From Rimowa’s first leather bag collection to CurrentBody’s newest LED innovation, here are our recent favourite beauty and lifestyle launches
Nars
Inspired by the glow of the sun, Nars’ new, limited-edition shades of its Light Reflecting Prismatic Powders help counteract a dull-looking complexion by setting makeup with subtle brightness and reflecting light for a soft-focus effect that optically fades fine lines, wrinkles and pores. Light-optimising pearls help boost radiance for luminous skin, all while effortlessly setting your makeup with translucent coverage and a lightweight, natural finish. Choose from a uniquely marbleised pressed or a delicate loose formula for your favourite way to finish.
CurrentBody
CurrentBody continues to push the boundaries of LED technology to a level never seen with their new Multi-Light Therapy Mask. Powered by the brand’s Veritace® technology, this skin-transforming mask features six clinically proven wavelengths (red, near-infrared, deep near-infrared, blue, yellow and green) and five targeted treatment modes designed to address a wide range of skin concerns, including Anti-Ageing, Clearing, Restoring, Brightening and Complete. The latter uses a combination of wavelengths, as well as precision mapping that places LEDs strategically across each facial zone to target the area’s top concerns, delivering targeted results.
Rimowa
Rimowa, long recognised for its sleek aluminium cases, expands on its design language with the launch of the Groove Collection. This new line of Italian-made leather bags takes the Maison’s signature grooved motif and reinterprets it for everyday fashion. The result is a series of silhouettes that feel both unmistakably Rimowa and strikingly modern, crafted from supple leather that offers structure and elegance in equal measure. Designed to complement the its iconic suitcases, the collection features four distinct silhouettes: the Shopping Bag, Sliding Hobo Bag, Cross-Body Bag Large, and Cross-Body Bag Small, all carefully crafted to seamlessly transition through everyday life.
Burberry Beauty
Burberry introduces a new shade for its classic Eye Quad, Dusty Dusk 05, inspired by the colours of twilight. Consisting of soft smoky tones and warm pink hues, each shade offers offers eight-hour wear and intense colour payoff in a buttery-soft feel. Encased in a beige and gold compact case, the Eye Quad includes a mirror and double-ended applicator for precise, multi-effect looks.
Kilian Paris
Kilian Paris’s latest launch, Angels’ Share On The Rocks, is icy, sexy and perfect for the fall. Inspired by the way Kilian Hennessy enjoys cognac – on the rocks – this creation reimagines the Angels’ Share indulgence. The original Angels’ Share, launched in 2020, is characterised by its predominantly woody, spicy dry-down notes: cognac, cinnamon, tonka bean, oak, Hedione, vanilla, praline, sandalwood, and candied almond. On the Rocks takes that same base formula and adds a zesty cocktail of bitter orange, grapefruit and lemon oil, bergamot and aldehydes. The result is like dropping two ice cubes in the most decadent glass of liquor.
Coinciding with this launch, Kilian Paris invites fragrance enthusiasts to embark on an extraordinary sensory journey at their Kilian bar at K11 Musea. From now until October 12, head over to explore the brand’s iconic fragrance collections and experience their unique “scent-ertainment” concept, bringing joy and vitality to life through beloved scents.
Dolce&Gabbana Beauty
The maison’s new My Lip Stylo collection is made up of a trio of lip-comforting formulas with different finishes: matte, satin and glossy. Housed in a sleek and slim black and gold packaging, the My Comfy Matte lipsticks pack a serious punch with rich colour and beautifully blurred finish in a creamy, dreamy formula that hugs lips while imparting lightweight comfort. It’s available in 24 shades, ranging from reds to magentas to pinks, that deliver all-day maximum impact with a single stroke.
Next, the My Sculpt Satins deliver the perfect balance of matte and glossy to lips. Available in 18 shades, the hydrating formula effortlessly glides onto lips, creating a fuller lip with a subtle sheen that stays put for hours.
Finally, the My Juicy Sheer rounds out the collection. Somewhere in between a lip gloss and balm, Dolce&Gabbana’s juicy formula melts on the lips, infused with Italian olive oil to condition lips and hyaluronic acid to deeply moisturise, depositing a high-shine finish with a boost of hydration in 12 stunning colours.
Sam Eldeman
For its Fall/Winter 2025 collection, Sam Edelman masterfully interprets the multifaceted allure of the modern woman through six distinctive style themes: animal prints, burgundy tones, earth-tone palette, gender-neutral aesthetic, cosy textures, and dazzling party elements.
There’s the Sarah 2, which channels the untamed spirit of the leopard in a double-strap Mary Jane design with a comfortable 6cm block heel. While the newly launched Arya, crafted in luxurious wine red velvet with an innovative crisscross elastic strap design, perfectly fuses fashion with functionality. Embracing Pantone’s colour trend of the year, Mocha Mousse, the new Alie Stud in coffee-coloured suede with edgy stud decorations reinterpret classic ballet flats with a cool attitude.
Drawing from the continued influence of menswear elements in women’s fashion, Sam Edelman skilfully reinterprets masculine elements through a feminine lens with classic oxford styles and derby shoes. Like, the Liona loafer, which features a British Baroque-inspired design, highlighting innovative colour-blocking and patchwork craftsmanship that perfectly combines navy blue, ivory white and brown.
Underpinned by the concept of “comfortable luxury”, the Astrid Cozy platform mules combines materials including suede, knit and fine leather with shearling to showcase a warm, comfortable and richly layered home style. And the Loraine lofaer embodies the “dopamine dressing” trend, with party elements like delicate metal chains and crystal embellishments.
