6 Lip Products I can't live without

If there's one thing I hate about winter, its chapped lips. Not only do they look gross, but they also hurt if you let them get really bad. I make sure to always keep my lips well-hydrated and protected, especially because I love wearing lipsticks and lip glosses but mostly because no one deserves chapped lips, especially in the middle of winter. 

I thought I'd share with you my top 6 lip products (I couldn't pick just 5) that I swear by and can't live without- Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall, doesn't matter.

 

First up: Bliss fabulips sugar lip scrub

I keep this lip scrub in my shower and use it pretty much every time I shower. It exfoliates my lips and any removes dead. This is my first line of defense when I start to feel my lips getting chapped. Its made up of finely granulated sweet sugar, almond and walnut shell, and vanilla+orange-flavored formula.  Usually I'm not a big vanilla flavor person, like not at all, but this is so lightly scented and flavored that I actually love it. The sugar gently exfoliates while the jojoba seed and olive oils, shea and cocoa butters and vitamins A, C and E nourish and condition my lips to the amazing-ness feeling that I get every time I use it.

 

Next up: Treat Coconut Cream Old Fashioned Jumbo Flavored Lip Balm

This lip balm is unlike any other. First off its huge, .50 ridiculously deliciously smoothing ounces, so the likelihood of you running out soon is low (unless you're an addict like me and use it all day, every day). Secondly, its organic and the best flavored coconut product you've ever tasted. It's made out of the goodness of Coconut Oil, Beeswax and Shea Butter. And Lastly, its the best thing I've found that truly keeps my lips feeling moisturized all day long.

After my lips are nice and moisturized, I begin priming them with my Too Faced Lip Insurance Lip Primer. I bought this little guy in a special beauty set Too Faced offers that also comes with deluxe sizes of their Shadow Eye Primer, Mascara, and a face primer. Honestly, best $19 I've ever spent on such true deluxe size items that are super high quality. This lip primer is a creamy formulation that applies all over your lips to lock in your lip color so it won't feather, fade or transfer. Best thing about Too Faced products is that they're all paraben-free and most are vegan-friendly, like this little guy. And I like that.

Now this next item is what I consider the holy grail of lipsticks- its MAC's Girl About Town  
it's a brightened medium-dark fuchsia pink with blue undertones. It has an amplified creme finish and it only take a little bit of product to get a great color on your lips. Honestly, if you ask me, this color looks good on any skin complexion.  This picture doesn't even do it justice. It's kinda expensive but worth every penny. When I wear this, I feel like the prettiest girl in the room.

This is an oldie but a goodie. It's my C.O. Bigelow Lip Gloss in Ultra Menta. It's SUPER minty, SUPER glossy and doubles great as a breath freshener- I used to be an AAAADDICT when I used to smoke (yes, I know, GROSS, no judging though. I kicked the habit once I got pregnant and I never looked back!). Now I'm still an AAAAADDICTT, hehe that's how good this stuff is-so every time I'm near a Bath and Body Works I pick one up. See below, it's used so much poor thing is losing all of it's cover.

Lastly, every girl needs a great red lip! I used to think red only looked good on certain skin types and people, well, mainly skin types and 'people' that wasn't me. But so not the case. Something about a red lip just screams confidence- don't cha think? 

I haven't found a great red lipstick that I think looks good on me without feeling like I look like Mimi on the Drew Carey Show from back in the day. Buttttttt what I have found is another great alternative. It's MAC's lip liner in Cherry.  It's a vivid bright bluish-red and it goes on and stays amazing!

  
What are your favorite lip products you swear by? I'd love to know! You can never have too many! Anything you'd recommend with SPF since spring and summer are right around the corner?


 

Disclosure: These items are bought from me, to me :) And its my 100% honest opinion.
