Mindy Kaling Just Gave Up Lip Gloss for Good: Here’s Why (Exclusive)

Moms will relate!

Mindy Kaling is kissing lip gloss goodbye.

At this week's Tory Burch New York Fashion Week show, the 45-year-old actress, writer and producer shared that the makeup item and motherhood don't exactly mix.

"I don't wear lip gloss anymore because it just gets in my hair too much," Kaling told PEOPLE at the Monday, Sept. 9 event. "If I'm in a rush with children — it just smears all over. So I am kind of just doing like a lip balm these days."

In addition to lip product, Kaling makes sure to keep one item on her at all times during Fashion Week: "My Tide Stick."

At the show, which took place at The Skylight at The Refinery in Brooklyn, the Office alum wore a beige striped button-down top with brown pants and brown pointed toe shoes. She wore a light brown textured overcoat and carried a beige purse.

In chatting with PEOPLE, Kaling also shared that her daughter Anne is learning to crawl.

“My baby is like, she can't crawl yet, but she's like trying,” Kaling said. "She's like revving. She's immobile but she really wants to get going.”“And I'm like, ‘No, not yet!’ I like that she can't move that much,” the star continues. “It's like nice and easier to watch her.”

As for bringing her kids along to fashion events, the star says that currently, she thinks only her oldest child "would be able to appreciate it."

“My son is more into like a trucks vibe," the mom of three continued. "So, unless Tory did like a trucks collab I think it might be lost on him.”

Earlier this month, Kaling celebrated her son Spencer’s fourth birthday with a Cars-themed party.

The special day featured an outdoor obstacle course and themed birthday cake.

"Happy Birthday to my number one guy, Spencer Kaling (who woke up this morning and said, ‘I had a great night’s sleep and now I’m four!’) 🚗🚗🚗," the Mindy Project alum wrote on Instagram.
