LPG® LAUNCHES A NEW EXPERT EYES & LIPS BEAUTY RITUAL

French beauty and health expert LPG has unveiled a new Endermologie® treatment for young, luscious lips and fresh eye contours.

Ludovic Loffreda, CEO at LPG Bella Concept LLC said: “The new Endermologie® Perfect Eyes & Lips treatment offers a synergy of actions by detoxifying the dermis environment to boost cells’ good health in the lips and eye contour area, where women need to pay more close attention to if they want to keep a young and youthful face.”

This treatment works two ways: it detoxifies the cellular environment by eliminating toxic substances and it awakens youth cells (fibroblasts) to reactivate their natural synthesis of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. The third step to maintain the youthful skin around the eyes and lips area is to use the 3 new Endermologie® cosmétiques range which has been specially developed to optimize the results of Endermologie® professional treatments. Stimulated and vascularized, the skin perfectly assimilates the carefully-selected and highly-concentrated active ingredients contained in LPG® cosmetics.

After an intense skin fitness session, the application of the new Post-Care Eye Contour Mask will be a relaxing and calming step for the skin. In addition, the application of the Anti-aging Renewal Serum and the Eye & Lip Contour Cream will be the finishing touch to this exceptional premium treatment.

POST-CARE EYE CONTOUR MASK

These fully-covering and sheathing pre-cut fabric patches perfectly fit the delicate and fragile eye contour area to deliver complete and optimal efficiency and offer an incredible tensing effect. The eyes are rested for 10 minutes, the eye contour area is smoothed and recovers its youthful appearance! Its formulation is a combination of peptides such as hyaluronic acid and marine collagen to replump and instantaneously firm the skin; and a biotech polypeptide, efficient against dark circles.

LPG® CELLULAR REGENERATION COMPLEX

The LPG® Cellular Regeneration Complex is associated with high-performance active ingredients selected for their targeted anti-aging properties which include the Beautyfeye® active ingredient – an abstract from the Persian silk tree and the Siegesbeckia orientalis – that enables an upper eyelid tensing effect, associated with a natural and immediate tensing active ingredient and powerful anti-wrinkle principles that fight against puffiness and eye swelling. This cocktail of highly-powerful active ingredients allows to instantly replump the delicate and particularly dehydrated skin of the eye and lip contour area.

LPG EYE & LIP CONTOUR CREAM FOR PERFECT EYES & SMILE

Ideal partner of the Anti-aging Renewal Serum, the new Eye & Lip Contour Cream is presented as a precious golden pen and encloses 30% of the exclusive and highly-powerful LPG® Cellular Regeneration Complex.

This anti-aging product is based on the exclusive and patented ITD (Intelligence Targeting Device) system, the new technology coming from cancer research. Real GPS of the skin, the patented capsule contains a ligand peptide anchored on its external surface that will direct it to the targeted cell’s (fibroblast) specific receptor. The active ingredient is thus delivered at the heart of the cell but in a targeted way thanks to the ligand (key to reach the heart of the cell) to increase collagen and elastin production.

This new LPG Perfect Eyes & Lips treatment together with the 3 new cosmetic range provides an intense physiological awakening and boosts cells’ metabolism. From the first session, you will see visible results:

• The delicate skin around the eyes is smoothed for a fresher face

• The upper eyelid is lifted for a younger look

• Lipstick and marionette lines fade

• The lips are plumped, soft and smooth

To get optimal results, LPG experts advise to have a full one-month treatment, which is once a week for 4 weeks. Then, go for once a month treatment to optimize results and occasionally indulge for special events such as parties or weddings.

Aspinal of London Reveals Autumn/Winter 2016 Collection

[espro-slider id=855]

Aspinal take a retrospective look at bygone eras of classic vintage styling and true elegance, whilst drawing inspiration from the brand’s artisanal heritage and also celebrating the most enduring and ever-alluring object of beauty-the pearl.

Aspinal of London was originally established to supply British artisan-made leather stationary and accessories to the world’s finest museums, galleries and cultural institutions, such as The Louvre, The Vatican, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The British Museum and The National Gallery. This season, Aspinal remains true to its artisanal roots of making handcrafted quality leather goods with a distinctive British style, drawing inspiration from the ages of elegance whilst also looking towards the future.

