Stepping into summer with a series of new goodies for vivacious glamour, Dolce & Gabbana has found its new beauty groove. Since re-launching its beauty leg in September of last year with the Devotion fragrance and beauty range, the Italian house is pivoting into make-up with the launch of a comprehensive collection of 11 new products including everything from primer and lip-plumpers to mascara.
Imagine a balmy summer night spent dancing under a disco ball to Donna Summer’s ‘I Feel Love’, an Aperol Spritz in your hand, feather boa around your neck and a pop of colour on your face. You’re wearing D&G’s new Bold Look beauty duo which includes the Eye Dare You! Multi-finish Eyes & Cheeks Palette and the That’s My Line! 24H Lasting Waterproof Eyeliner. It’s true warm weather bliss.
The perfect palette for playing with your makeup, Eye Dare You! offers 12, ultra vibrant, long lasting eyeshadows in a variety of finishes. There’s a selection of mattes, metallics, biodegradable glitters, 3D pigments and a two in one gel for effortless application to the eyelids and cheeks. Infused with Italian Prickly Pear Oil for nourishment and Hyaluronic Acid for plump, hydrated skin, you can’t go wrong.
That’s My Line! on the other hand, is a waterproof eyeliner that’s available in seven eye-catching shades – pun intended – like white, periwinkle, pink, green, blue, purple and black, to give that extra va-va-voom to your Eye Dare You! glam. Created using a specially developed technology that produces a beginner-proof tip for ultra-seamless one-stroke application, the smudge-proof, humidity-proof and sebum-proof formula is enhanced by Italian Blueberry Extract and D-Panthenol for moisture and repair.
Italian Blueberry Extract actually runs through a lot of D&Gs new beauty products, due to its hydrating properties. Namely the Blueberry Nutri-Tint Hydra-glow & Fresh Skin Tint, a buildable complexion product that gives a seamless, healthy glow, and comes in 30 inclusive shades. It’s enough to make you forget all about your old foundations. Enhance the look with the sensual new K&Q Eau de Parfum Intense for him and her, concocted by Daphne Bugey and Nathalie Lorson.
If living loud isn’t quite your style, there’s a plethora of other, more day-to-day options to choose from. The Fresh Look incorporates a Bergamot Glow Primer Lasting Makeup & Glow Enhancer, Blueberry Nutri-Tint Hydra-glow & Fresh Skin Tint and Fig Skin Perfector Shine Control Blurring Powder for an ‘I woke up this way’ kind of glow and it goes great with D&G’s ambrosial Light Blue Summer Vibes fragrance by Olivier Cresp and Alberto Morillas (Pour Homme). The versatile and elegant Classic Look brings together the Cheeks & Eyes Match Lasting Blush & Eyeshadow Powder with the Face & Eyes Match Lasting Bronzer & Eyeshadow Powder, both of which are great for a clean, everyday appearance, especially when paired with the juicy new Dolce Blue Jasmine Eau De Parfum by perfumer Alexandra Carlin, which will make your mouth water.
The final suggested cosmetic combination is the Flawless Look, which builds upon D&G’s high-voltage beauty launch from last year. Proposing the Everlift Luminizer with the Everkiss Liquid Lip and Everfull XL Mascara, you can be bold without veering away from classics.
Whatever suits you, there are infinite makeup combinations to play around with here, for every mood and occasion be it basking in the summer sun or hip-swinging down at the discotheque. Either way, inspired by the codes that have shaped the identity of Dolce & Gabbana, it’s an extensive beauty line-up for living la dolce vita!
