THE FRAGRANCE

Summer Fridays Sunlit Vanilla Eau de Parfum

Summer Fridays has stepped into fragrance for the very first time with a scent that leans warm, sweet and quietly addictive. Sunlit Vanilla blends bergamot with notes of caramel and coconut, settling into a creamy base of vanilla, tonka bean and amber. Comforting but still light enough for everyday wear, it has that soft, sun-warmed quality that lingers on the skin without ever feeling heavy.

THE TINTED MOISTURISER

Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Blurred Matte SPF 30

Laura Mercier has reworked its cult tinted moisturiser with a new blurred matte finish that still keeps skin looking like skin. The updated formula is lightweight, oil-free and infused with skincare ingredients, offering breathable, buildable coverage alongside long-lasting shine control and hydration. Designed to smooth pores without masking the complexion, it’s an easy, everyday base for those who want a more refined, shine-free finish.

THE DROP

Slip Sleep & Leisure Club

Slip’s latest drop gives its cult silk essentials a sportier, more directional update. The Sleep & Leisure Club collection brings rich green tones, heritage stripes and contrast detailing to its signature pillowcases, sleep masks and scrunchies, blending performance-led function with an elevated, off-duty aesthetic. Designed to support hair and skin overnight, these are the kind of everyday essentials that feel as good as they look.

THE BROW PENCIL

Anastasia Beverly Hills ArchiBrow Pencil

Anastasia Beverly Hills is taking precision brows one step further with a new ultra-fine pencil designed to mimic the look of microblading. Featuring a 0.5mm blade-like tip, ArchiBrow creates realistic, hair-like strokes for a naturally fuller, more defined finish without looking overdone. It is long-wearing, smudge-proof and easy to control.

THE EYE CREAM

Guerlain Abeille Royale Youth Repair Eye Care

Guerlain is expanding its Abeille Royale line with a new eye treatment designed to target the first visible signs of ageing where they show up fastest. The lightweight gel-cream formula combines honey-derived technology with hyaluronic acid to smooth, plump, and visibly lift the eye area, while helping reduce the look of fine lines, dark circles and puffiness.

THE HIGHLIGHTER

Hourglass Unreal Liquid Highlighter

Hourglass is expanding its complexion offering with a new liquid highlighter designed to deliver that lit-from-within finish without looking overly metallic. The serum-like formula melts into the skin, using ultra-fine light-reflecting pigments to create a smooth, second-skin glow that lasts all day. Hydrating and buildable, it can be worn subtly for daytime or layered up for something more luminous come evening.

THE COLLECTION

Huda Beauty Strawberry Latte Collection

Huda Beauty’s latest drop taps into the season’s obsession with soft, sculpted colour, pairing mauve-toned blush with milky, Y2K-inspired lips. The Strawberry Latte collection centres around a new Blush Filter palette, designed to layer matte and luminous finishes for a diffused, multidimensional flush, alongside two new liquid blush shades that melt seamlessly into the skin. Completing the look, a trio of high-shine glosses delivers that signature ‘lip concealer’ effect – think softly blurred cheeks and latte-toned lips with a modern, wearable edge.

THE BODY MISTS

PHLUR Berry Cream & Matcha Milk Fragrance Hair & Body Mists

PHLUR is expanding its body mist line with two new scents designed for easy, everyday layering. ‘Berry Cream’ leans toward fruitiness and soft sweetness, while ‘Matcha Milk’ brings a more grounded, creamy warmth with a subtle tea note. Lightweight and versatile, both can be worn alone or combined to create a more nuanced, ‘berry matcha latte’ effect – a fresher, more wearable take on gourmand fragrance. Available individually or as the Berry Matcha Duo at Sephora Middle East.
