Lauren Luke's lip and cheek stain

Lauren Luke: Lips & cheek: Lauren Luke: Lips & cheek, Body Shop
The Body Shop lip and cheek stain in Rose Pink, £9.50.
Lauren says: Looks an exciting colour, but settles down to an ultra-sheer finish. Watery consistency. Less impressive on cheeks. ★★★

Lauren Luke: Lips & cheek: Lauren Luke: Lips & cheek, For Keeps
The Balm For Keeps lip stain in ­Purple/Brown, £19.
Lauren says: Comes as a compact and contains two lip stains to which you have to add water. Bit of a faff. However, they did stain my lips for hours and the packaging is cute, with a mirror and brush. ★★
