I was so excited when the Makeup Wars Team decided to feature our favorite lipsticks because I have a single lipstick that I have been reaching for, almost exclusively, this summer. I have a penchant for nude pink lipsticks, and KJAER WEIS Lipstick in Honor is the one!
Finding the perfect nude pink lipstick is, without question, a considerable feat. Many nudes have a tendency to make the wearer look more like the queen of the zombie apocalypse, rather than chic and retro. As luck would have it, nude pinks are my Achilles heel, and as such I have tested and swatched many before finding a few against which all others are compared. My latest covet-worthy nude pink is KJAER WEIS Lipstick in Honor, and not only is it a stunning ultra-luxe lipstick, but it is also a green beauty brand that uses high quality natural ingredients, and doesn't use petroleum, parabens, artificial fragrance or petrochemical emulsifiers.
While I seldom spend much time dwelling on product packaging, because I am generally more concerned about what's inside, I have to say that this impressive sculptural lipstick tube is a weighty metal masterpiece. In fact, the only lipstick tube that is in its category, of chic minimalist design, is the Guerlain Rouge G lipstick tubes.
According to Kjaer Weis,
Simple but not plain. Beautiful but always genuine. We love when things are done right, made right, and are built to last. In clothes we buy, in the food we eat, we are now able to be conscious about the products we use without having to compromise for quality. So why not beauty? Kjaer Weis is leading the movement with high-performing, luxury makeup that is, as everything should be, organic and sustainable.
KJAER WEIS Lipstick in Honor is described by Kirsten Kjaer Weis as a, "well-balanced nude with pink undertones"– which is an apt assessment. KJAER Weis suggests that this is best for pale to medium complexions, and that it was inspired by “the coy innocence of 60’s starlets like Brigitte Bardot and Jean Seberg...." It is, in my opinion, unmitigated nude pink perfection.
KJAER WEIS Lipstick in Honor is an ultra-pigmented lipstick with "a rich, semi-matte, velvet finish" that lends itself to full opaque coverage. The initial texture in the tube is a little drier than some lipsticks, but akin to certain matte formulas. However, this ingenious formula is activated by the warmth of the skin, and it melts into the lips beautifully. Honor glides across the lips without incident, deposits color evenly, and it neither settles into lip lines, nor does it migrate. It is very hydrating thanks to ingredients such as shea butter and jojoba oil, and the waxes, such as beeswax, account for its long wear-time. This lipstick formula has the right amount of cushion for comfortable wear, and while it has a light aroma in the tube there is no detectable taste.
Claims:
A nude well-balanced with pink undertones, Honor works best with pale to medium dark skin tones
A rich, semi-matte, velvet finish more opaque than Kjaer Weis Lip Tints
Moisturizing, organic ingredients like shea butter and jojoba oil are activated with the warmth of your lips, keeping them smooth and drenched in color
NO artificial ingredients, such as petroleum, parabens, artificial fragrance, petrochemical emulsifiers
NOT tested on animals
Gluten FREE
This product is not vegan
As with all Kjaer Weis products, this lipstick is refillable.
KJAER WEIS Lipstick Honor
I swatched Honor next to, the now discontinued, Tom Ford Nude Vanille, and I prefer the color, finish and formula of KJAER WEIS Lipstick in Honor. While the colors are similar, Honor is more pink than the peachier pink Nude Vanille. Furthermore, KJAER WEIS is cruelty-free and organic, whereas Tom Ford Beauty is not.
Select Ingredients:
Cera Alba (Beeswax): Naturally hydrophilic skin protectant
Jojoba Seed Oil: Natural moisturizer for the lips
Sweet Almond Oil: A natural emollient used to moisturize and promote skin elasticity
Rosa Rubiginosa Seed Oil: Minimizes scarring and signs of skin aging

If fighting frizz and fly-aways is an ongoing battle for you, then I have been having great success keeping these pesky issues at bay with White Sands Orchids Oil. This silicone-based hair oil effortlessly tames frizz, smooths out hair and leaves it soft, manageable and shiny. It has a light floral fragrance, but it is neither overpowering, nor is it long-lasting. I simply apply a small amount of this mid-weight emollient oil to my damp or dry hair, and work it though its length, and then either let it air dry, or blow dry it. It's just that simple, and it's completely fuss-free.
According to White Sands,
Orchids Oil extract restores moisture, shine, elasticity and softness to hair that has become damaged from chemical treatments, and thermal stress. White Sands’ interest in Orchids for hair is inspired from studies that have shown the orchid’s mysterious capacity for longevity, beauty, and its versatility to adjust to different environments with vibrant color. Orchid oil is very light weight, unlike most other oils it does not affect the hairs ability to perform when styling.
Overall Assessment: I am very pleased with this hair oil, and love that it allows me to effortlessly comb through my freshly washed curly locks. If you like silicone-based hair serums, then this is definitely one to try.

