This Ain’t Your Mama’s Chapstick
Posted by girlpaint | Filed under anti-aging, bargain, lipgloss, lipstick, sun care
Growing up, my grandmother always kept a tube or two of chapstick in her pocketbook. I can still remember the waxy feeling and slightly medicinal smell when she would drag it across my lips.

Posted by girlpaint | Filed under bargain, lipgloss, wedding
these days in particular, I don’t wanna break the bank(s) — they’re broke enough as it is.

At only $1 (yep, I said ONE dollar), these Stila stand-in’s are a perfect guilty pleasure that you don’t have to feel guilty about.

Mouthing off about Light Beam
Posted by girlpaint | Filed under gifts, lipgloss, wedding
I have to mention my experience with a new lip gloss. I’m a lip gloss fanatic (I won’t say ‘junkie’ just because I don’t endlessly apply, I’m just obsessed with the stuff, k?).
I got a tube (or cube is more accurate) of Rimmel’s Light Beam gloss, and I LOVE it! The packaging is [...]

I love how their website humbly claims “Deeply moisturizes and protects the lips from overexposure to the [...]

TESS (aka Teen Everyday Skincare System) Skin’s Perfect Pout is one of those truly surprising products that made me re-think “Teen” skincare. I mean, I’m a thirty-something, but somedays my skin reacts more like I’m a thirteen-year old. So why in the world couldn’t my skin, more specifiically in this case: my lips, [...]
