when you need a giant vat of mint chip

did you have a terrible week?
i did.

did you have an embarrassing break down on wednesday night, crying and snivelling, getting out words between tight gasps of air -- i *gasp* dont *gasp* want *gasp* to *gasp* go * gasp* to work anymooooore *sniff sniff gasp gasp* ?
i did.

did you eat a giant bowl of mint chip and crack a tiny smile when you found the ENORMOUS chunk in your mint chip? did you eat it out of your brand new ikea bowls that you are pretty sure are intended for rice but you saw them and thought ICE CREAM!?
i did.

tuesday did you have a pre-dinner icecream cone from chickfila and then mint chip for dessert?
i did and stand firm that it isn't overkill.

it has been that kind of week/month/last two years. no one wants to read about ice cream inducing unpleasantness.

So lets talk lip gloss!!!

Remember when I mentioned my lip needs? Yeah, I have Soflips addiction, uh-dict-shun.

(I think dp dreams of being a prepper but I don't give into his insanity. But I will admit, my mind has wondered to a post-apocalyptic scenario and *i swear* my greatest concern is how long will my Softlips stash last, will I have to ration? Just once in the morning and once at night or if it was terrible once at night, and without ac would they melt and then I would use a stick to dig out the lip protectant goodness? This isn't just blog wit, I've seriously gone down that road.)

At all times I need:
2 softlips at work
1 in the purse
1 by the bed
1 by the desk
+ stash in the drawer

Oh and I have a softlips lip gloss which uh huh, yup, yes it is that amazing. Same light softlips slip from the balm but in a non-sticky no glitter just shiny gloss.

But yes I am a grown woman and since the whole tinted lip balm blog of last year I have vastly expanded my 3 lip color options. Slight update - Sugar by Fresh which was the winner totally melted into a crazy mess, now I have to use a lip brush to even apply- bummer.

Ready? Ok.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable™ Balm StainGirls/Ladies/Flamboyant Gents
That's all you need to know, buy them all. They are kinda everything I ever wanted ever. Wear with gloss or with softlips or mix colors. Buy all of them.
Long lasting color
Easy to apply
Balmy
Amazing

Currently rocking - Honey, Charm, Cherish & Darling

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter

Look at me with the Revlon obsession. Who the heck am I?
This is basically a tinted balm - a sheer lip color, my shade Peach Parfait has a teensie bit of glitter which is kinda nice on occasion. I will sometimes wear this on top of a balm stain.






Now for two other random things to mention without mentioning my no good very bad this week/month/last two years....


Sensitive Facial Cleansing Towelettes with Cotton Extract (30 count)What is Burts Bees doing in the facial cleansing industry? What did I miss?
Was loving the Simple face wipes but dang $7 for 25 wipes? So I saw these BB wipes $5 for 30 wipes... I'm not a mathematician but me thinks that is a decent deal.
Haven't broken out at all!
Smell like baby wipes but I dont care.
Fany little closure.

Don't you love tiny doors to open and close? My mom has an xmas ornament - a little chestnut and you open it up and it is a little squirrels house! eeep! And she has a charm that is a house and you can open the roof and see the little bed and table inside!!



Watch it.












Ok. I feel better.
Happy friday eve!



*I linked up with Kelly's Korner SUYL. Kinda funny cause I never link up and I never talk about make-up. And if anyone actually clicked on my link and read my blog... sorry you wasted 10 minutes reading about Softlips, but check out Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee and it might be worth it.*
