Rave Review: EOS Lip Balm

Rave Review:  I have finally found a lip product that has stopped me from picking at lips.  I know it is a terrible terrible habit.  I have been picking at my lips since I was a child. When I don't have any lip balm on I feel it dry and peeling a little and then I tend to just rip my lips apart.  Most of the time I don't even realize I am doing it.   My two daughters had requested EOS Lip Balms not to long ago because of the cute packaging.  After reading the natural ingredients I thought it was perfect for my two girls.  My daughters said that they really liked it but I had not tried it since I had Burt's Bee's lip balm and also Fresh Sugar lip balms and I thought I was quite content with them.  Of course I still picked at my lips throughout the day when my lip balm wore off.   Any who, (LOL) my older daughter kept telling me that I should try her lip balm and that it was amazing.  So I decided to give it a try.  After wearing it for awhile that day I realized that it was much more moisturizing than any product I had ever used on my lips.  I promptly went out the next day and purchased my own EOS lip Balm in Sweet Mint.  After two days of using this product I began to realize that my lips would remain moisturized even after the product wore off.  My lips were not dry and peeling anymore and there for my need to pick at them has stopped.  This is seriously my Holy Grail lip balm.  After a week of using it, my lips feel amazing.  Even my husband is impressed that I have stopped my nasty habit.   (I'm jumping up in excitement right now)  :)

So a big thank you to my daughters for recommending this product and thanks to EOS for making it.

Burts Bees Sensitive Moisturizing Cream Review

I was away this weekend and realized that I had forgotten my daily face moisturizer. So I quickly ran to the store and purchased this moisturizer to use in place of my usual daily moisturizer.  It's the Burts Bees Sensitive Skin Moisturizer.  I have to say that I was very impressed.  Its very moisturizing but not thick and greasy.  It felt wonderful on my skin.  I will still continue to use my Sibu repair and protect moisturizer because it really calms the redness around my nose.  But I did want to mention how wonderful this product was as well.  I think that if you are looking for a good moisturizer, this is a really good one that you can find at your local drugstore or Ulta.  I will definitely incorporate it into my skincare routine and use it up.

Here is a list of ingredients:

aqua (water, eau), helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, glycerin, cetyl alcohol, CI 77947 (zinc oxide), zea mays (corn) starch, gossypium herbaceum (cotton) flower extract, oryza sativa (rice) extract, beta vulgaris (beet, extrait de racine de betterave) root extract, artemisia umbelliformis extract, euphrasia officinalis extract, butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter, saccharum officinarum (sugar cane, extrait de canne a sucre) extract, aloe barbadensis leaf juice, jojoba esters, hydrolyzed jojoba esters, kaolin, lecithin, sucrose, fructose, glucose, inositol, citric acid, benzoic acid, trehalose, xanthan gum, glyceryl laurate, potassium sorbate, sucrose stearate, sucrose polystearate, sodium benzoate, sodium stearoyl lactylate, sodium PCA, alcohol denat., phenoxyethanol



   

My Favorite Stylish Riding Boots

I recently purchased a pair of riding boots and they have become my favorite boots.

Marc Fisher Shoes Arty Tall Wide Calf Riding Boots Women's Shoes (if they are sold out here is a similar style.)

They are so comfy and stylish.  So many people have stopped me wanting to know the exact name of my boots and where I purchased them.  I love love love them.  I can walk in them all day.  Here is a look I have paired them with.

 I love this look simple, classic, comfortable and stylish.  


Just a little side note, I know they say wide calf boot but i don't have wide calves and they fit me just fine.
But if you do have wider calves, these would also be perfect for you.  I'd say this boot is the best of both worlds.
