Who says pretty can’t pack a punch? This time of year brings forth a multitude of gorgeous pastels in nature and we love to see it reflected in the newest beauty products from brands both mega and niche. Here we pick a few of our blooming favourites in the softest colours, from minty greens, to chalky lilacs, through to sherbet lemons and candy pinks. Just a pretty face? Don’t you believe it…
