Bisous Bisous

So lips kinda a big deal for me. Chapped lips kinda of an issue for me, especially now during the winter lol. Consequently, I go through chapsticks the way people go through toilet paper, its that serious. Most recently, I've tried Mac Lip Conditioner, plain ole vaseline, Aquaphor, Chapstick and at first they appeared to have done their job, but as soon as I tried to apply my lipstick/lipgloss combo, it was a hot mess. (I was going to insert a pic of chapped lips for the visual, but ewww, the pics I saw were just nasty!)

During the winter, I have to exfoliate my lips, there's no way I can get around it, in order to achieve a kissable pout. But the lip balm you put on afterwards is just as important. Sooooo, successfully, I've found the following combination of Mac Wipes and Caudalie lip balm. Mac wipes do a kick ass job of removing flakes and general grime (ewww) from the lips. I found this out by accident one day when I was at a Mac counter trying to find my holy grail nude lip, a la Kim Kardashian. (which I found!! I think, but will share later.)



But buying MAC Wipes just for my lips is not a luxury I can afford right now, so I am happy to say that any type of makeup remover worked for me.

But the magic tool is definitely the Caudalie lip balm. Its exactly what I've been looking for. It's a waxy lip balm with some stamina lol. Yes, I like waxy lip balms. Its so much better than the creamy coatings offered by Mac's Lip Conditioner or Vaseline. I don't like creamies, they're like psyche me outs and don't do doing anything. In conclusion:

(lol if only it was that easy!!)

But seriously, this is has been a great combo for me ;)!
