Crafted using 3D technology and powered by the brand’s patented Miracle Broth, this lightweight yet deeply nourishing cream targets inflammatory irritants and oxidative stress at its source.

Oribe: Gold Lust Dry Heat Protection Spray
Oribe’s Gold Lust Dry Heat Protection Spray is the latest addition to the brand’s highly coveted Gold Lust line. As the first dry spray of its kind, it comprises a bio-restorative complex, brassica oil copolymer, coconut water, marine algae extract and macadamia oil. When used on dry hair, the formula shields strands from temperatures up to 232°C while also intensely nourishing to restore softness and is suitable for all hair types. A true multi-tasker, the dry spray also tames frizz and flyaways, and conditions with each use. For those with frequently heat-styled hair that’s seen better days, one spritz revives hair to a healthier, shinier state.

Diptyque: Do Son Voyage and Fleur de Cerisier
Embark on an olfactory journey to the coastal Vietnamese town of Do Son with Diptyque’s Do Son Voyage. A nod to founder Yves Coueslant’s childhood memories of Vietnam, the iconic Do Son fragrance transports the wearer to the rich landscapes that inspired its creations through its notes of tuberose, jasmine, and citrus. For this collection, Diptyque worked with craftsmen of the artisanal brand Hanoia to hand-weave rattan lids for packaging housing the limited edition Do Son perfume and the Tubéreuse candle.
Let spring florals blossom within the walls of your home just by lighting a candle — Diptyque’s seasonal limited edition Fleur de Cerisier (Cherry Blossom) candle, to be exact. Soft floral and fruity notes wrapped in musky warmth will transport you to a Japanese hanami where delicate pink blooms flutter on the breeze. Much like the cherry blossoms, this offering is ephemeral, available only until April 10, 2024.

Even better — the blend of lavender, sage leaf and cedarwood gives it a woody aroma that’ll have you looking forward to your skincare routine every day.
