29.....or 7???

How old am I?! I recently turned (gulp) 29. It's the last year of my 20's and I made a promise to myself....I'm going to be more sophisticated. I'm going to take more pride in my appearance. I'm going to be chic. I'm going to be the woman that everyone notices. First on my list...a wonderful lip color. Something that makes me want to smile more. Something that makes my lips buttery soft. Something with the perfect sheen, the perfect color. So, what did I reach for? Chanel? Clinique? Mac? Bobbi Brown? Nars? Close. I reached for a blast from my past. Ye old faithful....Bonne Bell's Dr. Pepper Lip Smacker.

It sounds so silly, but it really is the perfect thing for my lips. It adds just the right amount of color without the weight of a lipstick and without the stickiness of a gloss. And, it brings me back to 2nd grade in California, when my cousin, Cori, and I would jam out to "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys, slather on Dr. Pepper Lip Smacker and drool over Fred Savage in her older sister, Treana's, Tiger Beat magazines. *sigh* Love it!
