Cosmo Sends Kisses To The Troops, Seeks to Create World Record

In honor of Veteran’s Day, Cosmopolitan magazine and Maybelline New York teamed up to create a new Guinness Book world record: most kisses collected in a day. For seven hours, the Cosmo van drove around to various parts of Manhattan and encouraged onlookers to come inside and write a message on a postcard to American troops overseas, then try on one of 42 shades of lipstick and kiss the card. The cards will be sent by the USO to the soldiers, who are expected to receive them on January 1 — a New Year’s kiss without any worries of swine flu.
