My Lip Treats

        My addiction to lip glosses/balms started in my mid teens, because I just grew tired of having cracked and dried lips, which can very difficult and embarrassing. From then, I was one of those girls who couldn't care less; where and when I put on my gloss/balm : when I'm riding in a jeep, taxi or train, when I'm walking in the street or office halls, after office breaks - morning, noon and night. Listed are my favorite lip glosses or lip balms that have been tried and tested :

1. Avon Lip Balm - Cherry and Bubblegum flavor - It was such a hit when I was in college... right now the Bubblegum flavor is already phased-out, though they still have the Cherry flavor.


2. Vaseline Lip Therapy (Cherry) - It's flavored petroleum jelly, that doesn't give "white ring" to the lips. Makes lips really soft and smooth. A great primer before putting on a lipstick, though it doesn't have any hint of color. I prefer this apply it in my lips before sleeping :)











3. Victoria Secret's Beauty Rush Lip Gloss (Lotta Colada & Cherry Bomb) - It's quite sticky but has Mineral oil that moisturizes the lips. With slight color and shimmer that add volume, perfect for the night-outs.








4. Nivea Caregloss and Shine (Lovely Red) - No greasy feeling, long lasting-moisture, non-sticky. Enriched with Vit. E and shea butter. Nice pigment that add color to the lips...and of course, I love its tasty fragrance of raspberry.





5. Maybelline Lipgloss (Raspberry Pudding) - Yeah, it's sticky. But for me it's my substitute for lipstick because of it's great color that suited to my morena skin. Makes my lips naturally soft. Certified fan of this flavor.



6. Body Shop's Born Lippy (Strawberry) - Love the color and fruity flavor. Packed with moisturizers. Leaves lips soft, smooth and kissable.







7. Blistex Liptone Lipbalm - Compliments the natural color of your lips. With SPF 15. Love it's vanilla flavor. With vitamins and moisturizers that keeps the lips moist and soft.








8. Revlon's Super Lustrous Lipgloss (Pearl Plum) - Glossy formula that has a sheer coloring and moisturizers. A sure treat for the lips. A great substitute for lipstick. Believe it or not, the color and moisture stays, after hours in the sun and water. I used this when my family and I went swimming in the beach.
