Shouldn't it be plural? Lip-sticks are not flour. 45.250.252.164 23:26, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, it shouldn't. "Lipstick" is a mass noun, like "flour" or "clothing". The individual objects used to apply lipstick are idiomatically "sticks of lipstick" (like "bags of flour" or "articles of clothing"), but the category refers to both those objects and to people wearing lipstick.
