Did you know that these Cargo PlantLove lipstick tubes are made entirely out of CORN?

CORN! How fab is that?

Already Cargo makes some of the best lip products available, and these 100% compostable lipstick tubes makes us love them even more.

In this PlantLove Pink Lip Box Set, there are two PlantLove lipsticks in Sagamaratha (sheer rosey taupe cream) and Lindsay (sheer pink cream), PurseGloss in London (glimmering iridescent pearl), and Reverse Lip Liner.

Reduce! Reuse! Recycle! (While looking pretty, of course).

Yesterday as we ran around town doing errands and a little shopping, our bag was seriously weighing us down.

After examining the contents, we realized we pretty much need it all. (It doesn’t look like much here, but all together, this stuff weighs a TON!)

Let’s see what we have:

• This Coach Pebbled Leather Shoulder Tote is perfect for someone that’s always digging through their bag as it’s open on top. (This is not good when your bag tips over in the car, or when you’re wearing it on your shoulder and bend down to tie your 4 year old’s shoes and find your belongings all over the floor!) (Bag Snob will be so disappointed in us, but we just can’t bear to spend more than a few hundred dollars on a bag.)
• Appointment book and Anthropologie notebook. Both take up too much space, but are essential.
• Coupon for FREE panties at Victoria’s Secret. (Our daughter Bailey ended up scoring these).
• Two pairs of sunglasses are definitely not a necessity. The ugly studded Ralph Lauren discount glasses must go.
• The Brighton wallet overstuffed with credit cards, receipts, and business cards is not our favorite wallet, but fits easily into a smaller bag when we’re travelling or going out.
• Estee Lauder Pure Color Crystal Lipstick in Pinklight. (A tamer and more wearable alternative to Proenza Pink).
• Starbucks card! Don’t leave home without it.
• BECCA pressed powder in Sesame. LOVE this stuff!
• Cell phone. (Surprisingly, this is here. We’re ALWAYS forgetting our phone at home).
• This hot pink MAC makeup bag was a stocking stuffer for one of our daughters a few years ago but she never used it. Now it’s ours. Want to see what’s inside?

Nail files, MAC Tinted Lip Conditioner, Purell, Estee Lauder compact (it’s engraved with our name!), Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets, Estee Lauder Pure Color Lipstick in Tiramisu, baby nail clippers, ibuprofen, L’Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream, Shiseido Shimmering Lipstick in Rouge Irise SL8 and BECCA Glossy Lip Tint in Frappe.

After all that, the only thing we can do without is the extra pair of sunglasses. Damn.

Are you weighed down by your bag, or do we need to be jealous of your minimalist style?

Olivia Wilde is Stila’s new IT girl!

We know her from the O.C. and she’s now starring in the new NBC series, The Black Donnellys. Congrats Olivia!
