Okay, guys… erm… gals… whoever actually. In this case it doesn’t matter. The main objective of this post is to share a little skin/beauty secret with you all that I think is particularly important for this time of year. I was never a huge lip balm addict until I came across Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1 this fall. I was handed a complimentary tube from my manager at work because of a promotion that was being done between the two businesses. Point is… this tube of lip balm changed my life, or rather my lips! It contains Cotton Seed Oil (great for softening skin) and Oxtinoxate (an excellent UVB ray absorber that helps prevent skin from burning in the sun) and comes in regular or scented varieties. I would best compare it to Vaseline, but better, because it’s yummier. I am loving my Pear Balm to death right now, but it’s working magic. And it will for you too. You don’t want chapped lips caught in any photos, do you? Or what about mistletoe moments? Don’t get caught off guard. I’d say they are essential for your emergency wedding day kit, and they make great stocking stuffers too.
