Facebook Wars: Guerlain and Sexual Identity
To call Guerlain’s KissKiss Gold and Diamonds lipstick the most expensive lipstick in the world may be a mistake. Sure, it’s priced at $62,000 USD, more than some houses. Sure, it comes in fifteen shades hand-selected by renowned French makeup artist Olivier Echaudemaison. Really, though, it’s the luxurious case that makes this lipstick sparkle. Literally.
A replica of Echaudemaison and designer Herve Van Der Straeten’s original 2005 KissKiss lipstick case, KissKiss Gold and Diamonds is aptly named. It’s made with 110g of solid 18-carat gold and 199 diamonds (2.2 carats in total). The case can even be engraved with your name or a personal message. So precious is this lipstick case that it comes with a black lacquered wooden case in which to store it. Furthermore, it includes a lip brush and black suede pouch. Thankfully, you won’t have to throw the extravagant lipstick case out when you’ve emptied it; it’s refillable.
This isn’t Guerlain’s first lipstick marvel. They’re also known for creating the first automatic lipstick and the first solid lipstick.
The world’s most expensive lipstick kit is only available by private appointment at Guerlain Boutiques at Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus San Francisco, The Breakers West Palm Beach and Epcot.

The Comment War
It all began with a simple sharing of this darned lipstick. I like Guerlain because my mother and sisters like it too. Simple? Not so, apparently. Real names are used to pinpoint the culprits. Miguel read this when you're 30 and not a second before then.
You are so gay, Cush.
The red lipstick suits you. *snickers*

Sorry, I prefer the shade, "nude."
wow. even i dont wear leafstix
Nude shade suits you. Matches your tan purse.
Excuse me, that's a butter caramel Birkin (oversized).
Fortich Fortich: I've moved up from Urban Decay.

Oh pardon my ignorance. Goes well with your silk, camel Hermés scarf too.
I prefer my Cheval Sur Mon Carre, Bali Barret 2006. It's a green horse print.
The first perfume my mom ever gave me was Eau D' Orange Verte. Since then I've preferred citrus scents and Veblen goods.

Dushka ka!
Dushka ka!
What's a Dushka? I guess you didn't know that I used to design denim and had my own brand while in college.
I lurve diamonds, lurve Guerlain... but for that price, I'd rather buy the ticket to Paris and visit the parfumerie itself!
Stella: Me too. Or rather, I'd buy a car.
dushka = badushka = bading
Your dragon tattoo is not a good enough smokescreen.

I'm comfortable with my sexuality. Funnily enough, one of my ex's (****) is spreading around dirt that I have a gay lover.
Maybe she took your ironic, dry humor seriously.
Daming ganyan.
Daming ganyan.
Dude, we lived in for more than a year. She was never dry.
I said you were dry not her... Ah, is that a stab at wit and humor? Sige na nga, papalampasin.
You know it floored you with it's sexual double entendre.
At my age I don't get easily floored. Pero sige na nga, pagbibigyan.
*Tere is floored*
*Tere is floored*
hmmm....nude, gay lover, never dry, sexual doubles, floored! im done for the week!
thanks urchin!
thanks urchin!
On the other hand she was 36 at the time. Bgek.
wow cush... Now i know.... :)
OMGWTFBBQ. To clear things out. I like this shit for my women! Geddemit. Wapoise.
PIMPL! *pauso* -- peed in my pants laughing (sick of ROTFL)
Well it's a stupid lipstick. And whoever shells out $62K for that is even dumber. A lipstick is a lipstick is a lipstick.
Kumain ka na lang ng Lips candy. Same effect, sweeth pa.

Let's divide the spoils girl. I hope we can gyp Dush into buying that stupid lipstick.
Dush, will you buy us that lipstick purty please? The red will bring out the auburn highlights of your pretty tresses. *bats eyelashes*

Matira matibay. Tere join BGEK! (TM).
Bgek? - I have yet to hear how that sounds in person. Okay, I will humor you. Bgek.
The only way that stupid lipstick will get my vote is if it can double as a diamond peel wand.

... or it can be used as a semaphore sa sobrang kinang...
Tere: That's a standard feature. It also doubles as a Wifi Hub. The reception is diamond.
Okay Agent 007. Konti na lang, justified na ang $62K
...Or it can pay off our national debt!
...Or it can make the woman be 'a beauty to be revealed; and a princess taking part of an epic adventure.'
FAIL!

Moled Midget. Haha EPIC. Makes our president sound like a Mexican dish redux.
yes your royal dushkin!
Haha that sounds so gay, Dush.
I don't agree on the lipstick paying for our national debt. It's a waste of a pretty thing. Yung mga fugly politicos na lang ipambayad natin for that.

Since we're on the topic of Veblen goods. What bag/purse do you guys lust for anyhow? Isa, isa lang ha.
but...but...but...the plan is to lace the purty lipztix with fatal potion! the moled midget will drop dead, head first! its a bgek plan hun!
Carlerm: Dude, you lost me. Let's just discuss pretty things first. I'm a lover not a fighter (palibhasa nasa Hong Kong ka at galit na galit mga kababayan natin diyan).
Pwede ang plan na yan for the moled midget.
Dush, I will only approve of the $62T if the lipstick stays on for life.
Next question please- I don't buy Veblen goods. It's for the insecure and shallow.

