The Nude That Started It All
This year has been the first that I really wanted to start wearing lipstick. I started by checking my favourite organic brands.

Soft, Brown Smokey Eyes and Nude Mauve Lips – Featuring Juice Beauty

I’ve tried some of their skincare years ago, but it wasn’t until they launched this line that I really took notice. It’s taken me this long to finally have them in my hands. The…
