… ladies, what do you call that lipstick style? Seems like she paints her lips _above_ that little bow-curve, not right on it, if I’m explaining myself correctly? I’m not being critical. On the contrary, it looks great on her, but I have seen some ladies lately who just aren’t able to pull it off.

One cute lady that works at the pharmacy I use does that, and it looks awful. First, she has fair skin, blond hair and the color lipstick she uses is like Coca Cola Red.

So anyway, she applies that color above the lips like Marisa, but she winds up looking like Lucille Ball, and I wish she wouldn’t do that, because it makes her look like a clown.

So again, are we guys gonna see more of that, cause I don’t really like it that much, just like I don’t like those bee-sting lips.😛

**D** said I could write this.🙂

Thanks

No comment about lipstick, but her name is Mariska and one of the cable channels has started running first-season SVU episodes. She’s still hot, but ten years ago was quite a bit hotter.

Jayne Mansfield and Mickey Hargitay’s daughter, I believe, **Bryan**? I read somewhere, that John Lennon may have had an encounter with Mom prior to her decapitation, and that JM didn’t fit the classic dumb blonde image.

Thanks for the correction

No opinion on lipstick here either, but the idea that Jayne Mansfield was decapitated in the fatal car accident is a myth.

Mariska’s birth father was probably Italian actor Nelson Sardelli, though Mickey raised her and was a wonderful father.

While “decapitated” might be a misnomer, the Snopes article very clearly says the top of her head was lopped off in the crash. Which is close enough for government work.

On point: I think she does it because she naturally has a thin upper lip, and lining just outside the natural lip line makes it look fuller. It’s not a trend you need to worry about 🙂

But she **tried** to. Immense boobs helped immensely.
