Get the Look: Creamy, Summer Lips

June 24th, 2010 by Crystal

Cherry popsicles always remind me of bright lipsticks. The chubby bullets are just the right shape and leave behind a sweet stain for the lips. I wish someone would invent a lip product that tasted, felt, and looked like them!

Until that genius product is made, I’ll console myself with some creamy, summery lip colors. Throw on a pair of sunglasses, cute dangly earrings, and a swipe of intense blush and I’m out the door with these fabulous tubes in tote.

For the longest time, thoughts like “I absolutely need the eye serum and eye cream to prevent crow’s feet!” have prevented me from packing light.

But now that I’ve seen the light, I want to share my travel essentials with you. Not only will it save room in your luggage and lighten the load of a bulging carry-on but it will make you feel smarter too!

Here are my top beauty picks to look gorgeous while exploring new locales. All but one of the picks is carry-on approved and is less than 3.4 oz or 100 ml in volume.
