Man, I loved this stuff as a kid.

Oh, yeah. I had this... fucking sticki-ass stuff. Hated it so much, it gave me strength to not bow down to peer pressure and follow stupid fashion trends :P

I liked these.

Well, I liked to eat these, anyway.

IKR? I saw those little bottles and I was in junior high again! Not typically a good thing, but fun stuff like this made it slightly more bearable. :)

This was the only makeup I was allowed to have! (And Love's Fresh Lemon for perfume.) It was sticky, and probably nasty to adult tastes, but my eighth-grade self loved it.

Thanks to you, I've learned something today! I had no idea that there were any other perfumes under the 'Love's' label than "Love's Baby Soft".

To this day, lemon-scented anything smells like junior high to me. That's quite a burden on lemons.

I don't know if Baby Soft and Fresh Lemon were the only two, but I can't think of a third.

I looked the perfumes up whilst commenting earlier, and there were four, apparently-- the Fresh Lemon, the Baby Soft, plus a jasmine and a rainforest scent. I won't link it due to LJ's spam filter, but you can find more in a write-up at nst perfume dot com (just enter it all without spaces, and search "love's fresh lemon" at the site.)
