Venetia Scott
Today marks the first day we are allowed to kiss (and hug) again since Covid took hold in the UK – meaning it’s high time we reacquainted ourselves with lipstick. Given how often our lips are covered by protective face masks these days, they now hold the same kind of mystery once reserved only for erogenous zones – from the bust to the bum. And there is really nothing more enticing than a well-accentuated lip.
It’s no wonder that lipstick sales at John Lewis have increased by 178 per cent in the last month – this unassuming make-up product is excellent at boosting both mood and confidence. There are an array of buttery-soft new lip products available, too, with formulas to suit every skin tone, mood and inclination. Plus, you can expect them to stay put.
