alexis - stormsisters lipstick

alexis - stormsisters lipstick

Alexis  -  classic cool red creme by StormSister Spatique is a bold and beautiful color that exudes confidence and strength. This is one of the lipsticks from the Stormsisters collection, which are all named after inspiring women. The lipsticks are ethically sourced, vegan, gluten-free and manufactured in the US (Minnesota), so you can trust the quality and safety of the product. I've always believed that a lipstick is an accessory, so don't be afraid to pick a color that reflects your style and personality, rather than following archaic rules of color-matching skin tone or hair color.
