Korres Lipstick.

Today's weather has been wet, cold and in general, plain miserable. On days like these, it's really important I have products that help keep my dry skin moisturised. This also includes having good make-up that won't make me look like I've slathered on a whole heap of cream underneath my foundation (resulting in that horrid 'oily' mess look). 

One of my absolute favourite pieces of make-up that I can always rely on, no matter how drying the temperature is, would be my amazing Korres Mango Butter Lipstick.

I own Shade 12 - Frost Pink, which gives off a lovely natural pale pink shimmer. When I first bought it, I was absolutely amazed at how well it hydrated my lips, especially when working 12 hour flights (for those who travel a lot, you know how planes can make you feel like a shrivelled raisin). The next time I visited the store, I asked the lady more about this particular product and she highlighted the addition of mango butter which is a key ingredient in this lipstick - and the reason why after even one application, my lips instantly felt smoother and softer.  

To add the cherry on top, for those not familiar with the brand - Korres is a company that pride themselves on using natural ingredients and formulae to produce certified organic skin-care, body-care and makeup. 

The idea of no parabens, sulfates, petrochemicals and phthalates (what the heck are they?) lurking in at least one of my lipsticks was enough to keep me as a loyal customer. There is a whole range of beautiful colours to choose from, so why not start by checking a few out at: http://www.sephora.com/mango-butter-lipstick-spf-10-P199108

Ps, how well does the lipstick match my Mink Pink blouse? (I should mention that it had rubbed off a little in the photo as I had just eaten). Oh and have I mentioned I waved my blonde (also dry) locks goodbye and welcomed the sight of brunette strands once again? Change is certainly refreshing! xx
