Lip Crayon Obsession


A while ago when lip crayons came out I wasn’t too sure about them. I was mainly a lipstick person, and didn’t really think much about lip crayons. Fast forward a few months, and now I’m obsessed.

It’s only really a matter of time until I have the whole of the Revlon range really…
