Lipstick is not only a cosmetic product it is a fashion accessory that most women just can't do without. Lipstick has been the one cosmetic staple that most women have relied on. This article will outline a few things about lipstick and will help you select the right lipstick for you.

It's not uncommon for a woman to put on lipstick before anything else and in the case of being in a hurry many women forgo mascara or blush and reach for their lipstick.

Although the term lipstick clearly means a cosmetic that is applied to the lips, there are several different types of lipsticks available for purchase. Each woman has her own unique preference when it comes to the different types of lipsticks and which one suits her best.

One common ingredient found in many different types of lipsticks is a moisturizer. This is important because lips can often become dried out because of the weather or the lack of humidity in a building. Incorporating a moistening agent into lipstick allows the woman to wear it all day without worry that her lips will become dry or chapped.

Another important ingredient in many different types of lipsticks is sunscreen. As much damage as the sun's rays can cause to skin they can cause just as much damage to lips. Therefore it's very important when browsing the cosmetics aisle to choose lipstick that has a sun screen in it. It doesn't change the appearance or feel of the lipstick at all.
