KFC's Food-Flavored Lipstick is Said to Taste Like Hot Wings
Laura McQuarrie — July 30, 2020 — Unique
Previously, KFC has launched nail polish products, bath salts and lotions that share the scents and tastes of its menu items and the fried chicken chain is now introducing a food-flavored lipstick inspired by hot wings. The hot wing-flavored lipstick dropped on National Lipstick Day and National Wing Day—which coincidentally happen to be on the same day.
Bucket Red No 11 is designed to taste just like eating a bucket of hot and spicy chicken. As some kinds of lipstick are prone to wearing off during eating, this was also a consideration for the product development team, who developed a "WingProof" formula that's designed to last while eating a pair of wings.
Just 400 of the special KFC lipsticks are being made available to members of the KFC's Colonel Club for a limited time.
