. 37% described their makeup application as an act of self-care. And there is other research that supports this line of thinking. According to a study carried out by LVMH, "makeup can be considered a daily routine to reduce negative affects and / or increase positive affects related to self-image and its relationship with the social environment." fashionbeautypalace

This theory has been found to be particularly true throughout the pandemic.

At first, many people cut back on their daily makeup rituals because we no longer had to leave the house every day to go to work or school. Mask warranties have also stifled our ability to wear and publicly display the glossy lip glosses and eye-catching lipsticks that we normally apply. "During the height of the pandemic, I noticed that people were more concerned about skincare and less interested in makeup," said TLB Creative Director Rosco Spears. "It was rare that I saw someone with a bright and striking lip."techgeeksblogger

But over time, there has been a noticeable shift in our pandemic approach to beauty.

Many of us start wanting to put makeup on again, especially lipstick, to help us feel and look good at home. 23% of Byrdie Beauty Collective respondents said they currently wear makeup as frequently as before the pandemic.triotechdigital

“During the pandemic, we truly saw our lip product sales increase, because suddenly everyone could focus on [during virtuality] the job was their face, and a touch of lipstick was an easy way to stand out in Zoom, ”Mented Cosmetics co-adds founder KJ Miller. "A good lippie always puts me in a good mood, and I know a lot of people feel the same way. It can help improve your day and boost your confidence." computertechreviews

Chocolate lips had a big moment in the 90s, sporting all of our favorite beauty icons, from Naomi Campbell to Jennifer Lopez. The warm shade is still causing a stir this season.

Although this fall will be a season to experiment with beauty, there are lip colors that will always be a staple like nude.
