This week, US Market Research firm The NPD Group, Inc, released their latest US Beauty Industry Report, which listed the cosmetic sector in the US as currently being worth a staggering $185.2 million.
The star of the show and seemingly recession proof are lipstick and lip product sales. They've risen by a whooping 7%.
Yes, we may all be tightening our belts when it comes to eating out and buying clothes, but when it comes to those finishing touches - or 'non-negotiable extras' (as I like to call them), there can be no compromise !
No, I don't mean just shoes and handbags but make-up. In particular, 'Pouts with the Pow Factor ! 'After the kick-arse popularity of MAC's Wonder Woman make-up line, launched February this year, there is no way you can ignore the superheroine in you and not lasso yourself a hot new lipstick.
Neon colours are one of the hottest trends this season and if you are too frightened to wear it on your body, why not wear it on your nails or lips.
Orange is one of those super sexy colours, that looks incredible on dark skin, but can also add a lreal pep to paler skin. For your nails, I love Nail Inc 's Porchester Place £11.00 (grab it while you can though, because it's part of their summer limited edition range)! Or,why not try out No 7's Stay Perfect nail polish and paint your nails in their gorgeous Golden Palm shade.
On your lips, unleash the dangerous diva in you, by slicking on L'oreal's new Paris Glam Shine Fresh lipgloss in Tangerine £8.99 .
If you are feeling really brave, then high-kick your way towards Dior's Addict Lipstick, in Fire £22.00 - a little pricey I know, but you are getting a super, rich colour density lipstick with excellent staying power.
Just what every Wonder Woman needs !
