I got this in my Birchbox a few months ago and was excited to try it!

Great packaging, so colorful.  Then the product must be good, right?  Right??

Pucker up! My favorite products for soft lips

20 Nov

There are a number of reasons one would want to have soft lips and would purchase several products to do so.  For one, they feel nice (duh).  Two, they look nice (double duh).  Three, it makes for a smoother application of glosses/lipsticks.  Four, they make kisses with that special someone that much more enjoyable :)  And the list goes on….

As a beauty addict, I’ve tried a few more than several products to achieve those sought after lips, and I wanted to share my favorites with you guys.

Here they are, in no particular order:

**Please note, I did not swatch the products that looked clear whenever applied.**

First up is Mary Kay’s Satin Lips Set, $18.00 MaryKay.com

Website description: Buff away dry skin with Satin Lips® Lip Mask (.3 oz. net wt.), then moisturize with Satin Lips® Lip Balm (.3 oz. net wt.) to keep lips soft. 

This is a really quick and easy lip treatment, you can even do it in the morning before work.  First, you apply the mask and leave it on for 1 – 2 minutes.  Then remove with a damn wash cloth.  Then apply the lip balm.  Poof!  Soft lips!  The consistency and texture of the lip balm reminds me a lot of the Jack Black lip balms.

You can purchase them individually for $9.50 each, but you save a little when you purchase the set ($18).  You can use the lip balm anytime, it does not have to proceed the mask treatment.
