The Beauty List: 9 Cabinet Classics To Buy This Season
Just as every iconic outfit relies on perfect foundational pieces – the crisp white shirt, the tailored blazer, the gold necklace – so does every great beauty routine. Consider this your curated capsule collection: nine investment-worthy essentials that work as hard as your favourite wardrobe staples.
The LBD
A fragrance so versatile, it pairs with every outfit in your arsenal. Understated, elegant, and eternally chic, it’s the final, unforgettable accessory. Spicy, floral, and oh-so-addictive, it blends notes of Turkish rose, cinnamon, patchouli, and sandalwood for the ultimate timeless classic.
The White Shirt
Every wardrobe needs a crisp white shirt – and every beauty routine needs this exfoliator. Prepping skin to be as fresh and polished as a new-season staple, it helps you achieve that fresh canvas for any look. Bamboo microparticles buff away dullness, while vitamin B3 and peach blossom boost brightness.
The Silk Scarf
Add a touch of elegance and warmth with this blusher that sweeps on a soft, luminous flush. The perfect accent to brighten your complexion with a hint of natural radiance, its
hand-whipped, baked formula melts into skin for an effortless, lightweight pop of colour.
The Couture Gown
A power pout so dazzling, it’s the beauty equivalent of a show-stopping gown. This luminous matte lipstick drapes lips in pure, concentrated pigment for intense colour that wears like a second skin – all in the chicest of bullets.
The Stiletto Heel
This mascara’s ultra-fine brush lifts and defines each lash like a perfectly pointed heel elongates a silhouette with stiletto-sharp precision. The result? Instant length and volume for wide-awake eyes and the perfect flutter.
The Power Suit
Command attention with a base that offers impeccable coverage and longevity. This high-performance foundation is your confidence booster, ensuring your complexion remains flawless and radiant from morning meetings to evening events thanks to active skincare water and argan oil.
The Cashmere Cardigan
Indulge your skin with luxurious comfort and a radiant glow. This face oil from La Mer deeply nourishes with its powerhouse Miracle Broth complex and sea-sourced nutrients, leaving your complexion supple and luminous, perfect for that soft-focus finish.
The Tailored Blazer
You need structure? This brow gel sharpens your architecture with precision, serving just the right amount of definition. The mousse-gel formula is a sartorial secret: high-pigment for that ‘made-to-measure’ fullness, with flexible hold that keeps its shape all day long.
The Gold Necklace
Like that glittering chain you never take off, this couture highlighter adds just the right amount of glow, day into night. The creamy-powder hybrid melts into skin with the ease of liquid gold, leaving a multi-dimensional radiance that catches light (never glitter) for 12 flawless hours.
