Nail Polish Remover
GOLD Benecos Nail Polish Remover, £5.95, pravera.co.uk
“The smell was much more pleasant than my usual nail polish remover. I loved that it was natural without acetone or lurid blue colourings in. It worked very well, removing my nail polish quickly and easily. I didn’t need to use much for the product to be effective. I removed my nail polish using washable make-up remover pads and was able to rinse the product out easily. I will keep a separate pad for this purpose. I love that the product was organic and vegan friendly too.” Katy C
Concealer
GOLD Mineral Concealer Green Corrector, £7.99, honeypieminerals.com
“This was a lovely little product - so quick and easy to apply. I just brushed a small amount on red areas of my face and blemishes and applied my usual foundation on top. It provided a much more even finish than using my foundation alone and I really liked the results. I often get spots and red blotches and, to be fair, my foundation alone does a pretty good job of covering it up yet having used this product I’ve found it to be the product I didn’t realise I was missing but will definitely be getting again. The packaging is 100% recyclable, it’s vegan, cruelty free, free from lots of nasties and even offers natural protection against UV light. I’ve since had a browse at the brand’s other products and, just like the green-corrector, the prices are very affordable. Win-win all round.” Victoria J

Lip balm
GOLD Cocoa & Hempseed Lip Balm - Chocolicious, $15.50 NZD, yesorganics.nz
“The product smells yummy as it really smells of chocolate. It applies perfectly. Just the right amount comes off the stick. It makes my lips feel soft and has soothed them when they feel chapped so it is a functional product.” Maxine M
SILVER Bee Happy Lip Balm Gift Pack, £14.50, nevesbees.co.uk
BRONZE Original Nipple Balm for Dry Skin, Luscious Lips & Glossy Bits, £12, drlipp.com
Lipstick
GOLD Wild Fire Lipstick, $33 NZD, livingnature.com
“This Living Nature lipstick goes on the lips quite easily. It has semi-matte finish. It felt bit dry on my lips but the colour (wild fire) was stunning; classic red! Whilst it did fade on my lips it still left my lips slightly tinted so it was not bad thing. I received lovely compliments how nice I looked with this lipstick on!” Laura L
SILVER Certified Organic Lux Lipstick, £29.75, zuiiorganic.com
BRONZE Triple Luxe Long Lasting Naturally Moist Lipstick, £24, janeiredale.co.uk
Lipgloss
GOLD Stellar Balm, £10, balanceme.co.uk
“This lipbalm can be used on lips, dry skin and cuticles. It is quite firm but smells really lovely of aromatherapy (patchouli and neroli) and feels thick and long lasting on your lips. It isn’t sticky. It does have bees wax in it so is not appropriate for vegans.” Amy W
