Since its comeback in 2019 under Alessandro Michele's bold direction, Gucci Beauty has climbed its way up the ladder and become a firm favourite among the global beauty community. And it's keeping its foot on the pedal this season with not one but two new make-up offerings. 

Enter the all-new Rouge À Lèvres Liquide Mat and Gucci Stylo Définition L’Obscur. The former is a beautiful liquid lip colour with a hydrating formula that applies beautifully before drying down to a sophisticated matte finish. The latter is a waterproof black eyeliner with an extra-sharp felt tip to recreate the season's best graphic eyeliner looks.

For the very first time, Dior has chosen to distil the entire May rose harvest from Domaine de Manon, to collect its rose water. With a UNESCO intangible heritage classification, the fourth-generation flower farm in Grasse region of France has been cultivating fragrance flowers since the 1930s and exclusively for Dior for almost two decades. The result is the unique Miss Dior Rose Essence, the only one of its kind, presented as a yearly perfume vintage.
