Lipstick Font

My lipstick font was created by the need for a great signature for my website. I wanted something feminine and flirty at the same time. I chose to use lipstick as my tool because it has great texture and what it implies is extremely feminine. I used a pretty, cursive writing to accomplish this font. I used no serifs, it would have been impossible to use serifs with lipstick. It would have looked blurred and messy. This font is humanistic in the sense that I literally handwrote each of these letters and numbers. This font is also quite assymetrical. Some of the letters hang well below the bottom line and some go way above the top line. With humanistic handwriting and signatures typically the capital letter is quite a bit larger than the lower case. With my font this is seen. I plan on using this font to create a signature that I will use as a logo for my business website. It is going to look amazing!
