       BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWING 
       FIG. I depicts the pendant(s) as it would be worn with out being opened around the neck. Inside is the lipstick. 
       FIG. II depicts the pendant(s) slightly opened. Inside the upper part of the pendant(s) is a casing to protect the lipstick, and below is the part that holds the lipstick that has been inserted for the utility use just like a regular lipstick to be applied to the lips. 
       FIG. III depicts what the pendant(s) looks like when the bottom part has been pulled away from the inner clips of the upper part of the pendant(s) in order to apply the lipstick. 
       FIG. IV is the backside of the bottom of the pendant(s) which has a dial that is used to turn the sheath that covers the lipstick (just like any ordinary tube of lipstick is usually turned by hand) to move the lipstick up and down within the bottom part of the pendant(s). 
       FIG. V is the box for the extra shades of lipstick (can be three or more). The front has a handle to pull open the front to select your choice of lipstick. Each lipstick has a clear plastic cover to protect the lipstick in the box. 
       FIG. VI is just a few examples since the design of the pendant(s) is only a concept design. The pendant(s) can vary in length, color, size, shape, and material type, etc. This will be based on the design of each pendant(s). The drawings are not inclusive of all types of pendant(s), but are only samples of a type that may be designed, manufactured, and made available to consumers. 
     
    
    
     The utility pendant(s) design samples are essentially the essence of this invention. However, it is not limited to the exact design of the drawing samples. The only anticipated change would be cosmetic in nature.
