Max Factor, 1964 (etc)

A post of pink!

Oxymorons R Us!

It's different from any lipstick you've ever known!
Max Factor - 19590525 Life





This is a bit... blatant.  What's worse, the pose, or the outfit.

Pink and orange.  Boy that brings back memories.  Our local House of Pies used to be done entirely in that combo.

#1 What is so reckless about pastel pink? There's a whole lot of baby girls out there livin' on the edge!

#2 Why is she holding a white lipstick, when she's wearing red?

#3 NGL, I love the outfits on both of them. Swingin' mod!

#4 Reminds me of Denny's, and gives me a slight headache at the same time.

Re: #2: It might be a sheer glittery gloss to go over the red?

#1 The copy seems to have recognized the problem that pastel pink isn't all that reckless, but their counter arguments aren't all that convincing even though they try quite hard: "Only the brave could look this fair." Yeah, right.

That was my thought too. They really did try to make it work. It was kinda cute. :)

1) Hey, watch it with that thing!

2) "Warning: Using this lipstick may cause glitter showers."

3) Dude: "And so do I."

4) Someone's trying to break into the awesome hat party.

I love pink!

#3 I want that pattern in leggings, not so much the rest of the outfit, just leggings or tights.

Love these!

Iridescent lady, you look so pretty and I wish I was going wherever you're going. Stork Club? Rainbow Room? *sigh*

Actually, pink and orange is my favorite color combination. I consider pink a neutral, and my favorite color is orange, so there you go. #not what you'd call colorshy

The only thing that's brave and reckless in the first ad is her petal dress/fencing epee combo.

1 ~ Uh, what? LOL

2 ~ I'd totally wear the purplish lipstick with the pearly white over it. I think it would look super cute.

3 ~ Her outfit hurts my eyes, omg.

4 ~ The whole darn thing hurts my eyes! So bright!
