Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, but it's also one of the longest. You'll want your makeup to last all day, particularly your lipstick, when you're saying 'I do' and smiling for the camera, right through to the meal, the speeches and the after party. Brides often worry about gloss being too sticky, matte lipsticks being too drying and flaky, and tinted lip balms not being strong enough or long-lasting. The only answer is a moisturising lipstick with a colour that lasts all day. Luckily, Clinique have heard our prayers and have launched their Kiss the Bride Collection, showcasing four limited edition Long Last Soft Shine Lipsticks in gorgeous wearable shades.
The lipsticks have long-term hydration and long-lasting colour that will stay with you all day without drying out your lips. It boasts up to eight hours of fresh colour resistant to fading, creasing, caking or feathering. The last thing you want on your wedding day is dry, flaking lips, so a moisturising lipstick is an absolute must. Equally, you want your lippy to last, especially if you're opting for a strong colour; there's nothing worse than a bold lip that has faded. Clinique's Kiss the Bride Collection is the perfect answer to blushing brides' lipstick worries, complete with names reminiscent of your big day.
