I can relate to just about every one of these. Going to the dentist is a big lippy no no. They tend to get it every where and fixing it up is a nightmare. Putting on lippy when you are in a club is always interesting. The lighting is either so bright it shows every flaw so trying to fix it all you end up over doing it or it is so bad that it is almost like guessing. Your better off with a hand mirror in the cubicle which can be awkward as there are never enough toilets and the state of most you don't want to be there any longer than necessary.
