Longlasting lipstick: you ain't seen nothing yet. Grannymar tells us how it's done

One of our favourite bloggers, Grannymar, posted during the week about how long she's made her current lippie last for. It was on the go for ages and when she got to the end of the tube, like any sensible lady she cracked it open and sure enough found enough product to keep her going for a while longer.

Lipsticks are like icebergs. You only see the top of them - if you love the shade always use a lipbrush to get right to the end. And when you've done that, crack the case - you'll find even more.

Eventually it was all gone though, and she braved the cosmetic counter to get a new one and confessed how long it had been since she got her last lippie.
