Lip Service.....Splurge or Steal

SPLURGE
Okay, I have a new found addiction...Dior Addict Lip Gloss. This is the perfect lipgloss, and trust me when I say that I am picky about lipstick, gloss, yeah. Why do I love this so much? The bottle is the perfect size, the applicator a short sized brush...so you can more conveniently apply it on the go! And because it is so small, you can apply and pretty much go unnoticed if you aren't in the ladies room. (For some reason, it feels improper to me to apply lipstick in public, when others watch.) THATS NOT ALL, the brush is a perfect applicator, the gloss is not sticky, it is just PERFECT! Honestly my lips have never felt so good. SO, if you happen to run through Nordstroms, pick one up. YOu'll become an {Addict}. My fave color is 157 Jersey Rose. It is basically a nude look dressed up a notch! OH yeah, and there is a plumper version too....AMAZING! Most lip plumpers leave your mouth tasting terrible, this one is actually refreshing! I highly recommend it. :)

STEAL
Now, if you can't splurge right now and want a FANTASTIC and practical lipgloss, try Almay's
IDEAL Lipgloss.
My Favorite shade is pink shimmer. It has a small amount of peppermint in it so every application is refreshing. It is never sticky, it has a brush applicator as well, and it always works. AND, you can pick it up practically anywhere. It is the Steal of the Day. For perfect lips line with a lip liner of your favorite color and top with this gloss. It lasts quite a while and feels great. I prefer a liner that matches my lips or a shade darker smudged a bit into the lips.

Any Fabulous Lip wear I should know about? Please, do share!

I am slightly addicted to lip gloss - thanks for giving me two new ones to try! My faves are Cargo (LOVE the peppermint) (but you do need to use your own lipbrush, which doesn't make it great to throw in your purse)And Smashbox, which is a bit sticky for me, but I love some of the natural shades - most recently,I've been wearing "Illume"

What did you think of the Runway last night? I was blown away, just floored with what they came up with! LeeAnn rocks!
