Lips for Fall.

As I've mentioned before in my Passion Flower Sneak Peak post, Aveda has a new 2012 Fall/Winter makeup collection out called Passion Flower. It has three new lipstick shades called Wild Fuchsia, Rare Orchid and Snap Dragon. I've used myself and the lovely Jessica as models to show you what these colors look like on.

All Aveda lipsticks go on smooth and hydrate lips all day, each has an organic vanilla and spearmint aroma, increases moisture and smooths lines up to 26% and 75% of women noticed fuller lips after 2 weeks of use.

in order of appearance: Tarragona Lip Pencil - Snap Dragon Lip Color - Wild Fuchsia Lip Color - Rare Orchid Lip Color

1. Start by hydrating lips with Nourish-Mint Renewing Lip Treatment for smoother lips and better application of color.

2. Outline and fill lips with either Foxglove, Tarragona or Nourish-Mint Lip Definer. This prevents feathering and makes lip color last longer. I used Tarragona under Snap Dragon, Foxglove under Wild Fuchsia and the Lip Definer under Rare Orchid.

3. Fill lips with chosen color, make sure to pay extra close attention to areas like the cupids bow and corners of the mouth.

dry remedy moisturizing treatment masque

Did you know that cooler and drier weather can really take a toll on your hair? Winter weather is harsh on hair, but it's nothing a little product can't fix. I'm talking about Aveda Dry Remedy Moisturizing Treatment Masque, this ultra rich and luxurious formula uses buriti oil, pomegranate and palm-derived conditioners to penetrate deep into the most dry and brittle hair. This amazing masque improves dry hair up to 63% and has a relaxing aroma including certified organic palmarosa, ylang ylang and rose geranium, plus a hint of vanilla. The Dry Remedy Masque is best used once a week on damp hair for 2-10 minutes, it is also safe for color treated hair. Using this hair masque regularly will dramatically improve the condition of your hair, especially in the dry winter months to come.
