Lipstick Day & Tips

PUCKER UP, IT'S
NATIONAL LIPSTICK DAY!


It's that special time of year dolls: July 29th is National Lipstick Day, so prep your pout and pucker up, as you select your best shade of lipstick and flaunt those lips! My pillow~pout is mainly seen bare with a coat of lip balm, but I've been rocking lipstick (not my typical lipgloss) more and more lately. 

Before you paint that pout, be sure your lips are exfoliated and hydrated, especially if you're going with a matte shade.. because what’s a great lipstick without the right lip prep? Sara Happ, Founder of Sara Happ Inc., has been mixing up her cult-favorite lip scrubs for 10 years and has since developed a full line of lip products dedicated to perfecting your pout. Loved by celebrities and makeup artists alike, these products will prep your pout for a smooth lipstick application just in time for National Lipstick Day.

STEP 1: rid your lips of unwanted dryness and flakes with Sara Happ’s The Lip Scrub
STEP 2: prep your lips for lipstick with Sara’s ultra-hydrating The Lip Slip Lip Balm
STEP 3: apply your favorite lipstick
STEP 4: top it off with a shine enhancing gloss

STEP 1: The Lip Scrub

Sara Happ’s The Lip Scrub ($24) eliminates dry, flaky skin leaving lips ridiculously soft and supple. All Lip Scrubs come packed with food-grade essential oils (like Grape seed oil, Sweet almond oil, Jojoba), which suspend sugar crystals to ensure lips are hydrated while being gently yet effectively exfoliated. Application:Massage a generous amount onto lips using a firm, circular motion. Wipe away with a tissue.

Flavors:

Vanilla Bean – The first flavor Sara whipped up. A comfy delight, like your favorite pair of jeans.

Brown Sugar – The go-to for those who are finicky about fragrance. Simple, straightforward. A classic.

Crème Brûlée – Sara’s favorite dessert made into her favorite product. Hints of warm, burnt vanilla, the lightest creamy caramel. Pastry chefs rejoice.

Peppermint – Perfect to use in the morning, post-coffee. A wake-up call for your lips.

Sparkling Pink Grapefruit – Designed to be a “true” grapefruit in every way. Why mess with something nature made so beautifully?

Sparkling Peach – Bellini meets lip treatment. Not too sweet, not too tangy… just the way we like our favorite cocktail. Cheers!

Confetti Cake – No need to wait for your birthday. We believe you should celebrate in little ways, every day. (Limited Edition)

(NEW!) Peony – In our hometown, Los Angeles, these beauties come but once a year. Sugared with just a hint of floral. Our most exquisite flavor to date. (Limited Edition)


Because every girl needs a perfect peachy-nude and a ballerina-esque pink, Sara Happ has answered with The Nude Slip and The Pink Slip ($24), both available at Nordstrom. Wear them for a polished tint all day, or slather them on at night as a moisture treatment. What color claims to double as a night treatment? Sara’s.
