lipbalm_heroMary Kay just released a new product that is terrific!  Tinted Lip Balm with SPF 15.  Here is a list of why I love this new product:

– Made with Jojoba Oil and Shea Butter moisturizers (oh so good for your lips!)

– Sheer Color in 5 Shades so it’s all you need

– Use it like chapstick and put it in your pocket/purse

– SPF 15, broad spectrum, blocks UVA/UVB rays (your lips need sunscreen too!)

– Ingredient Vitamin A and C (antioxidents)

– Sleek black tube looks great, plus color button on bottom so you know which color it is

– Only $13 and it’s your chapstick, lipstick, and sunscreen all in one (love the  multitasking products to save money)

I’ve been using my new Blush color daily and am loving it!  Read more about these on my website or by clicking here.

Here is an interesting tidbit of important information for all of you ladies who wear a mineral powder foundation! There are several mpf’s on the market today claiming spf protection.  It seems like a great idea to have your foundation and spf coverage in one, however, according to Leslie Baumann, M.D. you would need to apply your mpf on average 14 times as thick as the normal person does to achieve the claimed spf in the mineral powder formula. So, it is important to wear a sunscreen with an spf of 15 or more before your foundation, then apply your mineral powder foundation or cream foundation.  

By the way, I am a huge fan of mineral powder foundation – it is on the top of my favorite products! If you want to try a great mineral powder foundation, I personally love Mary Kay’s.  It is light, easy to apply, great for your skin, comes in great shades, and is so reasonably priced ($18 jar that lasted me months!)  It is so easy to apply and gives me such great coverage I have completely switched over from my ex-love Medium Coverage Foundation.
