It’s cherry season in Ontario! Celebrate by cherry-picking some beauty products inspired by the succulent summer fruit.
Lips
Be like Sally Cinnamon and taste like Cherryade all day long with the help of Korres’ Cherry Full Colour Gloss. This paraben-free lipgloss is enriched with sweet and bitter cherry oils and comes in a variety of rosy hues. Available at Sephora ($20).
A lot of women are intimidated by true cherry-red lipstick. That’s why we love Maybelline’s Superstay lipcolour in Cherry. It’s more inspired by chocolate-dipped cherries than maraschinos, so it’s flattering on most skin tones, and it can be worn day or night for a sophisticated look. Plus, the formula goes on super smooth and lasts for up to 16 hours. See? Wearing red lipstick really can be as easy as (cherry) pie. Available at Shopper’s Drug Mart ($12.49).
Body
The Body Shop’s Wild Cherry bath and body line features a wide variety of products. The body scrub is enriched with wild cherry and Brazil nut oils to moisturize, while kiwi seeds and crushed walnut shells provide the exfoliation.
Wild Cherry shower gel and puree body lotion are a sweet-smelling combination and layering the products leaves a light, lingering scent; a great alternative to wearing strong perfumes in the summer (don’t). Body scrub ($20); puree body lotion ($16); shower gel ($13). Available at The Body Shop.
Nails
A pretty, shimmering polish that is the perfect shade of red for the dog days of summer. Revlon’s Cherry Crush is seductive, sophisticated and works just as well at the office as it does at a night on the town. Long-lasting formula. Available at Shopper’s Drug Mart ($6.49).
