Fat Lips & Gloss

These things annoy me

Warning: Rant

I dragged my hunny with me for a quick stop into Vickys yesterday to stock up on some undies. (which was hilarious in itself b/c my hunny was the only man actually looking around with me and picking things up on his own shouting "Babe, look. You'll like these, they have little dogs on them!" I love him---I think the sales girls loved him, too

Anywho, waiting in line to pay two things caught my attention: The 50 giant bowls of lip gloss and one specially placed bowl with its own light and decorations for a "Perfect Pout" lip gloss which supposedly puffs-up the lips.

I don't understand My Burts Bees chapstick gives me that same shiney look w/out being sticky and leaving sticky shit on my glass & boyfriend. Why? Why do some women like gloss??? I've never had anything so nasty on my lips in all my life---even the booger-picker I had to kiss in a game of spin the bottle when I was 12. And EVERYTHING sticks to it--if there's a breeze, a piece of your hair will inevitably get caught in the goo. Like salt on the rim of your margarita? Consider your lips rimmed, as well.

And now you can also pay for over-the-counter bee-stung lips I ask you men---did anyone think Jessica Simpson was utterly unkissable BEFORE she had her lips inflated to the size of a lemon?





Edit: PS. I still love your smile, Rebecca

Ooooh girl! You had to get me started first thing in the morning!!??


I don't wear and kind of lip gloss or lipstick. I can't stand the way it feels AND tastes!! It doesn't look natural to have dark red lips.....I have always worn "chapstick" type of stuff, it keeps my lips soft and "kissable".....

But lets go even further...how about those silly girls that wear lip liner? Dark lip liner...lip liner that makes them look like they just ate a bowl of pasta??!! God grief, it drives me crazy...don't they know they look silly?

I wear lip liner, bee-otch

The shade is "toast" and is basically the color of my lips, just a smidge enhanced. I line them, then put on my Burts Bees chapstick, then rub all together

I wear it when we go out at night and I want a little more calla

I forgot to add the funniest detail: The gloss itself was packaged inside this blown-up bag that looked like a square silicone implant

Well thats ok.....I'm talking about the girls that have dark/bright red lip liner and a shade of lip stick that is three shades lighter then the liner....I want to ask them if they enjoyed their pasta.

I'm all about "nautural looking" make up....Make up that enhances your natural beauty.

RANT JOINER!:

I'm with ya here - I can't stand gloss, gave it up years ago. I don't know what the men here will say, but any man I've kissed when I did wear it always wiped it off after they got a taste of it. Blech! It's sooo thick and gooey - it's like it's suffocating your lips.

I'm not against lipstick, or liner for that matter, but I can't stand that 2-toned look either...it's suppose to blend together if you wear it to subtly enhance your lip-line, not make it look like a little kid w/a crayon got to you.

And as for the trout-pout, you're either born w/pouty lips or you're not. If you try to make it happen it never seems to look right - like most face lifts; you certainly look different but not necessarily better.

Nearly always, a natural set of puckers consists of a smaller upper lip and larger bottom lip. It annoys me when they're un-naturally equal in size.
