Lipbalm

Loving the vibrancy of the Hygr Tinted Lip Balm in Hibiscus but hoping they’ll improve on one little thing

I’m not one to wear lip balm or tinted lip balm very often. I’m a lipstick girl through and through, and am unashamed about it.

But livestyles and opinions can change, and social media ads are incredibly persuasive LOL! 😀

I came across the Hygr Natural Tinted Lip Balm on Instagram, and when I clicked through to have a look, I continued being served their products more and more, until one day, I caved and bought the Hygr Tinted Lip Balm to see what was so great about it, and why people were hyping about it.

Yes, you can still wear lipstick under a facial mask!

Now that wearing a face mask has become the ‘new normal’, I’ve come across many people bemoaning the fact that there is no more point to wearing lipstick, or any lip colour.

For one, it’s covered by your mask, so what’s the point?

Second, lip colours will transfer onto your mask, and it smears and makes a mess.

But you know what? I still wear lip colours, especially lipstick. I feel naked and unfinished without a slick of lip colour, so let me tell you how I manage, and the types of finishes I pick to avoid smearing 🙂

The tint of colour in the new Cle de Peau Beaute Lip Glorifier ensures your kissing game won’t get messy!

Some days, I’m all about bold lip colours. The bolder and brighter, the better!

Some days, I mellow and reach for tinted lip balms for just a hint of colour on lips. In fact, this is what I reach for most often these days, as I’m often pressed for time, and I’m busy trying to get a new, special project off the ground.

A new tinted lip balm that has come within my radar is the Cle de Peau Beaute Lip Glorifier Glow Revival Conditioning Balm that comes in 3 barely there shades.

Because today’s also Valentine’s Day, I might suggest that instead of going the whole way and vamping up with the red (for which I have a beautiful and legendary one to suggest) why not dial it down and go for something sweet instead, that won’t mess up when things get erm… steamy 😉

My favourite makeup collection is here! So is the Chanel Les Beiges 2019 collection Les Indispensables?

I have to admit to feeling a little beauty fatigue. There are only so many new makeup or skincare releases I can handle, before it begins to overwhelm. And before they start looking the same.

Yet, there is always one collection I look forward to every year – Chanel Les Beiges makeup collection.

The Chanel Les Beiges collection is always like a breath of fresh air, with its predictability and basic, neutral hues. It is, in many ways, almost dull in its predictability.

But it is that predictability that I look forward to. When we are bombarded with bright colours and imagery in each different makeup collection, with polished, airbrushed and defined, almost cookie-cutter precision looks that accompany it; I feel the need to ground myself.

The Chanel Les Beiges collection, with its splash of neutral beige, and celebration of all that is natural and basic and neutral, is just that!
