Making lip gloss with a “Lipstick Jungle” star

I escaped from a packed Alice + Olivia presentation to a Spanx event at the Bryant Park Hotel.

More on Spanx later, but I spied Lindsay Price of “Lipstick Jungle” at Alice + Olivia. At that point, I was just another face in the crowd. (See the photo…)
Then, she appeared at Spanx and we were amongst the few people in the spacious room. Soon, we were both sitting at a cosmetics’ station having custom lip glosses made for us. I told her how I had been lucky enough to sit next to her show’s costume designer Dan Lawson at Michael Kors. “I think they have the most fun with me…” she confessed. She meant when it comes to getting dressed. Having seen the show, I would agree with that.
I think the custom-lip gloss blenders from Prescriptives also had the most fun with Lindsay because without any instruction from me, they automatically mixed a hue almost identical to her berry concoction–with berry flavor fragrance to boot! While it’s not necessarily what I would have picked, I’m happy to share the cheery shade with Ms. Price. It’s also so perfectly sheer that it doesn’t matter. You can have a custom shade mixed at any Prescriptives’ an counter, where I may go to have one match the gorgeous red Lindsay was already wearing.
