My other change has been my lipstick. I usually use Rimmel of London because they have fantastic shades for my skin tone, but I've switched to all natural Burt's Bees tinted lip balms, Lip Shimmers. I purchased raisin(more like dark pink) which goes one well, but like most lip balms, comes off easily. I still like it though, especially the way it moisturizes and tingles from the peppermint. It's a very fresh lipstick, and it was less than $5.00 at Walmart. I actually wanted something with more brown in it, but the raisin color is okay on me for summer. They do have some brown colors I like online: papaya and nutmeg, but I didn't see these at Wallyworld.
That's all I wear out of the house: a little foundation, lipstick, and some blush. I still need to purchase some organic blush.
As I was searching the Burt's Bees website for this post, I noticed that they sell a herbal deodorant with sage as the main ingredient. I've got tons of sage, more than I know what to do with, so now I've got another project - sage deodorant.
Burt's Bees Herbal Deodorant - ingredients: alcohol denat., water, salvia officinalis (sage) leaf extract, lavandula hybrida (lavandin) oil, citrus medica limonum (lemon) peel oil
Easy make at home ingredients. I've got the sage, lavender, and a lemon essential oil.
I already use Lafe's Deodorant Spray, but I love trying new things.
BTW, sage tea is nice...I'm drinking some with a little lemon balm and spearmint leaves fresh from my garden.

I really like the Physician's formula line. But, I did buy one of their blushes from their "organics' line, and the only complaint I have is that the container, made of paper looks schmutzy really fast.
I saw a new Nurse Practitioner two days ago. Now, I'm not sure if it's that she's ten years younger than me, but her skin was gorgeous. She claimed it was the Burts Bees facial cleanser.
So now, I must try some!
Thank you so much for you thorough post! We girls do like to look pretty.
WOW! You should have fun with all you new make-up!!
