It’s the first Monday of the new year - the first full week to start that New Year’s Resolution. (hey, this past weekend didn’t count, right?)
It’s the first day back to work or school for some, upon holiday leave.
It’s going to be the first time, in a long time, in which we enter a new era for the United States and all the world.
Putting first things first, drawing from experience and transcending the clutter, we realize that the essentials in life aren’t merely a form of support, but a source of clarity, peace of mind and wellness… and on a deeper level, a source of self-love and care.
Let’s usher in this first week of the year with a clear stride forward; let the happy new year continue through.
An all-too-common holiday challenge is finding a moment to yourself amidst year-end deadlines vs. squeezing in some holiday shopping online at the office, or heading to ‘that-store’ after work before closing hours.
The solution: intentionally cram less into a day off from work, be your fabulous, independent self and create the time to take your time… keeping it as simple as Jill’s day off, below, with her one beauty essential, the LIPSTOCK CHAPSTOCK Cream Lip Conditioner.
Cool, collected Jill seeks the perfect wine glass, window shops & browses magazines, with lips fully stocked.
Enjoy the holiday atmosphere… give thanks, take inventory of your life’s experiences from the past 12 months, envision new dreams & renew hope for 2009.

Crossing streets and avenues, surpassing thick layers of concrete, steel and glass; moving beyond interwoven crossings amongst dwellings, passages and passersby…
With lips stocked, moving forward, tuning in and zoning out thanks to the aid of mobile media and sunglasses in tow, we’re able to declutter the mind, nourishing our own vision and experiences in public, privately.
Breaking en route to your lunch hour escape or post-work haunt, find an open space, sit back and create your own experience… in the words of Salvador Dali*,
‘The best cinema is the kind that can be perceived with your eyes closed.’

LIPSTOCK CREAM provides a cream texture and a satin finish. For bare lips, create a soft, luminous effect by applying the cream lip conditioner over the entire lip area, slightly surpassing the contour of the natural lip shape. For color-lovers, apply once to prepare lips prior to shade application, then apply midday when refreshing existing lip color. As part of your morning and evening beauty rituals, apply as little or as often as desired to maintain healthy lip care.
