Women Are Swapping Their Boring Water For This Ice Pop Electrolyte Mix!

A recent study shows that out of lip colors named after food, color, emotions, and sex & romance, women by far prefer the food and sex & romance categories. Furthermore, our lipstick color can actually affect our mood–and the way we act–so when we’re wearing, say, Forbidden Burgundy, we feel and behave like we’re engaging in a secret rendezvous–as compared to when we wear the sweet and innocent Baby Doll. We know what we want on our lips for our next date!
