We love new products, trends and tips but ever wondered about wearing them in real life? Each week we’ll take on a test drive, from the newest nail colour, to playing with perfume or seeing how long that hairstyle actually takes and share what we find (sweet, not-so-sweet and everything in between).

Day One
The trend: Orange Lips
The fear factor: When I wear lip colour (which is rare) I usually stick to a bright pink. I was nervous to wear orange (but a teensy bit excited to see how it would look).
The response: Coworkers liked it, but no one stopped me in my tracks to compliment the colour.
The verdict: I don't feel like a clown, but I also wasn't won over by it. Plus, the stains left on my coffee mug (which really contained hot chocolate) and on my soup spoon had me longing for my lip balm.
