Lips:
Prep and Plump Gleam
This is a new lip color for me. I just love it! It has the most gorgeous sparkle in it -- on a par with, or better than, MAC or Too Faced sparkly glosses. It is a two step product. One end of the wand has a cream in it. The other has the gloss. There is no sting to the product. It is moisturizing and just simply feels good. I dunno if it looks particularly plumped or not. I just like the sparkle!
Application Technique in the order of application:
First, applied both sides of the Prep and Plump color.
Arbonne Gleam alone:
I think this is so pretty by itself!
Lined outer edges and outer corners: MAC Whirl pencil
This is a pretty color and fairly neutral.
Rimmed outer edges and re-applied center with Gleam. I wanted to soften and modernize the pencil look, but I didn't want to use another gloss as I just loved this one.
You can see how much it changes with a little pencil. It makes it more 'finished' and defined looking, but it does change the color.
Here's what it looks like full face:
Do you like it with or without the lip pencil?
To buy Arbonne from Bookgirl, if you don't have a representative, just ask.

I definitely like the one lined the best for the most refined look, but for casual day I also like the lips unlined…great color for you!
I like the look of the Arbonne Gleam alone. Very soft and pretty.
I’m having good luck with my new Arbonne skin care products. Not only does my face feel softer and look a bit better (I think!) after less than three weeks of using the facial products, I also found that “rough spots” and dry skin on my arms and body have simply disappeared and my skin is much softer as I continue to use the RE body products everyday. Nice Change!
Great, Joann! I enjoyed chatting today.
I have a hard time not thinking that lining with pencil is just a hard/harsh look any more. I prefer a softer look, but maybe that’s because my lip line is softer. Ya think?
I’m going to keep experimenting.
Thanks, Shari. I appreciate the comments!
