Sally Hansen Full & Radiant Lip Definer

Plump Pucker :o) A Makeup Bag Must...

Sally Hansen Full & Radiant Lip Definer, 0.10oz
 

Sally Hansen's Full & Radiant Lip Definer (0.10oz) is a must in my makeup bag.  Its one of my favorite lip primers I use before applying lipstick.  This stuff makes your lips plump up and look oh so smooth.  It's got a soft pearlescent sheen to it that brightens and helps to create a youthful radiant glow to lips. 

The scent is not super overwhelming which I love.  Some days I wake up and my lips look thin because they are dehydrated so I pop this baby on and wait about 10mins or do my foundation and by the time I'm done my lips are looking nice and fuller.  Oh and also...there's no stinging sensation which some lip plumpers tend to have:)

I highly recommend this product for women with mature lips because it also helps smooth lines and help with lip definition.  According to Sally Hansen it contains a collagen enhancing complex, soy proteins & vitamins A,C, E. 



I love how it comes in a regular lipstick tube because you can put it on with such ease you don't even need a mirror and there's no mess on your fingers which can sometimes happen with other balms. Overall its a great item to have around in your makeup bag.

Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Lipstick #29 Opera Rose

Lovin This YSL Pink Lipstick!


I just picked up this lipstick from the mall a few days ago.  I had no plans to spend money on cosmetics but  I have this debilitating weakness for the gold YSL lipstick packaging.  Its shiny and catches my eye...ADD for you:(

Nevertheless, I gotta say I'm super glad I emptied my wallet and picked this lil pink baby up.  Its such a beautiful medium pink, perfect for summer! Bonus: It has SPF 15 and it adds volume to your lips, woo-hoo. 


This shade comes from the YSL Rouge Volupte series and is densely pigmented with a satin like finish and a soft shine.  Its very creamy and practically glides onto the lips.  I gotta admit its a very luxurious lipstick and I love pulling out the elegant gold case (maybe a little too much lol).  You definitely want to exfoliate your lips before wearing any of the YSL Rouge Volupte lipsticks because they are so creamy that they literally slide right into your lip lines.  Very little goes a long way so don't windshield wipe on your lips ladies!!!

What I love about this color is its versatility. Its a vibrant rose pink which is bright enough to wear on a night out but also soft enough to wear during the day.  Meaning if you wear this to work, people won't be staring at your lips all day.  I think it will flatter a wide variety of skin tones as well.  When I applied it, it gave my complexion a healthy glow.

Because of the creaminess of this lipstick I would not describe this particular item as a long wearing product.  It does look lovely on the lips but if you have anything to drink or eat you will find yourself reaching for that classy little gold case to reapply.  I would try wearing a lip pencil underneath to try to extend the wear time.  I woud not recommend this for a special event (ex: wedding) because it definetly won't last the whole day.
