perfect pink pout

When I was locked up in my work meetings in DC I somehow managed to dash to CVS and purchase a fabulous new lip balm. Seriously, I literally had 10 minutes of free time but I clearly never miss a beauty product purchase opportunity! I'm extremely low maintenance when it comes to lip color (yes, I'm aware that I'm obviously a bit high maintenance in other areas...) mainly because I can't seem to keep it on and always pick an unflattering color. I tend to stick to lip balms and glosses versus lipsticks and stains. So if that sounds like you dash to your local drugstore and buy this absolutely ah-mazing balm! (Also, all my "green" friends this stuff is 100% natural- rejoice!!!)

Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm, Pink Blossom, 0.15-Ounce (Pack of 2)Burt's Bees- Tinted Lip Balm in Pink Blossom $7.00 You chicas are in luck I even decided to purchase this damn thing since it is probably the ugliest looking packaging I've ever seen in my life. Seriously, it's brown. WHY would anyone ever think that's a good idea?!!!  Regardless, I caved since I tend to love Burt's Bees balms. This lip balm is extremely moisturizing and the color it leaves behind is the prettiest shade of pink and it lasts!!!! I am beyond obsessed with it. The only drawbacks are the horrendous packaging and that it doesn't have SPF. I'm not too concerned with the SPF since I've been using this lip color as my go to for when I go out to dinner and out for my vodka/soda's. It's $7.00 I promise you won't regret spending! It comes in a few other colors but personally the Pink Blossom color is extremely neutral and I have no need to try any of the other colors but I'm sure they are just as flattering!


Hope the week is off to a good start!

  1. I LOVE this stuff -- especially since I'm totally Burt's loyal. I have the hibiscus shade, which is a bit of a deeper mauvey-pink but it works great with my olive skin. I will definitely try the pink blossom, I was afraid it be too bubble gum-ish when I saw it in the store. Thanks!

  2. This stuff is WAY better than expected isn't it?! I will buy the hibiscus shade too- I was up in the air with both! Can't wait to try it!
