Lip(asta)Stick: Pasta Lipstick!

Introducing: Lip(asta)Stick

It's a tube of lipstick, but it's penne pasta! It's super satisfying to play with (quiet, discreet fidget toy, anyone? 👀) and has made everyone I've shown it to laugh. If you find yourself asking, "Why? Why does this exist?," the answer is simple: ✨whimsy✨

Makes a perfect add to your everyday carry and serves a reminder to not take life so seriously <3

Fidget features include: 

• Penne noodle twists up and down
• Outer tube spins freely
• Lid spins freely
• Lid snaps on and off with a nice ‘click’

No AMS, brim, supports, or extra materials necessary!

To assemble: 

1. Twist the penne noodle onto the center spindle attached to the bottom base of the lipstick. If you look at the bottom side of the noodle, you'll see a notch cut out along the inner diameter. You'll need to align that notch with the beginning of the thread at the top of the spindle for the noodle to slide all the way down.
2. Slide the tall inner tube over the noodle, and spin it until it drops into place. Much like the noodle, the inner tube as a notch cut out along the inner diameter; that notch will need to align with the peg at the base of the outside of the noodle to slide all the way down.
3. Slide the short outer tube over the inner tube. (You're in luck; no notches on this one!)
4. Slide the stripe piece over the outer tube and the rest of the parts you've assembled, and snap it into place by pressing the pegs along its bottom side into the holes on the bottom of the lipstick's base.
5. Slide the lid on top, snap it into place, and you're good to go!
