As a huge Buxom and of course Raptors fan - We The North - I was super excited when Buxom invited me to watch the Toronto Raptors vs. Phoenix Suns game in the opponent's home town, to celebrate the Buxom x Raptors partnership of the lipstick "Raptors Red". Both the international beauty brand Buxom and the Toronto Raptors have created a long term partnership which continuously highlights females in sport, females supporting sports, and keeping the fun in makeup and physical activity. The lighthearted nature of Buxom really compliments the fun and fearless Raptors and also brings in an element of femininity for girls cheering on or attending the games.
Phoenix had already been high on my travel list, thus even more exciting to be visiting for a basketball game while exploring a bit of Phoenix and Scottsdale during our down time. The moment I arrived, I spotted palm trees and my heart melted. Anyone coming from Canada in March can relate - for all others who can't relate, lucky you!
The Buxom and Raptors collaboration celebrates female sportsmanship and female fans of the famous Toronto Basketball team, The Raptors. Buxom is well-know for their plumping lip products among other amazing beauty products. The "Raptors Red" lippie, as the name already gives away is a beautiful statement red, coordinating with the raptors color. The Full Force Plumping Lipstick visibly smooths and fills lips, while there is a lip conditioning effect with active ingredients like avocado oil, jojoba esters and vitamin E condition. Overall, its a gorgeous shade, whether you are into basketball or not! Available here.

Without much more detail, I think us cheering and touching up our lipstick multiple times worked, as the Raptors won 123 to 114! Mission complete!
Ready for the game, dressed in Raptors gear (styled my way) and rocking the beautiful Buxom "Raptors Red", we head to the area to watch the warm up court side. The game finally starts and it is intense to say the least. The first quarter of the game did not look too good but we knew a comeback would come soon.
