The 10 brands injecting a splash of colour

The cosmetic world is interwoven with colour, but there are some brands that particularly excel at providing hues. Below, BD looks at the products delivering an injection of colour:

Clinique
Acquiring a cult-like following for good reason, CLINIQUE’s Chubby Stick works rather like a softly-hued balm. The lip product provides a sheer hint of colour via a blend of nourishing ingredients that include shea butter, mango seed butter and jojoba seed oil.

Colour by TBN
Neon is not for the faint of heart. One brand unabashedly dedicated to neon is Colour by TBN - the brand’s nail collection features only the boldest of shades for its nine-part line featuring a quick-drying formula.

Envy Wraps
​Adorning nails with any and every kind of pattern imaginable is Elegant Touch. The brand’s Envy Wraps decorate nails with statement-making water-resistant coverings that don’t damage the natural nail in the process.

Fudge Urban
Fudge Urban caters to those after vibrant hair colour without the dedication of a dye job. Hair Art is a spray-in formula that offers high pigment hues for locks (in colours that include violet and pink) that are easy to wash out.

Max Factor Colour Colour Elixir Giant Pen Stick
Max Factor’s Pen Stick is a cosmetics product that is bold in both size and shade. The large lip pencil is available in a pigment-rich colour palette, providing strong pouts in a formula that glides on.

Innoxa
Convenient multi-purpose sticks are all the rage in the beauty industry. Innoxa’s offering provides subtle colour to both lips and cheeks with a nourishing formula designed around kernel oil, vitamins A, E and F.

Schwarzkopf
A giant of the hair care sector, Schwarzkopf’s LIVE Colour is a go-to for many when it comes to semi-permanent colour. The brand’s blossoming range of pastel-hued hair dyes (with shades like Baby Blue and Cotton Candy Pink) are making it the first port of call for fans of rainbow locks.

blinc
blinc Mascara is tackling the growing demand for experimental mascara with coloured variations on the traditional black. The water-resistant, non-irritating product is available in six shades that range from Dark Purple to Dark Green.

Nutrimetics
Sometimes a bit of bronzer (and highlighter) is all that’s necessary to add a pop of healthy colour to the skin. Nutrimetics’ Bronze & Glow Powder warms up any complexion with a formula containing light-reflecting minerals for long-lasting luminosity.

KEVIN.MURPHY
A coloured shadow for the hair, KEVIN.MURPHY’s COLOR.BUG is a beloved entry offering into vibrant locks. The formula can be wiped on and off instantly and is available in three bright shades of pink, orange and purple.
