Emily Awards 2012: LIPS!


Yay for lips! As a lip product addict who has tried lots and lots of different products, I'm rather picky when it comes to naming favorites! We all know it's not just about how pretty a particular product looks as soon as you apply it to your lips- but also how long it wears and how comfortable it feels.  I hope you discover some new favorites in this portion of the Emily Awards! 

Guess what? It's not over yet! The final part of the awards is the Finale! 
If you want to know about favorites for brushes, tools, skincare, body, hair, and nails... 
plus the MVPs (Most Valuable Products)... you must tune in! 
Look for the Emily Awards Finale Monday on Beauty Broadcast!

*Denotes the number of years a particular product has won. 
This is the 5th year for the Emily Awards.

Yay!! The Emily Awards :) I totally agree with you on NYC Moist Lipwear Sheer Red being one of the best red lip colors out there. It just works on every skintone I've paired it with!

Love too faced nude beach! If you like the Buxom line check out Pretty Amazing lip color! It's a gloss/lipstick with some amazing staying power (hence the name I guess) it doesn't dry up like most long lasters! Thanks for doing the Emily awards! I can't wait for the finale!

Need to know what foundation you were wearing and what powder looks flawless !!!!

Thank you so much for this series! I have been waiting all year for it!! I have a suggestion for a high end tinted lip balm: Korres Lip Butters! I am sure you have already tried them, but if you haven't check them out! I suggest wild rose (sheer red), pomegranate (sheer coral pink) and jasmine (sheer lt pink - basically clear). They have a nice scent and really protect your lips and feel so nice!

Love the Emily Awards Series! One of my favorite red lipsticks from drugstores is Revlon's Colorburst Lipstick in Crimson!

Does Tarte Lip Surgence leave a stain/tint throughout the day? They have pretty colors.

Picked up Revlon lip butter in Cotton Candy. My Wal-Mart didn't have the Neutrogena jumbo lip pencils. I really want to try them. I picked up some of the CG lip perfection jumbo gloss balm in shades 205 and 210. Will check my Walgreens they sometimes have a better selection. Loved all the videos for Emily Awards!

Thanks for taking the time out of your day to cater to us lip junkies! I love the series and I love what you do! Have you tried the new Nivea lip butters? I've seen them at CVS, but i'm curious to know what you think Em!

This was my first year checking out your Emily Awards and I watched all of them straight through taking notes! Thanks for my 2013 beauty shopping list ;) Maybe next year you can make a printable PDF of your list? *crossing fingers*

I have loved all products I have bought based on your recommendations. I have dark, dry skin and just have to get my hands on those Neutrogena lip products you like and the Wrinkle Repair Serum your mom likes.
