BEAUTY BOOTY
All the latest beauty gear GLAM tried, tested and recommends.... FRAGRANCE THE PRODUCT: CH Garden Party from Carolina Herrera
SKINCARE
THE PRODUCT: Foundation line-up from Sensai A “perfect illuminated bronze look” is like a perfect vacation: a rare, luxurious and deeply gratifying experience, but that requires effort and discipline to achieve, and extra-tender care to perpetuate. Get the total bronze effect with Sensai’s two new additions to its foundation line-up; the Sensai Bronzing Gel and Sensai Bronzing Powder. They provide effective, refreshing hydration and lasting coverage – even in harsh and arid conditions – that they can justifiably be called “treatment makeup.” The secret lies in their unique Kasane (layering) approach. Like all Sensai foundation items, the new bronzers tenderly enfold the skin in layer upon layer of water and silk. A total refresher!

From Carolina Herrera, comes a light, delicate, feminine scent that is full of the charm and energy of the warmest seasons of the year. CH Garden Party contains refreshing top notes of citrus fruits, such as grapefruit, pineapple and lemon, giving way to middle notes full of floral touches such as jasmine and rose petals. The base notes provide a spicy, earthy touch, with sandalwood and cedar. The result is an easy-to-wear, highly feminine essence that appeals to all the senses.
Glam says: Get the whiff of a floral garden!
FRAGRANCE SKINCARE THE PRODUCT: DIORSNOW from Dior
Now, skin that is flawless, radiant and as transparent as a diamond is no distant dream. DIORSNOW from Dior, the diamond transparency you dream of is within reach. DIORSNOW pioneered a revolutionary global whitening approach and has for the first time, scientifically defined five fundamental physiological qualities of ideally transparent skin – evenness, luminosity, moisture, plumpness and fineness. The DIORSNOW D-NA REVERSE from the line, works in harmony with your skin’s night time rhythms, targeting the very heart of the cells to visibly minimise spots and maximise skin transparency while you sleep.
THE PRODUCT: Le Paradis de Nina
It’s intoxicating, romantic, daring and curious too! We’re talking of Le Paradis de Nina, a new scent with a delightful smell that draws inspiration from the delicious aroma of French Madeleine cake and of childhood happiness. Delicious and intoxicating, Le Paradis de Nina distils its magical essences. The fragrance is enriched with new ingredients, reminiscent of the flavour of little pleasures we believed were forgotten. Dive into the lively freshness of Le Paradis de Nina and allow yourself to be surprised by its floral notes, its elegant texture and its innovative sophistication.
