MAKE UP | glo-minerals Lipstick in Coral


Over the past three weeks, if you've seen me out and about during the daytime then you'll have seen me sporting the glo-minerals lipstick in Coral.* Established in 2002, glo-minerals is a brand that use only pure pharmaceutical grade minerals and anti-oxidants chosen by dermatologists, making the brand paraben, dye and perfume free. The lipstick combines great colour with a wonderful formula that nourishes and protects the lips. Vitamins A, C and E ensure that the lips stay moisturised throughout the day and the added UV protection means that you can wear the lipstick with confidence knowing that you're protected against the sun.

The colour wasn't what I was expecting at all. It's a muted down nude-coral with lots of shimmer that luckily, isn't too overpowering. I expected a vibrant coral which is something that I struggle to pull off, however this one is beautiful. It's perfect for the daytime or paired with a smokey eye and really pulls the entire look together. Despite the lipstick itself being moisturising, it stays on the lips for a good couple of hours before wearing away. I do find that the lipstick is quite hard to apply - possibly because of the shimmer - but the extra few minutes of effort pay off as the colour is stunning and very wearable.

You can buy this lipstick (and many other shades) here for £15.00. If pigmentation isn't your thing then glo-minerals also have a Sheer Lipstick on offer which you can view here.

Have you tried anything from glo-minerals before?
