Putting on a bit of lipstick is one of life's simplest ways to dress up, but when it comes to snacking on your lipstick while you're at it, things can get a little confusing. So the news that KFC is going to launch hot wing flavored lipstick is frankly the news that chicken lovers have been waiting for.
The announcement comes in celebration of this year's National Lipstick Day and National Chicken Wings Day, which fall on the same day, July 29. KFC has launched this lipstick, called "Bucket Red No 11," that tastes exactly like when you chew on hot chicken wings. A mixture of distilled hot wings and chili oil. This might sound a little...well, gross to you, but you can't deny that the shade of red on the KFC bucket is completely divine.
Aware that those who choose to purchase this lipstick may be craving a bite of the brand's signature chicken wings, KFC also conducted some durability testing on respondents wearing the Bucket Red No 11.
The results are in, and they claim that 100% of the subjects were able to eat two chicken wings and walk away with a perfect pout, which means the product is advertised as "WingProof."
"Not only does it taste delicious, but it also features new eight-hour conditioning and anti-fouling technology, which means it lasts longer in KFC wings," a KFC spokesperson said, according to Metro , adding that the product is "anti-deformation surface” and “gives you the freedom to apply lipstick and enjoy your wings.”
Next question, where on earth do you get this greasy hand? Is it in stock at Superdrug? Or do you need to travel to Selfridges in person? The good news is they're free at KFC, but the bad news is there are only 400 copies available, which makes it a bit of a collector's item. All you have to do is sign up for the KFC Colonel's Club and you'll receive an email to enter the lipstick sweepstakes. The deadline for entries is August 11th, so make sure you have a chance to win.
