How many of you, as soon as the country has been declared entirely red zone, have put the tricks in a locker of the bathroom and, after 2 months, they have completely removed their existence? It is quite common, in fact, that having to spend whole days at home, maybe in solitude, this gesture so habitual (for some, of course) it was completely ousted from the new routine. And yet, even if it may seem to you absurd, there are some "Reckless" which have been maintained inexorably faithful to this practice. Indeed, in quarantine, theirs has become a real need. But do you know that, perhaps perhaps, they are not all wrong? Let's find out why!
Little reflection needed: it should be emphasized, in fact, that everyone has a very personal way of finding peace in this "hell" e it should not be judged for this. We always preach the value of freedom, how much this must be an unassailable right for all of us, so let everyone be free to feel good as he sees fit and - above all - he succeeds, whether he wants to continue wearing make-up or not, whether he delights in kneading pizzas without stopping, or whether his greatest culinary effort is to put frozen foods to heat in the microwave. In conclusion, Live and let live!

Believe it or not, you may want to look your best just for yourself, without the need for someone to enjoy and bear witness to our beauty. Let us remember, in fact, that we are not desperate for appreciation, sometimes, we just need to hear each other at ease in front of a mirror.
2. Sense of normality
You no longer know what day it is, what month and season we are in, do you still hardly remember your name? Well, everything is normal.

4. Self-care
Let's try change the perspective with which we look at things: the time taken during make-up is time we dedicate to ourselves, certainly not a waste. Especially now, when our mood is fluctuating every day, it is ours sacrosanct right pamper us, giving us those attentions which we often deprive ourselves of and which we tend to ensure only to others.
5. Optimism
Put on makeup it's a beauty ritual….is in a good mood. The cosmetics, in fact, come out various beneficial effects not only aesthetically, but also on the psychological level. The choice to put on makeup every morning after a hearty breakfast provides us the necessary charge to better face our day, even in the middle of a pandemic. Besides give us back the shine lost among worries and distressing news, this morality can be for us an immediate source of optimism.

That may be why, data in hand, in times of crisis red lipsticks are among the best-selling productsthe?
