Chanel Aqualumiere Gloss in Vanilla
There’s nothing particularly dazzling about lips bathed in liquid gloss. I can hoard all the cheap drugstore-variety products for my pleasure. I used to think lip gloss was a dispensable thing. Oftentimes, it barely lasts because I’m oblivious and can’t figure out where it is or …
