I don't normally do Valentine-based stuff on Get Lippie, being a big old heartless hairy-armed knee-jerk harpie and all that, but an email fell into my in-box this week, and I had to share it. I've already got a lipstick named after me, so I thought it was about time the incomparable MrLippie had something named after him, too. Luckily, OwnAColour.com have come to the rescue.
In a charitable initiative to support Unicef, Own A Colour have linked up with Purple Ronnie and Dulux, and in exchange for a minimum donation of £1 you can gift a colour to your loved one, they get to name it anything they like! Also, in exchange for your donation, and alongside their choice of colour, Purple Ronnie will write a personalised little love poem especially for your Valentine! All you have to do is log onto their Facebook page to find out how.
Who could resist? Turns out I couldn't. Purple Ronnie was kind enough to write me a little poem about the blog, and also drew a little picture of how he saw Get Lippie. And, as Mr Lippie somehow made his way into the picture, I simply had to share it!
Your make-up can go badly wrong

Get Lippie
Is the only place to go!

| Not actually a photo. Spooky resemblance though, right?* |
The Fine Print: NOT a sponsored post - Get Lippie has made a donation to charity as a result of the email.
PS: Sorry to have spoiled your Valentine surprise, M! I have no idea how Purple Ronnie found out about the dicky bow thing ... oh, and by the way, we are TOTES getting matching T-shirts with this on, oh yes.
