(Giveaway) Lip Service: Three Ways to Get a Perfect Pout for Valentine’s Day

13 February 2011 59 Comments

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and you have to get those lips of yours kissable for that special someone. Nearly every cosmetic company has a lippie that will match that fabulous dress you plan to woo your man in. Here are three ways to score those kissable lips:

Condition (aka, “leave colorless”):

EOS Lip Balm

EOS Lip Balm is a great for dry, chapped lips. Keep this in your pocketbook as a pre-lipstick prep tool, because most are drying. Or dare to go “bare” for Valentine’s Day because –a lot of guys don’t like lipstick stains left on their own pucker. Celebrities are loving this balm. Khloe Kardashian, Whitney Port and even “The Situation” from Jersey Shore has been spotted using EOS Lip Balm. Available in various flavors, this nourishing balm can be purchased at any Wal-Mart, Target, CVS, Walgreens or Duane Reade. I love the packaging of this balm. The sphere is adorable and would make a great addition to a Valentine’s Gift Basket. Retails for $3.29

Just a Tint:

Burt's Bees

You have your champagne, your chocolate, all you need is for your lips to be ready for that romantic evening with that special someone. Burt’s Bees, a personal favorite of mine, has come out with a great solution, tinted lip balms. With just a hint of color, these balms are available in six shades with a sweet natural flavor. As other Burt Bee’s products, these balms are 100% natural and provide your lips moisture with shea-butter and Vitamin E. This will leave your lips feeling healthy AND kissable. Available at burtsbees.com and retails for $7

Lipstick Yourself, the Old Fashioned Way:

Ramy Lipstick

Ramy Beauty Therapy offers this adorable lip gift set packaged in a silver box with five full size lipsticks with names such as Celebrate!, Goddess, Smile!, Reminisce! and Chutzpah! all in a pink bubble heart. A favorite product line by celebrities such as Britney Spears, Katherine Heigel,Marisa Tomei, Ivanka Trump, Cher, Faith Hill among many others. Make your sweetheart feel like a celebrity with this limited edition set. Exclusively available on Ramy.com Retails for $45 .

We are giving away a few Burt’s Bees tinted balms to one lucky winner. Please leave a comment below and tell us your favorite DATE-worthy lippie to be considered.

    Dateworthy Lippy for me would be something with some color, but if there’s going to be some serious lip action, Burt’s Bees so my hubby’s lips don’t share the color and he can take advantage of my super soft lips!

    I keep my lips soft and supple by exfoliating about once a week and using either petroleum jelly or lip balm prior to sleep. I also keep a tube of balm in my uniform pocket and in my purse. I have them stashed all over. For date night, I love a luscious blue-red with a super-glossy gloss in the center of my lip. Thanks for the opportunity.

    I am a fan of Beauty Stat on Facebook. I shared the contest with over 60 friends on Facebook. I am a subscriber of Beauty Stat via Email. I am liking Smashbox lipgloss since it’s glossy and shiny. Nude-Brown shades are the ones for me since I’m tanned complexion.
