I chose Wild Berry Wink, which is actually a true red color.

Product Review #1: Covergirl Lipstain
Today I went to Ulta and bought this lipstain. I put it on as soon as I got in the car...and I LOVE it! The color is rich, not sheer, it lasts like a stain should, smells good, AND is cheap. Get some!

Sniff it Good
One beauty component a lot of people take for granted is fragrance, which is a shame. Perfumes should be personal, carefully selected to match the wearer. Besides, shopping for fragrance is fun! Price ranges, ingredients and forms vary widely, from spices to flowers to fruits, and splashes, mists, parfums, oils, and toilettes.
Another shame is even though you may have chosen the right scent for you, not everyone knows how to wear it properly. To get the full-bodied effect of the fragrance, you have to apply it to certain places on the body that will release the scent uniformly. French women know how: they spritz inside both their ankles, behind both knees, inner thighs, cleavage, pulse points, and the nape of the neck. Twelve squirts may seem like a lot, but the scent payoff lasts all day, and inevitably someone will tell you you smell good.
Here are some of my personal favorite scents. Try them for yourself, or something new!
I went through 3 bottles of this because I was complimented on it constantly!
It's a nice balance of citrus and floral.
A musky floral blend of rose, jasmine, sandalwood and powder.
Fruity. A lot of guys like this scent.
A very light fragrance with a hint of coconut, perfect for spring.
The intense form of the original. A heavy floral.
Happy sniffing!
