Ladies of Ohio State, it is time to pucker up if you think you have the softest lips in Columbus.

Today on the Oval, representatives from Softlips lip conditioner will team up with the Ohio State Dance Team to host an open call model search to find the woman on campus with the best “picture perfect lips.”

The event will take place on the Oval today from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and all Columbus women over the age of 18 are invited to stop by and have their picture taken by a professional photographer and receive free samples of Softlips products .

“You can bring friends or your sorority sisters and have fun before you go to class,” said Jessica Chinn, CO-Captain of the Ohio State Dance Team. “It is different than most of the things you can do on campus.”

The Ohio State Dance Team is the university’s competitive dance team that performs at many varsity athletic events, including men’s and women’s basketball games.

“Our next school performance is at Ohio State’s Homecoming,” said Jenny Webster, secretary of the team. “We will be in the parade and performing in the pep really on the south oval Friday night before the Minnesota game.”

“We’re getting involved in a lot more fundraisers and community events this year, putting ourselves out there,” Chinn said. “We want the student body to know who we are; we have a lot of school spirit already at Ohio State, we just want to increase it.”

“Everyone should stop by because it will be a lot of fun,” said Rachel Colley, a representative for Softlips. “You don’t have to enter the contest to get a sample, but obviously you can’t win the prize if you don’t enter.” The woman judged to have the best lips in Columbus will receive a $250 gift certificate to The Ohio State University Store at Barnes and Noble/Long’s.

All women who have their photo taken on the Oval today will also be entered in Softlips’ national competition. The winner of Softlip’s national “Picture Perfect Lips” search will win a $1,000 cash prize and become the new face of their print advertisement campaign. “This is a life changing thing; the winner will suddenly become a model,” Colley said.

Anyone who is interested in the national search can enter online or via mail, and more information about the rules and guidelines can be found at softlips.com.
