Exclusively for the 25th anniversary: Bobbi Brown’s City Collection

September 13, 2016 by Editorial Team

Exclusively for the 25th anniversary, Bobbi Brown introduces a collection of limited edition palettes celebrating three iconic fashion cities.

In celebration of 25 years of “be who you are” beauty at Bobbi Brown, the American professional makeup artist and the founder and CCO of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, has collaborated with illustrator Richard Haines for the an exclusive line of palettes.

Since Bobbi Brown launched a range of ten lipstick shades 25 years ago, her brand has become a symbol the world over; creating flattering and natural-looking products to help showcase your natural beauty.

To celebrate the anniversary, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics introduced the City Collection, exclusive to harrods. Grounded in a simple idea: be who you are, the limited edition top-end range features three eye and cheek palettes and limited-edition shades of the popular Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner and Luxe Lip Color. Taking inspiration from Bobbi’s favourite cities – London, New York and Paris – the colours take their cue from cosmopolitan charismatic characters.

“From the cool New Yorker to the fashionable Brit to the chic Parisian, the limited edition makeup palettes and hand- picked shades inside perfectly capture what I love about each city,” explained the world-renowned makeup artist and creator of universally-flattering foundations, eye shadows and mascaras.

Sought-after illustrator Richard Haines has created beautiful sketches inspired by the cities to adorn each palette.

A navy eye shadow has been chosen for a trend-led Brit, understated nudes for the effortless New Yorker, and grey hues for the elegant Parisian. For the eyeliner and lip colour, opt for suitably representative shades: Union Jack for London, Dark Chocolate for New York and Parisian Red.

This Fall saw also the launch of Bobbi’s new Retouching Wand. This “magic wand” is not quite a foundation, but more than coverup. This unique formula seamlessly and invisibly evens out skin for a retouched yet natural look.

September 2, 2016September 2, 2016 by Editorial Team

A skin care pioneer & spa industry veteran, esthetician and legend Repêchage Founder and President Lydia Sarfati changed the industry forever more than 35 years ago by pioneering a whole new concept where nature, specifically the sea, holds the key to the proper care of the skin. No one knows better than Sarfati when it comes to creating luxurious skin care backed by real science. It is for this reason Repêchage has won the hearts of connoisseurs all over the world: by combining highly effective skin care that also engages and appeals to the senses.

“A fully interactive experience is a must in beauty,” says Sarfati. “Products have to stimulate the senses, the ingredients have to be incredible and the results have to be impressive. Repêchage was specifically created to provide the most effective skin care using marine-based ingredients such as seaweeds, enjoyed in fully sensory spa experiences, and provided by estheticians who have an in-depth esthetic education.”

The organic seaweed, the number one ingredient in all her products, comes from the Brittany Coast of France. In addition, the beauty house is also sourcing its sustainably harvested EcoCert seaweed from waters in Maine. EcoCert seaweed extracts come with an ocean heritage bathing the skin with a special formula containing 12 vitamins, 42 trace elements and minerals, and over a dozen of amino acids. The clinically tested non-irritant products are gluten free, paraben free, and are not tested on animals.

We can take advantage from the many benefits of seaweed at home, but the best way to show your skin some love is to see an esthetician. Discover how you can make seaweed & science a part of your beauty regime…
