My Latest Lip obsession!

Okay...I just can't choose between these two. But these are my latest Lip Obsessions! 



Soft lips (in strawberry) is the everyday chapstick I wear. I would either have dry or chapped lips so I always carry this around with me... but only in strawberry! Since it's my favorite flavor. And these chapsticks are just $1 at any CVS or Walgreens, they even offer three packs with 3 different flavors. It's smooth and easy to apply, not that messy or sticky, it's long wear as well. Which is my first priority when choosing Lip products! If it is not long wear, then it's not that good in quality. And what I also like about this chapstick, is that I can wear a different lip product over it. If it's lipstick, the lipstick would go on first, then the chapstick. Because if you apply the chapstick first, then it will be all gooey and messy if you try applying lipstick over it. If it's lipgloss, then I would apply the chapstick first, then top it off with the lipgloss.



Which brings me to my second lip product obsession. NARS lipgloss in Turkish Delight. Before going into this product, I just have to mention that I love pink-to-nude lip shades. Which is why it makes this lipgloss one of my obsessions. It just gives a really sweet, natural, and creamy-pink look to the lips. If you pair this lip gloss with a neutral or smokey eye makeup on, it makes a really good match. I wear this probably every other day, whenever I have to go out or run errands outside of the house. If it's not at my local ULTA, then I buy it online at Beauty.com. It's around $20, which can be a lot for a lipgloss! But it does last a good 1 to 2 months, depending on how much you use from it. The wear is good, you might have to re-apply after you eat, depending if it's a big or small meal. But besides that, it's a really good lipgloss. 



P.S. Soft Lips' also have tinted chapsticks! How cool is that? I'll write about it soon..

Tricks for Thin Small Lips - Make your lips look Fuller

Having thin lips isn't a problem, so you don't have worry so much. In fact, I myself have thin lips. But there are always some tricks that this Fashion Girl has up her sleeve.

  • Avoid Dark shades- make sure whenever wearing any lip product (such as gloss or lip stick) to avoid any dark shades, such as deep red. Which can make your lips look even thinner. So try switching to light & medium shades.
  • A great trick to use for the upper lips, to make that bounce up & curvy lip effect- apply a good high lighter along your upper lips cupid bow
  • Make the lips look fuller- by applying a good highlighter that is a tad bit lighter than your lip skin color, then apply it and line on the outer lip. This is a really good trick to use to make that fuller-lips-effect.
  • Keep the lips soft- apply some lip balm, then use a dry clean toothbrush and scrub the lips (this is like exfoliation, but for the lips.)

My Lip Stuff - Lip Balm review

Hey Everyone!

Yes, you guessed it! Another Review and Giveaway! And this one is a special one ;) one of my most favorite sites that have TON of lip products, so be sure to keep reading my experience and opinion on one of the products, and enter the special giveaway! ;)
My Lip Stuff is a really nice shop where you can find ALL TYPES of different lip products, from lip balms, to lip sticks, to even Tinted Lip gloss! And one of the things that I always look for in lip products, is good quality. (of course!) And that's exactly what I found at My Lip Stuff



Okay, so I got to try out three different Natural Lip Balms (in the image above) I got the Strawberry Milkshake, Gingerbread House, and the After Dinner Mint.
What I really like about them is that, they are easy to apply, like they have this type of oily texture that just let's you apply it smoothly on your lips and leave a good smooth feeling.
The scent is nothing strong, in fact I LOVE IT, it's so light and refreshing (one of the things I hate most is wearing a strong scented lip product that smells like cheesecake.....err..yeah.) But these have a nice light scent, simply refreshing.

Plus also to mention they have OVER 400 FLAVORS for these Natural Lip Balms....WHOA! Talk about all types of flavors! It's like a Lip Balm Wonderland, so My Lip Stuff definitely has some good variety!
I checked out the prices for these lip balms, and let me tell you one thing, have you ever bought a lip balm with such good quality....and at such a great price? $2.50! Wow...I just have to honestly say that I am in love.

My most favorite out of the Three is the Strawberry Milkshake lip balm, okay, I am OBSESSED with this one! I love it, I wear it everyday, all the time. This one I always carry around in my purse with me, or when I go out I just carry it in my clutch bag, I just simply love this flavor and I am obsessed with it.

