Good Idea or Bad Idea: A Funnel Cake Lip Gloss?
Lip Smackers has always been the closest thing in the beauty industry to junk food - witness their cult classic Dr. Pepper and Skittles lip balms as proof - but even their sugar-drenched balms didn't prepare us for this new addition: For Spring, Lip Smackers introduces a Funnel Cake lip gloss, with a "scented" nail polish to match.

It's part of their new "Bright Duos" collection, which pairs matching carnival-themed balms and nail colors. The flavors are Sno Cone (a bright blue), Lollipop (a true red), Confetti (a light purple), and the bright pink Funnel Cake that we can't quite get over. (Also, we're used to calling it "fried dough," but whatever.)

Is this new confection cosmetic a good idea... or a recipe for sugar shock?
