Abstract

Lipstick consumption, as a part of consumption culture, can represent part of the characteristics of consumption society. Through analysis of it, it is found that lipstick is made into an aesthetic abduction and gender bias exclusive to women. The female images in advertisements are based on the aesthetic standards of men. Women are objectified as objects of observation, reflecting the “male gaze” that identifies with the aesthetic standards of men. Women measure their self-worth with lipstick and are self-objectified without knowing themselves. In this regard, the strategies to reduce the objectification of women should start from improving the social environment and improving women’s self-consciousness.
