Do you adore the taste of Girl Scout cookies but fear the idea of gaining weight? Well no worries because The Girl Scouts of the USA and the Lip Smackers brand have teamed up to create a Girl Scout Cookie Lip Smackers Collection. Girl Scout cookie lovers can still enjoy these tasty treats without worrying about the calorie intake.
The collection comes in five sweet flavors: Chocolate Peanut Butter, Peanut Butter, Trefoils (my favorite cookie!), Thin Mints, and Coconut Caramel Stripes.
I think this is such an awesome idea because I was a Girl Scout Junior growing up and even as an adult, I still crave them. In addition to its yummy scents, each lip balm carries an ultra-moisturizing formula to treat dry, chapped lips.
That’s not all from the duo. They’ll also be releasing liquid glosses in early 2012 so be on the look out for that.
For now, pick up a Girl Scout Cookie Lip Smackers holiday gift set at stores like Walmart for $5. <— STOCKING STUFFER ALERT!!!

Hey everyone. Today I’m sharing with you two new products from the Carmex line and a giveaway. Yay!
Introducing Carmex newest flavors- Lime Twist and Vanilla.
Carmex’s newest lip balms are ultra moisturizing, ultra smooth, and ultra flavor. Besides the delicious flavor, both balms have an added sun protection with SPF15 and all of the moisturizing ingredients of the Carmex lip balm line. What makes these premium lip balms different from the brand’s original line are the three additional moisturizers.
I’ve been a Carmex fan ever since I was a little kid. I rarely suffered from extreme dry or cracked lips and I truly believe Carmex played a role in that. When I was given the opportunity to try Carmex’s two newest lip balm flavors, I was beyond excited and couldn’t wait to test it out.
My review:
After testing out both balms one thing is certain, Carmex delivers on its promise. My lips looks and feels incredible. I will admit that I lean more towards the Vanilla than the Lime Twist. I love everything Vanilla so it wasn’t hard falling for the Vanilla flavor first plus it stays in my purse 24/7. I still enjoy the Lime Twist flavor. In fact, I apply it at night right before I head to bed. Again, I think both scents are awesome.

During the hot summer months, I occasionally whip out a bold red lip color or a sexy hot pink gloss; but there’s nothing better than slicking on a soft peachy gloss that has intense shine and shimmer. It’s the perfect color gloss because it comes off more natural and it looks great against tan skin. Jennifer Lopez rocks the peachy look the best!
Give your pout some glossy love with any of these 10 peachy lip gloss.

- Kiehl’s Lip Gloss in French Rose- Kiehls.com, $15

Are you tired of being jealous of women with fuller lips? Do you want to have Angelina Jolie’s beautiful pout? Well, now you can. There are different ways to achieve that look but I’ll show you two natural tricks that will really give your lips some plumpness. Not everyone turns to lip injections, lip plumpers, or even makeup to achieve a nice pout. There are simpler, safer, and more natural approaches of having a fuller lip.
Are you ready?
The secret to fuller lips…….an ELECTRIC TOOTH BRUSH!
When your toothbrush is foamy, use it to carefully brush your lips. Be gentle and avoid scratching or injuring your lips. Rinse thoroughly after brushing both your teeth and lips. The
next step is to apply a moisturizer or a lip balm on your brushed lips. Doing these continuously will improve circulation of the blood in the lips and make them fuller and more plump. Aside from that, you will notice that your lips will have better color.
To really give your lips some plumpness, mix some cayenne pepper into your gloss. This is another secret in attaining a fuller lip. Pepper slightly irritates the lips and makes them swell a little. Some may find this uncomfortable and unnecessary. However, if you are bent on having a pouty plump lip then you could sacrifice a little comfort in order to get it.
I hope you enjoyed this beauty tip of the week!
