Butter Me Up

April 29, 2009

I was recently sent a press kit for a mineral lip gloss brand called Tallulah.  Included were 4 shades in simple packaging. 

Being a nudist myself (solely in the lip arena), I immediately gravitated towards a pretty pale shade called Skinny Dip.  According to the (very well designed) press materials, it’s a fave of Hillary Duff.  And, well, we all know what that means….

Absolutely nothing beyond a nice fact to include in a blog post.

I very carefully squeezed the tube to deposit precisely the right amount.  As some of you know, I have an OCD-like compulsion to spare wasted product caused by the clumsy and careless hands of overzealous junkies.  I often have to turn away when the tip of a tube has post-application left-over product and the user obliviously twists its cap back on.  Ummmm…. Disgust.

But back to me and my Skinny Dip… ;)  I applied this sheer, shimmery wash of nakedness and was pleasantly pleased to pucker up to the scent and taste of Butterscotch, a candy I have no interest in now as an adult but reminds me of my grandmother, which makes me smile.  And any gloss goes best with a smile.

Another happy fact:  Tallulah’s glossary line is “100% paraben-free, with minerals and a natural humectant [say what??] that work together to draw and lock in moisture.”

I have to say, my luscious and tasty lips were moist all day.

Tallulah is available online at tallulahcosmetics.com and the gloss has a $16 price point, not including tax or shipping fees.

    I’m so nauseated by the image of the tip with excess gloss being screwed back into the cap that I can’t even comment on this entry.
