Over the holidays, Offspring the First asked to visit the ginormous beauty supply store while she and Herself were out running errands. So off they went. Such an intimidating place, full of approximately eight bazillion products in thousands of shades and scents, many with purposes that were unknown or incomprehensible to Herself. She'd rather visit an automobile parts store; she has a greater chance of understanding the bits and pieces there.
One of the most perplexing items: the $50 lipstick. Why so much? Is it made from unicorn tears? Does the color come from flower petals crushed under the heels of fairies? Is it guaranteed to make one's mouth look inescapably alluring? Will it bring fortune and fame? Or inspire kisses by the wealthy and fabulous? And who purchases such an item?
The box says it all: The Lipstick Queen.
