Why I Love...Minty Lip Products

Photobucket Photobucket


I love things that do double duty, especially when there are two to choose from!

These lip treatments are similar in that they both have mint to freshen your breath, but one is a balm and the other is a gloss. C.O.

These products are so refreshing that you don't need to pop a breath mint, so if you're going out at night and don't want to carry a lot in your clutch...

Why I Love...Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss

Photobucket


This lip gloss is just as good as any other lip plumper out there, and I

A makeup artist I once had turned me onto it, and let me tell you, it's a real find! Make sure to purchase it in clear or nude only -- dark lip colors will age and darken your face, while lighter, pinky ones will compensate for the loss of glow in your complexion as you age.
