In 1912, Elizabeth Arden marched down 5th Avenue for equality and handed down red lipstick to women as a sign of solidarity. Today, the brand she created, Elizabeth Arden, apart from many things, encourages women to empower other women around the world by gifting this limited edition lipstick. . These views speak to my heart. This is what LivingNotes stands for, too: empowerment, support, daring to challenge the “standard”, aspiration to create your own reality, to find YOUR balance. Women supporting women is more than just words. We need each other. We thrive together. Together are unstoppable. . Elizabeth Arden gave out red lipsticks as a sign of support while walking the 5th Avenue. 100+ years later, I am going to use the magnificent World Wide Web to do the same. Nominate women who inspire you in comments below! Tell me why. I will read all your stories and I will pick several winners and send out a special package ( which will include red lipstick too!) to both of you. . Let’s spread some love and let’s support each other. Kick off whatever you don’t like in your life and make a change for something you love. It is 100% worth it. . After all, this is what life is about. . #togetherwemarchon #empoweringwomen #inspiration #familyovereverything #oddmolly #elizabetharden (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvcBq5hl0Co/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f10e10hlb950

Reese Witherspoon and Danai Gurira Talk Female Empowerment at UN International Women's Day Event

Reese Witherspoon and Danai Gurira are all about girl power!

The Big Little Lies star and the Black Panther standout sat down with Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, executive director of United Nations Women, during a panel at the UN's headquarters to celebrate International Women’s Day and talk about female empowerment.

Witherspoon began by taking a moment to explain how the Time's Up movement came to be.

“It started out in October with 40 women in a room just talking about this problem and how we were going to deal with it because enough is enough," she explained. "We are no longer going to be harassed, we are no longer going to be mistreated or discriminated against. We are going to create more opportunity for each other."

Gurira also spoke about the women in countries like Liberia who have gone through traumatic experiences and have been left unheard. 

“When I’ve sat in the presence of women and girls that have gone through things that I couldn’t even begin to imagine, all of them said to me no one had ever asked what had happened to them. That really got to me,” Gurira said, tearing up. “At the time I was an extremely broke playwright who had a fundraising party and a friend said he’d match whatever I made, and I was able to pay my New York rent and go.”

“But now I’m in a different position, so now I have to go again, and I have to meet those girls face to face," she continued, adding how we all must lift each other out and speak for those who don't have a voice. 

Additionally, Witherspoon, who serves a storyteller-in-chief for Elizabeth Arden, applauded the cosmetics brand for donating $1 million to the UN Women’s fund today.

Before the event, the A Wrinkle in Time star took to Instagram to share how excited she was to be a part of the panel.

"So excited and honored to be at the @unitednations today on #IWD2018 to talk with activists & leaders about women’s rights! @elizabetharden, #TogetherWeMarchOn @timesupnow#TimesUp @unwomen. Happy International Women’s Day everyone! #internationalwomensday," she captioned her slideshow.

Red lipstick became a symbol of the women’s movement when in 1912 Elizabeth Arden marched down Fifth Avenue handing out red lipstick to the suffragettes as a symbol of solidarity and since then has remained an icon of female power. A campaign is running throughout the month of March continuing EA’s fearless founder’s legacy of supporting and celebrating women’s achievements, encouraging women to support each other by bringing out a Limited Edition red lipstick where 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the UN Women. In Reece Witherspoon, Elizabeth Arden Storyteller-in-chief says” there’s something incredibly powerful about red lipstick” so on that note buy your red lippie this month as a gentle reminder to stand together #togetherwemarchon @elizabethardensa ❤️🌺💄💋👄
