Getting Lippy


By Ellie Balfe
23rd May 2014

Cheryl Cole?s first limited edition Color Riche lipstick ?Red Passion? in association with The Cheryl Cole Foundation in aid of The Prince?s Trust, with ?1 from every sale being donated to the foundation. ?I love wearing lipstick as it is makes me feel glamorous whatever the occasion. I chose this iconic luxurious, red shade as it is the perfect dramatic accessory. I am so thrilled the funds raised from my L?Or?al Paris lipstick can make a difference to people?s lives through my foundation with The Prince's Trust. When selecting the shade I chose one I felt would flatter most hair and skin types, and is the red that everyone wants in their make-up bag. I will be wearing my L?Or?al Paris Color Riche ?Red Passion? lipstick with minimal make-up and a touch of mascara to compliment the intense colour.? Cheryl Cole The campaign image was shot by Rankin for L?Or?al Paris. The Cheryl Cole Foundation The Cheryl Cole Foundation, which launched in April, supports The Trust?s work with young people in the North East, who have struggled at school, been unemployed for a long time and have been in trouble with the law or who are in or leaving care. More than three in four young people supported by The Trust move into jobs, education or training. New Cheryl Cole Limited Edition Color Riche Lipstick in Red Passion RRP: ?8.16
