Me and the Fam! I have news. A few weeks ago I celebrated my 40th birthday. It was my second COVID/lockdown birthday and I wasn't even sad about it. I'm not a huge birthday bash kind of girl, so not having to break the news to everyone that there would be no crazy party felt sooooooo good. I've thought a lot about this post. About turning 40. What do I want to share here to help document this milestone birthday?

If there's one makeup item I can't live without it's a lip colour of some sort. Between tinted lip balms, lip-gloss, or a long lasting crème or matte lipstick, I'm never without something on my little pout.
My go-to brands have always been Revlon, L'Oreal and MAC so it's no surprise my favourite red is from L'Oreal. When I need a good pop of colour to stand out or break up my usual all black outfit, I tend to lean on this red beauty - #315 True Red to be exact. This lipstick is everything I could ever want in a colour: creamy, soft on my lips, and saturated colour. And I literally wear it all year long - but it's especially amazing in the Fall!
What's your go-to, "can't live without it" lip colour?
