freezing

the unseasonably cold weather of the last 2 weeks continues here, which keeps me reaching for my richard donnelly dark chocolate lip balm. this stuff is just as good as kiehl's famous lip balm but tastes and smells much better. rich, creamy, and of course, chocolate-y. it truly should be called kissing cream; you'll find it prefectly suitable for men and women both.

i'm told that this will finally be available for sale on his website toward the end of this month. it's just beautiful stuff, and comes in a tiny decorative tin very similar to those used by t. leclerc for its exclusive luxury face powders. i'm not sure i understand why he's not selling it at barneys, bendels, or bergdorf. . . it stays on nicely, survives even a cold drink, and gives your lips a barest hint of sheer nude color, altho' it looks dark in the tin.

normally in the winter i'm wearing carmex and kiehl's shimmering pink gloss. now i've ditched it for the chocolate lip balm, mac tempting, and mac clear lipglass. . .done right, you seem to be wearing nothing at all, but are simply somehow prettier. . .
