We’ve been super busy here at Lily Lolo HQ, we’re working hard behind the scenes on making our packaging more sustainable, packing all your orders and recently we got to take a trip to San Francisco to see visit one of our fave US stockists Credo Beauty. Credo are dedicated to bringing the very best in clean beauty products to the US market and we couldn’t love their ethos any more! We were there to take part in their first ever annual Clean Beauty Summit. Here’s what Vikki (Company Founder) and Amy (Marketing) got up to in the Californian city….

A bright and early start to make it down to London ready for the 11 hour flight, the traffic was so bad as we neared Heathrow and it was touch and go for check in!

After some much needed beauty sleep we woke up early, like 2am early, ready for a busy day of meetings ahead!

We explored the central Union Square area which boasts an impressive skyline and lots of shops before heading across town to meet our US distributor for a catch-up, then it was onto Credo to meet their team!

Amy squinting in the sunshine outside of Credo’s flagship store located on Filmore Street and the gorgeous Lily Lolo display inside the store.

Next stop Credo’s head office to meet Annie, Dawn and the team to talk about some exciting plans for 2019. It was so great to meet them all after years of emails and they gave us such a warm welcome.

Credo’s head offices located in the gorgeous Pacific Heights area of San Francisco

Day 2: The day of the Clean Beauty Summit and a caffeine fuelled early morning start over at The Battery Hotel ready for Vikki to have some photos taken.

We found some free time to see more of San Francisco’s tourist hotspots, here’s Vikki nailing that iconic Golden Gate Bridge shot!

Mrs Doubtfire’s house, located on 2640 Steiner Street was high on our must-see list so we stopped off there for a quick photo before heading back to the Credo Clean Beauty Summit.

Back at The Battery, these gorgeous rooftop views made the perfect backdrop for Credo’s brand founders’ video which will launch on International Women’s Day to celebrate female empowerment, we can’t wait to share the final cut!

With the video wrapped it was onto Next World to hear from Credo’s CEO Dawn Dobras and Co-Founder & COO Annie Jackson about what’s in store for Credo in 2019. The event finished over at The Batch for some much needed cocktails and a clean beauty panel.

We’d like to say a huge thanks to Credo for organising the event, it was an honour being one of the 200+ attendees at the summit. It was fantastic connecting with all the dreamers, doers, disruptors and drivers of Credo’s stocked brands! See you next year San Francisco!

Love Vikki & Amy xx

Fans of our original mascara, we have some huge news for you. Discover new Big Lash Mascara and create the fullest, longest, biggest lashes ever.

Oh yeah, that’s right, we’ve done the impossible and created a mascara that tops even our bestselling, cult favourite. We’ve tested formula after formula and tried way too many brushes, but after a few years of  creating and tweaking, we’ve really gone and done it. Big Lash Mascara really does have it all, with a cutting-edge formulation that combines ultimate volume and length, all-day wear and super-smart ingredients.

NEXT-LEVEL APPLICATION

Inside the super-chic, matte-black tube, the unique hourglass application wand breaks the mould. It’s all down to the voluptuous curves of the brush, which ensure unbeatable coverage, coating every last lash for incredible separation and seriously big results. For epic-looking lashes, apply mascara slowly from root to tip, gently wiggling the brush as you go. Allow to dry and repeat for high drama and volume.

NATURAL INGREDIENTS, AMPLIFIED

But the really big news? Not only is the effect so much better than faux, the formulation is vegan friendly, made using natural ingredients and without any potentially harmful chemicals. That means no carbon black and DEA, no parabens, synthetic perfumes or anything else that is unnecessary and unsafe.

We cannot wait to hear what you think of our new mascara, so make sure to comment below and let us know!

 You asked for them, and now they’re finally here! Introducing our incredible Pressed Correctors, created to work wonders on those skin issues we can all experience but would rather not show.

Available in two undetectable shades for targeted complexion correction, they’re a fantastic, skin-transforming extra step for clients who suffer from redness or permanent under-eye circles. And, most important of all, the formulation is gentle and lightweight, won’t clog pores or irritate delicate skin. Plus, of course, they work beautifully under our Mineral Foundation.

So which colour should you use?

Green-hued Pistachio neutralises redness, from rosacea to blemishes and acne while letting the skin breathe and heal. Apply before foundation, gently buffing onto the skin with a Baby Buki for larger areas, or a Concealer Brush for smaller areas. The yellow pigment in Lemon Drop makes eyes pop, concealing dark circles for a fresher, brighter look. To apply, gently buff into the under eye area with a Concealer Brush before applying foundation. try not to drag the delicate skin around the eye, soft circular motions work best. Both shades are infused with skin-loving ingredients too. Jojoba seed oil has antibacterial benefits, making it ideal for oilier skin types, plus zinc calms irritated skin. Sunflower seed oil is rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids, helping protect and smooth for a healthier-looking complexion every day.

Which one will you be grabbing first?

Last month Lily Lolo turned 11 years old, but our journey this far wouldn’t have been possible without all of our lovely stockists, and we thought its about time to turn the spotlight onto them. This week we have asked some questions to Celia and Estefania from BioC’est in Marbella to get to know them a bit better!

