Songs About Cosmetics


Lip Gloss Song

Mac (mac) L'Oreal, yep cause +I'm worth it+
Love the way, I puts it on so perfect
Wipe, the corners of my mouth so I work it
when I walk down the hallway they cain't say nothin
Oh!, Oh! Oh! My lips so luscious
The way I spice it up with the Mac-Mac brushes
L'Oreal got them wat-ballermelon crushes
That's probably the reason all these boys got crussssshESS... (By Lil' Mama)

I think we need to start a list of music that mentions makeup and beauty products.

Here are my entries:
A little Mascara by The Replacements
Lip Gloss by Pulp
Candy Perfume Girl by Madonna
I hate Your Perfume by Guided by Voices
Magic's in the Makeup by Gwen Stefani
Perfume by Jesus and Mary Chain (there is no mention of fragrance in the lyrics)
Crush with Eyeliner by R.E.M

Do you know any that I have missed?
Let me know in the comments.

Help me out here, Blogdorf! I think there's a song called "Unpretty" -- Destiny's Child? that mentions MAC makeup!

I wanna be a girl like you

I wanna wear my face like you

Fergie: The Make Up Song

Would you love me if I didn't work out or I didn't change my natural hair?

Without the lipstick
Without the L’Oreal
You remain the same angel that I fell for
For real, for real

This is one of the best songs on her Dutchess album.

One of my faves (in German) is called "Beautycase" by the French-German group Stereo Total.

Lyrical sample:

Erste Beauty-Lektion
Duschgel, Bodylotion
24 Stunden Deo
She didn't say yes Shiseido

http://www.stereototal.de/music/lyrics_ak.html#beautycase


Here's a description from the band's website:


>"What can I do to please these >eyes? - Beautycase, ready for >action!" With this sentence the >whole record starts. "Beautycase" >is a song about a talking >beautycase. A girl is sitting >desperate in front of a mirror >and the beautycase opens up and >offers its help by naming all his >contents.

"Unpretty" (the one that mentions that "you can buy all the makeup that MAC can make" and still feel ugly) is actually by TLC.

The lyrics to Elvis Costello's "Girls Talk" start off with this: "There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder..."

Elvis Costello's "So Like Candy":

Here lie the powder and perfume
Her pretty clothes are scattered 'round the room...

Then there's the classic "These Foolish Things":

A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces...
