Opposites have attracted in an unexpected collaboration of lipstick and New Zealand strong wool.
In what is thought to be a world-first, Wool Source and lipstick brand Karen Murrell have joined forces to create a lipstick coloured with a wool keratin-based pigment.
The new lipstick “Kera Kisses” uses wool from Ashburton's Westmere Farm.
Karen Murrell says Lincoln Agritech's wool industry research team has developed a wool fibre that could be turned into protein.
She told Kate Hawkesby she was asked during lockdown if she wanted to collaborate.
Murrell says a year later they have a beautiful product, and describes it as a love story.
