All About the Lip: Vapour Organic Beauty Elixir Lip Gloss is like no other

PPasha — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 20:11:00 +0000

Remember a while ago when I told you all about Vapour Organic Beauty, a new organic beauty company that was bound to make waves? Well, waves it is!

Here’s Enigma, Hush, Hypnotic, Sultry, and Twinkle from Vapour‘s website

Their Elixir Lip Glosses are just incredible! Packed with a healthy dosage of antioxidants, this non-petroleum gloss is pure and simple: some castor oil, some beewax, and a few gorgeous colors – that’s it!

What really makes this gloss incredible is the fact that it wear much more like a lipstick, while offering you all the sheer benefits of a gloss. 100% non-stick, you won’t even know that you have gloss on. And it smells fantastic!

The colors – as you can see – are pretty incredible, too. Available in 5 different shades, they can be worn alone or on top of your favorite lip color for added shine. These are my favorites:

Elixir Gloss in Sultry

Elixir Gloss in Twinkle

Need more reasons? How about these?

No harmful chemicals to ingest by mouth or through the skin
Nourishes and delivers benefits to the skin with safe food grade ingredients
Proprietary formula moisturizes while allowing skin to breathe

Elixir Lip Glosses are available from www.vapourbeauty.com for $20.

All about the lip: Revolution Organics Freedom Glosses Review + Giveaway

PPasha — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 13:33:00 +0000

You have all heard me rant and rave about Revolution Organics. I am totally in love with their Freedom Glow and with their All-Over Body Balm. And now I have fallen in love with yet another one of their products: their Freedom Glosses.

Fab colors: Innocent, Truth, Integrity, Freedom, Vibe

These are not your generic lip glosses. Operating according to the same standards as other Revolution Organics products (formulated with 100% natural and 85% certified organic ingredients, free of chemicals, mineral oil, petroleum, artificial ingredients and parabens, and not tested on animals), these glosses contain plant proteins and extracts that deliver antioxidants and vitamins, organic jojoba oil to nourish and condition, organic shea butter to hydrate and moisturize, organic aloe vera and olive oil to soothe and soften, and natural pigments for color. The formula is also non-sticky and glides on so easily.

The colors are simply amazing and perfect for the summer months. Vibe, a warm peach shimmer, complements any one’s tan. Freedom, a strawberry red, as well as Truth, a sheer pink, fight for a place in my makeup bag. Innocent, a soft baby pink, and Integrity, a shimmering rose with golden undertones, complement the collection.

But you don’t have to take my word for it! Here’s your chance to all of my favorite Revolution Organics products: A Freedom Gloss of your choice, a Freedom Glow of your choice, and an All-Over Body Balm. Here’s how:

Cover FX Week: Pout with Confidance with Cover FX’s MintGlaze FX Fortifying Lip Treatment Primer

PPasha — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 12:52:00 +0000

I never think of treating my lips. I try to wear lipstick or lipgloss with SPF but that’s about it. So I was super excited to try Cover FX’s MintGlaze FX, their brand spanking new Fortifying Lip Treat-Mint Primer. It does so many things all at once that it’s hard to believe it’s only 1 product.

the Lip Fill Technology (a blend of peptides and hyaluronic acid) helps bring lips back to younger days, restoring collagen and providing time-released hydration.
the F.A.C.E. vitamins concentrate keeps your lips nourished and protected with peppermint oil.
SPF protection helps keep UV exposure at bay.
mint glaze provides instant cooling.

I use MintGlaze FX both as a lip primer and alone. As a primer, it helps smooth lines on my lips and adds mucho shine to whatever color I wear on top of it. Alone, it’s just perfect – clear, glossy, minty, making my lips appear fuller and softer.

Beauty Chant: Stila 24K Gold Indian Summer Collection Review + Giveaway

PPasha — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 16:06:00 +0000

Though we have been told again and again by our parents that all that glistens is not gold, in the case of Stila’s 2009 Summer collection, it is! As part of their fabulous comeback Stila has launched their 24 Karat Gold Indian Summer Collection, a collection of 4 limited edition absolutely must-have summer makeup. Infused with 24 karat gold, each item in this collection was inspired -and in turn, inspires! – in the sultry, golden, and exotic beauty of India. Think luxurious bronzes, deep reds, glimmering corals, intense teals, and smoky darks.
And I bet you thought you could never, like Cleopatra, clad yourself in gold!
Here are some favorites:
24 Karat Lip Gloss - This is much more than a lip gloss. First of all, and perhaps most importantly, it’s a truly non-sticky formula. The formula is rich in moisturizing ingredients to keep your lips naturally supple. Stila infused it with genuine 24 karat gold leaf to make this gloss shine and shine and shine. The tube comes adorned with a real Indian bindi. And it comes in 5 shades (Precious Coral will quickly become your fav!). That will do, Stila. That will do.

Charmed Palette – Imagine all the summer colors you have always wanted but didn’t really know you wanted/needed them? Stila has once again understood what even we don’t understand and presented us with a palette that realizes all of our shadow fantasies. Both delicate and dramatic, the colors here have a subtle metallic undertone that mixes with the natural jewel tones to create the perfect summer look and can be worn wet or dry. The 24 karat gold lends itself to a mid-tone copper, warm gold, intense teal, and deep burgundy, i.e. endless possibilities! Also adorned with a real Indian bindi.

Golden Noir Smudge Pot – Nothing is more sultry than smoky eyes – I think it’s save to say we all agree on that. Well, now imagine what you know about sultry – black liner – and add a little golden shimmer to it. Yeap! Sultry has been raised a notch! The 24 karat gold makes this multi-tasking good-for-everything formula gild through the matte black. Add a little to upper lid for a daytime friendly liner, then add a little to lower lid for a to-dye-for smoky look.
Marigold Convertible Color Duo: We all love the convertibles (and no, I’m not talking about a Porsche here!). They are easy to use, carry, and the color combo is always dead on. This is not an exception. Also infused with genuine 24karat gold, the colors here are the epitome of summer. The creme side will get your cheeks the most natural bronzed look while the shimmer will get your lips and lids highlighted and gorgeous.

Are you ready to try Indian Summer? Here’s your chance:
Visit Stila and leave me a comment with the name of your go-to all-time favorite Stilla product (I know! There are so many!). On July 17th, 2009 I’ll randomly select 1 winner who will receive a 24 karat lip gloss. Contest runs from June 22nd to July 17th. Winner will be announced on or around July 18th and contacted by email.
