Being a mom is a 24/7 job, even on Mother’s Day! So before I forget that I’m supposed to honour myself too on Mother’s Day aside from honouring my mom, mom-in-law, and other fellow moms, I gotta pamper myself first!
No, I can’t afford yet to go on a 3-day holiday in a hotel with spa treatment and all, but I would love to look live I’ve just been there. And sometimes, a single trick like makeup would do. And again, I can’t afford to spend some time applying full makeup everyday so the quickest way would be grooming my brows once every two weeks and putting on something to tint my lips.
There are just days when I don’t feel like putting on makeup at all, but having just a lipstick on makes a lot of difference. And being a practical mom that I am, I want my makeup to have great benefits on my skin as well, and not just to make me look good. That’s what would make me want to use a cosmetic product everyday, like Fresh Sugar Tinted Lip Treatment, which has sunscreen SPF 15, and of course keeps my lips moisturized.
I have these tinted lip treatment babies in Sugar Nude and Sugar Rose. Love, love, love having these two! Sugar Nude is very natural on my lips, but with shimmer. While Sugar Rose is a natural tint too, but on the coral side and without the shimmer, which I love.
Their labels say they’re proven to provide moisture for up to 6 hours, and I think it’s about true. I only applied it twice in one whole day. I really felt the rich moisture on my lips, and it eased off some minor chaps. And the great thing is, I got compliments when I put them on without any other makeup!
Sugar, they are called, because they’re made of (you’ve guessed it) sugar! Sugar is a known humectant which prevents moisture loss. I should know, because sugar adds moisture to cupcakes! But the sugar in these lip treatment products is cosmetic grade, of course. And mmm, I sure love the taste on my lips.
While the antioxidant properties of the Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment balms are from their blend of essential oils (jojoba oil, grape seed oil, avocado oil, meadowfoam seed oil, blackcurrant seed oil, and sunflower seed oil). These natural oils help keep lips soft and smooth. So this is what made my Sugar lippies so addictively smooth to glide.
Plus the SPF 15 protection is very much welcome to my lips, because we tend to neglect our lips when it comes to applying sunscreen all over our face and body, without knowing that our lips need sun protection too and they would tend to darken without it!
I love these Fresh Sugar Tinted Lip Treatment balms and I can’t enjoy them alone. These have got to be the best Mother’s Day gift for young moms and not-so-young moms with young kids, if you know what I mean. Check out the Fresh Sugar line because there are just so many colours for all your mom friends and sisters!
