my lips are addicted

I have one addiction beside my converse shoes, lip balm. I’m addicted to my lip balm 24/7. I always carry one of my five lip balm wherever I am. They all are around the house: My jacket pockets, in several drawers and I even found one under my bed! They are basically everywhere! Clockwise from the left:

- Carmex. I tried one in a jar when I was in San Francisco and got shocked when I found out they were hanging there in the our supermarket in Norway. In my opinion, carmex are ok. They have their moments where they work and moments where they not working.
- Mentholatum. This is one I got from a friend as a Christmas gift and it is bought from a drugstore. This is the closest perfect lip balm I ever tried and I love the peppermint smell.
- Nivea. I only use this one in the summer and spring time. Because it is the only thing that I know whom got a high sun protection.
- Savex. I haven’t used this one as often I use Mentholatum, but I have used it sometimes. It’s ok, but it is not better than Mentholatum.
- Rosebud Salve. I got this one from Sephora when I was in NYC. I love the colour of my lips, when I have this on. They give the soft pink color and soften my lips. I use the Rosebud Salve as lip-gloss, I will say they are better than lip-gloss.

Do you have any recommends on a good lip balm?

stills from an education

On the way to the states, I got to see a lot of movies on the flight. The movies are one thing I like about planes, because you get time to see movies that you haven’t got time or money to see back home. Before being on the plane, I had longed to see an education for a long time. After seeing the trailer over dozen times. And for my big surprised they had the movie on the flight! I was thrilled and excited. An education is one movie I really recommend if you like 1960s, like i am,and fashion. i drooled a lot on Jennys clothes(the main person in the movie). the dresses she wore, was so beautiful ! Carey Mulligan truly deserves the oscar nomination for best actress. Beside good acting and costumes, I liked the soundtracks and the story. The music fitted so perfectly for the movie, and the story was cute and a little bit sad.
