It’s National Lipstick Day!
Good morning and happy Caturday! — and, dun-dun-dun! — happy National Lipstick Day. Celebrating lipsticks nationally, all across the land. ?
This whole week I kept planning to wear a bright and crazy color on the actual day, but I ended up wearing one of my go-to MAC everyday pinkish browns, Creme in Your Coffee , and I’m actually going to wear it when I head out to Starbucks to get a coffee in just a bit.
MAC Creme In Your Coffee
Speaking of MAC, if you happen to be headed to the counter or store this morning, they’re giving away free full-sized lipsticks to celebrate National Lipstick Day. You don’t have to buy anything, either, just show up! Get there early, though, because it’s while supplies last.

Of course you’ve gotta listen to a song called “Lipstick” on National Lipstick Day. And yes, sometimes I listen to country music!

An acoustic version of “Gypsy,” one of my favorite songs. Love you, Stevie!
What lipstick are you wearing today?! Did you go with a bright shade or a mellow shade?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
