Are you welcome to stuff mom never told you? 3 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:17,480 Speaker 1: From House Towards dot com. Hey there, and welcome to 4 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: the podcast. Is this Kristen and this is Molly, So Molly. 5 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,439 Speaker 1: A few months ago we did a podcast on a 6 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: little term called the lipstick indicator. Yes, and in a nutshell, 7 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: of course, you can learn more details in the podcast, 8 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: But in a nutshell, lipstick indicator is this idea that 9 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 1: in the downturn economy, the sign of um people's shrinking 10 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 1: budgets are arise in certain certain goods. And so according 11 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: to this lipstick indicator, they're saying that since women can't, 12 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: you know, by go out and buy ourselves pairs of 13 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: two thousand dollar Minola's, UM, we still can't afford certain 14 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: small pick me ups such as lipsticks. They're saying that 15 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: when the economy goes bust, the sales of makeup and 16 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: especially lipstick go up, because we need something a quick 17 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: pick me up, you know, to make us feel like 18 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: we're on top of the world when we have no 19 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: money at all. But I also think that too many 20 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: women lipstick is just an absolute must have. You know. 21 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: They may cut out their latte's, they may cut out 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 1: the big shopping spreeze, but so many women will not 23 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: leave the house without lipstick on my mom won't. I mean, 24 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: Chris and I are not good examples of this. I 25 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: don't know where the most qualified people talk about lipstick, 26 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: but today we're gonna try because I hate lipstick. Never 27 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: wear it for chapstick, but not lipstick. I remember one 28 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: time I got one of those kiddie makeup kits, which 29 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: are pretty common, Like I think young girls one of 30 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: their first like sort of transition into adulthood toys is 31 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: like a makeup kit. Was this when you were the child? Ball? Yes, yes, 32 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: I just bought an intro to makeup hit. Um no. 33 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: I remember I had a friend come over and she 34 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: was very expert. I was had a very keen eye 35 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: for watching her mother in the mirror, so she was 36 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: applying makeup like this little adult. I took the lipstick 37 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: and just drew a line down my head and then 38 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: kind of drew like things under my eyes. I was 39 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: just sort of using lipstick as my as my brush, 40 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: and my face is my canvas. So you had no 41 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: clue where lipstick when that's awesome, Molly, Well, I think 42 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: I knewhere I went. It just didn't please me esthetically 43 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: the way drawing it all over my face did? Your 44 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: a renegade, Molly, I am a renegade because most of 45 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: women during history, I've known exactly how to do this, 46 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: even when they didn't have the nice convenience of lipstick 47 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: and a tube, even they didn't make their own, they 48 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: did it. Yeah. Um, A lot of the history of 49 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: lipstick starts with Cleopatra obviously, you know, the most most 50 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: famous and last pharaoh of ancient Egypt, and a famed beauty, 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: famed beauty, and she wore she wore lipstick made of 52 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: crushed ants and carmine in a base of bees wax. 53 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: So I mean that's that's a commitment to my lipstick. 54 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: I'm just not willing to make crushed ants. I'm not 55 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 1: going to crush my ants up. But women as far 56 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: back as three thousand BC, we're mixing up ingredients that 57 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: include things like seaweed, um, bromian manni which was halogen 58 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: and alcohol sugar and it was very toxic um with 59 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: like red clay and iron oxide a k rust. So 60 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: they're mixing all these just ingredients found in nature together 61 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: especially the upper class woman, as as coloring for the lips. 62 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: But only the person who was credited with creating the 63 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: first lipstick that was actually a stick. It was dude, 64 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: a Muslim and Lucian known his name was Abu al 65 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: Kasim al Zarawi. I'm correctly, um, he created, yes, the 66 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: first stick lipstick around a D nine hundred, and he 67 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: created a wax base for the pigment. He perfumed it 68 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: and pressed it into a mold. Well yeah and uh 69 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: and lipstick remained pretty popular with women throughout the Middle Ages, 70 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: but then, um, it's popularity began to wane when it 71 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: began became associated with prostitutes and lower class women. You know, 72 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: we've talked about a lot of fashion trends that the 73 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: upper class has really pioneered. Lipsticks not one of them 74 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: until we get, um, until the fifteen hundreds, whom we 75 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: