Lipstick typeface or design

I'm looking for a typeface that looks like it was written in lipstick. And if there isn't a font like that, a effect in Photoshop or Illustrator that can create that look. Thanks for any help and suggestions.

Why not just write on a whiteboard with your own lipstick?
Alternatively, you could use almost any thick handwritten font, and apply a filter in Photoshop / live trace in Illustrator

how about writing it with real lipstick on paper and then scanning that...

There must be some way out of here...

I would also suggest the DIY approach of writing it in actual lipstick, and then go about vectorizing or taking a picture of it, whichever the case may be. Might just be more of a person preference, but I would feel a much stronger sense of attachment by doing it that way. Hands on approach to something like that is also something great to achieve.

I would agree with rax and Krebstar. Real lipstick will look better and more believable if you do it your self. Good luck.
