no, but smoking and licking them alot does.Is it true that excessive use of gloss or lipsticks make the lips black?
They won't make your lips black, but they can make your lips darker, especially if you don't clean your lips properly after using lipstick. The color pigment can stain your lips, although not instantly or very rapidly.





Try scrubbing (gently of course) your lips once a week with soft toothbrush.


Or you can try lip scrubbing product which is like lipstick, but instead of coloring your lips, it scrubs away dead cells and leftover pigments.





Last but not least, lips color is genetic. And smoking contributes to darkening lips color.
Okay, I put on gloss like every 5 seconds. And my lips are fine. So no thats not true.
heck no if that where true I would have had blk lips yrs ago
NO! I wear lipstick almost Every day, and without it, my lips are Still the pink color they should be:)
how come thousands of lipstick are sold everyday? lipsticks don't blacken the lips. unless u use a black one. :)
Lipstick is a cosmetic product for the lips that is richer in color and texture than lip gloss, primarily used to apply color to the lips. Most lipsticks are red or reddish, simulating the appearance of sexual arousal, which naturally increases blood flow and reddens the lips, intending to make the wearer more sexually attractive. With modern pigments, however, lipstick is available in numerous colors and shades.





A typical lipstick contains many chemical ingredients, principally pigments, oils, waxes, and emollients. Perfume and/or flavoring may be added to cover the odors and tastes of the other ingredients.





Lipstick does not have a particular origin. However, it is known to have been used around 5000 years ago in ancient Babylon, when semi-precious jewels were crushed and applied to the lips and occasionally around the eyes. Ancient Egyptians extracted purplish-red dye from fucus-algin, 0.01% iodine, and some bromine mannite, which resulted in serious illness. Cleopatra had her lipstick made from crushed carmine beetles, which gave a deep red pigment, and ants for a base. Lipsticks with shimmering effects were initially made using a substance found in fish scales called pearlescence.





Queen Victoria declared makeup impolite because the prostitutes were usually the only ones who painted their faces. It was also forbidden to wear makeup before marriage, lest the woman tricks her husband into thinking she was beautiful, only to discover she was not.





Lipstick started to gain popularity during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, who made blood red lips and stark white faces a fashion statement. By that time, lipstick was made from a blend of beeswax and red stains from plants. During WWII, it gained the respect of the movie industry, and it became a duty for female citizens to ';put their face on';.





As with most other types of makeup, lipstick is typically, but not exclusively, worn by women. It is usually not worn until a female reaches adolescence or adulthood.





A lip duo is a combination of lipstick and lip liner.
If that was true, my lips would be blacker than a lump of coal at the bottom of an unlit mine.
