Define True Elegance With Domina

A compelling perfume goes beyond being just an extract; it becomes a signature. It has the power to captivate, leaving an unforgettable impression. The House of Victor is thrilled to announce the launch of ‘Domina’ – an exquisite fragrance that embodies sophistication, allure, and the true essence of their wearers.

The Domina fragrance is a scintillating blend of the finest bergamot, hypnotic lychee, and the highly susceptible influence of peach. The exceptional jasmine, peony, and orange blossom create an intoxicating floral bouquet, while modern woody notes, moss, and musk add an intimate touch to this alluring scent – a true one for the graceful enchantress. Just as fragrances bloom in different ways, our choice of scent defines us. Whether light and delicate or complex and intense, Domina allows you to express your true self. Let the heavenly joy of Domina’s luscious floral whirlwind embrace you. Available at thehouseofvictor.com.

Fight Acne With Minimalist

Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, and it can have a significant impact on a person’s self-esteem and overall wellbeing. No one wants acne but anyone can get it, especially during summer when excessive sweating, increased oil production, and exposure to UV radiation are common. Recognising the need for reliable and science-backed solutions, Minimalist has invested extensive research and expertise in creating a line of products that target acne while providing gentle yet potent care.

We love the Anti-Acne Kit which is a Cleanse, Treat and Moisturise combo for clearing acne and blemishes. Salicylic + LHA cleanser gently cleanses and provides multi-level exfoliation; Salicylic Acid serum treats your skin overnight while Vitamin B5 moisturizer nourishes and soothes your skin.

What sets Minimalist’s acne care line apart is its focus on simplicity and effectiveness. The brand ensures that its products contain only essential active ingredients, eliminating unnecessary additives and potential irritants. This philosophy allows individuals to achieve clearer, healthier skin during the summer and year-round without overwhelming their skincare routine.

Majestic Nudes For All

Since 2014 Christian Louboutin Beauty launched magic-sprinkled collections for lips, eyes, nails and fragrances. So naturally, with temperatures soaring we thought to discover one of the hottest beauty products that you’ll grow to love this season - Teint Fétiche La Poudre. Your complexion will receive Louboutin’s magic with this splendid “poudre” which is available in nine stunning nude shades from dark brown to pale pink. According to Christian Louboutin: “Nude is not a colour, it is a concept”. In keeping with this statement, the versatile powder is fine and weightless, unbelievably soft and smooth. It enhances skin’s luminosity and brings a radiant lumi-matte glow. Silicone oils make it blendable and easy to apply, melting imperceptibly with the skin. But most extraordinary of all is the star ingredient, precious ruby powder, known for its energising and detoxifying proprieties.

This buildable powder is just what you need this summer to achieve a healthy-looking adjustable coverage that allows your skin to breath, doesn’t cake up and truly lasts throughout the day.
