Makeup rant #1

Hiii :)
I needed to share my frustration with bad packaging with other makeup obsessed people! I purchased a lipstick from Flower Cosmetics, the line from Drew Barrymore, a while back. I would not recommend it at all, just because of the packaging! I hate to say it, because honestly, I have loved everything else that I own from Flower. I'm talking about the Lip Service Lip Butter only, I have tried the Kiss Me Twice Lip and Cheek Chubby, the Lip Suede Velvet Lip Chubby and the Kiss Stick High Shine Lip Color and I have no complaints. 
Look at it! It's so pretty! Of course, I wanted to try one. (Excuse the bad quality of the picture, I just got a new camera and I'm still figuring out how it works.)
So my problem is not the aesthetics of it, but the practicality. THE CAP DOES NOT STAY ON! I put it on and I had to do something out of my home. Within five minutes of being in my purse, the cap was off. 
What bothers me the most is that since it's a lip butter, it's not long wearing. I'll HAVE to reapply at some point. It needs to stay in my purse the time that I am out of my house. I didn't buy this product to sit in my collection and only wear it when I'm home.
The product itself is nice, really pigmented and creamy, with loads of colour options. It's just not practical for me. If you have one, does it do the same thing? Is it just mine or the first version of the packaging?
Anyways, that was my rant. Honestly, I should've looked at the reviews first, because someone else has the same issue and I wouldn't have wasted my money.
On a more positive note, I really want to start posting on a more regular basis, which will be easier when I start my last year of university (yay!) next week. Sorry for disappearing for months and months.
Love you all!
