Afterglow Organic Lip Love Lipstick Review

We reckon we’ve found lipstick heaven with Afterglow’s latest range of lipsticks made entirely from organic minerals. Say goodbye to dry lips and staining once and for all!

    Afterglow's exciting range of lipsticks

There’s a new and exciting brand of lipstick on the market... and one that promises to keep nasty, irritating ingredients such as synthetic preservatives well away from your lips. I think sometimes we forget just what we are putting on our lips (and ultimately into our bloodstream) and sacrifice quality for cheap products... because they are cheap!

Well, if you are conscious about toxic synthetics running around your body you need to get your mitts on a stick or two of the Afterglow range (there are 15 colours to choose from), which we recently trailed for ourselves.

The Review:

What was immediately apparent was the feel of the lipstick once on, it didn’t feel as oily as most other lipsticks, more creamy if you like. The second thing that is most noticeable is that your lips don’t tend to dry up, it’s like adding a creamy moisturiser to your lips. Thirdly, there’s no disgusting perfume taste left in your mouth... result! Finally, removal is incredibly simple and our lips felt... well, refreshed and moist rather than the normal dryness (and staining) so many other lipsticks leave you with.

Sticks retail at a respectable £22 for a 4g stick, but once you’ve tried it for yourself we’re confident you’ll be converted!
