The Lipstick League — week of 5.2.11

in fun stuff,must reads

Good morning…or afternoon, wherever you are my dears! I woke up a little too early for a Saturday morning here on the west coast but I’m going to try to take advantage of my longer day and complete a lot of things I’ve had going on around here. Spring cleaning, anyone? Have you done any of yours yet? My dream right now would be to have Merry Maids come and do all of the major stuff like the baseboards…UGH! But on a more pleasant note, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY weekend to all of you Moms out there. You rock and make the world go ’round. xo

Time for this week’s question, and as always…PLEASE answer it along with me. Leave yours in the comments!

Question: What’s your favorite fragrance? If you don’t have a favorite, what are you currently loving?

Ha! This one is easy-peasy for me. I LOVE anything that makes me smell like I just came out of a dryer, washing machine, or shower. Soapy scents are my absolute favorite. I will forever own a bottle of CLEAN Warm Cotton, and I mean that. I want to be buried with one. But because I like to switch things up, the newest from Calvin Klein, BEAUTY has been what I’m wearing most these days. It’s perfect for everyday, and for special occasions—and seems to fit where I am in my life right now!

Time for this week’s Lipstick League links, go check ‘em out!

    Hello Lipstick League~

    So what’s your thoughts on lip stains over lipsticks? Better, worse, indifferent???

    ~Cheers

    Hi Mel! This is just my opinion, but I don’t really think they are comparable. I prefer a stain for when I want the certain look it gives me—kind of like I just ate a red popsicle and it stained my lips. But lipsticks for me on the otherhand are when I want rich, creamy, and very pigmented color. A long time ago when I used to teach, I would layer a stain under my lipstick because I was talking all day and needed it to stay, but other than that…I use them for two different types of looks ;) I hope I made that sound like it makes sense!
