BROLLIES FOR BREAST CANCER

ITV weather presenter Sin Lloyd has joined forces with Breast Cancer Haven to launch the charity's stylish new umbrella for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Sales of the handbag-sized brolly, in light pink with a dark pink under-canopy, will help the charity to continue its work in giving free support, information and complementary therapies to anyone affected by breast cancer. They are on sale at www.breastcancerhaven.org.uk, priced £8.

IN THE PINK

To celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October, Clinique has added a special limited-edition product to its Colour Surge Butter Shine range. Encased in specially-designed hot pink packaging, In The Pink Colour Surge Butter Shine Lipstick (RRP £12) features the same long-lasting sheen as the rest of the collection. It will be on sale in Boots stores nationwide during October, and for each lipstick sold, £1 will be donated by Clinique to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and £1 will be donated by Boots to Breast Cancer Care.

AUTUMN SHADES

Clinique's new autumn collection concentrates on the eyes, with rich earthy tones and dramatic lines creating a polished look. Colour Surge Eye Shadow Duo in Soft Shimmer (RRP £14) is available in four new combinations to shade, highlight and contour: Spruced Up, Posh Squash, Deco-Dence and Mochaberry.

Meanwhile, new Brush-On Cream Liner (RRP £12) is an ultra-smooth, creamy gel liner that provides the precision of a liquid liner, but with extra benefits - it's fast-drying, smudge-proof and long-lasting. Available in Black Honey, Deep Brown, True Black and Smoke Grey, the product can be applied thickly or thinly for a subtle or striking mood. Finish the look with High Definition Lashes (RRP £12.50).

Lips and cheeks are paler but still flawless, with new Blushing Blush Powder Blush (RRP £18) in Patchwork Pink and Patchwork Peach, and the Defining Lips: Long Last Lipstick Preview Palette (RRP £24) containing Pink Sand, Paprika, Merlot and Pink Peach.