WHO ARE BIOC’EST ?

Hi there! We are 2 good friends from uni that wanted to do something different and we believed we could make a great team together! 50% of the company is made of Estefanía, Pharmacist, from Marbella, dog lover,  Chihuahua owner, passionate and the impulsive part of the team.The other 50% is made of Celia, Pharmacist as well, from Madrid, more of a human than pets lover, optimistic and the patience side of the two of us! We opened our shop just over a year ago with the excitment of bringing both a combination of nature and style to any natural beauty lover out there, and the new ones that we’ve made along the way!As you can have guessed from this little introduction about us, the name comes from Bio-Ce (Celia)-est (Estefanía) so all together and with a little bit of imagination make BioC’est, which sounds good in any language!

DESCRIBE THE STYLE OF YOUR STORE

When we started picturing the store in our heads we imagined this white, clean, stylish and minimalist beauty concept store in which clients could come in and take their time to try our products and fall in love with aromas and textures and just to have been able to make it possible is like a dream come true!

WHAT DOES YOUR AVERAGE DAY CONSIST OF?

The best part of this job is that every day is just different! We love every part of it! From finding and solving the needs of our clients, to searching for new brands…We think that when you put your heart and you not only like but love what you do everyday becomes a new adventure!

WHAT WOULD BE YOUR FAVOURITE MAKE UP STYLE TO CREATE?

We truly believe that each of us have our own different beauty, so our favourite look would be that one in which you feel confident and happy with, we try to create very natural looks, enhancing the natural beauty of every woman and running away from this artificial stereotyped over-make up ones that in our opinion only hides who we are…but of course that’s only our opinion! One of the reasons we like Lily Lolo so much is that it allows us to do it very easily!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE LILY LOLO PRODUCT TO USE?

Mmm that’s a tricky question! It’s very hard just to pick one! So we are going to pick one each! Estefanía “I really love the concept of the brand, but if I have to choose one, the best for me is my “always-together” black eye pencil, an intense and soft basic, just love it! Celia “I have a complete set of Lily Lolo’s products but my favourites are the mineral foundations. They are so easy to apply and they blend perfectly in the skin with my “SUPER KABUKI” and the fact that they have SPF15 is my favourite part, you always get sunny days in Spain!

 BEST THING ABOUT COMING TO WORK?

The best part is watching our BioC’est community growing everyday and seeing the clients happy when we assist them in the process of finding the best personalised beauty routine and looks for them!

DO YOU HAVE A MAKE UP LOOK FROM YOUR TEENS THAT YOU LOOK BACK AND REGRET?

Oh yes! Who doesn’t?! Haha We were actually going to send you a picture so you could have some entertainment but at the click moment it was way too embarrassing!

 Thank you Celia and Estefania, we love the minimal style of  BioC’est, and we are very proud to be stocked in such a beautiful store. We’ll be featuring more of our fabulous stockists in the coming months.

Love Lily Lolo x

We are well and truly into summer now, so it’s time to enhance (or fake) that sun kissed glow. Our new, sun-kissed Bronze Illuminator is the smart girl’s way to fake a hot-off-the-beach holiday glow, or enhance the real thing.

For effortless bronzed beauty, just apply a touch of the super-fine pressed powder to accent the face and décolletage. Plus the chic monochrome compact’s mirror is great for application on the go, and saving vital space in your carry-on! Let’s glow…

How to use it: Simply swirl onto the cheek bones, brow bones, bridge of the nose and anywhere the sun will naturally catch the skin. All it takes is a small amount, and the result is a soft-focus, healthy and beautifully damage-free radiance.

Who needs sunshine when there’s the new Lily Lolo Illuminator in cool Champagne? This is our secret to achieving a super-natural, subtly sun-kissed complexion and is way more flattering and versatile that a full-on tanned look. Great on skin tones from fair right through to dark, it’s one product that no girl should be without this summer. Essential for day, night, and holiday packing.

HOW TO USE IT:

Our first launch of 2016 has just landed and we couldn’t be more excited to share!

We can’t wait to get in the spring beauty mood and fresh, glow-getting skin is the perfect way to update your look in preparation for the change in seasons.

Great skin is the foundation of beautiful makeup, but if your inner glow needs a little help, our new Contour Duo is the perfect way to make the absolute most of what you’ve got.  It’s our secret shortcut to enviable contours and sky-high cheekbones!

Our duo contains a skin-flattering bronzer that makes for effortless contouring and a light-reflecting highlighter which can be used sparingly for a subtle, fresh daytime glow or intensified for a luminous, killer evening look.  No glitter here, just a gorgeous highlight!  Our angled blush brush is the perfect partner for enhancing those cheekbones you never knew you had.

We just love the look that Jane Bradley created on the beautiful Annabel – fresh, subtle and gorgeous.  Here’s how she did it:

First up, let’s sculpt.  Apply the bronzer to the areas of the face that you want to contour, gradually working into the hollows of the cheeks and defining the temples, jaw line and sides of the nose.  Looking into the mirror face-on, blend, blend, blend to smooth any lines or edges.

