Handmade Fall Lip Gloss Trio
Unveiling a trio of lip glosses inspired by the grandeur of Fall – the season that makes the world look like a Bob Ross painting. My muses? The leaves turning more shades than a chameleon on a rainbow, the steaming hot cocoa that's richer than a billionaire on a foggy morning, and those eerily delightful jack-o-lanterns grinning away on neighborhood porches.
Whipping up these beauties felt like being in a mad scientist's lab, with pigments and mineral colorants flying around in a frenzied dance of mixing and blending. I swear, if I could, I'd marry this time of year!
Feast your eyes on my arm, turned swanky lip gloss runway! Strutting from left to right, we have the tantalizing 'Framboise', the delectable 'Dutch Cocoa', and the irresistible 'Pumpkin Spice'. Aren't they just a sight for sore eyes?
Typically, I play Santa and give away my glossy creations, but these three are making me feel more like the Grinch. I might just hoard them all for myself!
I made a lip gloss tutorial a few weeks ago, you can find the step-by-step instructions HERE of you would like to read it.
