Spinning Lipstick Vortex Plate

Spinning Lipstick Vortex No.2

My second plate of lipsticks recording more lipsticks for posterity, both vintage and contemporary.

Over the past 4 years I have dedicated a lot of time into researching lipsticks as I feel that they are not only glamorous, but also essential tools of female empowerment and the keys to old memories.
