One of my favorite checkout clerks had some lipstick on two of her teeth.

Should I have said something?

[Aristus]

1. Nah. It would only have embarrassed her.

2. Won't she be embarrassed when she gets home?

3. she can think no one saw it

if you tell her, she'll know people saw it.

7. There's no embarrassment over something that happens so commonly

Though she might be slightly embarrassed to discover later that she went all day like that. But mostly she'd probably be disappointed that no one cared enough or was kind enough to give her a heads-up.

10. Yes, I was going to mention that, but felt I was being over sensitive.

That's exactly how I would feel.

4. I would have said something

I would rather have someone tell me these things. I usually try to.

5. If that was me...

I would appreciate being told, if done discreetly. I would be grateful. (I'm female)

[Skittles]

6. yes

8. At least she had two teeth!

Give credit where credit is due.

9. Sure, if you're friendly why not. A simple 'You've got a bit of lipstick on your teeth"

would be more appreciated than you realize. I always hate it when I get home, or see myself in a mirror and notice I buttoned my blouse wrong, or L/s on my teeth, or the label on my shirt is sticking out in the back etc and no one told me. I always mention something to my friends in those situations, and even to people I don't know. In 20 seconds they'll forget you even mentioned it.
