Korres Tinted Moisturiser (£18) pictured left
OK, so Caroline has already featured this fab tinted moisturiser in her 'must haves' for the month - but we couldn't resist singing its praises again. Available in three shades, with SPF 30 and watermelon to prevent photo-aging and irritation, it's got great coverage and smells lovely. Only £18 from Korres.
Lancome Juicy Tubes World Tour lipglosses (£13.50) pictured left
Lancome has the perfect limited-edition product for your summer handbag - juicy tubes lipglosses in new colour ways, dressed up by Glasgow designer Christopher Kane.
"Juicy Tubes are the original and best;" says Lancome consultant Joanne. "And Lancome has embraced the fashion world with this Christopher Kane collaboration. The World Tour concept takes some of the hottest style cities, such as Paris, New York, Tokoyo and Rio, and adds some completely new colours and flavours - including cinnamon, peach, banana and rose.
"Peach is my current favourite. Both the scent and the shiny shade are spot on for long sunny days! And the eight beautifully designed tubes by Christopher Kane make these ideal for all the fashionista's out there."
Available at John Lewis.
Special offer - Buy any two Lancome make-up products and recive an exclusive, limited edition Christopher Kane makeup bag featuring his trademark neon shades. Or, for more classic juicy tubes colours, a gift set featuring 4 half-size tubes in summer shades is available for £15. Both subject to availability and conditions - ask in store for details.

Korres' Mango butter lipstick (£15) pictured left
What better way to get your lips in tip top condition after the winter than by a boost of moisture with your colour? Korres' Mango Butter lipstick has a SPF10 protection and contains mango butter to moisturise and heal chapped or dry lips. Mango butter melts at body temperature and is easily absorbed by your lips, leaving them lush and shiny. Gorgeous.
The lipsticks are available in a range of rich, intense colours with a brilliant high shine. And as you'd expect from Korres you get the conscience with the glam - the lipsticks are dermatologically tested, and free from mineral oil, silicone, propylene glycol and ethanolamine.
Clarins' Super Restorative Tinted Cream (£38) pictured left
Spring's finally here, which means shrugging off dull winter skin and trying to get a bit of glow. Tinted moisturisers are ideal, as they give a bit of colour to mask minor imperfections, but aren't as drying or aging as some heavy foundations can be.
And, just in time, Clarin's have just launched their new Super Restorative Tinted Cream (£38), available at John Lewis. It has SPF20 protection and is available in 5 shades - ideal for the move from Glasgow peelywally to sunkissed goddess. It's got natural ingrediants to give you a bit of a lift, and beauty-enhancing pigments to minimise signs of fatigue and wrinkles.
Clarin's consultant Audrey adds: "This is the first time Clarin's has offered a tinted moisturiser with added sun protection, and it has anti-ageing properties too - which is just fantastic!"
