I had a glass of wine in me, and was feeling a bit reckless. I only had plain lip balm on me, and suddenly/tipsily decided that my lip color needed to be fixed RIGHT NOW (I don’t like the dark “natural lip liner” on my lips). Closest shop to me was Innisfree. I usually only purchase after way too much research, and looking up ALL THE COLOR SWATCHES. But after a glass of wine…?
