MAC · La Leyenda Extra Dimension Skinfinish
Interesting fact: Selena Quintanilla-Perez’s posthumous original collaboration with MAC ranks as one of the top-selling collections in cosmetics history. I’ll let that sink in for a minute. Now, I confess to not knowing much about the late artist — other than the fact that she was not only incredibly talented, but tragically killed in the prime of her life — but I wasn’t going to pass on this stunning piece from her second collection with MAC, aptly titled Selena La Reina.

CHANEL · Fall Winter 2020/2021 Beauty
For CHANEL’s recent Fall/Winter 2020-2021 Ready-To-Wear show, Paris’ historic Grand Palais (aka: the brand’s go-to venue), was transformed into a representation of the River Seine.

CHANEL · La Fleur et L’Eau Collection + new Le Blanc for 2020
A new collection created to celebrate spring’s “awakening“, CHANEL has released La Fleur et L’Eau — with all pieces as beautiful to look at, as they are to wear. I’ve also included Rosy Light Drops, the latest addition to the Le Blanc family … mainly because everything just works so beautifully together. I love beauty synergy, don’t you?
