Let's talk about lips...Pucker up!

October 29, 2013

While organizing a few things over the weekend, I came to realize my obsession with lip moisturizers.  I mean I always knew I have a thing for lips but when I started to count how many lip products I have and how many places I have them in, I couldn't help but laugh.  The truth be said, there's nothing like feeling your lips to be soft, smooth and moisturized.  Especially living in New England, you need to lather up on extra lip moisturizers because you will end up with chapped red lips, BIG NO NO!  There is no excuse, if you are a man or a woman, keep your lips looking healthy please. (AND NO, licking your lips constantly does not count as a lip moisturizer)

Let me share with you what lip moisturizers I currently use.  



  1. EOS
  2. Chapstick Hydration Lock
  3. Burt's Bee Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil
  4. Sprouts Cocoa Lip Balm
  5. Maybelline Baby Lips


I keep these favorites in many places so they are handy when I need them.


  1. Makeup Vanity - first thing I do when I sit down to start my makeup
  2. Purse - to apply anywhere I am
  3. Work - apply throughout the day
  4. Night Stand - apply right before going night night 


And if that is not enough for you, I also use the Satin Lips Set from Mary Kay to exfoliate about every couple of weeks.  Love this stuff! I have been using this as long as I can remember.  Also, Lush carries very yummy lip scrubs that I have used in the past.

 

Or you can make your own lip treatment by combining ingredients you have in your pantry.  Mix a little of brown sugar, honey and olive oil.  Apply to your lips to exfoliate, rinse off and apply your favorite lip moisturizer.  Instant soft lips!

Happy LIPS everyone!!

A beautiful wedding on the water

September 17, 2013

Got to attend a wedding on the water this past weekend.

The ceremony and reception was held at the Griffith House of Saunderstown,  Rhode Island.
It was a beautiful home right on the water.  What a view!

Gorgeous location.
Gorgeous bride.
Great food.
Great drinks.


So happy for them!

Here is my OOTD for the wedding:


The dress is from Express, hair piece is from Icing, nude pumps from Tarjay!
and 
my eye make-up was done by the lovely Organized Chica!

a close up of my make-up  - I love how she made my eyes pop!



If you are looking for a good recommendation for getting glammed up with your make-up, my girl Marilyn knows where its at!  

This was a summer wedding - and in my look I think you can tell I was holding onto the summer!!  
I think other seasons are fun to attend weddings so you can change your look.

What is your favorite time of year to get glammed up?
Can't wait to hear from you!

Love, Stylish Mama
