Rapper Sexyy Red’s new lip gloss line may be the most cringe-worthy cosmetic effort yet.
Celebrities such as Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Kylie Jenner, and others have built a name for themselves with popular cosmetics brands, leading to a surge in the industry.
But when it comes to Sexyy Red’s latest project, “Northside Princess,” we’re left puzzling our brains and perhaps cringing a touch.
Here’s the tea. Sexyy Red recently debuted her updated lip gloss range, and let’s just say the hue names are neither inviting nor exciting. We’re not talking about the conventional Coral Crush and Midnight Plum.
No, these names are not your standard beauty jargon. With names like Coochie Juice, Yellow Discharge, Bootyhole Brown, S*x on My Period, and Gonorrhea, the brand has caused a wave of disappointment and confusion.
In an August 19 Instagram post,
the 26-year-old rapper announced her revamped lip gloss line, Northside Princess, with a series of photos she captioned, “BO$$ LADY SPEAKIN 🗣️… New and improved @sexyyred_products is back better den eva !!”
@ratedpaulie took to X: “And just like that you made your brand a joke novelty that will be purchased once as a “lol” rather than a marketable brand. Y’all literally have Rihanna as a successful blue print and you did this … yikes”
@mazzsterr wrote: “As a parent, this is beyond disappointing. How can you push this trash on to society, especially knowing that young kids look up to you?
“What happened to setting a positive example? This isn’t empowerment; it’s degrading. Our community deserves better than this nonsense.”
@udopiatyrell also wrote: “One thing is to make ratchet hoodrat music that slaps at the club or the party, I get that … it’s entertainment …
“But literally ‘p****hole pink’, ‘bootyhole brown’, ‘discharge yellow’ … this is the stuff that’s gonna be available at the store? You’ve got to be kidding me. New societal low: UNLOCKED🤡.”
