EDITORS COMMENTS
A Sticky Business: A Glimpse into the Historical Significance of Lipstick Application (1923) This black-and-white photograph, titled "A Sticky Business," offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical context of makeup and beauty rituals in the early 20th century. The image, taken in 1923, depicts a woman intently applying lipstick in front of a mirror, her reflection captured perfectly in the glass. The scene is set in an elegant, yet cluttered room filled with an array of cosmetics and personal items. The woman's determined expression and the meticulousness with which she applies the lipstick suggest the importance of this beauty routine in her daily life. The lipstick itself, with its distinctive bullet shape and metal casing, is a testament to the evolution of cosmetic technology during this era. The reflection in the mirror also serves as a reminder of the role that self-presentation and vanity played in shaping women's identities during this time. The photograph's title, "A Sticky Business," adds a playful and intriguing dimension to the image. The term "sticky business" was commonly used during the 1920s to refer to romantic entanglements or complicated situations. In this context, the title could be interpreted as a commentary on the power of lipstick to attract attention and create allure. Alternatively, it could be a reference to the physical challenge of applying lipstick without smudging it, a problem that women of the time would have been all too familiar with. Overall, "A Sticky Business" is a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, offering insights into the historical significance of lipstick application and the role it played in shaping women's identities and experiences during the 1920s.
