Before I began this, I did my own little market research survey. I phoned ten women and asked them to look around their homes and tell me how many lipsticks they owned that had never been worn or worn only once and put aside because they didn’t think the texture, color or shine was flattering. One said none, but that was because she had cleaned her drawers the week before. Each of the others had between three and nine apiece. How many lipsticks do you have that fit this description? How does this happen?
• It can happen because you feel guilty about hanging around a cosmetic counter without making a purchase, and a lipstick seems like the least expensive product to buy.
· It can happen because you are feeling out of sorts and want to buy something, anything, that will make you feel better. A lipstick seems like a small investment in happiness,
• Or it can happen because you genuinely need a lipstick but you don’t know how to shop for the one you want.
• Or you are in a hurry and make a careless purchase.
Even if you never spend more than $3 for a lipstick, it should not be a thoughtless purchase, Women who always wear the right shade with just the perfect amount of gloss didn’t come by this product by accident. If you want your lipstick to look like you think it should, you have to spend a little bit of time. It’s worth it. Here Are Qualifies to Look for in a lipstick
