Inner Beauty

Hello Beauties!


If you are reading this, then I want you to know that I think that *you* are beautiful!


While this blog focuses on outer-beauty such as makeup, fashion, and hair; I want my readers to know that my true passion and wish for you all is to *love yourself*! Outer beauty truly is only skin-deep if you don't love yourself and reflect your beauty on the inside. Try to not only see that beauty in yourself, but to also see it in others around you. Yes, others see what is on the outside. Try to let your outer beauty project the beauty that is inside you.


What made me "fall in love" with makeup, is that it is transformative. It can make you feel better about yourself and let you feel more confident. But, don't let that be all that others see!


While I am a self-proclaimed "beauty and product junkie", I want you all to know that I try to not take this all too seriously! After all, it is lipgloss that I am writing about. Hence the phrase (and my "slogan") in my title banner: "Saving the world one lipgloss at a time, lol"! :) I am passionate about many things! But, will generally not post my "deep thoughts" here. I want this blog to be "light" and fun to read. Lets have fun with this girls!!! Lets be supportive of each other in this "beauty community".


Okay, I hope this didn't sound too cliche. But, I did want to address inner beauty as it is of the utmost importance! :) Be healthy and be kind. Please my beauties, love yourself and take care of yourself. On the inside and out!

Avon Sweet Harvest Lip Balm Collection Fall 2011

Is this the first post I've done about Avon on here? It can't be! I've been an Avon fan for so long, I really should review my Avon stuff more often.

Anyway, one of the things I like most about Avon is the seasonal stuff they do every year. I always make sure to order the seasonal lip balms and bubble baths and the little tubes of hand cream they do with cute designs for each holiday. This year's fall lip balm collection is called Sweet Harvest and it consists of four flavored balms with some really pretty fall label designs.

The balms have a slight tint to them but don't really add much color. Notice anything weird about that Pumpkin Pie Balm? The label is on upside down! I can't twist up the balm because it covers the base and it's hard to put the cap back on because of the label over the end. Kinda funny but a little frustrating because I don't want to remove the pretty pumpkin label to use my lip balm!

They each smell like their names and have a bit of a sweet taste. The Pumpkin Pie one is usually my favorite and this year's version smells pretty good.

The balms have a thick, sort of buttery waxy texture and moisturize fairly well. I'll admit, not the greatest balm formula I've ever used, but the scents and packaging are decent and the price is right (got mine on sale for 69¢).

The one thing I really don't like about Avon's recent balm releases are the labels. They used to always have a colored cap and a printed label, but this year the label is one piece along the entire tube and is perforated at cap level. This means you break the label and leave a rough, ugly edge when removing the cap for the first time. Really wish they'd switch back to the old design which allowed the pretty labels to remain undamaged when removing the cap!

I do love the designs they put on the labels this year. They remind me of old antique cookbooks and thanksgiving table decorations.
