A fascinating list. I usta drive by the old Scovil plant on a daily basis, never had any idea what exactly they manufactured.
FYI re #13: While warning may be the intent, I can say with some degree of certainty that for many men it has exactly the opposite effect. Pardon any perceived crudity; I'm just sayin
It makes sense that bright, happy lipsticks sell best on rainy days. Thanks for pointing it out. Great list.
My DD is just starting to wear lipstick, and won't leave home without applying it. It's adorable.
Not liking the 5% in stomach, thing, but as a former waitress I can attest to the coffee mug/glass part (AND to the fact that it does NOT come off without scrubbing!).
