MARIO MAKES HIS OWN MAKEUP
One of the most sought-after makeup artists with an endless celebrity clientele, Mario Dedivanovic is famous for his live Masterclass, as well as being the go-to makeup artist for Kim Kardashian for over 12 years. This month he announced his latest venture: his very own beauty brand.

UPGRADE TO UPCIRCLE
We love an indie brand, and UpCircle is the latest one on our radar, notable for using rescued natural ingredients and transforming them into quality skincare products. Their latest launch is a body cream with a calm blend of ingredients including shea butter, linseed and olive oil.
SMART SKIN
Influencer Niomi Smart has often been vocal about her conscious lifestyle, which has manifested in the launch of her debut skincare line, Smart Skin. Sustainable, luxurious yet affordable, the range is inspired by a community of strong, empowered women from Niomi’s own audience.
