Remember I told you about how much I love the Baby Lips lip balm by Maybelline? I haven't stopped obsessing over it, and I thought, what better than to give it away? If you haven't read my review of this lip balm, read it here. This lip balm is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. No kidding. Usually, I pick the winner randomly, but this time will be different. You have to leave a comment to tell me why you want baby lips. But first, the rules below: 1. Open to U.S. residents ONLY 2. You must do all 4 Read More
I don't know if I have ever told you how obsessed I am with glossing my lips. I have a big jar of Vaseline petroleum jelly that is literally part of the decor of the living room.

Let me tell you, there is nothing you can say to convince me that I am not in a lotion commercial. Most of the time when I get ready late, it's because I am taking my time with my lotion. I remember when I was in elementary school in Nigeria and my teacher had made a joke about how women were always smiling and taking their time while rubbing lotion in commercials, and although I was only a child then, I found his words funny, and years later, I find myself doing the same thing.
