Friday Favorites - Lips

Happy Happy Friday!

 

Are you as ready for this weekend as I am?! It's been a crazy, but good week and

I'm ready for some R&R this weekend.

 

Today I wanted to share my current lip favorite. This has been my go to

shade for the past two months and I feel like it's the perfect pink for summer.

 

Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Pink Peony.

 

This is the only Bobbi Brown product I own. I haven't ever really tapped

into her brand, but love her philosophy behind makeup and beauty and the

whole natural look.

 

This color is beautiful for summer. It's a wearable every day shade with a pop

of brightness that wears really well for this time of the year.

 

The other thing I really love about this particular color line is that it's very

long wearing and has a bit of a staining effect. I'm a lippie girl and I love products

that stay on well and don't wear off after a sip or two of water. I like to have it last

as long as possible without feeling like it's always in need of reapplying. 

I love the packaging. Classy. Chic. Can't go wrong with black and white.

It looks so sophisticated and grown up. : )

 

Not that it should really matter, but it does draw us in more, right?! 

 

Here is a swatch on my wrist. I would describe this color personally as

a bright rose pink.

 

Bobbi describes it as a "medium toned pink."

 

So pretty and a summer favorite of mine!

 

What's your summer lip favorite?

 

 

 



What's in my Purse? Summer Lippies

Happy Friday!!!

 

I thought it would be fun to show you all my favorite summer lippies

that I've been keeping in my purse. These are all my current faves and my go

to shades for the season.

 

I rotate out my purse lippies from time to time so I am giving love to them all...

b/c as I've said before I currently have a lip product obsession that I can't seem

to beat. I keep a variety of shades mostly in the pink/coral family.

Makeup Mayfest Day Day 13

I literally just discovered my Wednesday Wish for this week and am

obsessed. How does this happen?!

 

I ran out to SAKS on my lunch break to buy a Bobbi Brown lipstick I have been

coveting and used from my friend Alison while beaching this past weekend.

 

Review to come soon on Pink Peony. It's such a pretty pink.

 

BUT, this post is about a wish ... not what has already been purchased.

 

While checking out they had their summer collection items out and I grabbed

the perfume "Beach" to take a quick sniff.

 

 

 

 

Oh, my heavens.... if anything could smell like summer and beach in a

bottle in the most classy, feminine way this is it.

 

I will refrain from my terrible attempts at trying to describe scents and leave you with

what the experts say.

 

"A light, happy, and nostalgic scent that evokes warm sunshine and the sea breeze."



This bestselling scent captures the atmosphere and attitude of summer. Designed with an intoxicating blend of jasmine, sea spray, and mandarin, this eau de parfum is wearable anytime, anywhere."

 

I sprayed a few mists on my arm when leaving SAKS and I haven't been

able to stop smelling my arm since being back in the office.

 

Seriously, go smell this stuff and tell me you don't love it!!!!
