    I didn't realize that Belle Jolie was a real lipstick-making company. What I want to know is how Peggy Olson would market this shit.

    That photo is really creeping me out. It kinda looks like something you'd see in Lillian Vernon catalogs; something marketed to people who take long car trips....know what I'm getting at?

    I'll wait.

    @Aesop's Foibles. YES.: I can see it, but if it actually were a Lillian Vernon pee receptacle it would have sea shells or kittens on it, or possibly a monogram.

    Natural selection and evolution can explain a lot about what humans find attractive... but I'm pretty sure that "full" lips don't have any advantage over thin lips from a biological standpoint. #jolielipslipplumpingenhancementsystem...

    I look at this and am reminded of those little rubber bulbs you use to clean out babies' noses.

    The combo of penis in the headline and lip plumping, I completely thought we were talking about the lips on the south side of the globe.
    It was much more intriguing to say the least. #jolielipslipplumpingenhancementsystem...

    I've never met a pit bull I didn't like. Unfortunately, after this campaign I'm not yet able to say the same about hockey moms, although I've got some football-mom friends.


    I'm ridiculously pale, but I love dark red lipstick. The bf tells me it makes me look like a black-and-white movie star, which is one of the smartest things I think he's ever said to me...

    Another difference. Pit bulls can be trained to behave in public.


    Hockey moms, not so much. They are by far the most crazypants set of sporting parents I have ever encountered.

    As for why lips are (often) red, their color comes from the blood-filled capillaries under the skin.


    I thought this was common knowledge.

    @Jessi Ramsey: If it was, I missed it. But it makes perfect sense, and if I'd had to guess before I probably would have said something similar (i.e., the sensitivity of lips would lead me to believe there was more blood flow to the area, hence the darker color.)

    The second part about capillaries I knew; the first part is interesting. Why that particular adaptation? What purpose does it serve?

    @NefariousNewt, Serving at the Pleasure of the President-Ele...: I'd always assumed this to be one of those "It is what it is... or what it reminds you of" things. A come on, basically - I'd guess because as we began to walk upright (and clothed) our vulvas were no longer out there on display.
