Dry lips are never chic. Soften up your pout with Maybelline Baby Lips. It’s a luxurious moisturizing lip balm with a hint of color, SPF 20, and hydrating formula that lasts for eight hours. I think the best thing about this lip balm is that long-term use of this visibly renew your lips.

The lip balm comes in six different shades varying from clear to pale peach- you can check out the entire color chart below.

 

You can purchase Maybelline Baby Lips balm for just $2.97 at Walmart.

There is a reason we love M-A-C Cosmetics. We love the bold hues, the rich formulas, and avante garde advertising campaigns. But now it appears that (one of) our favorite cosmetic brands has gone au naturel. The M-A-C, Naturally line includes mineral based products that enhance your skin and complexion. This collection is all about enhancing the beauty that nature gave you. Here is a brief look at their products. You can purchase the cosmetics featured here on their official website or at a M-A-C- counter near you!

Eye Pencil Get in line. The M-A-C Eye Pencil was designed to create a smooth line that defines the eyes. It comes in two natural colors:Coffee and Ebony.

Mineralize Eye Shadow These tiny compacts of marbellized mineral eye shadows. The colors blend in beautifully to create a look that’s natural. If you haven’t tried M-A-C products yet but you’re itching to try something from them, I’d recommend their Mineralized Eye Shadows. They come in five colors including Twilight Falls, In The Sun, Daylight, Cloudy Afternoon, and Summer Haze.

Mineralize Blush A lightweight mineral powder that brings a little bit of color to your cheeks. This blush is lightweight and super sheer, it also comes in three shades:Subtle Breeze, Early Morning, and Fresh Honey.

Mineralize Skinfinish Here is a powder that goes on smooth to define and highlight the skin. It also leaves a metallic finish to add a little color. You can use this as an allover face cover, blusher, or eyeshadow.

Lipstick You will love the way these four natural looking lip colors provide coverage and a hint of color. It comes in four amazing but subtle shades including Sweet Sunrise, Beach Sand, A Perfect Day, and Pillow Talk.

Tinted Lipglass The same soft textured lipgloss and glossiness you love now comes in fresh new shades like a deep red(Hot Spell), cool pink(Fresh Air), baby pastel pink(The Wee Coquette), or a lovely nude(Naked Space). These luxe glosses were also enriched with jojoba oil for a softer pout.

A makeup bag is an essential for any fashionista on the go. Ideally, it should be a cute little zip-top bag that’s made from an easy-to-clean material like plastic, and you should fill it up with the essentials. I personally like to keep my lips super-hydrated and my wrists smelling like flowers(or citrus…or lush greenery) so I like to keep my makeup bag stocked with my favorite products like lip balm and miniature vials of fragrance. What else do I consider essential? Read on for my Makeup Bag Must-Haves! What’s on your list?

Did I miss any deals worth a mention? Let me know!

Calling all glamour girls…we have something to get excited about! The Lancome 2011 Holiday Color Collection by Kate Winslet is nothing short of glamorous. The packaging(that features her signature and a gold hat design), the rich warm shades, it’s all so fresh and feminine. All three products in this collection are limited edition and they won’t last long, so I’d highly recommend snatching up these terrific products now before that the holiday rush begins.

Golden Hat Illuminating Smooth Powder in Goldnescent Glow

Get a natural looking glow with this fabulously elegant powder. I love how this pressed power creates a healthy and natural looking glow because frankly I’m not really into matte. Its got a hint of color but its not like your everyday summer bronzer that gives you a full-colored faux tan. Did you know that you can also use this powder to substitute eyeshadow?

Golden Hat Illuminating Smooth Powder in Goldnescent Glow, $42.00 at

Lancome

L’Absolu Rouge

Not all lipsticks were made the same and L’Absolu Rouge is one of those outstanding products. This rich lip color was enriched with Pro-Xylane, Vitamin E, and SPF 12. It comes in four shades(see color chart above) and a base product. This lip color is creamy and it actually lasts!

L’Absolu Rouge $29.00 at Lancome

Le Vernis

Long lasting color and high shine, Le Vernis Limited Edition Devine Lasting Color and Shine was enriched with shield plasticizers to protect and Methyl-Sulfoynl-Methane to promote natural nail growth. This comes in four fantastic shades(see color chart above) including a glittery metallic shade.

Le Vernis $29 at Lancome