got Queen Elizabeth, who, as you may have seen, had 76 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: a very pale face and set it off with very 77 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: dark lips, and her lipstick was made from bees wax. 78 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: And I like this crushed dried flowers such as roses 79 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: or geraniums. That sounds kind of nice. It sounds really delightful, 80 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: like lipstick fifth for queen, But you know, every now 81 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: and then you'll still get back to this sort of 82 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: lower class prostitute thing to avoid in fact um, in 83 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: the seventeen seventies in England, basically there was a law 84 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: that said that women who are wearing makeup were witches. Yeah, 85 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: which is not just witches, Molly, but witches who attempted 86 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: to lure men into marriage and could be burned at 87 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: the steak for it. How dare they learn men into marriage? 88 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: Put on that lipstick and watch out? Um and uh. 89 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: Then during Queen Victoria's reign between eighteen thirty seven in 90 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: eighteen o one, women who wanted to color their lips 91 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: would rub them against died crepe paper or ribbon, and 92 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: some would sneak preparations purchased from France or elsewhere because 93 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: there was still this, yeah, the kind of weird attitude 94 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: about about lipstick always being kind of associated with um, 95 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: I guess sex pretty much. Yeah, but you know women 96 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: are always willing to kind of bend the rules to 97 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: get it. Yeah. And then then the tyb ind A 98 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: turn in the late eighteen nineties, and then Sears and 99 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: Roebuck offered um a rouge for lips and cheeks for 100 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: the first time in in their catalog. And then when 101 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: we have the Rise of movies, the film stars would 102 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: have to wear lipsticks because on the black and white 103 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: UM film their their lips wouldn't stand out unless they 104 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: would wear the strong UM lipstick. And I'm sure that 105 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: the male actors probably were lipstick as well. He he 106 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: oh celemarities, but they were really the ones who cemented 107 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: the modern push up lipstick tube. It's commonplace by nineteen fifteen, 108 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 1: and after that it really never goes out of style, 109 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: and now it sold bookoos and bookoos and UM, I 110 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: didn't know this, Molly, but Max Factor came along and 111 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: invented lip gloss in the thirties. I didn't know about that. 112 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: And during World War Two, not surprisingly, a lot of 113 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: lipstick ingredients like petroleum were unavailable, so UM, you kind 114 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: of see a drop in lipstick because it was scarce. 115 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 1: But then by the nineteen fifties, with stars like Marilyn 116 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: Rowe and Elizabeth Taylor, UM, it was very like glamorous 117 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: actresses UM wearing lipstick. It came back into vogue. And 118 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,799 Speaker 1: you know, red is always sort of the most popular color. 119 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: And it wasn't until the sixties that we see trends 120 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: and clothes and other types of makeup changing. Um. And 121 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: that's from the sixties on you start to get the 122 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: really you know, crazy colors, frosted lipsticks and pale pink, 123 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: lavender and white, you know, very jar eclipsticks.

And of 126 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: course I don't want to leave men out to this 127 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: fabulous article that we have about how lipstick were points 128 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 1: out that there's a little term called man stick for 129 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: men who wear lipstick. They might be trying to go 130 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: for some sort of androgynous rock glam vibe, channeling David 131 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: Bowie a little bit. Yeah, but you know, what exactly 132 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: are we putting on our lips, Kristen or not putting 133 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: on our lips? And and there's some mind cases what 134 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: are we missing out on, Molly, Well, we're missing out 135 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: on crushed beetles, cal brains and uh, petroleum and fish scales. 136 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: So I'm not too worried about it, but have no 137 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: fear these are not dangerous let's talk about what's in lipstick. Yeah, 138 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: let's talk about the ingredients of lipstick. Um. Basically, lipstick. 139 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: Tube of lipstick is a compressed tube of waxes, oils, additives, 140 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: and pigments that not only give you color but also 141 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: moisturize the lips, because you don't want, you know, dry 142 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: cracked lips with color. You want we want them plump 143 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: and and moist So we need the wax because it's 144 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: going to stabilize this sick and mold it into shape. 