Lippypop
For girls "On the go"

For those of you who haven't witnessed a cute, young 20something applying makeup whilst driving at 70mph on the freeway and drinking a bottle of fruit juice, this one won't make much sense.

The Lippypop contains enough red dye to redden the lips of the user for up to 12 hours, giving the appearance of freshly applied lipstick.

It also contains a nutritionally balanced mix of carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals and a shot of caffeine, to ensure the aforementioned 20something gets a decent breakfast at the same time.

Now, I have to go and work on a similar solution for mascara. The idea of a sudden stop in traffic, and a mascara brush embedded in an eyeball just turns my stomach.

       I have a friend, cute twenty something at the time, who rammed her Grand Am in to a van at over 40 MPH having never touched the brakes. What a mess...two totalled vehicles, cracked sternum, concussion, whiplash, nail polish absolutely everywhere.

       That's the concept.

       Got something for the geniuses that read the newspaper while driving? I got the chance to observe some interesting things when I commuted by bus.

       What is it with the newspaper thing? Don't they have a car radio?

       + It has my vote.
I once witnessed a young lady curling her eyelashes with that bizarre metal contraption that looks like 2 curved surfaces on the end of a pair of scissors.
The problem was that I had just pulled up behind her at a notoriously tricky roundabout. Just one nudge and she would have been holding her eyeball.
The sad thing was that she was about 500yards from her works carpark.
Question is, do you get a better result of makeup application 'while on the move'?.

       How about creating a two minute professional drive thru Make-u-up? Wouldn't taste so good, though.

       Just don't spill it down your nice, clean, white blouse front

       I'm unsure how that doesn't happen, now, with these bimbos.

       Isn't the sole purpose for applying lipstick to be "seen" doing it?

       If that were the case more men would be "seen" doing it, in the hope of attracting a potential... Umm, never mind, as you were...

       for the mascara you could make motorized sunglasses that spin the lenses and apply make-up.

       From experience, I can say that eating the implied quantity of dye will change more than just the color a person’s lips. I have had this happen once with blue dye, once with red. It is a fairly frightening thing to have happen, at least until I figured out what was going on.
