While I don’t hesitate to use most kinds of makeup, you won’t often see me wearing lipstick. I have a strong paranoia that my lips are a weird shape, and lipstick only heightens it. (Using lip liner to try and even things out has not been pretty, either.) Which is why the skill that went into this gallery of intricately-decorated kissers amazes me. Take a look for yourself!

While I appreciate the time and talent that went into these, there’s something sort of freaky about them. Maybe I just feel weird staring at close-up lip shots. Though the bejeweled leopard one I could probably look at all day. And that hippo design is pretty cute. OK, maybe these aren’t too freaky after all. See even more over at the source! [via Oddee]

Which design is your favorite?
