New Product Watch: Saaphyri's Lip Chap

So, uh, apparently one of the girls from Flavor of Love 2 is launching a business venture. Saaphyri Windsor, who won the FOL spawn and Monique-helmed Charm School, is launching her own line of "Lip Chap" balm (flavors include vanilla, mojito peach and cookie dough, among others). I found this explanation (verbatim) on her website:

SAAPHYRI IS KNOWN AS THE "ONLY" GIRL NOT TO RECIEVE A NICKNAME FROM FLAVOR FLAV, BECAUSE SHE GOT INTO A FIGHT WITH ANOTHER CONTESTANT WITHIN MINS OF ENTERING THE MANSION ON FLAVOR OF LOVE 2...WHICH LEAD TO REALITY TELEVISION HISTORY WHEN SHE SAID TO THE GIRL "DO YOU WANT SOME LIP CHAP" WHICH WAS INSPIRATION TO LAUNCH THE OFFICIAL LIPCHAP PRODUCT.

Did you hear that? You can be part of reality show history! That's like, one degree of separation from the Flav himself.

There's a promotional video, but I refuse to embed the video on Chaptastic lest we all end up with mysterious mouth sores and a burning sensation tomorrow morning.

Okay, maybe that's harsh. I mean, the girl does elevate lip balm to new, erotic heights that I had never considered (terrific idea: lip balm vibrator). And she's collecting money through her line of weaves to help people with alopecia. But maybe...could you...just cover up a little? And stop treating the lip balm like you're trying to seduce it? And maybe stop licking your lips so much? Thanks.

A tube of newly exported Nivea (née Labello) for the first person to try Lip Chap and report back.

I feel dirty now that I watched that.

WOW.

There is nothing that would make me buy Lip Chap.

Jesus. I'm going to take a hot shower with an SOS pad.

So...am I the only one that thinks the pictures of her on her website are very Latoya Jackson-esque?

Get ready to give up the Nivea! I got FOUR of Saaphyri Lip Chaps, in Mojito, Pina Colada, Cookie Dough, and Green Apple. They're actually really good--it's high quality stuff. Apricot, jojoba and soy oils, aloe vera, and vitamin e and an SPF 15. The scent isn't overpowering, and they're colorless and non-sticky. Girlfriend works in the beauty industry, so it shouldn't be too surprising that she put a good product on the market! ;-)
