Why can't someone invent a lipstick re-tipper?
I hate when the point on lipstick wears down and it's just flat. I've started using a lip brush, but it's inconvenient to take in my purse.

I also wish "they" would invent a helmet or something that cauterizes split ends, for those times when you don't have a chance to go get a hair cut.

In conclusion, I want Funyuns with breath-freshening properties, tiny bananas that are about three inches in length, and invisible, moisturizing gloves.

1. What about running them through the sharpener on the back of a Crayola box?

3. The lipstick would be of excessive circumference to fit.
Nice try, though.

4. I have a visceral aversion to pet hair, so no.

5. I don't know how you can manage to survive with flat lipstick and such.
They sure didn't take us too far out of the cave, did they? We must keep demanding these things or we'll end up back in the cave and all progress will stop.

:P

:hide:


Kidding aside, maybe you could use a crayon sharpener to sharpen the lipstick. Would that work? :think:

11. I tried, but it doesn't seem to help.
Perhaps I just manhandle the lipstick.

:P

14. And they are awesome, too.

The ones I had down south were so sweet they tasted like the filling in a banana cream pie. The ones I had in the midwest... not so much, but still very good. Probably organic ones would be sweeter. Anyway, I bet if you asked the produce manager he could score some just for you. Seriously.