145 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: And we need the oil. And this is where you 146 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: might have cowbrains come in, because a very inexpensive oil 147 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: can be extracted from it. But after dangers from that 148 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: cow disease, they don't use certain cows anymore according to 149 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: this article. Um. But anyway, the oils and the fats 150 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: and ellipstick keep it just the right texture so it's 151 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: soft enough to apply but firm enough to keep it 152 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: from melting unless you leave it in your car. And 153 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: then in addition to that, molly, you've got a allian's 154 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: that make the lipstick even more moisturizing for your lips. 155 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: And that might include stuff like vitamin E and ali vera. 156 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: But you know people aren't really buying lipstick for the wax. 157 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: I don't think they're buying it for the color. And 158 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: so that comes for a combination of plant, animal, mineral, 159 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: or synthetic ingredients. Normally we mentioned crushed beetles um earlier 160 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: as one ingredient, yes delicious um. Now the beetles mentioned 161 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: in in that are are the source of color, often 162 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: listed as carmine or cockneal extract and cockneal extract molly 163 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: um refers to insects that are killed by steam and 164 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: then they're dried, powdered, and processed to create a bright 165 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: crimson dye that's non toxic and non cancerous, unlike some 166 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: red dyes used in the past, such as probably I 167 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: don't know, putting rust on your lips. It probably couldn't 168 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: have been too good for you. Um. And then you've 169 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: also got preservatives like alcohol and other ingredients um, and 170 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: also sunscreen and fragrance. Yeah. They can add all sorts 171 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: of things to lipstick. Yeah. And and so they mix 172 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: all this up and they heat it up and uh, 173 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: and they make sure that the color is consistent, that 174 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: you have a good smooth texture, and then um, it's 175 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: pressed the other into the tubes and it's basically like 176 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: making crayons. Yeah, so they'll take um, they'll make sure 177 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: everything's mixed, like you were saying, and then they put 178 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: like hot oils in it so it's mixed with the wax, 179 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: and then they pour it into the molds and they 180 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: just chill it till it's firm. I mean it sounds, 181 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: you know, pretty easy, pretty easy. In fact, only it 182 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: is so easy that we could be making our own 183 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: lipstick right now. That is true. This article how Lipstick 184 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 1: Works has three recipes for how to make your own lipstick, 185 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: which might be really important if you want, you know, 186 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: an organic lipstick, if you are opposed to using some 187 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: sort of you know, wax that's derived from an animal product. Um, 188 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 1: it's apparently very easy. Should we share a recipe? I 189 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: like the very very lip gloss because it is so 190 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: seems so simple. All it is is just a cup 191 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: of berries, which is cranberry, blueberry, raspberry boys and berry um. 192 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: And then you have some alavera gel or petroleum oil, 193 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: and you measured out the liquid dropper and then one 194 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: teaspot at a time, you smash your berries into a 195 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 1: paste and watch out for berries with seeds because you 196 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: want to get rid of those seeds um. And then 197 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: with a dropper you add the gel or the oil 198 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: until you have a glossy consistency and then you're done. 199 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't know if I would make 200 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: it to the final step. I have a feeling i'd 201 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: eat the berries um. But you know, women kind of 202 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: inevitably consume a lot of lipstick. Yeah, I mean, and 203 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: when it's on your lips, it kind of gets eaten 204 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: a small amounts. And there's this claim out there that 205 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: women who use lipstick consumed between four and six pounds 206 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: of lipstick a year. A year, I mean, imagine if 207 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: you're dieting, it's the beetle chills ruins your diet. Um. 208 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: But this article does point out that there there's no 209 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: scientific sties to prove this, and it seems a little 210 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: ridiculous if you consider that the average lipstick weighs less 211 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: than half an ounce, and to in order to consume 212 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: four pounds, you'd have to eat at least a hundred 213 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: eighteen tubes of it. I mean, I don't know, I 214 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: don't wear lipstick, but do you really even buy a 215 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: hundred and eighteen tubes in a year. I don't know, well, 216 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: I mean that, Yeah, you have to be going through 217 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: in order to use all of them up. You'd have 218 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: to either just be gobbling them down when you put 219 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: them on, because you have to eat like one a day, 220 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: I mean lipstick a day. Maybe that's where the lipstick 221 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: indicator gets so strong because now we use it for food. 222 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: Maybe so well, like there you go, yeah, maybe that's 223 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: maybe that's something we need to need to look into 224 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: lipstick food. Um, but there are there are a bunch 225 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: of different types of lipstick. You might think ellipstick is 226 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: a lipstick, but indeed, no, there are many varieties out there. 