I saw this on The Sun and it looks pretty crazy...it's mood lipstick! I'm not totally sold on it working correctly (mostly because I was so frustrated with mood rings not working when I was little) but it would still be interesting to have your shade of lipstick change throughout the day.
A NEW lipstick has gone on sale that shows when women are in the mood for sex.
The saucy slap changes from clear to deep crimson as the wearer feels frisky.
It works by reacting with a girl's body chemistry.
And each £12 tube comes with a colour chart so men can work out how randy their partner is feeling.
Reactive ... new gloss
The Mood Swing Emotionally Activated Lip Gloss was invented in California.
A spokesman for makers Too Faced said: "The colours change depending on your emotional state."
Celeb fans include singer Katy Perry, engaged to randy funnyman Russell Brand.
Dating expert Lorraine Adams said: "This is the ultimate date ice-breaker.
"But using it every day could get embarrassing. Would you really want the man next to you on the bus to know if you're turned on?"
Ditto GD - I remember this from the 80s I think. They just turned bright pink and kind of stained your lips unattractively. This looks like a different formula. The old ones were light green in the tube.
I had mood lipstick in 5th grade. I can't believe someone out there still makes it. I think mine was wet n' wild or a similar brand.
True that! And the technology reacts to body heat so it gets red when you're "hot" but isn't everyone's mouth hot?
Nars tried to do this in a chic-er, more expensive way with O gloss.
O-GLOSS Intuitive Lip Gloss With Goji Berry-C Complex What it is: A naturally pink-hued lip gloss.
What it does: Get a shiny pink pout all your own! This intuitive silky gloss reacts with your personal skin chemistry to transform from clear into your own custom shade of pink.
This sort of reminds me of the Dior Addict Lip Glow, which "responds to the color chemistry of your lips to create a shade that is uniquely yours." Sounds like the same thing. I have the Dior version, and it's pretty much always the same shade on me.
Funny - I just bought a mood ring on etsy! I had that Wet n Wild mood lipstick too!

Oh that sounds kind of fun but how will the guy know what shade means what? It might be something fun to ask for around my birthday when I never know what to tell people to get me but I'm not sure I'd buy it myself.
