Lip stain, a beauty product widely used today, has unexpectedly ancient origins. In fact, the history of colored lips can be traced back to ancient civilizations. Egyptian queen Cleopatra, known for her beauty and elegance, is said to have stained her lips using crushed beetles and ants. The deep red carnation was a symbol of her formidable power and status. Meanwhile, in the Indus Valley Civilization, women would decorate their lips with a lip stain made from a paste of henna. However, the process of making lip stain was not always so glamorous. In the 16th century during Queen Elizabeth I's reign, women would use a mixture of cochineal, sandalwood or brazilwood mixed with wax or grease to achieve the desired red hue. This homemade lip stain recipe is a nod to those historical beauty practices, using beetroot powder instead of crushed beetles or henna, of course. The fun fact is, the natural ingredients used in this recipe not only provide color but also nourish and moisturize the lips.
