Lippy Girl Vegocentric Lipsticks

We're always thrilled to find new beauty products that make us look and feel great, and here at The Amazing Blog nothing helps to uplift our spirits more than applying a little bit of lippy!  Today one of our latest lipstick discovery is from the eco-friendly brand the Vegocentric Lipsticks from Lippy Girl.


Lippy Girl is a Canadian-based vegan and organic brand founded by Darcey Diehl who was determined to show the world that you can make high-quality lipsticks without chemicals, animal products or animal testing. Each lipstick is incredibly pigmented and creamy and the best part is that they seriously last all day. In 13 beautiful shades, so you are sure to find one that suits you; whether you are looking for an every day neutral, a staple red, or a daring purple. We were sent a shade cheekily named Son of a Brick: a matte orange-red shade that is perfect to keep in your bag for taking you from a day to night look.


The key ingredient used in every Vegocentric Lipstick is organic shea butter, which makes each application go on smoothly with a creamy matte finish that won’t leave your lips feeling dry. The lipsticks are also formulated with organic castor seed oil, jojoba seed oil, and carnauba wax with natural mineral pigments that will make all your looks pop.  We particularly like that they are affordable, have 100% recyclable aluminium tubes and no bees products or polybutene/petroleum. The Vegocentric Lipsticks from Lippy Girl are available here through Botanical Brands for £12.50.

 

Baxter of California’s Clay Effect Style Spray

Baxter of California are justly proud of their extensive range of men’s grooming products, and their Clay Effect Style Spray is a great example of their unpretentious but effective line in both hair and skin care. The Styling Spray has the essence of all that is California, with a subtle scent and whilst this spray seems quite light in itself, it actually packs quite the punch in it’s hold - trust us, we have ruffled and tousled The Amazing Blog’s resident male bouffant to test it thoroughly.

With extract of both green tea and bamboo leaf, mixed with jojoba oil, providing nutrients and vitamins for every hair type it is a heady mix - every pun intended. It can be used first thing in the morning or throughout the day to pep up the style at any point. It even provides humidity resistance and heat-styling protection… what’s not to love? Baxters of California is available through the UK distributor here for £27. You can also check out the full hair and skincare range on the US website baxterofcalifornia.com.
