I know I have warned you about my love of lip care. Whether it is pulling double duty as a moisturizer and color, or whether it is purely a gloss, or lipstick, I am a lover of them all!

I was thrilled when I was asked to review the lip colors that Yes to Carrots was just unleashing on the beauty loving world. And of course, I am happier to be able to bring my findings to you!

(L to R) + Chocolate Kiss, Natural Smile, Ready Red, Cotton Candy, Sunset Pink, Coral Sunshine

(L to R) + Chocolate Kiss, Natural Smile, Sunset Pink, Cotton Candy, Coral Sunshine, Ready Red

I love to be able to stick a little color in my pocket for quick pick me ups for my face, and the C Me Blush Lip Tints from Yes to Carrots is nice and thin, and totally pocketable. Add to that they are 95% made with Organic ingredients, and that they contain NO: phenols, petroleum, phlates, carmine or parabens, make them that much more kissable!

What they do contain is:

All-natural, 95% organic ingredients
Organic vegetable extracts & vitamin E provide antioxidant protection
Coconut, jojoba & sunflower oils nourish and condition
Shea Butter soothes and hydrates
Beeswax locks in moisture to form a protective barrier
Mineral pigments add color naturally

They are really great moisturizers, and the colors are fun, and nicely sheer but with enough pigment, that if you layer, you can get some depth.

(L to R) Cocoa Loco, Playfully Nude, Rose bliss, Flirty Pink, Carrot Kiss, and Red Hot

I was also able to sample their new Lip Glosses. Completely non-sticky, and chock full of moisturizing ingredients too! High color, with shine that can be seen across the room! Again that contain none of the nasties mentioned above, but contain oodles of moisturizers, like beeswax, jojoba, and coconut oils.

A little about Yes to Carrots:

In case you’re wondering we use proprietary technology to extract the beneficial molecules from this delicious produce so the right ingredients penetrate the skin and do their job in making you look and feel fabulous!

And, we NEVER EVER test our products on animals.

My other favorites from Yes to Carrots is the Tender Touch Hand Cream, very light in scent, perfectly moisturizes, and leaves hand soft but able to function!

The Hand Spa. oh, this is sooo nice! Dead Salts mixed with Olive Oil, Sunflower Oil and Jojoba plus other nutrients slough away dead skin and cuticles, and replace them with extra non greasy moisture. I am not sure how they made this with just the right combo of liquid and Salt grains, and yet leave your hands moisturzed and not greasy is beyond me, but I hope they keep doing it!

I have a giveaway too! I have a set of Glosses, and a set of Lip Tints to give to two Prissy Green Readers! I will divide them up so that each winner received 3 of each, and I will alternate the colors so each winner receives the each color too! Each winner will receive about $33 worth of lip colors!
