The Lip Service (リップサービス?, lit.: "Lip Service") is a treasure found in Pikmin 2. It is actually a tube of lipstick. It is found on the second sublevel of the Citadel of Spiders in the US and European versions. (The Japanese version has the Family Raft in the same place.) Fiery Dweevils and Yellow Wollywogs may intercept the Pikmin carrying this treasure, so to collect the treasure safely, those enemies should be defeated first.

The expression "lip service" is used when someone says something others want to hear, regardless of its factual value.

Notes

Olimar's journal

I've never had much desire to climb the corporate ladder, but I'm beginning to think I should. Every year that my kids grow older, they get more expensive. Taking care of them is my most important duty. I should take lessons from the ship on how to be a high-pressure salesman. Then I'd rake in the cash!

Sales pitch

What is wrong with the delicate dance of beautification, flattery, and flirtation? What, I ask? If it makes life more fun, keep it up! Come on! Buy yours today!
