Product Spotlight: Ilia Balmy Tint Hydrating Lip Balm in Runaway
Seriously, one of the very best “throw it on as well as go” lip colors!
If you have any type of plans to begin your holiday buying early, girlfriend, I’m going to support that 100%! I’m currently on a kick where I do things hella early, as in waaaay before they’re due, as well as I flat-out like it (more on this in a few).
Going back to the holiday shopping… may I suggest you begin with this charming bit number from Ilia for your buddies as well as fellow makeup lovers? I like it so much I’ve provided it as a birthday present twice, as well as I already mean to put it in a Christmas stocking or two.

Balmy Tint Hydrating Lip Balm in Runaway ($28) is a neutral rosy nude with a creamy surface as well as subtle shine. It’s a lot more pigmented than a lot of lip balms however less intense than a normal lipstick, as well as you understand what? It’s absolutely magnificent as well as just so simple to wear. I’ve used it in quite much all of my work meetings over the last couple days… have there been four? Or was it five? Seriously, I’ve lost count. I failed to remember that working with other people indicates a whole lotta meetings. Thankfully, this lip balm looks fantastic on cam as well as in genuine life, as well as I’ve been using it a ton!
It’s lightweight yet moisturizing, so my lips feel great when I’m using it, as well as I likewise like the light vanilla flavor as well as scent. The whole vibe is extremely comfy, like stretchy pants, except for…your lips.
And the color? Now, this may noise gross, however for some reason I truly like lip colors that are the exact same color as my gums! Weird, I know, however “gummy pinks” illuminate my face. It’s extremely my-lips-but-better, as well as I suspect that this specific shade will work across a large variety of skin tones.

I’m still an NC42 in MAC, by the way.
Fittingly, it’s called a lip balm, which I believe makes it noise a bit less intimidating as well as a lot more approachable than a full-on lipstick. Sure, it’s less intense than something full-coverage like Stila Beso, however when all I want is a quick touchup, I’ll get hold of Runaway over Beso any type of day of the week since it needs less precision.
I bought Runaway at Sephora since I desired the choice to return it, however next time I believe I’ll go to the Ilia web site instead. I heard they had a Black Friday Sale last year with 20% off everything. If they do that again, I’ll be there.
OK, so, back to doing stuff as well as showing up early…it’s my new preferred thing in the whole large world! Lately, I’ve been showing as much as visits 15-20 minutes early — from dropping Connor off at school, to going to meetings, to showing up to school-related events — as well as my world is permanently changed. car parking has been easier, I’m not stressed out about showing up late, as well as it just feels fantastic being one of the very first to arrive. I can’t believe I’m stating this, however if I’m there early, I’m a delighted camper!
