Eden Cosmetics Liquid Lipsticks

A good lipstick is kind of like a good outfit, no? Just like a well put together outfit with a mixture of different colors and textures, a good makeup look should have the same appeal. My favorite way to wear liquid lipsticks is with radiant skin and a pop of shimmer on the inner corners of my eyes. Pair the shimmer with a matte lip, and you’ve got a well balanced makeup look.

I am in LOVE with Eden Cosmetics’ range of liquid lipsticks. The application is amazingly easy, and there is way less maintenance with these than there is with your typical lipstick. They stay on all day despite eating, drinking,  and kissing! Unlike many liquid lipsticks, Eden Cosmetics’ lippies are truly the least drying product I have tried. And I’ve tried A LOT!

Let’s talk colors, shall we?

Serene. This one probably my favorite of all. I love a good nude lip, and Serene delivers a wearable, not-dead looking color to your lips. It has a punch of warmth to it – I like that it is more on the coral side than pink.

On the left: Forbidden. A bold pinky red with matte shimmer – this one is SO gorgeous and so unique. It’s not your typical metallic liquid lipstick. It is more subtle and wearable. On the right: Wonder. This one makes a really fun statement lip! It’s a more wearable version of the gray hues that are really hot right now. Thinking I might wear this one to see Fifty Shades Darker…appropriate, right?!

Posh. A bold red that is more of a blue-red in tone than Forbidden. This baby is your true red color – classic and chic. It also makes your teeth look bright white!

Cashmere. In my opinion, Cashmere is the most versatile and the most wearable shade in the range. While it’s definitely darker than your basic nude lip color, it is still a nice everyday shade.

Swatches from left to right : Posh, Forbidden, Wonder, Cashmere, Serene

How on-brand is this packaging? Eden Cosmetics is a cruelty free company, which really drew me to want to try out their range of liquid lipsticks. The greenery can be seen on their website and social media channels, and I love how it was incorporated into the package that I received from them. 

What is your opinion on liquid lipsticks? What are your favorite color(s) to wear?

Thank you to Eden Cosmetics for collaborating with me on this post! All opinions are my own.

if you can’t go more than a day without washing if you can’t go more than a day without washing your hair (like me), let me introduce you to this 2-in-1 shampoo/conditioner combo that is truly so nourishing 🪄🧴 
@hairstorystudio NEW WASH was developed because most shampoos weaken the hair and strip out vital oils since most rely on detergent. New Wash is a cleanser but doesn’t contain any detergent & has a proprietary blend of essential oils & saturated cleansers. 
My hair is never greasy after using it and my dry AF scalp loves it! I’ve been using it for a couple of months now and I’m truly impressed by how nourishing it is for both my hair + scalp. ✨

I love trying new products and these are some ✨new✨faves of mine I have to share with you:

@saintjanebeauty lip oil: love a high-shine gloss and this is ITTT. It’s actually called a lip oil which did scare me before trying it, but really just feels like a gloss. It’s not greasy at all. the sparkly pink is my fave 💖 

@herbivorebotanicals moon fruit: calling all pregnant/breastfeeding mamas! this product is a retinol-alternative serum that's clinically-proven to treat signs of aging with 1% bakuchiol + plant peptides. I started using it a few months ago and really love it. I do miss retinol (still breastfeeding) but this is a gentler option. 

Burdock oil: I had no idea about this oil until I researched ingredients for the best scalp treatment and this is one of the ingredients I use in my DIY scalp treatment. However I’ve also been using it on my face to double cleanse because it is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. 

@lysbeautyofficial blush: this is the color humble and it’s the prettiest orangey pink which is fab for summer. I’m a cream blush convert because it’s so much more natural looking than powders. & this one is matte, so it won’t look greasy ✨
Your most beautiful life is meant to bring out you Your most beautiful life is meant to bring out your core values. 
I’ve always had a vision for my most beautiful life. But with anything, it needed some refinement (as with everything in life).
Since I have become deeply entrenched in coaching, I have been able to identify my core (vs acquired) values to be able to design my day/life. 🌸 
Some questions to ask yourself to do the same:

I’m your dream day, what are you wearing? 
What values are you living by?
What does your environment look and feel like?
Where do you live?
What activities bring you energy?
A gooddddd mint chip smoothie had been on my mind A gooddddd mint chip smoothie had been on my mind lately and I’d never actually had one, mainly because they’re usually made with banana….and I cannot stand bananas. SO. Knowing that mango can easily replace bananas when it comes to cooking, I picked up a bag of frozen mangos and went to town on crafting my own recipe. 

It legit tastes like mint chocolate chip ice cream 🍦

recipe:
🧊 ice
🥭 frozen mango
🥥 coconut cream
🥬 spinach 
🍁 maple syrup
🍬 peppermint extract 
🥜 almond butter
🥣 oats
🍫 Chocolate chips (I also add these in to the smoothie in addition to on top)
