There was a time - long, long ago - when I used to wear red lipstick on a daily basis. I used to consider it my signature look, which made snogging my now-husband incredibly tricky - and messy. Now, on the other hand, I never wear it. The upkeep, the panic that I'd catch it on the sleeve of my favourite white shirt and the inevitable fading that makes you look unhinged is just not for me. Which is why in recent years my absolute ride or die lip product has been a tinted lip balm.
And ladies and gentleman, let me tell you that the tinted lip balm game just got a chic upgrade. Victoria Beckham, purveyor of some bloody good beauty products (have you smelt her fragrances? Did you try her brow gel? No? I urge you to rectify that immediately) has just dropped her very own Posh Balms and they are fantastic.