227 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: That's true. This may seem pretty basic to people who 228 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: actually do wear makeup and like the two of us, 229 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: But you know, it's a whole new world for me 230 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: and Molly. If I were ever to go to the 231 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: store to say, by ellipstick, I would have no idea 232 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 1: what to do because you go to that aisle and 233 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: there's a bazillion things. Yeah, um, first thing I would 234 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: probably stay away from me personally from my style, I'd 235 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: probably stay away from the mat and Matt. Lipstick is 236 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: the strongest, darkest color of lipstick and that's because instead 237 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: of being shiny, they actually deflect light. And these are 238 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: gonna be your longer lasting um lipsticks. And they might 239 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: not be as flattering for thinner or wrinkled lips because 240 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: they don't contain as many moisturizing ingredient. But if you 241 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: want to punchy color, strong color, then uh, then that's 242 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: what Matt might be the way to go. But if 243 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: you do have those thin lips, then one option you 244 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: might consider as a lip plumper. Yeah, these are kind 245 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: of odd to me. They're designed to make your lips 246 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: look fuller. Yeah, but they and they do that by 247 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: actually irritating the your your sensitive lip tissue, so that 248 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: you're you're basically inflaming your lips to to make them 249 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: a little more Angelina Jolius. Yeah, you're basically using you know, 250 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: ingredients might be like ginger, cinnamon, cayenne or menthal and 251 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: so you kind of feel like a tingle. But some 252 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,599 Speaker 1: people have really bad reactions in a minute. There's like 253 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: burning and pain. So I don't know, I'm probably would 254 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: just eat like a really spicy Mexic condition and have 255 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,599 Speaker 1: the natural effect. Then willingly buy something that's going to 256 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: hurt my lips like that, or if you want um, 257 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: if you want a little bit of uh, carry Fisher 258 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: in Star Wars vibe, you can get some some hot 259 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: lip gloss. Yes, these have a little bit more oil 260 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: than the regular mats. Let me. Some so shiny and 261 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: sometimes sticky if they've got flavors um, but they are 262 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: usually transparent and the colors are lighter and they rub 263 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: off easy, but you're getting a lot of moisture. Some 264 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: people use both a mat and a gloss to get 265 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: the best of both worlds deep color and shine. Yeah um, 266 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: and then moving on. If you want something kind of 267 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: in the middle of a mat and a gloss, you 268 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: want something a little little punchier than a gloss, but 269 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: not quite quite as punchy as a mat, you could 270 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,199 Speaker 1: go for a cream. And these lipstick creams contain more 271 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: wax um and so they actually protect the lips better 272 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: than um matt types of lipstick. But they also result 273 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: in dry lips because of all that wax. So you 274 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: might need a layer of moisturizer and then your cream, 275 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: and then and then and then who knows. This is 276 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: why we do not go to the stile. But apologies 277 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: if this is elementary to you. Did you know about shimmer? 278 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: Is this the frosty stuff? This is the frosty seventies 279 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: style lipstick? Yeah? And do you know how they make 280 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: it so that it's all kind of sparkly diamonds. I 281 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: wish that would explain lipstick prices and sms to some extent. 282 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: But now they're using mica, silica, synthetic pearl and sometimes 283 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: fish scales to get that light reflecting look. And then finally, um, 284 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: we have the long wearing lipstick. And think these are 285 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: the ones that you see advertise the at least on 286 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: the commercials that I see. You know, like you want 287 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 1: the long lasting lipstick that's not gonna rub off every 288 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: time you take a sip of your coffee. Um, and 289 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: these might contain silicon and oil to steal in the color. 