In honor of No-Shave-November, I thought I would come up with the top 5 lip ticklers of all time. These hair snakes are as iconic as they are timeless. Veritable screen legends themselves, these five soup strainers, or cookie dusters top the list, although there are some quite impressive competitors in this nose mane list. Without further ado, here they are.
Brolin's stache in No Country for Old Men is the logical choice over his other championship caliber entries from American Gangster and Planet Terror. 2007 was a great year for this facial hair farmer.
Jason Patric from Narc is probably the coolest Fu Manchu in recent movie history. It probably helps that he is a Narcotics Detective with a past drug problem. Classic film facial ornamentation.
Burt. Need I say more? The hair bandit himself is probably more famous for his lady pleaser than his sub-par acting. Although Smokey and the Bandit may not be his greatest facial display, it is memorable nonetheless.
Who can think about mustaches without visualizing the gravelly-voiced Sam Elliott? Roadhouse, Tombstone, Big Lebowski. His nasal caterpillar is a staple of his craft, and although it is difficult to decide on the particular role, I have to go with Tombstone. Appropriate and classy, like the gentleman Elliott is.
The champion of the dustbuster is an upset. You would think Tom Selleck or Hulk Hogan? Perhaps Borat or Ron Burgandy? No. Although impressive in their own right, the winner is Daniel Day-Lewis. As brilliant as his acting, his facial concoctions dazzled audiences in both There Will be Blood as well as Gangs of New York. A huge fan of Lewis, I had to choose Gangs of New York on pure girth. The beautifully upturned handles with just a hint of wax are follically charged art. What makes his victory all the more impressive is that he does not sport the stache when he is not in character. A typically clean-shaven man, he has some of the best facial farming potential of any actor in his league.
I hope you enjoy, and I welcome your comments and disagreements.

As impressive as these examples of facial hair may be, it is no fun to kiss a man with loads of extra facial hair.
I wouldn't know about the whole kissing man thing - sorry.
