I'm a lip balm, lip gloss, make-up and skin care fanatic. It all started with lip balm and has progressed from there, so I blame my love for all things beauty on my dry lips :)
I really like natural products and if I could find all natural products that actually worked I'd keep my whole routine natural. Unfortunately most of the natural products that I've tried don't work very well.
I'm also a huge fan of anything that's fragranced and flavoured. I love beautiful smelling products and always smell products before I buy them, because if they smell bad then I won't use them. If a lip product tastes great then I have to buy it. In my ideal world all lip products would taste good.
If you haven't already guessed, the one product that I can't resist is lip balm, followed closely by lip gloss.
I love finding products that are unusual and unique.
I'd love to have access to the amazing range of products that are available in the US, I'm constantly seeing products online and being annoyed that I can't get hold of them (UDPP being one), but it's probably very good for my credit card that I don't have access to all the brands I'd like too.
Another love of mine is the Asian beauty lines. They have some gorgeous brands and products, if only I could read the labels.

My Beauty Secret:
Bobbi Brown's Corrector is my beauty secret. It's a little pot of magic that instantly hides my dark circles without sinking into my fine lines.
My Routine:
I'm pretty quick. I can get ready for work (hair and make-up) in 10 minutes. If it's a special occasion I'll take about 1/2 an hour.
My Horror Story:
I'm sure I've got one but it must be so traumatic that I've blocked the memory.
My Celebrity Look-a-like:
I get two totally different ones, Uma Thurman and Shelley Long. Personally I don't see the resemblance to either of them.
Shizen (pronounced Shi-ZEN and meaning what is natural, existing as formed by nature, not artifical) is an all Australian company that make products containing 100% natural essential oils and ingredients with nothing artificial.
I've always had a problem with cracked lips, and it's due to this that my lip balm addiction started (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it). As a teenager I was always searching for a product that would heal and soothe my cracked lips.
