Buxom's Full On Diamond Lip Polish

I'm not going to lie.  I have considered lip injections.  Duck face?  I've done it.  In fact, I've got a case of semi-duck face in the photograph below!  Ha!

Fortunately, thanks in part to Buxom's Full On Diamond Lip Polish, I have yet to have needles poked into my pout.  My lastest obsession is the shade, "April".  It's pink, sheer, extremely shiny, and full of brilliant diamond sparkles.  The formula is smooth, soothing, and slightly minty.  The slightly sticky texture ensures long-lasting staying power.

Price: $19.00

Note:  I am very frugal in general.  However, I will splurge on this gloss because it's worth it!  It lasts forever!

As you can see, my lips appears fuller and healthier when I've got this gloss slathered across my pout.  I love wearing this alone or layered over pink lipstick.

What is your favorite lip gloss?

Essie Polish F.T.W.

Earlier this year, my beloved Seattle Seahawks took down the Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl.  Sure, our team is incredible.  However, the truth of the matter is, my nail polish is what led us to victory.  The glossy, inky blue hue I carefully brushed across my nails weekly was worn symbolically to support my boys in college navy, action green, and grey.  It was the only color I'd wear during the latter half of the N.F.L. season.

I'm kidding!  That said, I'd be lying if I didn't get a tad bit superstitious during the football season.  (Hey, according to Coors: "It's only weird if it doesn't work."  Ha!)

Essie's "After School Boy Blazer" is a beautiful deep shade that appears almost black once applied.  Enjoy the eye candy:

This polish applies very easily; two coats was more than enough to achieve the color you see above.  When combined with O.P.I.'s base coat and the infamous Seche Vite top coat, it had excellent staying power.

Do you have a favorite football team?  Are you superstitious?
