Blooming marvellous lippy from Cargo
It's all coming up roses in the makeup department this year! Cosmetics company Cargo has just launched Plantlove, an eco friendly, ultra-trendy lipstick range that boasts the first biodegradable lipstick tube made from Natureworks PLA - a biodegradable polymer made from corn instead of the usual plastic. And the lipstick itself is all made from good, clean stuff, containing no mineral oils or petroleum, and a botanical formula with shea butter and vitamin E that's kind to lips.
lBut the bit that really made me go 'squee!' is that the outer packaging is made from flower paper encrusted with real wildflower seeds to make your garden (or in my case, dodgy window box) look gorgeous this spring too. I just hope the Cargo are not merely paying lip-service (boom boom) to such an important issue, and that this won't just be a seasonal fad.
