Elaborate beauty products feature precious ingredients and artistic packaging
Precious ingredients and elaborate packaging make these top-notch products stand out
Today’s beauty products are filled with precious materials, from diamond dust to gold flakes and dragon’s blood. The luxuriousness and exclusivity are now also evident in the extraordinary packaging – some beauty products are almost like objets d’art. We’ve selected a series of elaborate and special beauty choices for the sophisticated woman.
CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN LIPSTICK
The master shoemaker ventures into the universe of beauty and cosmetics with aesthetically striking products. Following the debut of the nail polish inspired by the brand’s super-tall Ballerina Ultima shoe, Louboutin has also released a lipstick series, Rouge Louboutin, inspired by Babylonian architecture, art deco and Middle Eastern antiquities. Available in three finishes – silky satin, velvet matte and sheer voile – the lipstick can also be worn as a pendant. Priced at HK$800, the lipstick comes in colours inspired by iconic Louboutin shoes and bags.
LA PRAIRIE BACCARAT CRYSTAL BOWL
Limited to only 1,500 jars, the La Prairie Caviar Spectaculaire sets you back a good HK$19,150 for 75ml of the brand’s lifting and firming Skin Caviar Luxe Cream. In collaboration with luxury crystal maker Baccarat, Swiss beauty brand La Prairie takes the luxury level up a notch for its signature cream. The shape of the crystal jar is inspired by Baccarat’s iconic Harcourt 1841 hexagonal design. The crystal facets reflect light perfectly.
