Review: ELF Lip Exfoliater

Winter, the season I was born with and the season that my lips are not my best friend.  The cold air just dries out my skin and is especially harsh on my lips. Chapstick and lip balm are only lip products I use on  a regular basis, as a kid I tried to collect as many Lip Smackers products I could find thus making lip products just not fun anymore. Sometimes Chapstick doesn't seems to do the trick, so dry lips are my constant enemy this season. But today I found a lip product to save my chapped lips.

The ELF Lip Exfoliater, I honestly can't imagine not having this product constantly stocked. This product is packed with Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Avocado, Grape, Jojoba oils and sugar to exfoliate and moisturize your lips. All you have to do to have mouth watering soft lips is rub the product in circles around your lips (really buff it in), and just wipe with a water soaked cotton pad/napkin.

1) Taste: The sugar really helps the product exfoliate your lips and gives it a sweet taste. It might not be a smart idea to swallow or eat this product but if its going around anywhere near your mouth it might as well not taste awful.

2) Packaging: Its not my favorite packaging a little to bulk and could definitely be a little sleeker. Won't be something that could easily fit in your pocket, but not a deal breaker. The product itself comes in a classic lipstick shape, which makes the application process much easier than something in a little jar.

3) Price: This product is part of the ELF studio line and retails for $3. I found mine at my local Target but it is also available at the ELF website www.eyeslipsface.com. For something that has completely changed the way my lips feel, $3 is not a bad price at all.


Overall, this is definitely something worth checking out. Dry lips or not, using this is a great little lip pick-me-up. If you plan on doing any kissing or going on hot dates this is something to definitely keep handy. You can easily use this in a bathroom or even in your car (just keep a water bottle and napkin handy, not tissues though the water and sugar will makes these useless). Have a happy day and happy lips!

Blog Changes

So blogging yesterday felt pretty good! I got to release some emotions and just tell the world what I'm feeling. I am thinking of 1) making more blog posts 2)making specific blog posts. I want to start making maybe reviews, make-up of the day, outfit of the day, band/album of the day and still keep up with my random blogs.

1. Reviews: Mostly make-up but some hair product reviews too. For now I will keep it up to those two and possibly expand to other categories.
2. Make-up of the day/week: The products I used that day since they do change out a lot. And mainly what eye look I was going for. I am not an expert at make-up or how to properly apply it but sometimes my eyes look pretty amazing. Maybe this will lead to tutorials?
3. Outfit of the day/week: I don't always have the best outfits, but sometimes I do. Just kind of want to show case them since Fashion is my life.
4. Band/Album/Song of the day/week: Showing the world what I am currently listening to For example Imagine Dragons would be a very good post for this. Love the band, enjoying their album  Night Visions and I can't stop listening to Demons. But sometimes it might just be a band like The Offspring, an album like Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses by Slipknot, or the song Cowboy Casanova by Carrie Underwood. Again this might vary.

Short term goal right now is get these 4 posts done by the end of the month. Slowly working up to bi-monthly posts and eventually weekly posts. If you know me, or have somehow followed this blog you know I can't really make any promises. I will try to make this work. Once again no promises.

Look for these new changes starting in Feb!
