I Might Have A Coffee Mug Obsession...

I drink loads of coffee, tea & cocoa. I need an arsenal of coffee cups so I always have one on hand.

I have mugs from various vacation spots, different fandoms and I can't forget the owls! Silly novelty mugs are definitely a favorite. I fell in love with this one when I saw it.

I've never had a glass mug before, so I didn't know what to expect. I was initially worried about how hot it would get. 

The glass is very thick. I haven't held the body of the mug right after pouring my beverage in, but the handle stays cool. After a few minutes, I'm able to hold the whole thing without discomfort. 

The handle is thick and sturdy. There is a seam down the middle of it. I'm assuming it's from a mold. It's only bothersome on days my hands are hurting me. Damn you, Neuropathy! I don't know if this is something that would irritate someone with normal nerves. That's not a dealbreaker for me though.

Even though I have a ton of mugs, this one has been my go-to since I recieved it. At 13 ounces, it holds plenty of hot beverage. It has held up to lots of washes. The print is bold, clear and great quality. 

As a photographer, who constantly says and writes "Today I shot a baby, a family, my sister, etc.", this mug was just too perfect! I think the quality is great and it is quite durable, even in my clumsy hands. I give it 5 out of 5 stars and would totally recommend it. I would even check out Make Em Laugh's Amazon shop for more silly drinkware.

Sucker For A Red Lip

I am obsessed with all red lip color period. I also love natural, organic products. It's an added bonus if it smells and tastes good. Skin2Spirit combines all of these things and now I am in lip gloss heaven! 

Skin2Spirit is a small, women run company in Pennsylvania. They use certified organic ingriedients like Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, Castor Seed Oil, Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil and Cocoa Butter in these lip glosses. These glosses are Lead Free, Petroleum Free, Non Toxic, Cruelty Free, Vegan and Phthalate Free!  I am all for supporting such a business. 

There are several colors available, but as a red lover I got this Botanical Lip Gloss in "Merlot"! How perfect?

You can buy your own here.

This lip gloss comes in a 0.23 fl. oz. tube with a standard wand. It opens and closes perfectly and the wand applies the perfect amount of gloss. It sweeps on silky and smooth. The color is translucent, but you can build it up if you want it darker. I love the versatility of it. All the ingredients are listed right on the tube. The photo on the top right is right after application and on the lower right is after four hours of wear with no reapplication.

I also applied the gloss over a red lipstick. It brightened it up and gave it a nice shine. I will wear this both alone and over lipsticks for several different looks. This gloss smells and tastes delicious! It is made with vanilla and I have to try really hard not to lick it off of my lips. It is hardly sticky at all, and feels really moisturzing. The color stays for a few hours, even with food and drink. I was surprised at how well it held up.

The gloss came in a cute little bag with Skin2Spirit's card detailing the company. What a great gift idea! I give this lip gloss 5 out of 5 stars. The color is lovely. It lasted longer than I expected. It's all natural without all the harmful ingredients found in most makeup. The scent and taste are to die for, and they even have more colors! I would definitely recommend these to any makeup fan. I'm in love!
