Beauty Wish List!

Hey Beautiful!

I've had my eye on a lot of products and brands that I want to try! So why not share what I'm coveting to my lovely followers? Perhaps I'll be a bad influence to you and peak your interest in some pretty things. (I'm really good at this!)

I've been re-watching some Michelle Phan videos and agh! I want everything! There are three products that I'm loving from her line.

1. Waterliner in "Black Night" Take a look!

2. Lip Gallery creamy color matte lipstick in Just Fab

3. Color Facets sparkling shadow top coats in Gold Divine

Michelle's products look fantastic! It's really unfortunate that I have not tried any of them out.  Luckily, I have these three products in mind for the near future! (My sister's senior ball. I could totally use these on her!)

The next two products are either limited edition or not available in the United States.

1. Milani Rose Blush in Tea Rose

2. L'Oreal's Mega Volume Miss Manga Mascara

Currently these are my most coveted makeup items.  What are yours?

Until Next Time!

My Favorite Lip Balm Picks!

Hello Beautiful!

I hope that you are having a happy spring!  Mine has been quite busy! Only a month and a half left of this semester (ugh).  

I have been slacking on posts (what's new?) and have been wanting to actually create a schedule of when I am going to put out a post.  I am still trying to figure out what day would be best.  Since I am taking a study break today, I wanted to share a short and sweet post for you all! 

Here is something a lot of people may or may not know about me...I'm always on a hunt for the best chapstick/lip balm.  My lips are extremely sensitive and nothing peeves me more than when they are dry and chapped.  It is gross and I love applying lipstick which does not always help them.

So I exfoliate frequently but a great, hefty lip balm is always helpful.

I cannot tell you how many I own.  But they are placed everywhere, on my desk, near the bed, in my backpack, and in my beauty bag!  I always have chapstick. Always.

So out of the (probably hundreds) of chapstick that I do own, here are my top three!

Here they are! I keep one near my facial products so that I remember to apply it in the morning.  I keep one on the bedside table.  I keep the third in my backpack!

Surprisingly, I think the two cheaper balms (vaseline and alba) do a better job with keeping my lips hydrated.  I still love lip service, but I always apply it before I apply my makeup and I think the lipstick dries out my lips regardless.  However, I've been testing out my Vaseline lip therapy for a few days and  I think it keeps my lips soft and hydrated for the longest amount of time.  This only sells for a little over $2 dollars at my nearest Target (but I live in San Francisco and I found that SF city targets are more expensive than suburban based Targets! You might find this product for a cheaper price if you're in the suburbs!)

I also think that my alba chapstick keeps my lips hydrated throughout the day for a longer amount of time than lush's Lip Service.  So sometimes you're better off with the cheaper product!

In conclusion, I love all three of them! The best time for me to use lip service is post lip exfoliation! I pair it up with my lush sugar scrub that I use! They work as a duo!  However, for the cheaper balms, I am more than confident when telling you that the Vaseline lip therapy and Alba balms are spectacular for your lips!  Just take it from a person who owns too many lip balms and always wants more.

So keep your lips hydrated, beautifuls!  Nobody is a fan of dry, cracked lips!
