Fab Find of the Week: delilah Lip Saviour Colour Enhancing Lip Oil

Whoosh! That’s the sound effect of this going straight into our handbags.

Last week we caught up with lovely Rupert Kingston from delilah, who had this new product to show us, and it was honestly love at first swipe.

First reason to love delilah Lip Saviour Colour Enhancing Lip Oil: the applicator. Instead of a doe-foot wand, this is a very clever slim cooling tip made of ultra-smooth metal (well, it feels like metal), which glides over the lips without dosing over-generously, and makes it easy to keep it within the lip-line. (See it in close-up, below.)

Second reason to love it: the colour-adjusting shade, which reacts with the pH levels of the lip skin to give a ‘personalised’ shade – just a tiny bit deeper than your natural shade, rather than a massive shift, but very prettifying.

Third reason to love it: the lip-loving ingredients, not all of them natural but featuring jojoba, castor and argan oil in the blend.

Fourth reason to love it: this stays put much, MUCH longer than your average lip oil.

Smiles, all round.
