This lipstick is so strong, it stayed put through a car crash
Taryn may have totaled her car, but at least she walked away without injuries ... and with some free makeup.
During her morning commute on Wednesday, she glanced at her GPS, which told her she had 13 minutes until her destination. "I'm in traffic and I joke to myself, 'No way am I going to get there in 13 minutes,'" she told Mashable through Twitter DM.
She was right: As she tried to change lanes, she didn't see another car's abrupt stop. She slammed on her breaks, but it was too late for her Mini Cooper. Her first thought was to wonder why her airbags were smoking ... then she realized her car was completely totaled. (The car she hit was barely touched.)
"Police and fire was involved, no one was hurt," Taryn said. "After doing paperwork, I noticed the lipstick mark on the airbag and had to laugh."
Although her car was demolished in the crash, her Jeffree Star brand lipstick was nearly unscathed.

Whether you're dancing, eating, or attending an important dick appointment, Star's line is likely to make it through with little smudging.
Taryn notes that while she rarely wears lipstick — calling it a "once a month thing" — she knew that Star's products were reliable.
"Normally I don’t have an issue with them moving or budging," she said.
In a tweet about the incident, she proved justhow immovable the lipstick was: Although it left prints on her airbag, it barely smudged on her face.

After she saw the lipstick prints on her car's deployed airbag, her "first reaction was to look at my face, yes!" Taryn said. "I wiped away the nose makeup smears because my nose was running and it went with it."
She sent a post-crash selfie to Mashable, adding that her lips "were not touched up."

As her tweet gained popularity, Jeffree Star himself responded, offering a palette from his most recently released collection to cheer her up.

"He told me to DM him, but by the time I got to my Twitter again he had already DM'd me," Taryn said, adding that Star already asked for her address.
Although she's still keeping an eye out for concussion symptoms, Taryn told Twitter that she walked away with no major injuries.
“Thank you internet," she said after her nightmare day. "For the wild ride after a hard stop!”
