How to get lip colour without using lipstick

For all my girly girls that believe in the power of colour and all things pretty, you know there is no sexier pout than the one with a pop of colour. Summer lips are gorgeous adorned with light bright flirty colours that perfectly compliment that timeless bronze summer look. As lipstick can be rather heavy for summer days, I save mine for special occasions and nights out. For an easy going daily look, I opt for lighter lip colour alternatives.

Lip Crayons:
Call them chubby sticks, lip balm stain or crayons, whatever you call them, you know they look and feel gorgeous, especially combined with a hydrating lip gloss for shine and moisture. Make sure to use them on smooth exfoliated lips for a seamless application.

This lip colour is for the type of girl who wants a lip colour that is not going to budge come sea water or gym time. Lip tints dye the lips and last longer because they are wax free, thus will not transfer and they wear out evenly after a period of time.  It’s really a throwback to the summer days spent in the sun and sucking on Kool-Aid ice lollies. I top my tinted lips with coloured SPF lip balm for shine, nourishment and sun protection.
