Socialite Spotlight: Keisha Wright

Beauty girl problems – everyone has one and for Swoon creator Keisha Wright, the struggle to get all of the lip gloss out of her favorite lip gloss tubes was beauty enemy number one. A self-proclaimed lip gloss lover, Wright was frustrated by having to unsafely scoop or toss countless tubes of not quite empty lip gloss into the trash each month because the lip gloss wands never reached the bottom portion of the tube – until now. Wright created Swoon – a brand new beauty tool that is part spoon and part applicator – that allows makeup wearers everywhere to finally use every ounce of their lip gloss.

 

“No matter the lip gloss brand, the applicator never reached to the bottom of the tube,” revealed a frustrated Wright. “Even though I couldn’t use them, I would keep every tube that had gloss inside because I hate to waste money.” So she created Swoon, a patent pending universal lip gloss applicator wand that reaches all angles of a gloss tube.  “I am introducing Swoon so that millions of lip gloss lovers can say goodbye to lost gloss”, says Wright.
