It’s time to banish those ruby red and dark plum colours you were wearing in winter and embrace the new slew of lipsticks gracing the makeup market. Peach, coral and pale pink are all in order; certain to blend with the beautiful blossom set to be covering the trees in the near future.
With vegan brands such as Axiology and natural ingredients from Nizz, we’ve got the looks to take you right through to summer.
1. Axiology in Vibration
A vegan brand, this lipstick is made up of various organic oils including avocado, coconut and sweet orange. This russet sheen is the colour of blood oranges (which are currently in season), making it a great one to wear both day and night.

2. Nizz in Mocha Nude
Nizz uses all natural, halal ingredients, making it a great brand for the conscientious. Although a nude, the Mocha is a slightly darker shade which would offset tanned skin beautifully. This colour wouldn’t look out of place at work or a casual supper.

3. Dolce & Gabbana Passion Duo Gloss Fusion in Incognito
The creamy colour of this D & G will enrich and moisturise whilst the inner layer adds a touch of gloss for extra glamour. This punchy orange-red works well with bright blue denim and crisp, white shirts, making it a go-to colour for weekend wearing.

4. Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips in Electric Poppy
Hot pink is always in fashion for the fun-loving, which makes this Electric Poppy lip colour a must. Volumising 3D pigments will plump your lips, making them really pop. The best thing about it, though, is that it suits every hair and skin colour; however, it looks truly stunning on red heads and dark skin.

5. MAC Lipstick in Politely Pink
Beautifully pale, this shade is a great nude option for spring; brightening the complexion and complementing a pink blush perfectly. It’s really long lasting and will survive even after eating, so can be relied upon when slicked on first thing in the morning or before a hot date.

6. RIMMEL Moisutre Renew Sheer & Shine in Better and Brighter
A great one to suit any budget, the RIMMEL has a sheen to it but isn’t overly glossy. This makes it a perfect day look, or if teamed with a shell pink shimmer, is great for partying on those late spring/ early summer evenings.
