Green People are determined to encourage consumers to make positive changes to their daily skincare, and have made it their mission to make skincare accessible to all – enter the new mini travel-friendly starter packs.

The Sensitive Skin Starter Pack (£18.50), which features a scent-free cleanser and makeup remover (30ml), scent-free light day moisturiser (30ml), and a scent-free anti-aging 24 hour cream (10ml), is designed with picky skin in mind.

Their products are paraben- and cruelty-free, and are enriched with natural ingredients designed to be kind to skin. The Melange Lipsticks (£17) in particular are attention grabbing – swirls of colour marbled together – and are available in four shades. For hydrated, glossy pouts, reach for their 3D Volume Lip Gloss, which contains natural plumping ingredients to make lips appear fuller, and moisturises whilst imparting an iridescent shine and intense coverage. Available in seven shades: Lilac in Valley, Lily Beige, Lotus, Magnolia, Peony Beige, Red Rose, and Sakura. Close behind the lipsticks in attention-grabbing-stakes are the vibrant Colour Therapy Nail Polishes (£12.50), which have a gel texture and give an extreme lacquered shine for up to seven days. They contain Citral, a natural active ingredient, to strengthen, harden, seal, and protect the nails, and are available in seventeen shades, from Hot Summer to Onyx Matte. The Extra Volume Mascara (£17) frames your peepers in just a few strokes of its unique wand, reaching the hardest to touch lashes. If you’re just looking to perfect your base, they also have their Waterproof Foundation (£25), which provides natural, buildable coverage, whilst brightening the skin tone and softening imperfections. Available in seven shades, from Natural (10) to Cappuccino (10). Alternatively, use their new CC Cream SPF 20 (£23) for a slightly more everyday look. This lightweight colour correcting cream clarifies and evens skin tone, and is enriched with vitamin C for a brighter, flawless finish. Available in four shades – Natural, Beige, Sand, and Cappuccino. Finish off flawless skin with the Golden Shimmer for Face (£25), which can be used to highlight the face and body. This gel reflects light and enhances your natural radiance for a luminous photo ready finish. Available from delfy.com.

From a pinky-coral to a pop of lilac, the mix of colours means there’s something for everyone. The 18 baked shades can be applied dry or with a wet brush to intensify the colour.

Buxom are getting ready for festival season with their new summer limited edition Metalix Lip Glide (£15) and Holographic Full On Plumping Lip Polish Top Coats (£15). The top coats come in four gorgeous new iridescent shades: Selena (universal opalescent), Ariana (gold sparkle), Mariah (mermaid prism), and Crystal (berry sparkle), and coat lips in a gloss that doesn’t feel gritty on the lips. Free from irritants commonly found in lip plumpers, these glosses hydrate and plump without the irritation. If you’re not looking for a glossy finish, go for one of the new Metalix Lip Glides, which come in shades Ruby Luster, Pink Luminatti, Violet Spark, and Starry Rose. All the shades are intensely sparkling and provide a futuristic foiled effect. Top tip: apply one of the deeper shades first, then follow with one of the lighter shades to highlight the centre of the lip. Both products are limited edition, and whilst the Full On Plumping Lip Polishes are available now from Feel Unique, Debenhams.com, and select Debenhams stores, the Metalix Lip Glides are available exclusively from Cult Beauty.
