Some tips for you to achieve the trend of Juicy Lips
Line, line, line!
A good lipstick look is never complete if you don’t use eyeliner. In addition to making your lips look much bigger, it will help give them a definition.
Try this combo, and you will see that you will love the result.
Another tip we have for you is to take care of the amount of product you apply. These lipsticks have super creamy formulas, almost with lip glossconsistency, so don’t twist your applicator too much and place a reasonable amount of product. To spread it on your lips, you can support yourself with a brush or your fingers better.

Our favorite lipsticks to achieve the Juicy Lips trend
About six years ago, Taylor Swift posted on her Instagram the photo of one of her favorite homemade desserts, which prepared her fans for the secret sessions of 1989 and quickly became a classic. Little time passed for the swifties to start asking Taylor for the recipe for her chai cookies, and she shared it through a post on Tumblr.

Every year, hundreds of people try to recreate the viral recipe and even upload videos of its process to Instagram and TikTok. This 2023 is no exception, and since autumn is a perfect time for thissweet and spicy flavor, today we share how to make cookies Taylor style.
The recipe is not complicated, and today we will share it with you so you can make your version of Taylor Swift’s Chai cookies.
Taylor Swift’s Chai Cookies Recipe…
As Taylor said in a post on Tumblr, there are two ways you can recreate this recipe, easy or difficult. For the easy one, all you have to do is buy a pre-made sugar cookie dough add a tablespoon of chai powder or an envelope of chai tea, and bathe them with Taylor’s special glaze, which we will tell you how to prepare later.
However, if you are one of those who love challenges and with a great pastry spirit, you can make the dough from scratch.
Ingredients for Taylor Swift chai cookies:
1/2 cup butter at room temperature.
1/2 cup vegetable oil.
1/2 cup granulated sugar.
1/2 cup icing sugar.
1 large egg.
2 teaspoons vanilla.
2 cups flour.
1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
1/4 teaspoon salt.
1 <>/<> teaspoons ginger powder.
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder.
1/2 teaspoon allspice (also called coarse pepper or sweet pepper).
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg powder.
1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder.
1/8 teaspoon of clove powder.
A pinch of ground pepper.
Do not worry if you do not find any of the spices: you can replace it with a little more cinnamon or simply eliminate it. We promise that your cookies will be delicious in any way.
The original recipe and the specific preparation instructions that Taylor uses were compiled by the blog Joy the Baker and here we bring it to you.
Preheat the oven to 176 degrees Celsius and prepare your tray with nonstick patchpaper
Using a mixer equipped with a popsicle attachment, whisk the butter into a large bowl on medium speed for about 1 minute. Add the vegetable oil. It may not be fully incorporated with butter, but it’s okay.
Add the granulated sugar, powdered sugar, and all spices. Beat to combine.
Add the egg and vanilla, beating at medium speed until completely incorporated.
Add the flour, baking soda, and salt at once with a wooden spoon or mixer on low speed.
The dough will be soft. Refrigerate for 1 hour or freeze for 15 minutes to make it easier to handle.
For large cookies, place 2 tablespoons of cookie dough on the baking sheet about 5 centimeters apart. For smaller cookies, use 1 tablespoon for each cookie. Press the dough evenly with your fingers or palm until it is half a centimeter thick.
Roll each ball into a small bowl of cinnamon sugar.
Bake 12 to 14 minutes for larger cookies or 8 to 10 minutes for smaller cookies.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before transferring them to the racks to cool completely.
In a medium bowl, mix the frosting ingredients until you get a thick but spreadable consistency. Spread the frosting in the center of each cookie, leaving the edges without frosting (they must be already cold). Sprinkle with some fresh nutmeg if you have it.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.

I’ve recently seen quite a few videos on TikTok sharing small things you can add to your life every day to elevate your day-to-day experience, and I love the idea of treating yourself to little luxuries. Let’s face it: Life can get pretty mundane sometimes as we work our 9-5 and try to keep things interesting. So adding small things every day that feel like a special treat is a great way to elevate and romanticize an average weekday.
You can mix up your weekdays by doing fun activities and just getting out of the house, but there’s no denying that there are some products that can elevate your everyday environment. Life is short after all, so we shouldn’t feel guilty treating ourselves to those little luxuries that make us happy. From ultra-comfy pajamas to beauty products that will transport you to a high-end spa, these are the items that make every day a little bit more luxurious.
At least once per week, I take an everything shower. You know the one—exfoliate, shave, hair mask, and every other beauty treatment I can squeeze in. After this revitalizing shower, I do one of my absolute favorite self-care rituals: use a body oil. Not only does it make me feel like I’m a glowing goddess, but my skin feels relaxed, nourished, and soft for days on end afterward.
With hundreds of rave reviews, you can add this product to your self-care (and everything shower) arsenal knowing it won’t disappoint. The scent has hints of bergamot, lychee, cedarwood, and white musk., so you’ll be transported right to a luxurious spa.
This diffuser has a ceramic cover, making it much more high-end than the not-so-cute plastic options you can find elsewhere. It comes in five gorgeous color options, so it’s guaranteed to look beautiful in any home. This bundle comes with four vibrant essential oils for energy and overall good vibes.
A more affordable option when it comes to high-end pajamas, this short set comes in more than eight adorable colors and patterns. This set is buttery soft, so trust us: Once you start living the luxury pajama life, you’ll never go back.
Our editors swear by silk sleep masks to get the beauty sleep we deserve. This option from Slip will definitely elevate your everyday sleep experience, and they’re even better for improving sleep while traveling.
It’s no secret that we’re obsessed with Barefoot Dreams here. We’ve raved about the robes and the blankets, but these socks are our new favorite. These will have you feeling extra cozy all fall and winter long.
We promise you that this top-rated vibrator is the definition of everyday luxury. Add this to your cart, and your future self will definitely thank you.
It’s time to trade in those old plastic cups and invest in some beautiful glassware. It’s truly shocking how fancy you can feel by drinking a beverage—whether it’s your iced coffee or a cocktail—out of a pretty glass.
Of course, treating yourself to a coffee from your favorite coffee shop is the ultimate treat, but why not recreate that feeling at home? Wave goodbye to sad morning brews with the help of this handheld milk frother with over 100k reviews on Amazon. You’ll be a barista in no time.
As much as we hate to acknowledge it, the colder months are fast approaching. This lip butter balm from Summer Fridays is praised for its luxurious scent and ultra-hydrating properties, and trust us, it’s worth all the hype. Plus, it’s vegan, cruelty-free, comes in recyclable packaging, and is available in six shades.
While you might be tempted to pick up a $5 hand soap on your next Target run, you don’t realize how much this Aesop option will elevate your hand-washing experience until you’ve tried it. Not only does it smell like you’re in a luxurious spa, but it also keeps your hands extra moisturized and soft.
Created to match your mood or shift it, lighting one of these clean-burning candles can elevate any part of your day. Our favorite scent? Interlude, which was created to remove tension or stress, but it was a hard choice, there are eight more incredible scents to choose from.
