Creative Lipstick Shades

Martha, I know we had a talk about this before, but there are some other lipstick names that I want to share with you.

You and your lipsticks.

Look, listen, listen.

I don’t like puns.

I don’t have a need for lipstick.

My wife doesn’t wear makeup.

I’m just saying.

This stuff is interesting.

Somebody, Melanin of Troy.

Melanin of Troy.

Melanin of Troy.

And two, based on the word mauve.

Mauve is mauve.

I say mauve.

Do you say mauve?

I say mauve.

Mauve.

Two, based on the word M-A-U-V-E.

Mauving to, moving to, mauving to Manitoba.

Marvelous memories, terrible stuff.

And here, don’t Socrates me.

Oh, please.

And this one I don’t even get at all.

Down to my last penny.

What are you buying then?

You’re buying like beeswax with a little bit of pencil shavings in it, right?

It’s the cheapest thing on the counter.

You’re broke.

You’re like, I’ll just take that one for a nickel.

It’s not like something that’s copper colored or something?

I mean, I’ve had a little more experience with this stuff than you.

I bet it is.

Yeah, I bet it’s got some kind of like super-duper shine to it, right?

Well, you know what?

Maybe they should try using the paint chip names for the lipstick names.

I mean, what about Discovery or Rain Tree?

What in the heck?

Wagon Wheel.

Wagon Wheel.

Do you put that on your lips or do you put that on your wall?

That’s a punishment, right?

Don’t you strap somebody to a wagon wheel as a form of punishment?

I’m not putting that on my wall, but I assume that’s some kind of southwestern color, right?

I think it’s sort of a brown, sort of a chocolate brown.

Yeah, that’s the thing is they all kind of boil down to just like brown, white.

I’ll take the brown.
