Vitamin Lips
A way to ingest vitamins without worrying about when and how to take your pills | |
It has been shown that women ingest a couple of pounds of lipstick every year. Why not do this in a useful manner ? Just calculate the daily amount of lipstick that a woman "eats" every day, insert in lipstick the daily necessary vitamin supliment and .. there! No more annoying pills ! One will just
buy the right colour with the vitamin one in lacking !

Surely, you'd have to eat it? |
|
| |
Don`t i anyways ? .. except for the small amount i leave on cups, glasses .. |
|

Detective 1: The lipstick on this collar contains vitamin B-12. |
|
| |
Detective 2: So we are looking for a woman with pernicious anemia! |
|
| |
We could even expand this to include lip moisturizers (sp?) and chapstick as well. No reason only women and cross-dressers should get the benefit from such a bun-able idea (and it is a great idea!++++)! |
|
| |
reminds me of [UB]'s chocolate toothpaste. except for that eating part, or? |
|
| |
Damn. This comes not really that close but
too close nevertheless to an idea I had a
few weeks ago that might actually make
money if developed. |
|
| |
Everybody knows that sentences that begin with "everybody knows" often contain spurious information. |
|
| |
[normzone] : hope this satisfies you .. still, we both know everybody knows it! |
|
| |
A better use for this would be birth control. The birth control lipstick, so that no woman ever forgets to take the pill. |
|
| |
shhhhhhhh... don't you let them know! |

//Vitamins reek people.// |
|
| |
Vitamins themselves don't reek, it's the other (inactive) ingerdients in the tablets that reek. |
|
| |
Smell depends on the vitamin. Vitamin C smells pretty nice. Most of the B group are kind of smelly. |
|
| |
I'm sure that just the chemical itself does not smell significantly, it is what it is mixed with or extracted from. |

|

I've read this as the average US American woman consuming 6 pounds of lipstick in her lifetime, but can't find a source of the claim. Do you have a link to support your version? |
|
| |
(The FDA seems to assume between 20mg and 80mg lipstick per day. That doesn't add up to six pounds, even ignoring that the "average woman" doesn't apply lipstick three times per day.) |
|
| |
Does this mean if you eat the whole tube of lipstick, you wouldn't need to take vitamins for a year? |
|
| |
very hard to control dosage, but a good one. |
|
| |
A bit reminiscent of the onion article that claimed women get most of their vitamins from shampoos now. |
|
| |
trying to digest [normzone]'s and [jutta]'s skeptic attitude towards the post... reading the post again... |
|
| |
who said pills were annoying? |
