Have your Make-up and Eat it Too!!

Does anyone remember the Dessert Treats beauty range Jessica Simpson came out with? I managed to find some of her range lingering on Ebay and this sent me on a hunt to find more edible make-up. Let me know what you think of these finds or feel free to leave some suggestions of edible products on the market today.

DeVine Lip Shimmers

These are wine flavoured lip glosses. The flavours come in Rose, Merlot, Vanilla Spritzer, Bordeaux and Champagne. Rather than getting tipsy, you have this unique option to wear your wine! I think it's a good idea if you have the craving for the taste but don't want to down an alcoholic beverage. It costs US$5.99 for a two-pack

Urban Decay Sparkling Lickable Body Powder

This product is great because it's a shimmery powder that you can dust over your body. The flavours are honey, marshmallow and cocoa and though you can glow and look sparkly, you can also have someone kiss or lick the powder away. Good selling point to someone you are interested in ;) This costs US$29 on Urban Decay's website.

Lush Lip Scrub

Lush offer a vegan range of lip balms and lip scrubs. This lip scrub helps to exfoliate your lips but it is also edible because it's made of castor sugar. They offer a few different flavours and what I have listed is bubblegum. The lip scrub will also keep your lips smooth and if you need a little sugar fix, this is perfect! It costs AU$9.95 directly off their website.

Green Dragon Herbals Flavoured Perfumes

I know the picture isn't very enticing, but Green Dragon Herbals offers edible massage lotions, body powders and now flavoured perfumes. At the moment, they only offer a Vanilla Caramel and a Chocolate perfume for US$11.95. Green Herbal create natural products and ensure freshness in all their products. You will smell yummy and be edible by wearing these perfumes. Can totally have fun with it!

Eco Lips Pure & Simple Lip Care

Eco Lips creates lip care products made from organic materials. You wouldn't be able to find their products in store and the Pure and Simple range are 100% edible. The flavours offered are Grape, Kiwi-Strawberry and Coconut. They market for vegans also and promote that organic products are better for the environment. The cost of each lip balm US$1.99 each and the products used are natural.

Tootsie Roll / Junior Mint Double Sided Lip Gloss

I found this randomly on candy.com but it does say it is not edible. I thought I would mention it because it takes 2 American candy treats and infuses it into the lip gloss. I figure the flavour of the lip gloss would be close to actually eating the treats. This was listed as gifts under $10.

Jessica Simpson's Dessert Treats

If you are interested in Jessica Simpson's dessert treats, you can find the lotions and lip glosses on some make-up websites or Ebay. The pictures shown above cost about US$30-35 for the lotions. Amazon.com does sell the products also with the lip glosses starting from US$3.99. I can't remember if the lotions and lip glosses were edible but I remember the perfumes - Sweet Kisses being edible (if they still make them). Apparently this line was discontinued.

Jaqua Raspberry Buttercream Frosting Lip Whip

Jaqua has created a beauty range that is based on cake flavours. They sell lotions, body washes, body mist, body scrub, hand soap, lip gloss and body butter. The range sounds delicious and I think the fragrances would make you want to eat everything. I think the lip gloss is the only item that is edible and I have seen the items on Amazon.com for Caramel Cappuccino Lip whip and Mint Chocolate Lip Whip. The average price for this lip whip is US$14.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Let me tell you, it's hard to find edible products that weren't of the exotic kind. The main items that are edible are lip glosses. Hope this gives you an idea to pizazz your beauty range and have fun with it too! :)

Top 5 Beauty Products I Can't Live Without.... (for now)

Thought I would share my beauty products that I use regularly. All the products are under AU$35 and they might interest you if you have never used the products before. Let me know what you think.

• Maybelline The Falsies - Black Drama

I know that many beauty companies come out with products that will extend your eye lashes and make them look fuller. I'm a big skeptic because you know the models are wearing fake eye lashes. With this product from Maybelline, I believe it actually does what it says it does. After I apply it, I do feel that my eye lashes look longer and fuller. Of course this is not to the extent of the models in the pictures but it does work. Definitely a product I recommend.

• benefit BADgal smoldering black eye pencil

I use this pencil as a eye liner for simple looks. If I am going to work or just a casual day out, I will use this to just line the top of my eye. I never use this for the waterline. This eye pencil does not smudge or run. I think it's supposed to be used to make bold, smoldering eyes and blended with eye shadow, but I think it's perfect as an eye liner! Plus it lasts for a long time :)

• Olay Moisturising Lotion

It is essential that everyone moisturise their face everyday. I use Olay sensitive as my skin can react to certain beauty products and it is always good to moisturise before applying make-up. My skin goes dry if I don't moisturize and I have grown up with this product from when my mum used it back in the day when it was called Oil of Ulan.

• Revlon Colorburst Lipstick - Soft Nude

I was never a big lipstick wearer, until I saw Kim Kardashian on Keeping up with the Kardashians wearing a nude lip gloss with black smouldering eyes. I was determined to find a nude lip gloss because I prefer lip gloss over lipstick. I looked around in many retail stores but couldn't find one so I decided to buy the Revlon soft nude lipstick and add clear lip gloss over it when I wanted. For some reason, when I think of the nude lipstick look, I think of Audrey Hepburn. I wear this lipstick with simple eyes, consisting of black eye liner and black mascara. If you do buy a nude lipstick, don't buy one that makes you look pale.

• The Body Shop - All in One Face Base

This compact is a foundation and powder in one. I use this every day for work as it's not too heavy and perfect for simple make-up. You can use it wet as well to apply as a foundation - I personally just use it for a light cover over my face. It's perfect for when you need to apply a quick make-up job and head out. The colours the Body Shop offer are light in shade so I wouldn't recommend it for people with dark complexions. You also get the confirmation that the products are not tested on animals - which is always a win!

So there you have it! I keep most of these items in my handbag at all times because you never know when you need to touch up! These are just the basic beauty products I think that most girls should have and are affordable too!

Until next time.....
