Liptember: raising funds and awareness for women’s mental health.
What’s the dish? Liptember is a month-long women’s mental health fundraising and awareness campaign that supports the important (and frequently overlooked) services of Lifeline Australia and The Centre for Women’s Mental Health at the RWH. Funds raised by the sale of the official Liptember Lippie, sponsorship and direct donations will help to fund these vital point-of-contact services that, for many women including myself, have provided help, support and education.
The official lippie this year is Burt’s Bees Hibiscus tinted lip balm, a lightweight and wearable balm featuring a universally flattering shade of dusty rose. Hibiscus is free of shimmer or sparkle, and has just enough colour to emphasise and compliment your natural lip shade. Tres pretty!
Ready to pucker up in the name of raising awareness women’s mental health concerns? Go snaffle your Hibiscus tinted lip balm from the beauty essentials counter of any Myer store in Australia for only AU$10, then pop onto Liptember.com.au and ask your friends and family to sponsor you to rock the ‘Biscus for all of September. Want to sponsor someone? My blogging friend Belle Lumiere is doing her part – go sponsor her!

My pleasure! I can’t commit to wearing it myself – work reasons mostly, I can’t wear a competitors product – so you’re my much more attractive stand in x
