In our beauty trends of the month, we reveal which colors we paint on our faces, what we smell like and why our eyeliner is suddenly pointing in a different direction.
Hair Trend
Hydro Hair
If your bangs just won’t stay in place and neither a hair clip nor a brush can tame the strands, then a handful of hair gel is the last resort. Wild layered cuts don’t lose any of their coolness and stay exactly how we want them all day long. Our favorite advantage of the look? Because of all the gel, no one can see if it’s actually a hair wash day.
Darling
Soft
Nothing works without hand cream in every handbag, on the bedside table and in the office. And when the packaging looks as pretty as Buly’s Pommade Concrète, you can’t forget to apply the cream regularly. Thanks to the all-rounder shea butter, hands and feet stay soft all winter long.

We Love
Show your colors
If you’re brave, you set the next trend color yourself instead of watching what others do.
The muted, dark colors that dominate autumn don’t just make us yawn. Chanel also seems to have grown tired of the brown-grey mix. The new fall/winter make-up collection is all about lilac tones, which can be used to conjure up a striking look on and around the eyes. Combined with shimmering metallic nail polish and red-orange lip colors, the result is an explosion of color that brightens up the grayest rainy day.
Make-up trend
Upside Down
Cat eye with a difference: instead of drawing our winged line upwards, we go downwards. Only with black or glittery kohl, of course, because the steeper the wings point downwards, the more our mood is lifted.
New Perfume
Iconic
The name says it all, so there’s no need for a lavish design: Icon is the name of DSquared2 perfume in its chic black or white bottle. The fragrances work best as a duo, as they are intended to be a pair that harmonize perfectly despite being opposites. The women’s fragrance impresses with mandarin, white praline and acigala wood, while the men’s fragrance features blood orange, patchouli and lavender for beguiling moments.

Idol
Laced up
The wait for a new album from Rihanna is beginning to resemble an ultramarathon. But we like what
the singer is up to in the meantime at least as much as her music. With her label Savage x Fenty, she is ensuring diversity and inclusion in the lingerie world, where these criteria are otherwise all too often overlooked.
