These cute little balms pack a lot of goodness in a tiny round sphere. I really like this packaging because I don’t have to dip my fingers into a messy jar, plus it’s easier to find in the deep dark nether regions of my purse. The flavors alone with hook you immediately:  summer fruit  lemon drop spf 15  strawberry sorbet  honeysuckle honeydew  medicated tangerine  sweet mint  pomegranate raspberry  - These miniature [...]

Review: bareMinerals Remix Loud and Clear Lip Sheer Review

2013-01-02 04.47.44 (480x360)

With the launch of bareMinerals Remix Collection earlier this month, we were introduced to  a new lip product, Loud & Clear Lip Sheer ($15).

One of my New Year’s resolutions was to institute a moratorium on lipsticks and/or lip glosses for a few months. I have so many I can’t even keep track and obviously they don’t all get used–some just sit in a drawer. I did a little research for this post and I hate to admit it, [...]

She asked her closest friends, Tracy, Bekah and Katie what their favorite flavors were and then developed stories that represented [...]

Win It! Perfect Lips From 3Labs!

Maintaining youthful looking lips is a common problem we “mature” women face–I know I do. My upper lip has always been thin and as I age the fine lines in my lips show more too. If I wasn’t such a baby and so cheap I would probably get a filler but the last thing I want is a trout [...]

Frugal Friday – glo-minerals The Cherry Balm

  For the most part I like to think of myself as dainty and feminine. I like tall men so that my 5′ 8″ frame can feel tiny and small. I’m a girly girl not a tomboy. However, there are some things that should be oversized; a rain coat, popcorn in a movie theatre, sumo wrestlers, [...]
