For example, I had a look in my cupboard the other day only to find that all of my recent purchases were unintentionally khaki or brown.
On my latest cosmetics spree, I found that the exact same thing was happening with the beauty products in my basket. Except this time, everything was some shade of purple.

Sitting on the top of the pile were Swisspers Giant Cosmetic Squares – one of my staples. The 100 per cent pure cotton pads are brilliant for all manner of things, but I love them for nail polish removal as they’re just the right size to make sure each nail is clean and ready for another coat of colour.

Also in my basket was a Revlon Matte Eyeshadow in Aubergine – the perfect shade to create a smoldering, sexy look. I just couldn’t help myself.

And then there was the Clairol Herbal Essences Totally Twisted Curls and Waves Shampoo and Conditioner.
In my defense, these were picked not because of their colouring, but rather because they’re ideal for curly and wavy hair and I’m always on the lookout for products that’ll tame my unruly mane.
I wish I could say that was it, but really, those were just the tip of the big, purple-hued iceberg.
