LUSH Red Dragon soap

“To celebrate the Year of the Dragon, we’ve created a beautiful, limited edition soap with our best-selling Karma fragrance. Part myth and part legend, we thought that the spicy blend of patchouli, lavender and pine perfectly captured the passionate, creative spark, and free spirit nature of the Dragon. Intense, earthy, and confident: have a wash with the power of our Dragon soap and your ambitions for the year ahead may deliver you with good fortune. At the very least you’ll be nice and clean, and smell scrumptious.”

Red Dragon really is a beautiful soap. The gold shimmer washes off after the first couple uses with hands, after the first wash with body, but you are still left with a beautiful Red Dragon. The smell is pure Karma; I LOVE that scent. The scent thankfully lingers, so prepare to be smelling your hands or arms just to catch another whiff. Red Dragon is a limited edition product, so go get it while you can.

Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balms

A hint of color that cares for your lips. 100% Natural

These are my favorite tinted lip balms right now. For those who found Maybelline Baby Lips drying, give these a try. They are all natural and moisturizing. They come in a variety of lovely, wearable shades from nudes, to pinks and deep berries.

Swatches of Pink Blossom and Rose

I’ve been wearing Rose all winter and I love the natural, healthy tint it gives to my lips. It’s natural enough for my 9 year old girl to wear as well. Honeysuckle and Tiger Lily are next on my list.

Purchase Burt’s Bees tinted lip balms wherever Burt’s Bees products are sold.

Cho – Full coverage, vanilla shimmer metallic

Farah – Full coverage, latte beige cream

Bevin - Full coverage, pale sage green cream

Skylar – Full coverage, silvered slate blue metallic

Tru – Full coverage, gilded purple orchid metallic

Lotus – Full coverage, light lotus purple metallic

Zoya TRU Collection is scheduled to launch on January 10, 2012. All of these had very good coverage, all photos show two coats of polish. My personal favorites are Cho, Bevin and Skylar. Cho is a really nice opaque, vanilla shade that applies smoothly. You don’t see that often.

The biggest drawback of living in the United States is that I can’t have this bra. Somebody help me.
