Whether it’s skincare, makeup or a fresh new fragrance that puts a skip in your step, we’ve got you covered! Here are our top beauty essentials from leading brands this month.
GIVENCHY’S KEY TO BEING ICONIC
In 2019, Givenchy reinvented Le Rouge, its most iconic lipstick, drawing inspiration from Haute Couture fabrics to design three complementary variations. In addition to Le Rouge and Le Rouge Night Noir came an ultra-pigmented, totally matte, divinely comfortable version: Le Rouge Deep Velvet. Dressed in a red velvet case which echoes its powdery matte finish, Le Rouge Deep Velvet embodies the chic and sensorial attributes of the Maison.
This iconic lipstick is now available in eight new catalogue colours plus a limited-edition shade, all of them highly pigmented – and full of personality.
LOADED, LIFTED AND READY TO GO WITH CHARLOTTE TILBURY!
We’ve been searching for a miracle mascara that delivers instant volume, length and stretch for a 24hour vertical lift effect and the lashes of our dreams! So, we were excited to find that Charlotte Tilbury has launched the new Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes mascara. This product is developed with an exclusive, innovative paddle brush with easy-to-use load, comb and lift technology which also gives you a humidity and smudge-proof look. Charlotte herself says the mascara is “for every lash, every eye shape, EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE!” Sounds promising!
A DELICATE BALANCE WITH CHANEL
Reminiscent of the classic fragrance, this intimate version is bathed in soft light, the ultimate olfactory expression of COCO MADEMOISELLE. The COCO MADEMOISELLE L’EAU PRIVÉE from Chanel is designed to be sprayed in an enveloping gesture before bed, as generously on the skin as on the hair or even a negligée. A shiver of citrus and a vibration of patchouli make it a must have for night-time routines.
MISSHA’S EYE ESSENTIALS
The eyes are the window to the soul, and what better way to frame them then with a gorgeous pop of colour? Korean skincare and cosmetics brand, Missha, has these wonderful, easy-to-blend triple eyeshadow palettes that are perfect for those who are always on the go, as you can achieve a gradient eye look with just your fingers- no brush or makeup applicators needed. The packaging is also compact and lightweight, making it perfect to keep in your handbag to easily transition from day to night makeup looks. To firmly keep your eyeshadow in place, you can use the Missha Color Fix Eye Primer which helps it last all day long and keeps it from creasing.
NARCISO RODRIGUEZ’S PURELY LUXURIOUS MUSC
If you’re looking for a fragrance that reveals the purity and essence at the heart of musc, Narciso Rodriguez’s for her PURE MUSC eau de parfum absolue is the special limited-edition perfume that you need to get your hands on. The fragrance lends a profoundly exotic and sensual floral aura to its heart of musc making it an essential this season. The enveloping olfactory depth of the rare musc is enriched with floral notes, including new exotic Ylang Ylang note and more Jasmine while a hint of soft creamy cedarwood adds unexpected mystery.
FRESH FACED WITH FENTY
For a truly effortless, fresh look inspired by Rihanna’s flawless aesthetic, check out Fenty Beauty’s gorgeous bronzer, blush and highlighter for a stunning glow all year round.
To layer that colour and highlight it just right, apply the Cheeks Out Freestyle Cream Bronzer on cheeks, temples and the bridge of your nose to add instant warmth to your face. For a healthy-looking flush on cheeks and lips, sweep on the Cheeks Out Freestyle Cream Blush and layer as desired for a vibrant pop! Amp it up with a Killawatt Freestyle Highlighter of your choice for that ultimate radiance to keep your skin looking LIT!
SELF-CARE AND RELAXATION STARTS WITH RITUALS!
The Amsterdam Collection from Rituals is an exclusive collection of home and body products, created in an exclusive partnership with the Rijksmuseum, which was launched in the summer of 2019. Following its astounding success, the Amsterdam Collection will be expanded into a global limited-edition range.
The wondrous Amsterdam Collection is infused with Dutch tulips and Japanese yuzu: fragrant symbols of when historic Amsterdam first connected with the beauty of ancient Asia. The beautiful packaging features a design inspired by an iconic Delft Blue vase, portraying Asian flowers and birds in Delft Blue, making it an ideal gift too! Our top picks for the line are the Foaming Shower Gel and Body Cream for the ultimate relaxation combo.