Building on the brand’s iconic heritage styles The Marylebone, The Brook Street and The Mayfair, Aspinal has created complimentary new bags to add to the core collection; The Pearl Bowling Bag and The Editor’s Bag are reflective of a refined English sensibility, practical and are designed and made to be loved for a lifetime.

From Vermeer’s famous depiction of “Girl With A Pearl Earring” through to contemporary fashion, the pearl has long been a symbol of elegant perfection. Aspinal follows a journey through many decades as this timeless gem is reinterpreted in the new Pearl Collection, combining allusions of the Art Deco era with a more modern take on vintage sophistication, whilst the 1940s and 1950s provide inspiration for the new Editor’s Tote and Mayfair Collection.

Senses are awakened to rich textures and contrasts throughout the new collections, from luxurious furry softness to crisp croc printed leathers, pearl detailing with high-shine polish leather to magical blasts of colour.

The colour palette is grounded in oh-so-feminine chanterelle and luxe forget-me-not with dashes of dusky pink and the palette is given extra depth with rich bordeaux, navy blue moon and black.

Textural depth is expressed in contrasting pebbled, smooth and polished leathers. Luxurious highlights include croc printed leather, frosted hardware and pearl detailing. Tactility and luxury are watchwords throughout.

NEW FOR AW16:

EDITOR’S TOTE

Drawing inspiration from the 1940s and inspired by women working in fashion, from Diana Vreeland through to Alexandra Shulman, our creative Director Mariya Dykalo has created the ever so chic yet practical Editor’s Tote, with its feminine design and sleek simple lines. This key style makes an elegant and essential addition to the workwear wardrobe of the modern woman. The forward-thinking smart tote also takes wearable tech to the next level. As good-looking as it is clever, the tech-enabled tote features Aspinal’s inbuilt mobile phone charging function and the new Aspinal Tracking Tile, which allows you to track your bag via your mobile (or other devices such as iPad, PC etc.), ensuring you will never lose your bag whilst on the go or on your travels.

ASPINAL PEARL BOWLING BAG

Lovingly adorned with delicate pearl detailing, the bag offers two chic sizes and an elegant shape, ensuring that The Pearl Bowling Bag will provide the ideal everyday companion to your off-duty wardrobe. Constructed from soft black or chanterelle leather, both large and small sizes come with an optional leather shoulder strap for hands-free carrying.

PEGASUS CAPSULE COLLECTION

Aspinal of London has joined forces with award-winning graphic artist Emma Shipley to create a capsule collection of bags and scarves that also celebrates the pearl and looks forward to the future. Taking inspiration from Aspinal’s iconic feather symbol, Shipley has created a magical Pegasus figure, ethereal and resplendent in pearl white. Hand-drawn pearly constellations, planets, galaxies and shooting stars surround this mythological creature which is digitally printed onto key bag silhouettes and beautiful silk, twill and cashmere blend scarves. “I’m a huge fan of Aspinal of London and the collaboration is an exciting opportunity to translate my detailed pencil illustrations onto bags, using the most beautiful craftsmanship,” explains Shipley. Ten bag styles are available in magical golden tones or midnight pearly hues, along with four scarf designs available in dusty rose, strong magenta and bold monochrome.

PEGASUS SHOULDER BAG

The new Pegasus Shoulder Bag gives a lesson in timeless charm with its chic black design and intricately designed gold clasp. Its petite structure and clean lines offer a sophisticated style, making it the perfect accompaniment to work, weekend and evening wardrobes alike.

REGENT TOTE

Refresh your city-shopper wardrobe with the clean-lined Regent Tote. Beautifully fashioned in croc and smooth leathers, this structured design opens to a suede-lined interior with a linked pouch, perfectly fusing form and function. Deliberately and delightfully simple, The Regent Tote is roomy in size and can be worn over the shoulder.

DOVER STREET BAG

Created in both large and small sizes, The Dover Street Bag has a streamlined and refined boxy silhouette. Accented with a chunky detachable strap and lady-like top handle, this bag comes in blue moon, forget-me-not and chanterelle colourways, the latter including natural python additions.

This compact style will fit your daily essentials, whilst the larger version is spacious enough to carry A4 documents.

LARGE LOTTIE BAG

Super-sophisticated and very gown up, this season the well-loved Lottie Bag goes supersized. New colourways of dusky pink and chanterelle are added to this already bestselling shoulder bag.

