DIY lip scrubs...
i'm all about a great product but why spend upwards of $20 on a lip scrub
when you can make one at home - using things right in your pantry
(i actually use something similar to this on my hands and nails & i can assure it softens)
1 teaspoon of honey
1 teaspoon of baking soda
2-3 drops of olive oil - you can use coconut oil as well!
mix all the ingredients until it forms a paste
apply the mixture on your lips and leave it on for about 5-7 minutes
then gently rub it in to remove the dead skin
remember you can always make in bigger batches -and store in an old baby food jar.
match your hue...
picking the best shade to match your hair & eyes is truly a science.
which i have learned a bit about through my own trial and error.
don't be shy to go to your local sephora and ask them to help you choose.

so many make up artists will tell you their best colors
are combinations of glosses & stains
coral is a balance between warm and cool
and looks best on all skin types.
fuschia is a great move away from pink but beware of the blue tone
this color most definitely brightens the face - makes your teeth look super white too!
red makes your lips the star of your face
remember to pick one - face or eye NOT both, especially with a red lip.
so many brands out these days it's almost so hard to pick...
but check out these ;)
hearing this is all the rage right now...
my absolute favorite glosses and stains are from here...
and how could you NOT love the sleek cases & cheap prices
