 Great show September 19, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Season 1 of Lipstick Jungle (7 episodes) was great. It was exciting, interesting and had great storylines. Season 2 starts just as good. Last season, the three friends experienced problems in their relationships, careers and their own friendships. By the season finale Nico and Wendy finally patched things up and friends supported Nico in a difficult situation. Episode 8 changes the path the friends will take. It was a great episode and a great start for the second season. (Although, I would have liked Nico's situation to have lasted a few more episodes.)
 Contrived, poor plot June 14, 2008
The only bright spot in this is the performance of Kim Raver. She is a great actress. She can't carry it though. The show itself is poorly thought out, doesn't follow any kind of logic, doesn't really know how strong intelligent women actually behave. Seems like it was written by and for weak witless women.
The poor man's Cashmere Mafia. March 2, 2008

Weaker character and falser plotlines than the also-in-first-season Cashmere Mafia - conflicts of femininity and career success is the battleground and Cashmere Mafia occupies all the high ground. Lipstick is forgettable, uninspired, and a mockery of its rival. Its creators aught to put this one in the win column if NBC airs the whole season, if not cutting it sooner.
Awesome Series that's Relatable to Modern, Ambitious Women February 26, 2008
As an ambitious woman in her twenties, it's refreshing to finally see powerful, accomplished, career-minded women portrayed in a real way. The plot is exciting & enticing. It's very relatable and charismatic. Not only do they portray the glamour but they portray real struggles (however dramatized of course) that contemporary, accomplished women must face. Each character portrays a women in a different phase of life, which makes the show so interesting and I feel like I've learned something that may be useful.
 So-so February 24, 2008

I watched the "free premier" on amazon unbox and was not impressed. I didn't find anything to like or hate in any of the characters...so why bother when there are so many other shows out there like Cashmere Mafia that have me captivated.
