I went to BlogHer and came home with a bunch of free stuff I’d never heard of before.
Like the best shaving cream in the entire world.
And more lip gloss than I’ll ever use in my entire life. Seriously. Apparently there was a marketing pow wow somewhere and everyone decided the best way to reach women is through shiny, shiny lips.
I already had a favorite lip gloss long before I was introduced to the mountain of swag. So color me less than excited to receive 382 new tubes and bottles and vials of lip stuff.
Until I accidentally for some reason tried the Yes To Carrots lip gloss one day when I couldn’t find my normal stuff.
Hello, love.
And also? Gorgeous.
Yes To Carrots is apparently some kind of organic, non toxic lip gloss. Honestly, I’m a smoker. I’m not really agonizing over the chemicals I’m putting on my lips. But, hey. YAY FOR ORGANIC WHATEVER! Right?
Right.
More importantly, this is one of those rare tubes of lip gloss that doesn’t make your lips sticky. And every smoker knows that sticky lips are annoying. (God help me, if the people at Yes To Carrots ever stumble on this review they will have anuerisms en masse, I just know it.)
ANYway, my point is that I love this lip gloss. It makes my lips soft and gives them just a tiny bit of color and shine without leaving me sticky. And you know that thing that cheap lip gloss does where your lips actually feel more dry a few minutes after you’ve put it on? This doesn’t do that. At all.
But the very best part is that you can buy Yes To Carrots at Target.
(and drugstore.com)
Those of you who are not slaves to Sephora – you’re welcome. Your Bonne Bell Lip Smacker days are finally behind you.







Hey! I can by the shave cream at the Walgreens about 3 blocks away! Score!

I saw these at Target the other day, I’m definately going to try it now. I’m more so a Body Shop makeup girl, but I’m open minded

I’m curious, how long is lip gloss suppose to last?? I know, my current lip gloss supply is pretty old so I am looking to replace it. By the way, I LOVE your site!!! Thanks!!

The lip gloss is pretty good, I wish it was more vibrant in color.
BUT the chap stick by Yes to Carrots, AMAZING!!!! It is so natural feeling and it smells great! Not that cheap smell like Cherry Chapstick. I have Berry and Lemon, both are great!!
