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, โBO$$ LADY SPEAKIN ๐ฃ๏ธโฆ. New and improved @sexyyred_products is back better den eva !!โ
Although it may seem like a no brainer for someone who goes by the name Sexyy Red to jump into the makeup game, the always-provocative rapper is pushing the envelope with this line and causing some to say her new products are anything but sexy.
With shade names like โCoochie Juice,โ โYellow Dischargeโ and โGonorrhea,โ you might be a little embarrassed to ask for these glosses at your local Sephora or Ulta store.
Some die-hard Sexxy Red fans shared that they canโt wait to get their hands on the new and improved line.
โWhere I can purchase that set of glosses!!! I need them in my life!โ wrote one commenter.
โGo sexyyyy ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅโ wrote another.
But others questioned the questionable shade names in the comments of her post.
โI wanted them until I saw the names ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญโ wrote someone.
โCome on now itโs getting hard to Defend you ๐ฉ,โ wrote another.
Other commenters took it a step further, calling on the โGet it Sexyyโ artist to set a better example for her young fans.
โStop! Do better! I get it, its an easy way to make MONEY BUT show the world that you are a classy, intelligent Black woman! Be a woman kids can look up to! You have the platform, use it wisely!โ wrote someone.
Whether you think the names are marketing genius or completely disgusting, one thingโs for sure โ Sexyy Red has plenty of people talking.
