Costing £12, the SATINcredible Lipstick comes in four neutral shades and are called Zo, Fran, Jojo and T – a nod to her close friends’ nicknames. Her eight lipliners, meanwhile, also feature the same names but in full, as well as more of her pals including Catherine and Gemma.

So why did Lisa choose to reference her friends so publically?
