Mary Kay Lipstick Sales Up In Tough Economy

Written by L J on July 21, 2008 – 9:53 am -

See? Just like your Mary Kay director told you.

Even when the economy is iffy, women buy lipstick.

Mary Kay Inc. reports that lipstick sales for the first six months of 2008 is up 60% over the same period in 2007.

“That tells me that more women are buying lipstick during these tough economic times,” said Rhonda Shasteen, Mary Kay’s senior vice president of corporate brand strategy.

“A woman needs something positive to brighten her day, and a $10 or $15 lipstick will do that,” she said.
