Description

My grandma took one look at this design and sighed while shaking her head, “Oh, honey, you’re glorifying smoking again.”

I tried to explain, “It’s not a cigarette, Grandma. It’s lipstick.”

She wasn’t convinced. “That’s even worse. What message does that send?”

I knew I didn’t have an answer she would like. Maybe it says confidence is a slow burn. Maybe it says beauty is fleeting. Maybe it’s just a cool image. One thing’s for sure; still no word from the Surgeon General about the effects of smoking lipstick.

Wear this, and breathe easy.
