Lipstick Queen Poppy King has a great story in the beauty industry – she was the founder of now-defunct Poppy at just 18 years old and recently launched Lipstick Queen, a top notch line of lipsticks (of course!) and other lip products, including the newest addition, Big Bang Glosses.

The Big Bang Glosses are $20 each at www.lipstickqueen.com or Barneys stores.
