Pucker up!

I am soo falling in love with this lip gloss! I was at the neighbourhood Bath and Body Works store when I spotted this amazing lip gloss which tastes like Wrigley's peppermint chewing gum! This C.O. Bigelow Lip Shine Mentha is extremetly glossy and, erm tasty! Protects lip from cracking which is great for the dry harsh winter weather. Comes in different flavours, such as Mentha Cinnament, Orange Soda and Spearmint! Definitely a lip saver!




On another note, if you are finding for a lip exfoliator - just is exactly what I needed due to peeling lips (not pretty), try Laura Geller's Lip Strip Cooling Sugar Rub from Sephora.com. It's a tiny jar filled with sugary goodness (organic Brazilian Sugar - I don't know why it matters so much) to scuff away dead skin from the lips and also filled with peppermint oil as an added moisturizer (+ tasty just like the Menthashine). I found it did an okay job as an exfoliator, but an amazing one for an after moisture effect.

Nonetheless, I've been searching for other lip exfoliators, some of are; Body Shop Lip Scuff and Benefit Cosmetic Lipscription. Know of any others? Feel free to leave a comment!

Ice Shot Glass Maker

Want to add a little zest to your party especially when serving alcohol?

Try this little Ice Shot Glass Maker from PerpetualKid.com for your next booze parties with a little flare! I was just browsing through this website that sells cool stuff, and found this nifty product hidden among its plethora of cool gadgets.
I love having guests over at my place and to some extend throwing "parties", and I sometimes find myself running out of "fun" ideas to keep the party going. I decided to get this Ice Shot Maker to try it out in my next party - a great conversation starter, and of course, to get people drinking!

The Ice Shot Glass Maker is basically an ice mold made of high quality and safe silicone rubber which can hold temperatures from -58°F to 446°F. This means you can fill it up with your favourite beverages like chocolate, coffee, tea, juice, soda - freeze em up and you'll all set to discover your very own flavoured shot glasses!! Filling the mold with liquid with an easy task, but removing the glasses takes a bit more effort. I had to push it out with a lot of force, but luckily for the material, it is sturdy and flexible you do not have to worry puncturing a hole in the mold.

So I tried mine with tap water and melted chocolate and looked how it turned out. Pretty okay huh? For a clearer ice glass, I recommend using distilled water which eliminates having a "cloudy" shot glass which is basically the mineral deposits from regular drinking water. For the chocolate glass, I used baking chocolate chips, melted it using a double boiler, poured the melted chocolate into the mold and refrigerated until it became set.

Cheers Darlin'!!
