The Urban Outfitters Mood Lipstick Features Five Tints

Forget the mood ring; instead, show everyone what you're feeling day-to-day with the Urban Outfitters Mood Lipstick set. Unlike the mood ring, however, this is not a single lipstick that magically changes color. It is a set of five lipsticks, each with its own aptly named emotion: Temper, Melancholy, Clarity, Vain and Lust.

Don't let the colors throw you off either. Each Urban Outfitters Mood Lipstick is beautifully sheer, with only a hint of a slightly different pink tint. The set is priced at $14.
