It was such a pleasure to do an interview last wee It was such a pleasure to do an interview last week with Vita Magazine editor-in-chief Noa Nichol. I could tell she holds a Master’s degree in Journalism from Toronto Metropolitan University from the questions she asked: smart, interesting and well-researched. For so many years, the world of perfumery was shrouded in mystery. The inner workings of perfume houses was a well-kept secret. It was so fun to talk about trends, where fragrance trends come from and where the industry is going. You can read the interview in the link in bio. And be sure to check out @vitadailymedia #davelackiebeauty #fragranceinterview #fragrancetrends
British niche perfume brand Atkinsons is composing British niche perfume brand Atkinsons is composing some truly fascinating fragrances under its ‘Reserve Collection’ umbrella. Mystic Moonlight is the next edition and it is an amber-woody fragrance for her or him created by perfumer Jordi Fernandez. It opens with coconut, tropical fruits and ginger for a fruity-spicy first impression. These notes are balanced by oud, cedarwood, cypriol and cistus. Tonka bean and ambrofix shape the base, giving the fragrance a warm, woody-amber character. These Atkinsons fragrances don’t smell like anything else on the market which is perfect if you are looking for some unique and special. #davelackiebeauty
I heard rumours a year ago that there was a new On I heard rumours a year ago that there was a new One  Million edition in development that was really good. And they weren’t wrong. One Million Night Elixir has just arrived in stores and online and it truly lives up to the hype. I love that there is a Canadian angle to this edition: maple syrup! Perfumers Christophe Raynaud and Quentin Bisch composed this scent using a sweet maple syrup note that adds an addictive quality to the fragrance. It’s blended with mandarin, bergamot, lemon, cinnamon and lavender with vanilla, benzoin and labdanum. I’d describe it as a citrus-amber-gourmand eau de parfum. You’ll notice this is the first time that the iconic gold bar flacon is dressed in black. Definitely worth checking out. #davelackiebeauty #rabanneonemillion #nightelixir #mensfragrance
French fashion brand Nina Ricci has just launched French fashion brand Nina Ricci has just launched an edition of Nina that is so delicious you’ll want to eat it. Named Nina Eau de Parfum, this floral-gourmand fragrance for her is built around an ultra-creamy pistachio accord. It’s blended with a tangy bergamot jelly, lush gardenia and a vanilla-sandalwood that is sweet and smooth. It’s truly addictive. #davelackiebeauty #ninaeaudeparfum #pistachiofragrance

Celebrity makeup artist Pat McGrath is the genius Celebrity makeup artist Pat McGrath is the genius behind the Louis Vuitton Beauty collection, an ultra-premium selection of makeup for the lips, eyes, cheeks and complexion. The LV Ombres Eyeshadow Palette in shade 350 “Dazzling Gaze” is a true work of art. The soft, hydrating formula blends seamlessly into skin promising 12-hour wear.  From soft ballerina pink to sparkling golden rose, each shade is designed to illuminate the eyes. And while the colours are elegant, it is the compact that is a showstopper. Crafted from refined materials with metallic accents, the four shadows are shaped as vibrant petals resembling the brand’s Monogram Flower. Inspired by Louis Vuitton’s lock-making heritage, an innovative system allows the shades to be refilled individually. You can even have the case monogrammed. This is luxury beauty at its finest. #davelackiebeauty
As someone who has had basal cell carcinoma skin c As someone who has had basal cell carcinoma skin cancer, I can tell you firsthand there is no such thing as a ‘safe tan’. That is why I encourage everyone to wear good quality sunscreen every day and if you want that sun-kissed summer glow, dust on a bronzing powder. The bronzers today look so natural that you will be hard-pressed to tell the difference from a natural tan. YSL’s All Hours 24H Hyper Sunkissed Glow Bronzer Powder is a silky-soft bronzer with subtle shimmer that promised a healthy-looking glow for up to 24 hours. Even better is the packaging. The couture clutch and embossed design on the powder is truly breathtaking. #davelackiebeauty
