You know summer is just around the corner, when your local green grocer is stocked full berry goodness. In this case, I’ve picked some raspberries and strawberries. I couldn’t find snozberries, I believe Willy Wonka had us all fooled, they don’t exist.
By now, you probably all realise that I’m going to tell you about the health benefits of berries and the antioxidants they contain. But, because this is a) common knowledge and b) I don’t want to bore you. I’ve found a much better and more interesting way to utilise these colours in your make-up kit. Especially since spring has motivated me to pull out the bright fuchsias, purples and warm pinks from my lipstick case. Enjoy!

The Australis. Sally Hansen and M.A.C lip colours are creamy, richly pigmented and so smooth to apply. I’d have to say that the brands I’ve just mentioned are my personal favourite. But each to their own.
Disclaimer: I have not been sent these products to review and promote. They’ve been in my kit for some time and I have enjoyed them and wanted to showcase a range of summer colours for your pout.
