Three Girls Gossip



Today, July 29th, is National Lipstick Day and this makeup item has had its share of controversy! Queen Victoria considered makeup hugely impolite and intended only to mark the most inconsiderate of women. However, Winston Churchill found lipstick to be a wonderful morale booster and refused to limit its production during WWII.
 
Today, in 2016, Three Girls Media is proud to represent and promote terrific lipsticks from Ancient Stones Nurturing Naturals made from top-quality, all natural ingredients. Find them at www.AncientStonesMineralMakeup.com
 
We asked each member of the Three Girls team to share their favorite way to paint their lips:
 
Erika- My favorite brand of lipstick is CoverGirl Outlast. I hate it when I end up with lipstick on my teeth or need to reapply it all the time. Outlast is a great solution as it stays on all day long, even through eating and drinking! It's really a put it on and forget it cosmetic which works perfectly for my work and personal life. It is expensive, but I think it's totally worth it. I must have a dozen different shades! I'm also a huge fan of Ancient Stones Nurturing Naturals for their high quality lipsticks, and Burt's Bees tinted lip balm when I want to moisturize and add just a hint of color, and. 
 
Beth- I don't wear any lipstick, but I love using chap stick to keep my lips soft and hydrated. Yes To Carrots is a favorite organic brand of mine, and I also like Burt's Bees.
 
Danielle- I'm currently in love with KV Apothecary Beet Balm. It's a natural lip balm made with beet powder to give a hint of color. I found it at the farmer's market last month and I can't leave the house without it.
 
Natalie- My favorite lipstick is Urban Decay's Orange Lip Crayon- it stays on all day and has a great color! I'm also a fan of CoverGirl's Katy Perry Matte Lipstick. 
 
Emily- I don't wear lipstick enough to have a favorite, but my favorite lip balm is Burt's Bees of almost any variety.
