In the Dark Ages, red lips were seen as a sign of commingling with the devil.
The first known red lipsticks were made by crushing gemstones and wearing them on the lips in Mesopotamia over 5,000 years ago.
In Ancient Greece, prostitutes were required by law to sport red lip pigment, lest they be confused for a respectable woman of the upper class. Ancient Greek lipstick was made from a combination of red dye, sheep sweat, and crocodile droppings.
In Egypt was created by crushing red rocks or gemstones and white lead into a powder and was worn by both women and men. Ancient Egyptians wore red lipstick in order to symbolise aristocracy, power, strength, and social status.
