La Mer’s new Rejuvenating Night Cream is perhaps their best night cream yet – it targets 8 critical signs of aging, working both visibly and from within. Its uniqueness lies in its rare ingredients: MRA-3, a new sea-borne skin renewal complex, combined with La Mer’s signature Miracle Broth. This formula recharges and visibly renews cells overnight. Its pillow-proof texture also ensures the cream stays on your skin, and not your bedding, maximising its rejuvenating effects while you sleep.
Prada’s Universal Optimisers trio lives up to its name by offering versatile beauty solutions. This collection comprises a Blurring Extending Primer, Rebalancing Setting Powder, and Universal Lip Balm. While initially showcasing Prada’s signature green hue, these products transform to a transparent finish upon application, ensuring suitability for all skin tones. The primer is infused with skin-enhancing ingredients like AHA, BHA, and LHA, promoting a smoother complexion. Meanwhile, the lip balm delivers deep hydration with Bifidus extract and jojoba oil – talk about giving your lips a spa day!
Available in 13 highly pigmented and mood-boosting colours, from bold reds to sultry nudes, Valentino Beauty introduces its new matte lipstick collection Spike Valentino. This line’s distinctive packaging features a magnetic aluminium casing, drawing inspiration from Valentino’s signature rockstud design. In its contribution merging haute couture aesthetics with eco-conscious practices, 6 of these shades are available in refillable formats, highlighting the brand’s commitment to sustainable beauty innovation.
The Burberry Goddess Eau de Parfum Intense, a sophisticated evolution of the original Goddess fragrance, is Burberry’s latest olfactory masterpiece. This gourmand, aromatic and woody scent amplifies its signature trio of vanillas with a fourth smoky vanilla wood extract, creating an intensified aroma that embodies the essence of the Burberry Goddess. The fragrance is further elevated by lavender essence and patchouli, resulting in a vibrant, smoky and luxuriously feminine perfume.
Dior reinvents its best-selling Rouge Dior lipstick line for 2024, unveiling a revolutionary approach to nude lips. The expanded collection features an unparalleled range of nude shades in Rouge Dior lipsticks, complemented by new Rouge Dior Contour shades for perfect lip sculpting and a nourishing Rouge Dior Balm in three universal, satin-finish hues. This comprehensive nude lip routine, enriched with floral lip care ingredients, offers infinite possibilities for personalisation.