OXFORD RUCKSACK

Boost your accessories collection with Aspinal’s new totally practical and versatile rucksack. This chic rucksack boasts a buckle lock and is tailored with a top handle for carrying and has a selection of roomy external pockets.

MINISCULE IS MORE!

Create the maximum statement with Aspinal’s new range of mini bags!

MINI MAYFAIR

The iconic Mayfair Bag is scaled-down to micro proportions and ornately decorated with Aspinal’s shield lock clasp and gold finish hardware. This gorgeously precious bag oozes chic.

MINI SADDLE BAG

Issuing more key classics in delectable doll-size versions, the best-selling Saddle Bag shrinks to fit this season while retaining its classic equestrian style. With a soft leather finish and signature letterbox lock, this incredibly useful and smart cross-body bag will put a fabulous accent on every outfit.

SAFIYA BAG

Dune London Autumn/Winter 2016

Autumn presents a veritable palette combining bolder prints and textures. This season sees maximalist take over; brocade fabrics, liquid metal finishing and opulent velvets pull the collection into an era of dark glamour.

Winter khaki tones and utility inspired styles are introduced pre-fall, harnessing the season’s rebellious spirit. Dramatic hardware, cleated tread soles and burnished metallics enhance classic brogue and ankle boot profiles.

Rich, decadent fabrics evoke a notion of moody romance; electric blue and deep berry velvets cover ‘over the knee’ boots whilst brocade and lace textures feature on ankle boot and heeled silhouettes. Further fabric details emerge later in the season; gold tapestry, poetic winter florals and glossy black patent leathers add auxiliary allure.

Satin proves to be a key texture within eveningwear, with elegant ribbon trims wrapped over pointed profiles and ballerina tie fascinating’s adding interest.

Heel details are key this season; varying from spikey kitten, to high block cylinder shapes coated in foil. Platform heels are covered in metallic glitter and adorned with jewels playing into the maximalist trend.

DAVIDOFF COOL WATER ENGAGES CONSUMERS IN CONSERVATION WITH A FILM FEATURING SCOTT EASTWOOD

[espro-slider id=815]

The first fragrance to be inspired by the ocean, DAVIDOFF Cool Water is now leading the way to help protect the ocean. This summer, the brand is releasing a new film featuring its ambassador Scott Eastwood. The message of the film is a call to action to safeguard one of the world’s most precious natural resources — but also one of its most endangered. The film is an extension of DAVIDOFF Cool Water’s long-standing Love the Ocean campaign in support of the National Geographic Society’s Pristine Seas project, which aims to protect 10% of the world’s ocean by 2020.

THE POWER TO CHANGE

The new film, which will be released on July 1, 2016, and screened across a wide range of digital platforms, steps up the Love the Ocean initiative with an individual call to action. The film’s aim is to convince each and every one of us that we can make a difference. “As individuals, we have more power to change the world than we think,” says Scott Eastwood, who — having been born in California and raised in Hawaii — feels a special connection to the ocean.

Shot near the actor’s home in San Diego, the DAVIDOFF Cool Water film highlights Scott Eastwood’s concern for ocean conservation and his commitment to fighting water pollution issues. It also features a beach clean-up organized in partnership with the National Geographic Society and the Surfrider Foundation. Given that 80 percent of pollution in the marine environment comes from land and that by 2050 current estimates indicate that the ocean will contain more plastic than fish when measured by weight, beach clean-ups are one way — along with simple lifestyle changes — that individuals can take action. According to Shah Selbe, National Geographic Explorer: “Even a single person can make a massive amount of difference when it comes to ocean conservation.”

FROM THE INDIVIDUAL TO THE GLOBAL

By extending its Love the Ocean initiative with an individual call to action, DAVIDOFF Cool Water aims to complement the impressive progress being achieved on a global scale by the National Geographic Society’s Pristine Seas project. Since 2012, DAVIDOFF Cool Water has supported 14 Pristine Seas expeditions, which informed the establishment of five marine protected areas, totalling 1,713,518 square kilometres or 2.18% of the world’s ocean.

