So this just happened…
Unsolicited life tip: Do not keep your lipsticks in your pocket unless you want to sentence them to specific death.
I’m wondering if there’s such a thing as “makeup Mercury in retrograde?” Or am I just cursed to never have one more tube of velvet Teddy again? since this is the second tube of MAC velvet Teddy I’ve mangled in less than a week!

First there was the tube — which by the way, I’M NOT going to utilize — that fell in my toilet. I tossed it out as well as reordered a tube with the LE packaging from the MAC site. Side note: Breathing an interior sigh of relief *HERE*.
Anyway, yeah, that tube in the top pic was the backup I kept on hand for unforeseen velvet Teddy emergencies (a legitimate fear), however it’s not in working order anymore since I put it in the pocket of my high-rise mom denim last week as well as failed to remember about it, only to keep in mind when I discovered it in the washer, totally soaked, after I’d just completed a load.
On the bright site, say thanks to goodness it didn’t open while it was tumbling amidst the suds, or even worse, make its method into the dryer. as well as additional special thanks to the laundry goddesses for enabling me to discover it, since I was washing, like, 100 pounds of laundry (seriously, #momlife), as well as I might have just as quickly missed it.

Still, though, who destroys two tubes of the exact same precise lipstick shade in one week? This girl.
I’ve come to recognize that the typical denominator in both of these circumstances is that I’ve been putting lipstick in my pants pockets lately, which is something I almost never do.
SERIOUSLY, NO MORE!
I usually put lipstick tubes in my handbag or my Kate Spade wristlet, however I assumption I’ve been running around like a poultry with its head cut off lately, so my pockets have been the (sadly unfortunate) receptacle of choice. Apparently, this has not been one of my biggest of ideas, since I CANNOT keep LIPSTICKS to life WHEN I put THEM IN THERE.
So, that’s it… I’m no longer enabled to bring lipstick in my pocket. Not now, not ever.

I mean, you might stick them in your pocket if 1) you have a much better memory than I do, as well as 2) have lightning reflexes that would enable you to catch a tube before it falls into the toilet, however I am no longer officially enabled to do that. No more!
