The rose beauty edit: Summer Fridays, 79 Lux, Chanel, Acqua di Parma, Ostens, Floris

Andy Warhol rose

Spring is in the air, which means it’s time for the annual rose beauty roundup. I really like subtle rose fragrances in skincare and slightly stronger ones in my body oils and potions. There are studies that show rose oil can have numerous therapeutic effects, from analgesic to physiological; for me it’s definitely up there with lavender as a calming, comforting scent.

Eye candy for your lips

Rodin X Vanessa Traina

Lipstick boxes daubed with painterly flowers are a thing. I’m loving the look of this Rodin X Vanessa Traina collab, although I’ve never tried Rodin’s lip products. Are they good? I like the idea of the lip and cheek oils (below), which I imagine give a barely-there stain, and they’re packed with safflower seed and sunflower seed oils so even though it says it’s a matte finish, they shouldn’t be drying. Buy them at Liberty and The Line.

1/ JASMINE ON MY MIND Fragrance and skincare-wise, everything seems to be infused with jasmine right now. (more…)

Buy it now: Aerin Rose Night Table Cream & Overnight Mask

One for rose-o-philes (I bet there really is a word for that). This has just arrived on counter from Aerin, a nourishing, radiance-boosting rose cream that doubles as an overnight mask. Aerin Rose Night Table Cream & Overnight Mask (£60) sounds great for autumn-winter skin TLC and I love the comforting, old fashioned name. Time to make room on your vanity trays!
