Fun fact: I hate pink lipstick.

Like, even during that phase in childhood when, for the sake of peer pressure and a blind love of all things Barbie, I tried to convince myself that pink could be my favorite color (spoiler alert: it’s not), I could never get onboard with a pink lip—and it was the ’80s, so that’s saying a lot.

That’s not to say I haven’t tried—repeatedly. In fact, I’ve done so right here on this very blog, with varying results (notice how I’m often hiding my lips). But if I’m honest, my heart is never quite in it, and it’s a hurdle I need to get over. So, when Bossy Cosmetics sent me a trio of shades to try from their “Lipstick Lab,” I subverted my natural inclination to grab the red and brown hues, and begrudgingly reached for…the pink. *cringe*
