Sephora's Birthday Gift

It's my birthday month and that means a free gift from Sephora. Last year was a Philosophy's shower gel but this year was  Fresh Sugar kisses mini duo in Sugar Rose and Sugar Fresh . I've never been tempted to try this product but never have and this was a great chance to try it. 

This gift was a mini duo and when not given as a free gift, it's 22.50 for one .15oz. It has Spf 15 and it feels fabulous on the lips. It leaves a film of non heavy wax or something on the lips that prevent my lips from drying out. It doesn't feel heavy nor does it have an unpleasant scent. Smells fruity. I like the feel of a heavy chapstick that sits, yet seeps into the lips because I can then tell that I still have chapstick on the lips. I don't like the ones that disappear completely. Unlike the Korres, this doesn't leave a gritty feeling and keeps me moisturized for a good amount of time. 

 This is the Sugar Fresh - clear in brown case that twists up. No color and keeps it moisturized.

 This is what it looks on bare lips. No color but leaves a sheen on the lips.

This is the one in  Sugar Rose Tinted - sheer berry rose. This deposits almost no color and I wouldn't notice a difference between this and the clear one.

After the Fresh, I then applied the Sugar Rose on the lips.

Final thoughts: I really like this duo. It doesn't have a heavy vanilla scent like most, nor does it have methanol (dries up the lips more). It feels great, but for the price, I don't know about repurchasing. If I had a good amount of disposable income, I most definitely would splurge on this but right now... not a reality. I choose to spend all my money on sweets.

Crumb's toasted coconut cupcakes! I had to make do with the plain non toasted ones, but this tastes better and has filling. This flavor was sold out all of the three times I went during the week. I try to wear a hat or change my appearance somehow, otherwise the counter ladies might call me a freak. I mean I am but I'm a sugar freak! I also try to maintain my diet and still exercise but it hasn't been easy. Look what happened.

My new sneakers started to dig in and peel off a good chunk of the back of my ankle. I haven't been working out  so this wasn't an encouragement. I thought this only happened to ill fitting heels and people in a circle of hell for misdemeanors. This is the first time it happened because of sneakers. Ouch.
