One thing that I love when wearing makeup is to have a bold, statement lip colour. My usual go-to shade of lipstick is a classic red but I do love other shades too. If like me, you love a statement lip colour, these organic mineral lipsticks from Odylique should be right up your street! They are 100% natural – 86% organic and are also cruelty-free too. Not only that but they have botanical ingredients that are kind to even the most sensitive of lips.
I chose 5 shades of organic lipsticks from Odylique that are perfect if you want to wear a statement lip colour. Thanks to Odylique I am giving you the chance to win all 5 of these beautiful shades too! Keep reading to find out how to enter.
A Little About Odylique
It started with Margaret. Thirty years ago, Margaret Weeds – Nottingham native, contemporary of one Anita Ruddock, and qualified in herbal medicine and aromatherapy – was suffering with very, very sensitive skin. She wasn’t alone: eczema ran in her family and she and her children were all plagued with sore, dry, itchy patches. It being the late 80s, conventional cosmetics or prescription skincare were the only real option available. These were often packed with petroleum, artificial additives and other skin irritants which simply didn’t suit her allergy-prone skin.

Odylique was one of the first companies to create certified organic cosmetics and formulate the purest cosmetics possible.
Odylique is still family-run and they have a plethora of awards* to their name too, so you can rest assured that your skin is in very good, caring hands!
a Bold Lip to Make A Statement
As I mentioned earlier I love a bold lip as it really makes a statement. I don’t tend to wear nudes as they just don’t seem to suit me very well. When I wear a bold lip I like to wear less on my eyes. So, I will quite often just wear winged eyeliner and mascara. For a night out – does anyone remember nights out? – you could of course wear a smokey eye and these shades would be perfect to compliment it.
Which Shade is Right For You?
#10 Rose Parfait – £18.00
Rose Parfait (#10) is a gorgeous, flattering rose pink, whilst still being colourful and has a slight sheen to it. Perfect shade for Spring!
#12 Raspberry Coulis – £18.00
Raspberry Coulis (#12) is just as it sounds, a berry red. Delicious and cool toned it’s berry perfect!
#15 Praline – £18.00
Praline* (#15) is more of a taupe/nude shade. Despite me saying I don’t wear nudes, I had to include one in my selection because nudes are popular. Plus, this nude still makes quite a statement!
#16 Cherry Tart – £18.00
Cherry Tart* (#16) is a gorgeous red and as true to a red that you can get without carmine or synthetic colour. This colour really pops!
#20 Blackberry Smoothie – £18.00
Blackberry Smoothie* (#20) is a beautiful mauve shade and it’s a shade that wears well in both the day and at night.
Shade Swatches
I swatched all 5 shades of the lipsticks for you, though in hindsight, I probably should have applied them with a brush as they kept catching on the stencil I used. However, it does show the true colour of the shades for you. The ones on the left were taken in natural light. On the right is a photo of them taken using the flash. You can see just how moisturising these lipsticks are under the flash.
