A Brush with Fashion

A sneak peak…

The Body Shop has recently launched a new range of cruelty-free make-up, Brush with Fashion. The new line came about from a collaboration with the London College of Fashion. The College is the only college which has put issues of sustainability at the heart of what it does – setting up the Centre for Sustainable Fashion in 2008 to connect industry and education and find transforming solutions that balance ecology, society and culture.

The packaging for the range was designed by London College of Fashion Graduate, Katarina Voloder, who won this opportunity in a competition held by the College together with The Body Shop.

The range includes built-in, animal-free brushes that are designed for speed, precision, and portability. Packed with fair-trade-certified ingredients (the main ingredient across the range is Community Fair Trade marula oil), the lineup of eye shadows, lip glosses, and blushes aren’t the blushing wallflowers of fall and winter. Eyes are daubed in chocolate, apricot, fawn, and pearlized white, pink and silver. Cheeks are streaked with hot pink, lips tinted glossy peach, and lashes swept and volumized in matte black.

I´m loving the colour palette in Boho Beauty (pictured below) (R205)


And for a bit of colour, the taliored cheek tint in hot pink (R95)
