The Lipstick League – week of 2.23.15
Question of the Week: What is the one part of your beauty routine that seems to get neglected most often?
Answer : As I was reading through some of the other ladies answers, I’m going to have to agree with Phyrra and said lotion! After showering, I NEVER moisturize. Is that bad? Probably. It’s just something I never seem to do!

Guest Post of the Week, as chosen by EauMG – One of my favorite perfume blogs, The Candy Perfume Boy, simply explains one of the most amazing technologies in the perfume world, headspace. It sounds so sci-fi and well, it sort of is. These are machines that captures smells. Yeah, really.
If you don’t find you need lotion after showering, it’s not so bad. It means you don’t suffer with dry skin. I never used lotion, until my 30’s. All my friends were obsessive that way, but I couldn’t be bothered. And I don’t think I ever needed it either. Though, I decided that I wanted to make sure I was hydrating my skin to the max once I hit my 30’s, as I’m getting older. So I do it now. But I still don’t like wasting time, and a lot of times I will put coconut oil on when I’m finished the shower, but before I dry off. Coconut oil absorbs into the skin better that way, it’s amazing for hydration. I lighty towel off and voila. Done! And moisturized and skin feeling gooooood 🙂
