So the words on everyone's lips right now is that the colourful Cancervive Ride is about to take to the road. From Thursday, 10 to Sunday, 20 September, 60 cancer survivors and supporters will travel more than 2000km through three provinces on motorcycles; spreading hope, celebrating life and educating in excess of 12 000 people.

Inspired by this amazing Cancervive initiative, national REVLON South Africa makeup artist, Vuyo Varoyi, created a gorgeous Vive-a-licious lip look in support of the 2015 Cancervive Ride.

Why pink and red?

Pink represents femininity and expresses love. It is empathetic and sensitive towards the needs of others, whilst red represents passion and energy, and is used to express love and the will to live. "When combined, these colours perfectly symbolise the vital importance of the passionate way in which Cancervive is making a real difference in the lives others.” says Varoyi.
