Get Me A Pocket Protector

There are some definitive loves in my life.

To name a few:

1. My love for office supplies:
Each year when my Dad took us back-to-school supplies shopping at Staples, we'd gleefully throw every shiny new set of pens, markers, calculators, protractors and every other office supply into the cart as we skipped down the aisle. It was better than Christmas. And at Christmas, Santa brings us colourful paperclips, highlighters, post-it notes and a fresh set of pens in our stockings. NO JOKE.

2. My love for lip balms/ glosses /moisturizers:
I will buy any lip product, for every pocket, purse, glove compartment or drawer I can get my hands on. -Swoon- The way they glide, smear, shine, and plump up my lips. MORE I SAY! MORE!

3. My love for Ingenious packaging:
I am a sucker for sexy packaging. You designers make me a consumeristic nightmare.

Enter:
Jean Paul Gaultier's Tout Beau - Sneaky Kiss Natural Lip Balm & Lip Stain Duo, which looks like a pen, but secretly holds a gloss and balm!

Elation... An elation I can only get from office supplies, gloss and clever packaging all at once.

Nice!

My wife is a receptionist and she LOVES Lip Balms! So this will be a great item she can leave on her desk without worrying if people will taint it. Her biggest fears are that people "taint" her balm. Now it will be hidden in her pen!

Thanks for the great early b-day present idea!