290 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: But because these are these are long lasting, kind of 291 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: sturdier formulas, they might dry dry your lips out, so 292 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: you'd probably want to do a two part system of 293 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: a base and a gloss. Once again, all these layers 294 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: of stuff on your lips seems like a lot of work. 295 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: And um, you know there's a section in this article 296 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: how lipstick works. They're using for our source today that 297 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: explains how to put on lipstick, uh, the ideal way 298 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: to do it, and all these tips. Um that's actually 299 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: decided it's not really going to translate well into a podcast. 300 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: Check that out on the on the article. But morely, 301 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: even though even though I did want Kristin to like 302 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: try to put it on so I could describe what 303 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: she was doing, I thought that'd be like a really 304 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: cool sort of radio thing. But whenever I put on 305 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: lipstick and the rare, rare occasions that I do, it 306 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: just ends up all over my teeth and in places 307 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: it just somehows shouldn't be like it will be on 308 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: my cheek somehow. I don't really know how I'm so 309 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: terrible at it. But Molly, I gotta say, you know, 310 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: I like your lipstick method, just the old school. Just 311 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: line down the face and uh and call it a day. 312 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: Just express yourself, espress yourself with your lipstick style, whether 313 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: you want a cream, shimmer, gloss. But you know, why 314 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: why does this matter so much to men? Obviously? We 315 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: you know, like I said, we've said many times, we're 316 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: not really made the ideal people to talk about it. 317 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: But you can't deny that this is like a huge 318 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: thing for women. Yeah, we've been wearing it since three 319 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: thousand BC. It's kind of you know, obviously there's gotta 320 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: be some reason why why women are wearing it. I mean, 321 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: first of all, you know, women think that it makes 322 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: them look more attractive. There's a theory, you know, that 323 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: younger women have you know, redder, more supple lips, and 324 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: so older women will want to wear lipstick to give 325 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: them that youthful, drubic glow. Whereas you know, teenagers who 326 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: are just getting to start to make up for the 327 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: first time O riant to look older and they think 328 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,120 Speaker 1: it's sort of like this entrance into womanhood. So we've 329 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: got these people both trying to look older and younger 330 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: and younger at the same time. But then, on the 331 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: other hand, there's another theory, um that lipstick merely emphasizes 332 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: our sexuality. So maybe this is common knowledge. I was 333 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 1: not aware of it, but the article points that if 334 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: you amp up the colub your lips by putting, you know, 335 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: a rosy color on it, then you're basically trying to 336 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: mimic your genitalia. Yeah, the color of your genitaly. Yeah. 337 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: I had never heard that theory either. But an interesting 338 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: thing is I was talking to my my friend about 339 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: about this article and this idea um of the you know, 340 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: the color reflection, emphasizing the sexuality, and she actually said 341 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: that that was the reason why her mom discouraged her 342 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: from wearing lipstick in the first place, because she thought 343 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: it was just, you know, it was just kind of trashy. 344 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 1: And I bet that that idea of kind of over 345 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: emphasizing like the female sexuality is one of the reasons 346 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: why it came in and out of vogue, and because 347 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: it was associated with um with prostitutes. Yeah, and there 348 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: are some women who say that because you're only putting 349 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: this on your mouth to make a guy think of 350 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: your genitalia, that it's just a patriarchal trap. You know, 351 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: you can go very extreme on this viewpoint and say, 352 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, just the fact that lipstick exists, it wasn't 353 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: then by a man that we're putting it on just 354 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: to satisfy their gaze. Yeah, to satisfy the male gaze. 355 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: But then you've got people this was really interesting to us, 356 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: um suffragets or specifically because it wasn't you know, a 357 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: nice thing to do. Yeah, that was in with like 358 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,479 Speaker 1: the early nineteen hundreds, they would put it on, you know, 359 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: as a way to to stick it to the man. Yeah. 360 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: And also I think that we were reading about how 361 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: in the nineteen eighties and became sort of this armor. 