Now for some glow.  Starting with just a little highlighter, apply to the tops of cheekbones, centre of nose, cupid’s bow, brow bone and anywhere that light naturally catches the skin, build up to achieve the glow you’re after – and you’re done!

Naturally, it’s our usual skin loving formula containing argan oil and marine extract.  It’s fragrance and talc free and vegan friendly – what’s not to love?

Lily Lolo x

Won’t leave the house without our Mineral Makeup? Now you can hold onto that Lily Lolo glow for even longer with our new Makeup Mist. Just spritz on this moisturising formula, infused with Aloe Vera and antioxidant Green Tea Leaf extract, for extra staying power and a flawless, dewy finish. No smudging or settling into fine lines – just great-looking makeup.  Perfect for extra hydration now the chilly weather and drier skin is on it’s way.  What’s more it’s a multi-tasker!

Spritz your face before applying foundation and allow to dry to create an even canvas.

Apply after makeup (but before mascara) for a dewy finish and extra hydration with increased staying power.  A spritz during the day (avoiding that eye area) will freshen and revive makeup.

Dampen your eyeliner or eyeshadow brush and mix with our loose mineral eye shadows to create an eyeliner or a stunning foiled effect.

To apply, shake well then hold the bottle 22 – 24 cm away and mist the face 2–4 times, in an “X” and “T” formation.

The latest makeup must-have is here! We’d love to hear what you think.

A decade ago, we started our journey to creating the high-performance, all-natural mineral makeup we dreamed of but couldn’t find, and today we’re as passionate as ever about making the world of beauty an even more beautiful place.

Our founder Vikki Khan, was so impressed by mineral makeup from the US, that in 2005 she began experimenting with her own creations.

Vikki then started selling the range online, packing and posting orders around her day job. On the first day’s trading in 2005, she took three orders. Today Lily Lolo is sold in 39 countries.

“I began Lily Lolo to bring amazing mineral makeup to women everywhere,” says founder, Vikki Khan. “In our tenth year, we’re still changing the face of beauty with natural products that do what they promise and help you look and feel gorgeous!”

As a busy Mum of two, Vikki is still an integral part of all the areas of the business and particularly enjoys developing new products for our loyal customers.

All the staff at Lily Lolo would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support, we couldn’t have done it without you.

Join us in celebrating by mentioning #ENDURINGBEAUTY #10YEARSOFLILYLOLO on social media.

Here’s to another 10 years, and lots of new exciting products to be launched very soon!

Following on from the success of our pressed products launched last year; we are excited to introduce our new addition to the LL family, Pressed Bronzer.

Our lightweight Pressed Bronzer will instantly give the skin a natural-looking, sun-kissed glow. With soft, buildable colour the three shades will give you the desired level of tan without the need to expose your skin to the sun’s harmful rays.

This mineral rich Pressed Bronzer contains anti-ageing  Argan Oil and Jojoba Oil for added moisturising benefits.

Bronzer should be applied to the areas of your face the sun would naturally hit, forehead, the cheekbones, and down along your jawline to give you a sun kissed radiance. For a more contoured look it can be applied in a 3 shape on either side of the face, blending any edges for a natural finish.

We thought we’d let you in on the secret of how our model Ana got this sun-kissed glow.

Eyes – Apply Moonlight Mineral Eye Shadow with a wet brush as the main base to the eyelid and blend into the socket line. Bronze sparkle can be applied to the crease and blended together.

Taking inspiration from the natural beauty make-up trends showcased on the S/S 15 catwalks, the new need-it-now collection is comprised of toned down burnt orange hues, beautiful beige’s and nudes that will flatter and compliment any skin tone.

Perfect for the spring time, the striking coral shades will help you achieve a fresh-faced complexion and a radiant, healthy sun-kissed glow.

The collection is comprised of, Pressed Eye Shadow shades, In for a Penny (Metallic, bronzy brown) and Buttered Up (Demi matte, Champagne); Natural Lip Gloss High Flyer (Burnt Orange) and Life’s a Peach (Matte, medium peach) Pressed Blush.

Because of the natural formulas, a lot of our products are multi use. Not only was the new Pressed Blush used on the apples of the cheeks, but also to add dimension to the eye lids.

To get this look, follow celebrity makeup artist, Jane Bradley’s guide:

“I blended Buttered Up across the entire lid, inner corners and lower lash line for a highlighted effect. Then I applied In for a Penny to the outer corner of the socket and take across the upper lash line. Make sure to blend any sharp edges.  I lightly swept Life’s a Peach across the apples of her cheeks for a fresh natural glow. High Flyer is a deep coral shade to give a fresh pigmented layer of colour and shine to the lips.”

We are thrilled to announce that our Natural Mascara has won its category. This is the second award that our new formula has collected and in recent weeks natural beauty bloggers have been singing its praises across social media sites all over the world.

So why has it been so popular? Our Mascara will define, volumise and lengthen but is fragrance, silicon, alcohol free and proves that natural brands can hold their own against other mainstream mascara brands.

The full makeup range, Pressed Eye Shadow and Natural Lipstick were all awarded ‘highly commended’ which is amazing and we are very proud.

We love winning awards and it’s a great excuse for a celebration.
