This week I'm obsessed with... Buxom Plumpline Lip Liners!

Buxom Plumpline Lip Liner - $20 - in 20 shades: Code Red - true red, InfraRed - orange red, Scandalous - magenta, Femme Fatale - blue pink, Intrigue - melon, Confidential - peachy nude, Ransom - pink nude, White Russian - pale pink nude, Stealth - nude, Dolly Danger - mauve, Restricted - rose, Incognito - warm nude, Hush Hush - cinnamon, Undercover - brown, Covert Affair - burnt red, Cloak & Dagger - burnt red, Anonymous Allure - grape, Mystery - plum, Espionage - blue red, Stakeout - blackberry - a plumping lip liner with versatility to define, shape and fill in lips - plus, a built-in brush on the other end to help blend, contour and define.

There are a lot of things for a lazy makeup person like me to love: while technically it's a liner, it has such thick pencil design that I use it as an all over lip colour too eliminating the need for a lipstick step; it has a creamy texture that goes on easily and a matte finish that doesn't settle into lines; and it stays on so well and lasts all day that unless I do something majorly greasy at lunch, no reapplying needed!

Available now at Sephora and sephora.ca.

This week I'm obsessed with... Buxom Full-On Lip Cream in Cherry Flip!

Buxom Full-On Lip Cream - $23 - a creamy lip gloss with no shimmer, glimmer or glitter just velvety-smooth color with intoxicating shine.

With hyaluronic filling spheres that infuse lips with moisture for creamy soft perfection and the look of a full, extra-kissable pout and Vitamins A & E  to help keep the skin supple, yet protected.

What I especially like is the fun tingling sensation which reminds you the gloss is hard at work and freaks the hell out of my husband when I kiss him!

In 10 shades: Kir Royale - rich wine, Mai Tai - vivid coral, Lavender Cosmo - lilac pink, White Russian - nude pink, Creamsicle - peach sorbet, Mudslide - petal pink, Purple Haze - rich grape, Pink Lady - electric pink, Berry Blast - vivid fuchsia - and my new love:

Cherry Flip - which even though describe as red poppy, is nowhere near that dramatic on the lips making it  a very wearable everyday shade!

Available at Sephora and sephora.ca.