Painted Earth Skincare Earthereal Face Oil is a lightweight, and yet very rich and fast absorbing, luxury face oil that is antioxidant rich, ultra-nourishing and intensely hydrating. It effortlessly melts into the skin, leaves behind no greasy residue, and it makes the skin feel deliciously soft, smooth, supple and luminous. Furthermore, it softens the appearance of fine lines by lightly plumping them, and therefore improves the overall appearance and texture of the skin.
The wonderfully woodsy natural aroma, which calms and soothes the spirit, is a perfect before bedtime treat to help you drift off into a peaceful slumber. This oil is intended for all types of skin, and it definitely works beautifully for my normal/combination skin.
According to Painted Earth Skincare,
Enchanting high-powered and antioxidant-rich oil, this facial oil delivers serious hydration, nourishment, and anti-aging benefits to balance all skin types. Designed to deliver nutrients and emollients deep within the skin to improve skin elasticity and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, this oil protects against environmental damage as well visible signs of premature aging. It also supports a stronger skin barrier as it locks in revitalizing moisture and refines texture for a supple look and softer feel. Skin looks plumped, smooth, and lit from within. This nutrient rich combination of precious oils and rare herbal extracts high in antioxidants is known to be restructuring and supportive through phytosterols, which floods skin with hydration and beauty benefits. Soft and ultra-smooth, skin glows with translucency and head-turning radiance.
Directions: To activate your serum and help it deliver nutrients deep into your skin, apply it with the Push/Press Method. Start with clean, toned skin. Place 1-2 squirts of the serum in the palm of your hand. Gently rub your palms together to activate the serum and evenly distribute it to both hands. Place your hands on both sides of your face and press firmly. Push the serum into your skin by repeating this technique on your entire face, neck, and decollete. Repeat the entire process for 30 seconds.

While I have only been using Nubian Heritage products for a relatively short period of time, it has become one of my favorite brands that has secured pride of place in my daily routine. Indeed, my shower is filled with their beautiful products, and I wanted to share a few that I have been using all of the time this summer. Their skincare products are cruelty-free, made in the USA, and they are such a pleasure to use.
Nubian Heritage Goat's Milk & Chai Bar Soap ($4.99 for 5 oz. from Nubian Heritage, The Vitamin Shoppe and Swanson Vitamins): This lovely bar soap gently exfoliates dead skin cells while hydrating, softening and conditioning the skin. It boasts a creamy light lather that neither strips the skin, nor does it leave behind a greasy residue. It has a faint warm aroma from which one detects rose, honey and chai. I keep this bar at my bathroom sink, and love how soft it makes my hands.
According to Nubian Heritage,
Skin-softening Honey is added to this naturally rich and moisturizing Goat’s Milk soap. The heady aroma of roses and chai works with the moisturizing fatty acids in Goat’s Milk to cleanse & hydrate. Rose petals provide light exfoliation while Shea Butter conditions the skin.
Directions: Apply to washcloth or hands, create rich lather and cleanse. Rinse well. Follow with your favorite Nubian Heritage body lotion or infused butter. Avoid contact with eyes.
Ingredients: 100% Vegetable oils: palm oil and/or coconut oil, vegetable glycerin, organic shea butter, goat's milk powder, rose petals, rose extract, honey, camellia sinensis (chai) leaf extract, rose water, mineral pigment or vegetable color, natural fragrance and/or essential oil.
Nubian Heritage Olive Oil & Green Tea Body Wash ($12.99 for 13 oz. from Nubian Heritage, The Vitamin Shoppe, iHerb and Swanson Vitamins): This all-purpose cleanser is non-stripping, gentle and hydrating, and is suitable for all types of skin. It forms a creamy rich lather that releases the delightful scent of olive oil and green tea, and together they provide a wonderfully refreshing shower or bath experience.
According to Nubian Heritage,
A gentle cleanser formulated for dry, dehydrated skin. Infused with a blend of botanical oils that soften and smooth skin, it helps to give a more radiant and youthful appearance. Leaves skin feeling clean and moisturized.
Nubian Heritage Honey & Black Seed Body Wash ($12.99 for 13 oz. from Nubian Heritage, iHerb, The Vitamin Shoppe and Swanson Vitamins): I have to preface this by stating that I am thoroughly obsessed with this body wash. There is something about the aroma– which has a deep, rich and creamy scent informed by the honey, black seed oil and honeysuckle– that is utterly intoxicating. It forms a rich and non-stripping lather that leaves the skin soft, smooth and hydrated, and it does so without leaving behind an oily residue.
According to Nubian Heritage,
Black Seed Oil and Arabian Honey blend seamlessly to create this skin-hydrating cleanser. Natural enzymes, amino acids and proteins boost moisture, perfecting skin’s appearance. Cleansed skin is left feeling smooth.
Unlike many sugar scrubs, which are suspended in a lot of oil, this one incorporates the oil into the sugar for a drier (and far less messy) application. The nourishing formula gently exfoliates dead skin cells to reveal soft, smooth, supple and hydrated skin.
