Summer is such a great time to get experimental with your makeup, whether it’s for a beach break, a garden party or a festival. But with the temperature rising, a heavy eye makeup is not very appealing, so add some instant glamour to your look with a pink lipstick, instead. If pink isn’t your go-to for lips, it can be a tricky shade to navigate, so I thought I’d pick out a few of my favourites to get you started.