Tere: Yeah right. You don't have any Gucci, Cartier, Prada, etc... in your closet? Nagseseminar tayo naka Gucci ka pa eh.
Veblen your face!
Veblen your face!
Donations lang yun sa kin. Isa akong dukha.
Apir! Ako rin. Love me and feed me...and for God's sake clothe me. (A Knight's Tale reference).
Apir- hindi ko alam kung matatawa ko dahil tunog dushka ka o dahil napaka 70s ng term na ito. PIMPL.
Kailan ba tayo ipinanganak aber?
Batsi na tayo, may dumadating na parak.
1977. May point ang dushka.
Sige, mahirap nang mahuli ng mga pigoy. Batsi na, repapips.

At ano naman yang pautot na yan?!?
hahaha....pagdating sa edad, bilis sumibat ang dush bgek gang! ayos!
Thanks for the PM. I'm a proponent of the Bgek Ideology even before it was born.
Maricar- baka bumatsi para mag diamond peel gamit ang Guerlain lipstick (nang di mahalata ang edad).
hahaha...clever and purty girl!
Carlerm and Tere: Go get a room.
shut up u dush!
And satisfy your fantasies? I'm not falling for that ploy, Dush.
Don't forget these key words sweetie: Guerlain’s KissKiss Gold and Diamonds lipstick. Winner take all.
i wont mind kissin a girl for that! did i win???? did i? DID I?
;) :p
;) :p
Carlerm: It must be consensual and on .AVI format; ala Mocha.
Hello? *tumbleweed passes by.*
Hahaha may tumbleweed ka pang nalalaman. Very Western film.
Panibagong usapan naman- sabihin mo sa madla ang paborito mong sapatos- Stiletto o ballet flats?

Strip. Now. Prove you're not.

Matagal na kong out, Dush. High school pa lang. At 4 pa lang ako, tanggap na ng mga magulang ko ang pagka-bakla ko.
May nickname pa ko nung HS, pero hindi ko sasabihin. Sabihin na lang nating ang inspirasyon ay isa sa mga awitin ng VST.

Strip ka diyan. Bakla ako, hindi uto-uto.
Nosebleed.
Pahiram ko sa 'yo pink pashmina ko, na sa kasalukuyang nakabalabal sa king ulo.
Ano ka? Lamp? Hindi ka naman magpapatalo eh, halika rito, 'let's kiss and make up.'
Ahehe. Make up.
Ahehe. Make up.
ROTFL.
Ayaw mo maniwala? Ikaw ang pumunta dito- lahat kasi ng AC vents nakatapat sa ulunan namin kaya ilang araw nang may naka balabal sa ulo ko. Matalino kasi nag-design ng opisina.
Sa di sinasadyang pagkakataon, napauso ko ang "Jihad Chic".

I have a blood brother named Jihad, he's not a chic. Kindly switch back to English so our foreign readership may relate. Mahina kita--lugi negosyo.
Ah ganun ba? Sige, i-pagpag ang P500 sa computer nang lumakas ang benta.
Umamin ka, ikaw ang hindi marunong managalog kaya gusto mong bumalik tayo sa wikang banyaga. Akala ko ba ang idelohiya ng Bgek ay para sa mga tunay na multi-lingual, at hindi lamang "code switching"? Sige, para sa yo, titigil na kong magsalita sa 'ting katutubong wika.

Binibining Ibañez, ukol sa iyong pananaw, masasabi ko na hindi makatuwiran ang iyong ipinapahiwatig. Bagama't sa Ika-limang baitang ng mababang paaralan ng Ateneo de Manila ko lamang natutunan ang wikang pambansa--ikinalulugod kong ipagmalaki na kahit paano lumalalim ang batis ng aking kaalaman ukol sa salita ng aking mga ninuno (puwera ang mga ... Read Moreaking ninunong Tsino na nagtiyagang makipagsapalaran at magnegosyo dito sa lungsod ng Pasig.
Ikinalulugod kong ipahiwatig ko sa iyo ang aking pananaw ukol sa kasalukuyang pakikipagbalitaktakan natin. Ito ay dahil nais kong iparamdam sa iyo na kailangan na natin humunos-dili. Bgek.
Nagpapasalamat ako na hindi ako kumuha ng Humanidades o Sining Komunikasyon noon sa ating taus-pusong minamahal na Unibersidad sapagka't kung ganon ang nangyari ay hindi ko na alam kung saan ako pupulutin oh kung anong edisyon ng Abante ang itatakip sa aking mistulang nakangiting bangkay na rumaragasa ang dugo galing sa ilong. Hindi na pala kasya, pakshet.

You're over-the-top! I'm shaking with laughter.
Marunong din ako maglaba.
