CHANEL · New Le Vernis 2023
In the latest edition of CHANEL’s 24-hue Le Vernis range, the brand has tweaked both the formula and the brush, along with launching 17 new shades. As a long-time collector (over 30 years now!), I’ve seen many iterations come and go, and what impresses me the most is that CHANEL is always looking to improve & innovate. Oh, and the colours are absolutely FAB.
CHANEL · Rouge Allure Velvet (2023)
Originally launched in 2011 as a bridge between a matte & luminous finish, Rouge Allure Velvet has been reinvented in 2023 with twenty shades encompassing the red spectrum. In fact, the colour red has great significance for the House, as this was the shade Gabrielle Chanel believed expressed the true power of a woman. Personally, nothing says “I’m owning it” quite as effectively as a red lipstick, wouldn’t you agree?
Dior · Summer 2023 Collection
Dior’s Summer 2023 Collection draws inspiration from the sun-drenched French Riviera, with jewel-toned hues and easy to wear shades that just screams summer. Well, maybe not scream, but definitely whisper dreamily … it is the French Riviera, after all.
CHANEL · Backstage Beauty Fall-Winter 2023/24 Ready-to-Wear Show
Mademoiselle’s beloved camellia flower was featured all over CHANEL’s recent Fall-Winter 2023/24 Ready-to-Wear Show, but I naturally zeroed in on the beauty look created. Personally, I’m all about makeup I can recreate at home and if it’s with products I already own, then that’s even sweeter.
Guerlain · Terracotta Le Teint
Guerlain has recently expanded the Terracotta family with their first complexion product for the range: Terracotta Le Teint. In keeping with the line’s aesthetic of mimicking that “healthy healthy glow”, you could consider this less a conventional foundation, but more along the lines of a complexion enhancer … and I’m ALL about that vibe.
