But why now? I assume that babies' bottoms and cute pouty lil' lips have been around for a really, really long time, but past ages' standards of feminine beauty did not seize on them for the ultimate model for an adult woman's lips....Why did we? And when did it start showing up in the media? Many 20's actresses aspired to the bee-stung look, but none that I can recall seeing had puffy lips....or their other features matched their lips, so they didn't stand out....(pun intended!) ;)
