Even If You're Broke, You Can Afford This Fab Beauty Find

You're broke. You're dying to pamper yourself - but every day, your purse strings get a tad bit tighter. You want to look like a million bucks, but that's almost how much you owe the credit card companies. And let's not even talk about your student loans...good grief!

Fret not. You've come to the right place. I've got a product that you're going to love - not only because it's totally worth the money, but because it hardly costs any money at all! I'm talking about Lip Sliders Tinted Lip Balm by N.Y.C.

Available in six shades, this emollient balm delivers a sheer pop of color with an intense gloss finish (somewhat wet-looking, which is totally hot IMO). The hydrating and conditioning formula contains rich botanical oils and vitamins, which soften and repair. Plus, the subtly sweet flavor and fragrance is a yummy treat.

The best part is you can pucker up with N.Y.C. for only $2.99. After trying it, I couldn't believe it either. I would gladly pay twice as much for this balm, thought I appreciate that the folks at N.Y.C. are thinking about my financial well-being. Lip Sliders Tinted Lip Balm would be a great item for The Price Is Right. It's such a wonderful product that no one would guess that it costs less than $3.

As a brown girl, I'm partial to the brighter shades - particularly Sugar Baby, a sheer red.

N.Y.C. Lip Sliders Tinted Lip Balm is sold at drugstores and mass market retailers nationwide.
