Red Lipstick: Beauty Is Defined From Within

By Bernadette Heard

To the women who understand that lipstick is not a mask, but a statement; a declaration of self-love, resilience, and unapologetic beauty. To every Black woman who has ever felt the need to shrink, to soften, or to mute her vibrancy to fit into a world that wasn't built to accommodate her full spectrum of light - this story is for you.

It's for the daughters who see their mothers' strength, the sisters who uplift each other, and the ancestors whose spirits whisper through our veins, reminding us of our inherent power. May you always wear your colors, your crowns, and your confidence with unshakeable grace. May you never let another's limited vision dim the brilliant artistry of your soul.

You are enough, just as you are, in every shade, in every hue, and with every beat of your magnificent heart. Embrace your truth, celebrate your beauty, and let your spirit shine. This is your anthem. This is your reclaiming. This is your love story, written in the boldest of hues.
