elizabeth arden red door red lipstick review

wearing: lipstick c/o Elizabeth Arden in Red Door Red #2 / white and silver earrings (similar here) / black top (currently on major sale!) / blue nail polish /

How fun is this classic red hue from Elizabeth Arden?! It’s a bright and chic shade of classic red; which is a lipstick color we all need in our beauty bag. This one in particular has a special history and mission.

In 1912, Elizabeth Arden marched as a Suffragette down Fifth Avenue in New York. As a symbol of solidarity with her fellow Suffragettes, she handed out red lipstick to all the ladies. In order to celebrate Elizabeth Arden’s history of advocating for voter rights, I have partnered with Elizabeth Arden to feature this fabulous red lipstick! Loving red!

Red Door Red #2 is a classic red hue from her Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick collection; which includes several fabulous hues. The lipstick itself has strong staying power, and doesn’t smudge easily. It stays put! Love that!

In addition to staying power, Elizabeth Arden’s Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick doesn’t dry out lips, it does what it’s name implies; it keeps lips moisturized. Love that too! I definitely need to add a few colors from this collection to my fall beauty bag.

Shop my waist-up look online; perfect for video conference calls!

Don’t forget to vote! I don’t care if you vote red or blue, just vote! Americans have fought hard for the right to vote, so please, exercise your right as an American citizen and vote. Not everyone has the privilege to vote, so don’t take it for granted. Just vote.

Thanks for stopping by!

Late summer skincare refresh

Elemis Superfood Glow

I have been blowing through my skin care products this summer; so when Elemis sent me their Superfood Glow cleanser and primer, I was thrilled! Summer is a heavy skin care season due to all the outside activities, sun, water activities, and wind! If you are like me, you are outside more during the summer months, than any other season, exposing your skin to the elements. This means we all need extra skin care, and extra protection!

I am in love with the Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Cleansing Butter. It not only purifies and removes makeup and daily pollutants, it has a slight pumpkin scent! Love a pumpkin scent during the late summer months as we start to transition to a fall schedule with school starting; and we start eyeing fall merchandise for our wardrobes! One more cool thing about the Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Cleansing Butter, if you leave it on for ten minutes, it doubles as a mask! Love that! It’s a cleanser and mask in one jar!!

Are you wearing makeup this summer? Yeah, me neither. I only put on makeup about once a week. That’s why I am thankful for this Elemis Superfood Glow Priming Moisturiser. You can wear it alone, without makeup, or use it as a primer for makeup. It adds just the right amount of luminosity. Love!

I hope you love this skin care collection by Elemis as much as I do!

Thanks for stopping by!

My current lipstick rotation from top: mauve / red / brown-red / blue-red /

Happy National Lipstick Day 2020! Although many of us are running around town wearing masks, we still need lipstick for video conference calls. After all, without lipstick, I look washed out online; don’t you? Plus, there is something about putting on lipstick before a video conference call that offers a sense of normalcy in all this.

National Lipstick Day is a great day to take advantage of sales, gifts-with-purchase, and other fun deals offered only on this special day. I love national days!

There are three really fun, online events for National Lipstick Day happening today. I hope you check them out, and enjoy them with me! Without further ado, here are the top three National Lipstick Day online events worth checking out:
