Beauty Bible Loves... ILIA Overglaze Hydrating Lip Gloss

This had us at ‘hello’ – because honestly, ILIA haven’t put a foot wrong in the last year, when it comes to beauty launches. We’re still crazy for the Lip Sketch Hydrating Crayon, which we wrote about here – and lots of other ILIA loveliness has made the leap straight into our make-up bags, including a recent sell-out palette which we grabbed while we still could.

We fully expect to build a wardrobe of shades in this, meanwhile – a high-shine-but-not-sticky formula, gorgeous as a sheer gloss on lips or as a finishing touch to add extra va-va-voom to the intense colour of those crayons.

Those shades are all super-wearable – ‘ceramic-inspired’, we’re told, which is an allusion to that ‘glaze’ in the name.

So… New Year, new lipstick – just the fillip we need, post-Christmas, frankly.
