You don't have to be a "prude" to have more respect for yourself than some retailers do.

@RedRedHairI was raised in a household where I never heard a loud voice or inappropriate language (lots of grammatical corrections but not "swear" words).  I think, as a result of this, I just never felt the need (but have felt the emotion) to resort to inappropriate language. I have seen small children using it, not knowing the connotation but realizing it will get a reaction. If it was my child, I would certainly be finding out why there is a reason for this type of expression.  It doesn't shock me, but it seems to be a need for sensationalism or "look at me".  Which fits right in with advertising strategies.  I just don't pay any attention to it.

Must confess I occasionally use it when I am very angry but I do try and hold my tongue especially around my grandson. No swearing around him.

As far as using the F bomb to name a lipstick, it is just stupid and while not offensive to me, it isn't a marketing technique that would make me want to buy it.

I remember once years ago my son asked me why dad never swore. I can honestly say after knowing my husband since 1973, I have never heard him swear. I asked him why recently and he said he was taught not to by his dad, who said it was offensive to swear around women and children.

I have a bunch of co-workers who use it in every other sentence.  It's a shame people feel the need to use it continually.  And these people are all under the age of 30.

versatile word ...can be used as a noun, verb,  adjective, adverb or an interjection

TF has FU money, seriously doubt he cares much about offending women especially those who wouldn't dream of paying $50+ for his red lippies...

I would not buy any product from anyone who feels the need to use disgusting words to name the product.  I don't think it's cute, and it doesn't sound healthy.

Of course I was curious, so I googled it. It is a really deep red, and it is 60.00. I wouldn't pay that for a lipstick no matter what you call it, but the name doesn't really bother me.

Has NOTHING to do with being a prude.  It's about respecting yourself and others.  And  having some class.

I’m certainly no prude, I just find it ‘old and tired’.   

Don’t they have marketing people who could think of something new and fresh?  It’s as if they couldn’t be bothered to make a creative effort.  I find THAT insulting.

It is way too dated to be a Bomb, more like a tiny piffit.
