Trait d'Hermès Le Courbe-Cils Eyelash Curler

“Start with Hermès Le Regard, the brand’s first-ever eye collection with a full shadow range, a set of colorful mascaras in shades like cherry brown, and an eyelash curler that looks nothing like a clampy torture device. Designed by the brand's beauty creative director, Gregoris Pyrpylis, the curler comes with three different silicon lash pad colors, including the signature orange, plus that very famous logo. Like all Hermès objects, it combines elegant form with function. Most eyelash curlers are black or dark colored, making it hard to see lashes against the band. Pyrpylis purposefully picked a light shade of brushed brass for this curler's base to ensure that the user won't miss a single, teeny, tiny lash. A special form of metal ensures just the right amount of grip so that you curl, not crimp lashes. ” —Kathleen Hou, Beauty Director

Nirvana Candle

“I always love having fresh scents around my house to brighten the space. This one has notes of prickly pear, bergamot, and vanilla, with hints of citrus.”—Tasha Nicole Smith, Beauty Assistant

Diorshow 5 Couleurs - Limited Edition

“The moonlit colors in this palette remind me of the legendary Dior ad with Rihanna running around dramatically at night in the Versailles Hall of Mirrors. I look forward to creating gleamy eye looks inspired by that mood.”—K.H.

Rouge Allure Laque Ultrawear Shine Liquid Lip Colour

“This dark, plummy shade makes me want to slick back my hair and pile on the dark eyeliner. Its name, Fancy Prune, a product of an unsexy French-to-English translation, also makes me smile.”—K.H

Rouge G Satin Lipstick

“I love the creamy, velvety texture of Guerlain’s Untamed Garnet color, and that it’s so deeply pigmented and lasts through almost two courses.”—K.H.

Billions Nail Artist Polish

“This polish in the shade Billions looks like liquid gold and will give you a luxurious, salon-worthy manicure.”—T.N.S.

2020 Candlestick

“Your very proper aunt may not love this statement candleholder on the table, but there’s no better wayto convey how you feel about the stress of the holiday season.”—K.H.

I Fragrance

“Healer Kira Lillie wants you to choose an essential oil scent blend based on whether you’re feeling ‘You,’ ‘I,’ or ‘We.’ Coming from a family of healers, Lillie developed these essential oil blends to be therapeutic for the soul and senses by working with Norwegian smell researcher Sissel Tolaas (who often works with Balenciaga designer Demna, and scented the brand's S/S 2020 show with a unique fragrance meant to evoke “power.”) I love that the scents—‘I’ features thyme, vetiver, and myrrh— can also be worn in this powerful-looking amulet necklace, designed by artist Samuel Reis.”—K.H.

Byredo Eroded Echo Mascara

“Sometimes the best way to finish off your bold eye is with big lashes. This mascara has a curved applicator to help you get super-voluminous, elongated ones.”—T.N.S.
