From citrus-bright pops of color to tangy aromas that will wake up your senses, I picked out the best zesty beauty buys.
LIP TEASE
Give your pout a seasonal shake-up. ‘A mandarin mouth is a sure-fire way to liven up your look.’ Matte orange lips- as seen on the catwalk at Mary Katrantzou- are beautiful against dark or tanned skin.
ACID TEST
Lets be honest: lemon isn’t a shade most of us reach for when it comes to nails. But its easier to wear than you might think. Yellow adds a pop of bright, summery colour to a plainer outfit, but varnishes can come out thin and watery. Which is why I love Butter London, that gives a bold, crisp colour.
HERE'S A ZING
Plenty of scientific studies confirm the mood -boosting benefits of citrus-based aromas, from making us feel happier and less stressed to giving us more energy. Latest research now also shows that citrus scents have a stimulating effect on libido while increasing feelings of intimacy, too! Get zingy with it by using Citrus scented Shower Gels.
LEMON AID
Lemon juice is a brilliant foot-smoother. Soak feet in warm water with the juice of half a lemon. Pat dry, then buff away rough skin. For top-to-toe smoothing try lemon body scrub.