362 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: You know, these women were trying to make their way 363 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: in the business world, sometimes for the first time, and 364 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: you would think that rather than deflecting that male gaze 365 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: and you know, trying to fit in and be one 366 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: of the guys, it was a way to emphasize their 367 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: female appearance while still you know, maybe becoming more aggressively 368 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,239 Speaker 1: female than they were used to. So yeah, I mean 369 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: it's kind of lipstick definitely has it as an interesting 370 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, contentious history, because we we 371 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: like it and we and we love loath it, well 372 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: we loath it more than others. But you know, there's 373 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 1: some places where it's forbidden to wear it. So just 374 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: the fact that we have the option to love it 375 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: or low that it's sort of a big deal. I 376 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: don't want to check the girl myself, you know. I 377 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 1: like to keep it simple. You know. I just feel 378 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: I think, because I'm not used to wearing it. When 379 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 1: I put it on, I just feel like too flashy. Yeah, 380 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: me too, Molly. Whenever, yeah, whenever I feel go out 381 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: with lipstick on, and like the two times that's happened 382 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: in the past five years, I feel very obvious. I 383 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: feel like I'm almost like attracting too much attention because 384 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: my my lips are so bright. But of course there 385 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,360 Speaker 1: are other one who just you know, as I said, 386 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: I can't leave home without it. It's you know, it's 387 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: an essential. Some women rock the lipstick, some women don't. 388 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: But now we know what's inside of it and where 389 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 1: it came from, and the fact that we've been women 390 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: as a whole have been wearing it for a really 391 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: really long time, which I think is pretty darn interesting. 392 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: It is you know, one else is neat Molly. When 393 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: we hear from our beloved listeners, that is true. So 394 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: today I would like to beat an email from Jessica. 395 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 1: You know, after we read some beer mail, our listener 396 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 1: mail about our online dating podcast, we asked for horror 397 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: stories because we were getting a lot of really good 398 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: success stories. Stories we want, we want the events. So 399 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 1: this is Jessica's and um, a guy contacted her. He 400 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: looked cute his profile match, but she was looking for 401 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: a guy. They Chad online and over the phone for 402 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks and then they met up for coffee. Now, 403 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: his profile said that he was twenty four and five 404 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: ft seven. His photograph showed him with a gorgeous dark 405 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: head of hair, friendly white smile. The guy who showed 406 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: up Kristen was five three or five four at most, balding, 407 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,479 Speaker 1: had yellow teeth, and he looked like he was in 408 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: his late thirties. Um. Now, maybe she could have gotten 409 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: over that, but he ended up spilling his coffee on her, 410 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: and that ended up being a blessing disguise because she 411 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: used it as an excuse to leave. Yeah, if you're 412 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: if you're, if you're gonna date, do the online dating. 413 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 1: Just just be honest, you know, because if you do 414 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: eventually wanted it up with someone, it's going to be 415 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: really awkward when you know you don't look like the 416 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:09,199 Speaker 1: photo taken eight years ago of you. That's true, and 417 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,719 Speaker 1: somehow you got shorter. She just don't lie. All right, 418 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: let's do one more. This is um feedback from our 419 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: podcast on High Heels, and this is from our listener 420 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: of Vanessa, who is currently living in Korea. She says 421 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,640 Speaker 1: that in Korea, women wear I possibly high heels all 422 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: the time, like we're talking wearing stilettos on the beach 423 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 1: and on the hiking trail. So apparently because these Korean 424 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: women wear high heels just all day long, they overdeveloped 425 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: their calf muscles. Now, this is something Vanessa says that 426 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 1: she would not mind, but Korean women do immensely and UM. 427 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 1: Already plastic surgery is pretty big on Korea, so now 428 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: they have this new surgery. Vanessa thinks it's pretty crazy. 429 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: Half reduction surgery. UM women paid doctors a lot of mint, 430 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: removed muscle from their legs, and it's becoming really common. 431 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 1: So everyone wants these skinny bird legs without giving up 432 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 1: the ridiculous foreign sels. Pretty insane. But here's something we 433 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: haven't done a few podcast. Vanessa also sent us her 434 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: reading list someome First up, We've Got the Beach by 435 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: Alex Garland, which was she found first pearage of the movie. 436 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 1: To The Obscure by Thomas Hardy, Focus Focused by Kurt Moneguet, 437 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: The Satanic Versus by Salmon Rushdie, and Great Expectations by 438 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: Charles Dickens.
