Poppy King, creator of cosmetic brand Lipstick Queen, said “Red lipstick is a source of strength,” and it’s easy to see why she would make such a statement. Red lipstick is often associated with power, sexiness, and confidence. So swipe some on before you head out—you’re a badass who’s gonna take over the world.

Not only will you have a killer stare, it’s also proves you’ve got everything together because nailing a perfect wing on both eyes takes mad skills.
