Warm weather make-up calls for bright colours and wearable formulas so we hit the jackpot when we discovered the Yves Rocher Sheer Botanical Lipsticks for this month’s Birchbox. Here, four staffers showcase their favourites for summer:
Marron Glace on Aleks, Marketing Executive.
“While all the girls are wearing brights, I think a nice understated mauve keeps things interesting and unexpected. Plus, the cool-tones brings out my green eyes.”
Rouge Groseille on Rachel, PR & Partnership Manager.
“I’m a red lip girl at heart so snapped up this gorgeous Rouge Groseille shade as soon as it hit the shop. It smells delicious, thanks to the fruity lipstick’s cherry oil, which not only smells delicious, it’s rich in omega 6 and 9 which nourishes and protects. Love it!”
Corail Doux on Victoria, Graphic Designer.
“I love my bright shades, so this punchy coral with light-reflecting shimmer is right up my street. The sheer, moisturising formula is perfect for summer as it’s less intense and won’t dry my lips out like matte formulas often do. I can just throw it on and head out the door!”
Litchi on Kirsty, Social Media Executive.
“I chose the shade Litchi, a pretty pinky-nude that’s one of those ‘your lips but better’ shades. The neutral shade is perfect for work and for evenings out – I’ve been pairing it with a smoky eye.”
Let us know your favourite shade from the collection in the comments below – and don’t forget you can enjoy free shipping on ALL Yves Rocher products until the end of the month!
