Product watch: Makeup releases

Another year, another deluge of makeup releases. Rachel Marie Walsh rounds up the best new cosmetics of 2013.

Clinique Jumbo Vitamin C Antioxidant Smoothie Lip Colour, €20.50 

This lipstick-gloss hybrid pen has a lot to offer. The splay-proof bristles impart a creamy, non-sticky colour with medium coverage. Better still, the formula contains proven antioxidants and emollients worthy of a nourishing balm. These ingredients are kept stable by the twist-click tube, which was launched this year in a generous jumbo size. This gloss is a broad-spectrum SPF shy of perfection.
