Subject: Lip gloss trivia
Friends of mine out in the Midwest are having a heated debate about lip gloss of the '70s and '80s, and they have called on me for my expertise. I need your help.
Do any of you remember the compact metal tins that had a slide-off lid that exposed compartments of flavored lip gloss? Do you know the name? I think they had an old-fashioned Ye Olde Shoppe typeface.

Oh my gosh, I believe I actually HAD something like that when I was a kid. Gosh! This is going to bug me all day long!

This just in from Duluth, Minn.......
Alright everyone... drum roll please... the answer to the trivia question that has been haunting us for days is........
"Village Moisturizing Lip Lickers Lip Balm".
I'd personally like to thank my co-worker Nikki who has kept memorabilia from the past years for providing us with an empty container.

Out in California, we all had to have "Lipsmackers" by Bonne Bell. They were these huge, chunky sticks flavored like bubblegum, Dr. Pepper, strawberry, etc. Remember those?