I have to say, it's also hard choosing my next favorite, because both the Gingerbread house Lip balm and the After Dinner Mint lip balm are both great! The After dinner mint is so refreshing and so minty! And the Gingerbread house is a really "comfy at home" type of smell. It somehow reminds me of baking at Christmas, it's a really good scent, I can't really tell which of the both are my favorite.

Also remember earlier in the review I said "it has some type of oily texture" . Well guess what? I just checked the lip balm info and it says that these lip balms are made with the finest butters and oils blended to create the ultimate lip moisturizer. I was right! 

These lip balms are not sticky at ALL! so no worries about the "big sticky messes". They also last really long, so you won't have to be "re-applying" your lip balm every 5 minutes, it lasts good and long. They are clean, easy to use, and easy to store in any purse, or even your back jean pocket! 
I think I am definitely going to switch and stick to My Lip Stuff lip balms, for sure.

Oh but My Lip Stuff has tons of more products, not just Lip balms, you cannot believe how much variety they have in lip products! I can't even start to explain, don't be lazy and check it out for yourself.

Great Tips for Dry Skin! (Treatments-In-Home included!)

Hey everyonnee!!

Well I've gathered lots of tips, and cool Treatments-In-Home for those who have Dry Skin! and I am absolutely sure that these tips and in-home treatments will work and help out!

REMEMBER! This is for DRY SKIN! :)

Here We go!!
  •  Honey & Egg Yolk In-Home Treatment: get a small round cup, make a egg yolk paste-like mixture, then add 1--2 teaspoon of Milk Powder, after that to the mixture you will add 1 Teaspoon of honey into the mixture as well. (mix a bit) and you are going to apply this paste/mixture on the face (make sure your hands are clean!) [if you have any other dry skin areas, you can apply the paste/mixture on the dry skin area] You will have to wait approximately 10 to 15 minutes to let it dry, after that, rinse with cold water
  • Applying Natural Mayonnaise will also help a lot! (since the mayonnaise is made of  fats, and some protein, it helps the Dry Skin) you can rub and massage it on the skin (dry skin area) and just leave it there for probably about 15 or 20 minutes, after that you can rinse with warm water
  • Have you heard of Oil Massages? it's simple for helping out Dry skin, but to make it better and more effective you can add just a few drops of glycerine to the oil before you apply on dry skin area
  • You can also use a natural ingredient called Cocoa Butter, and just rub it around the face (or dry skin area) [use a piece of the cocoa butter!] letting it melt, this cleans out dirt, makeup, and helps smoothen the skin, after you remove it you will feel and see a result of clean and smooth :)
  • When using "For Dry Skin" Lotions try to make sure that these lotions are made of Natural Ingredients intended and used for Dry Skin. Try to NOT use hot water, soap, limestone, as this does not help out the Dry skin!
  • To keep your skin glowing and clean, it is recommended to drink a lot of water (when I mean a lot...I do not mean chug down an entire Gallon of water in a day) I mean to always keep water bottles around, and replace your soda drinks to water, trust me, you will see some improvement 
  • Hot Water Tortures Dry skin! Making it worse! If you love Hot Tubs, or taking Looong Hot Showers, but yet you want don't like Dry Skin....I am sorry to say this, but Hot Tubs and Long hot shower days are over, dry switching to Lukewarm Showers :) 
  • It's good to keep a moisturizer around, to maintain your skin soft, healthy, and happy (don't forget smooth! pshh...) A nice moisturizer I can recommend is Skin MD Natural ...which I have bought a bottle :) and did not regret it at all, trust me, after going through BOTTLe and BOTTLE at the drugstore I finally found something Useful!!!There is a Coupon Code: MBFD which is 20% OFF your order at Skin MD Natural 
  • You should also exfoliate your skin weekly, the best way to do it for Dry Skin? try brushing your skin (BEFORE SHOWER) with a body brush to remove dead and old flaky skin, but do this before shower, seriously, it is more effective and better working than scrubbing your skin and trying to exfoliate when in the shower. 
  • If your Lips are a "Dry-Skin" problem too, you should try using Lip Balm, and Chap Stick 
  • Cool Tip: "moisturize your lips with Vaseline. Take a toothbrush and "brush" your lips in a circular motion. This will remove dead flakes and leave your lips soft and supple." - Julyne Derrick
  • Flaxseed Oil is said that it improves Dry Skin condition (also helps out with eczema) 
 And That's our "Tips For Dry Skin" post for Today! :) There will be More Skin Tips tomorrow, and lots of Fun and interesting posts coming up this week!!
