So, I’ll admit to being a beauty product hoarder, and the main product I hoard is lip balm. But, it’s not because I am an addict; it’s because I’m on a quest to find “the one.” Every time the latest lip balm comes out, I grab it, try it, and if it doesn’t make the cut, it joins the rest of the half used pile. … Continue reading Natural Beauty Brand Review: Pucker Paste Lip Balm
