AT HOME MANI STILL REIGNS

Peacći launches

Gel nails have dominated not only the LiB office, but the general nail market for years. That being said, the at-home mani still has a place in the hearts of many beauty lovers worldwide, which has influenced the launch of high-tech polish brand, Peacći. From the founder of world renowned professional polish, The GelBottle Inc, the new brand will deliver a huge range of 100% vegan and cruelty free creative hues – 150 to be exact – with long-lasting results that won’t negatively impact the strength and health of the nail. The new polish brand will be available from July.

DISCOVER YOUR CITY

Jo-Malone-City-Candles
Jo Malone London (one of my favourite fragrance brands, may I add) has announced the launch of its City Editions, eight signature candles embodying the scents of various cities around the world. Each candle is printed with a hand-sketched illustration inspured by the angles, edges and idiosyncrasies that make each city unique. The collection includes: London Edition (Pomegranate Noir), Paris Edition (Velvet Rose & Oud), Dubai Edition (Myrrh & Tonka), Hong Kong Edition (Peony & Blush Suede), Shanghai Edition (Wild Bluebell), Seoul Edition (Blackberry & Bay), Tokyo Edition (English Pear & Freesia) and New York Edition (Lime Basil & Mandarin). Exclusive to Jo Malone boutiques within the city it was created for, and at the online boutique for that region.
