Even colour suitable for vegetarians from Lush

Wednesday, 16 May 2012 8:11 AM

Think Lush is all bath bombs and fragranced toiletries? Think again! Their range now includes colour supplements, ideal for adding to your skincare routine for a hint of colour in the summer sun. They are all suitable for vegetarians, with 80% approved by the Vegan Society.

For even make-up coverage, try blending one of Lush’s Colour Supplements (£7.95) with your moisturiser to help prevent skin drying out. Ideal for this time of year, when cold weather can leave skin a little flaky, they will provide professional looking coverage without absorbing too many of your natural oils. You can also use them as a concealer to hide any blemishes, so ideal for hiding dark circles under eyes. But go one shade lighter than your foundation colour for under the eye.

Our tester said that they loved the fact that it is handmade with fresh ingredients and gives a good hint of colour to skin. It's light coverage, so better for people with clearer skin, and the application can be a little messy if you don't use a make-up sponge.
