Cold winters can wreak havoc on your skin.
They can be equally harsh on your lips.
My secret to keeping my lips silky smooth?
A couple of years ago, I found myself at a friend's house for cocktails on a Friday night in the dead of winter. Out of character for me, I found myself without chapstick and asked to borrow some.
"Here," she said, "try this."
She handed me a tube of the MK lip balm. It was the lightest, sheerest balm ever. It was great and I told her so.
"Oh yeah? Try this," she went on, handing me the lip mask.
I rubbed a pea-sized amount of the mask, or exfoliator, on my lips. After rubbing it around for a few seconds, I wiped the mask off and then re-applied the balm.
HEAVEN.
My lips were smooth and…dare I say it…sexy.
Now my Mary Kay Satin Lips set goes everywhere with me. I find I only need to apply the mask once a week or so, and all of my lipsticks look better after using it!

That stuff really is magical. Thanks for the reminder that I need to order some!
