Our selection of new products hitting the shelf this June, from beauty to fashion to lifestyle

Diptyque

Diptyque’s annual limited-edition Summer Collection is back. This year, the French label offers an olfactory ode to Mediterranean summers across a bevvy of fragrances, candles and its first-ever summer valise. Nestled in the compartments are ten surprises selected from Diptyque’s summer favourites, including personal fragrances, home fragrances and summer care products, all presented in travel-friendly formats. 

But the heart of the range lies in the reintroduction of the Ilio fragrance, a tribute to the local flora and fauna of the Mediterranean, which arrives in the form of an eau de toilette, a hair mist, and for the first time, a face and body mist. The iconic Citronelle (lemongrass) candle also surfaces in the classic and giant-sized, extra-large formats, or a set of three accompanied by Cyprès (Cypress) and Figuier (Fig Tree).

In keeping with the theme, Diptyque tapped French artist Alexandre Benjamin Navet to design the packaging, which captures the laid-back way of life in pastel designs.

The City Candles collection has returned, too. The range takes you on a perfumed journey across 11 cities around the world – Paris, London, Berlin, New York, Miami, Beverly Hills, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Pékin and Séoul – with each limited-edition candle encapsulating the soul of the city, both in its notes and via a graphic motif inspired by meticulous details of that city’s architecture.

Clarins

With 50 years of skin expertise, Clarins launches four new sun products incorporating the latest plant-based and technological advances to help prevent wrinkles and dark spots. For the body, the new Glowing Sun Oil Mist SPF30 and Sun Spray Lotion SPF50+ both feature light, delicate textures with no white marks and sticky residue. For the face, the Youth-protecting Sunscreen Face Cream is available in both SPF 30 and 50, with a fine, melting texture that sets to a dry, matte finish.

Lululemon

Lululemon invites you to play hard, dig deep, and try something new with their multi-talented shorts, each with its own claim to fame. Crafted from buttery soft Nulu fabric, the Align Short fits like a second skin, following your every move. The License to Train Short on the other end features a relaxed fit that creates space for your full range of motion. Its tough fabric stands up to weights, while a high-rise and 4-inch length adds extra coverage. There’s also the Hotty Hot Short, with mesh panels to release heat and keep fresh air flowing. It features a roomy yet refined fit, allowing you to let loose and keep going.

Caudalie

An expert in helping skin maintain its youthful glow, Caudalie presents its newest addition to the Vinosun Protect collection, Invisible High Protection Stick SPF50. Rich in skin-nourishing ingredients, including natural grape seed oil and organic buriti oil, this sun stick is safe to use for all skin types – even on sensitive areas like the lips, eyelids, decollete, moles, beauty marks, scars and tattoos – and comes in an easy-to-use size perfect for travelling.

Suqqu

Inspired by sweet nectar, Suqqu’s new Touch of Nectar summer collection captures the essence of summer’s vibrant energy with vivid colours and translucent textures. Suqqu’s Signature Color Eyes Palette now comes in two limited-edition colour schemes reminiscent of strawberries and oranges.

To match are three Cream Touch Blush & Lip’s – a beige, a pinkish-red and berry – whose feather-like texture ensures seamless blending and imparts a subtle yet radiant glow. For more pigment, simply build up the layers.

Top it off with the Treatment Wrapping Lip, a juicy, high-shine gloss with the comfort of a lip balm thanks to nourishing ingredients. Choose between Natsubudou, an elegant juicy grape colour, and Mitsukogashi, a milky orange.

Complete your look with the Nail Color Polish in either Shouka, a purple, and Mikansui, a yellow. Boasting a sheer, buildable formula, the polish coats your talons seamlessly from cuticle to tip in just one swipe.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian

Paris is the muse behind Maison Francis Kurkdjian latest fragrances: Petit Matin and Grand Soir.

A clean, gentle scent, Petit Matin evokes a stroll through the still-deserted arcades of a Paris still cast in daylight. The first spray is cheerful and energetic, with notes of litsea cubeba from Indonesia and Calabrian lemon. A sweetness comes through with the lavender and hawthorn, before drying down to a white musk.

When evening falls, dress your skin in the vibrant notes of Grand Soir as you lose yourself in the energetic pace and mystery of a meandering night in the City of Light. Meaning “big evening”, it opens with a dry woody amber scent that gets sweeter with the vanilla and benzoin.

Charlotte Tilbury

Charlotte Tilbury has a new secret to flawless skin: the Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint Hydrating Foundation Stick. The ultimate no-foundation foundation, this new foundation stick melts seamlessly into the skin in just 15 seconds, promising a blurring, smoothing, ring light and 3D sculpting effect to boot. Best of all, it’s good for your skin, infused with plant-powered Collageneer, hyaluronic acid, daikon radish seed oil and vitamin E to keep your skin firm, plump and hydrated.

Canada Goose

Step into summer with style in Canada Goose’s new 2024 Eternal Summer Collection. An ode to the captivating energy of the sun, the collection features lightweight styles and timeless silhouettes of uncompromising quality for you to unleash your fashion freedom and full potential of every summertime adventure, from the coast to the countryside and beyond.

For comfortable yet stylish “wind-stopping”, you have the Kaslo Cropped Wind Jacket, featuring stretch cuffs and a double-layered hood with interior drawcord. For men, the Killarney Wind Jacket and Pant wind-stoppers provide ideal protection for those summer squalls.   

Layer underneath the Broadview T-Shirt, made for her from 100% organic cotton; or the Beckley Polo in Organic Cotton Pique for him, crafted from 100% organic fibres for a soft-to-the-touch feel with ultimate breathability.

Complete your look with the new Canada Goose Vancouver Rain Boot, available in Black, Snowcap White or Daydream Blue, which is fully waterproof yet ultra-lightweight with a cosy lining for breathable warmth and rubber outsole for maximised grip to tackle the rainiest summers day in comfort and style.
