ashley wagnerJulie Hewett Organic Camellia Lip Balm - Ruby : Review. More Organic Goodness !
A little over a year back I wrote about my love for Julie Hewett's Camellia Lip Balm. Back then there was just one kind - natural. One year later there are two new munchkins joining the group ! Their names are rose - a see through pink tinted lip balm and ruby - a red tinted see through lip balm.
No points for guessing it forehand !
Since last Friday I haven't worn anything on my lips other than Ruby. An out and out red lipstick is hard to do everyday but a red lip balm of the sheerest kind is no problem at all ! And sheer juicy natural lips only gave me more incentive to try deeper shades on my eyes ! I have an everyday brown and a deep purple tutorial coming up !
Apart from the new colors the packaging is new too ! They are not only available in pots ($20) but are also available in palettes/pans ($18). I say go for the pan because the design is just gorgeous ! It almost looks like ivory on black wood - but its not ! Also its a lot more easier to use than the pot !
The old good things about the lip balm still apply - its organic , still contains camellia oils which is the closest there is to natural oil our skin produces and can be used on your face , nails, cuticles, elbows !
Love,
Indian Girl
PS : If you love the brand stay tuned because there is a lot lot more new goodies from them ! Check them out on their site

Flying car? Here's what it is like!
Founded in 2006 by award-winning Massachusetts Institute of Technology-trained aeronautical engineers and management whizkids, Terrafugia is a company with a mission: to provide innovative solutions to the challenges facing personal aviation.
The result: the Transition Roadable Aircraft.
Its unique design allows the Transition to fold its wings and drive on any surface road with a modern personal airplane platform.
Once at the airport, the wings extend and the aircraft is ready.
Powered testing of the Proof of Concept has been ongoing since the second half of 2008.
Construction, testing and certification of the Production Prototype will follow completion of the Proof of Concept's testing program.
First customer delivery of a Transition Roadable Aircraft is expected to occur in 2011.
To date, Terrafugia remains privately funded by a group of accredited individual investors.
The company is based just outside Boston in Woburn, Massachusetts, USA.

After landing, the pilot activates the electro-mechanical wing folding mechanism from inside the cockpit.
The wings fold, once at the root and once at the mid-span, and are stowed vertically on the sides of the vehicle in less than 30 seconds.
Simultaneously, the engine power is directed to the front wheels with a continuously variable transmission.
Before flying, the pilot extends the wings and performs a standard preflight. The engine power is directed to the propeller for flight through a carbon fibre drive shaft.
If bad weather is encountered en route, the pilot can land and drive without worrying about ground transportation.
At the destination airport the pilot can fold the wings and drive off the airfield without having to move bags or arrange for additional transportation.
Driving and flying can be combined between multiple airports as it is not necessary to take off and land at the same field.