Nubian Heritage Abyssinian Oil & Chia Seed Hand & Body Scrub ($12.99 for 12 oz. from Nubian Heritage, The Vitamin Shoppe and Amazon): According to Nubian Heritage, "This body scrub is a creamy fondant body scrub with 100 percent plant exfoliates in various grain sizes for soft, smooth skin that feels like new." The rich and deep aroma is indescribable, but suffice it to say it is captivating and soothing to the senses.
Nubian Heritage Coconut & Papaya Hand & Body Scrub ($12.99 for 12 oz. from Nubian Heritage, The Vitamin Shoppe, Zulily and Amazon): According to Nubian Heritage, "Coconut & Papaya Body Scrub. This creamy body scrub cleanses, softens and soothes the skin, thanks to its formula of nourishing coconut oil, shea butter, aloe vera and papaya." The aroma is a delightful tropical fruity scent that is both pleasant and comforting.
Left to Right: Abyssinian Oil & Chia Seed Hand & Body Scrub and Coconut & Papaya Hand & Body Scrub.
Nubian Heritage Olive Oil & Green Tea Hand Cream ($7.99 for 4 oz. from Nubian Heritage, The Vitamin Shoppe, iHerb and Swanson Vitamins): This is an intensely moisturizing hand cream that is mid-weight, but that promptly melts into the skin without leaving behind a greasy residue. It nourishes the skin and offers sustained moisture throughout the day. Hands are left soft, smooth and supple. The green tea and olive is very light, pleasant and refreshing, but the scent is not too assertive.
According to Nubian Heritage,
Our Olive & Green Tea Hand Cream is a nutrient-rich long lasting moisture treatment. This all-natural recipe is fortified with multi-vitamins, antioxidants and vegetable butters and oils to repair, moisturize and strengthen hard-working hands.
Nubian Heritage Abyssinian Oil & Chia Seed Hand Cream ($9.99 for 4 oz. from Nubian Heritage): I love to exfoliate my hands with the Nubian Heritage Abyssinian Oil & Chia Seed Hand & Body Scrub and then follow with this gorgeously aromatic hand cream that leaves hands so soft and smooth that it has to be experienced to be believed. It melts into the skin without leaving behind a greasy residue, and it delivers intense doses of moisture. The scent is a warm and creamy revelation!
According to Nubian Heritage,
A luxurious nutrient-rich treatment infuses skin with revitalizing moisture. Abyssinian and Chia Seed oils blend with Amaranth Extract and Ginseng for silky smooth, youthful-looking hands.
Abyssinian Oil was made famous by The Queen of Sheba, the ruler of ancient Ethiopia. Ancient superfoods, Chia Seed Oil and Amaranth Extract have been cultivated since the 16th century while Ginseng, rich in vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals, is used in traditional Chinese medicine. Complementing the ingredients, revitalizing properties, our package pattern symbolizes faith and celebrates the rich textile history of Ethiopia where some of the world’s finest cotton is grown.
Nubian Heritage Coconut & Papaya Body Lotion ($12.99 for 13 oz. from Nubian Heritage, iHerb and Swanson Health Products): This thick and rich body lotion has the rare distinction of immediately melting into the skin without leaving behind a greasy residue. The delectable aroma, which is a blend of coconut and papaya, is the embodiment of a tropical vacation in a bottle! The nourishing formula leaves skin soft, smooth, supple and hydrated.
According to Nubian Heritage,
This tropical-scented body lotion is crafted with nourishing Coconut Oil and vitamin-rich Papaya Extract, Shea Butter, Aloe Vera and Vitamin E to soften and soothe. Skin is renewed to reveal younger-looking, brighter skin.
It has been a while since I have tested out anything from Mally, and each time that I do I wonder why I don't use more of Mally's wonderful products. I recently began testing Mally Kiss Me Tinted Lip Oil and Mally More is More Mascara in Jet Black, and I really like the both.
Mally Kiss Me Tinted Lip Oil in Peach Me ($30.00 for set of three from QVC): I love wearing lip gloss, and therefore tinted lip oils are just my type of lip product. Peach Me is a lovely, and infinitely wearable peach tinted lip oil that looks and feels like a lip gloss. It is lightweight, it offers a glossy finish, it isn't in the least bit sticky or tacky, and it softens and moisturizes the lips.
According to Mally,
Tint your lips with this beautiful conditioning oil from Mally. Lightly tinted with color, the lightweight texture melts onto lips without feeling tacky, giving you soft, kissable lips with a high-gloss payoff.

Mally More is More Mascara in Jet Black ($20.00 from Mally, Ulta and Kohl's): This is a really effective, non-flaking, non-clumping, mascara that lengthens and defines lashes for dramatic impact. Furthermore, the brush separated lashes for maximum impact, and is able to reach even the tiniest lashes without incident.
According to Mally,
More is More Mascara's rich, creamy formula coats each lash on the very first stroke, for perfect definition. For a truly lush, "false lashes" effect, Mally designed a special brush to grip lashes and smooth the mascara out to the very tips for exceptional length and definition. Hello, drama mama! The tip of the brush has additional bristles that provide the finishing touch for lashes that look larger than life!