The inspiring message of the film is that we all have a part to play — which is why, throughout summer 2016, DAVIDOFF Cool Water will be promoting beach clean-ups in key countries, encouraging individuals, wherever they may be, to demonstrate their love for the ocean and to contribute to change. As Scott Eastwood says at the end of the film: “It starts with one — one hour of your time, one day, one piece of trash.”

ABOUT THE LOVE THE OCEAN INITIATIVE

DAVIDOFF Cool Water has a long-standing partnership with the National Geographic Society’s Pristine Seas project — which involves scientific expeditions to explore and document fragile marine environments across the globe. Every year, DAVIDOFF Cool Water mobilizes its millions of loyal users worldwide around the Love the Ocean initiative, with the commitment that each bottle of DAVIDOFF Cool Water sold will help protect 10,000 square metres (more than 100,000 square feet) of ocean.

Rimmel & Kate Moss Celebrate 15 Years of Partnership With a Special-Edition Lip Anniversary Collection

Two British beauty icons, 15 years of London looks… Join us to celebrate the 15^th anniversary of the most successful, unrivalled partnership in the beauty world. Rimmel and Kate Moss introduce a special-edition lip collection in Kate’s favourite reds and nudes. Revel in timeless Brit cool at its best.

Rimmel’s muse since 2001, Kate has always embodied the edgy styles and soul of the capital city; she’s the true original spokesperson for the London Look. Paying homage to Kate’s most iconic looks, the new anniversary collection celebrates the different facets of her fashion personality from red carpet idol to boho goddess.

Kate says: “I’m incredibly proud of my 15 year relationship with Rimmel. It’s a brand very close to my heart; my first ever lipstick was Rimmel Heather Shimmer. The partnership has strengthened and evolved over the years, with me taking an actively creative role. The new anniversary collection echoes some of my favourite London looks from the last decade and a half. I’ve focused on reds and nudes because they’re the colours I love to wear – each shade reflects a different side of me.”

Anniversary Collection: Lasting Finish Lipstick By Kate

First introduced in 2011 to mark the 10^th anniversary of Rimmel and Kate’s relationship, Lasting Finish Lipstick By Kate was the model’s debut make-up line. Loved by Rimmel girls everywhere, it’s a global phenomenon with thousands of lipsticks sold over five years. Building on this success the anniversary collection stars six lust-worthy shades – three reds and three nudes – each inspired by a classic Kate look.

Muse Red #51 is a rich, head-turning crimson that evokes Kate’s effortless elegance on the red carpet. Kate comments: “When I’m going somewhere special, a bold red lip makes me feel ‘done’. I created Muse Red for that perfect blend of drama and sophistication.”

Inspired by Kate’s love of playful and rebellious fashion, Idol Red #52 is a lush, vibrant red for a daring, cutting-edge look.

Exuding vintage glamour, Retro Red #53 is a sumptuous berry red that reflects the revamped ‘40s and ‘50s retro style that Kate adores.

Boho Nude #56 is a warm caramelised nude that complements Kate’s laid-back boho look. She says: “My secret to pared-back boho beauty is natural, earthy shades. I love how the caramel tones of Boho Nude lipstick warm my skin.”

Kate’s renowned rock chick style is captured by Rock N Roll Nude #54, a peach-tinted neutral for party girls everywhere. Wear with smoky eyes and a wild-child attitude.

Taking inspiration from Kate’s everyday street look, My Nude #55 is a beige nude shade for understated casual chic. Team with a blazer for a dash of Kate’s nonchalant cool.

All of Kate’s lip shades are designed to dazzle throughout the day with a full impact formula that’s infused with light-reflecting Black Diamonds. What’s more, the richly-saturated, luminous colour lasts for up to 8 hours. Your pout will have the power to mesmerise.

In honour of the 15^th anniversary, the collection has a premium looking special-edition pack. The elegant, designer-style casing is revamped in metallised rose-gold – Kate’s favourite colour – making each lipstick a perfect collector piece.

Iconic Ad Campaign

In celebration of 15 years of the London look, the print advertising campaign sees Kate recreating two of her most iconic styles. In the Red look, she is a smouldering femme fatale with ravishing scarlet lips and tips. In the Nude look, she rocks the boho chic look complete with tousled locks and a shaggy gillet. Both visuals are emblazoned with Kate’s name – her signature of approval.

Rimmel + Kate Moss equals a beautiful partnership! Celebrate with iconic shades created by Kate, inspired by her London looks.
