    Guerlain is back with another Exceptional Art Piec Guerlain is back with another Exceptional Art Piece for holiday 2025. These are rare, numbered limited edition bottles crafted by some of the world’s finest artists. This month sees the arrival of The Bee Bottle by Geraldine Gonzalez 2025, a breathtakingly beautiful flacon inspired by the exuberance of the Baroque movement. The French sculptor, known as the ‘sculptress of the light’, selects materials that reflect or allow light to pass through – metal, mother-of-pearl, crystal, sequins and paper.

The Bee Bottle is set on a sumptuous crescent moon adorned with glass and crystal pearls, and set off by three stars gilded in fine gold. It has an almost incandescent dimension, enhanced by the mirrored base. “Inspiration often comes from my dreams,” says Gonzalez. “From wonder, from light, and from the night. The bee bottle is an endless source of inspiration for me, and I have captured the very essence of my vision in this luminous sculpture.” There are only 64 available worldwide. They are available on the brand’s website. #davelackiebeauty #perfumebottle
    When I landed my first job as a public relations a When I landed my first job as a public relations and special events coordinator at Hudson’s Bay’s flagship store in Toronto, I helped organize the personal appearances and fashion shows for a wide range of fashion designers and artists. The projects always started months in advance with a big meeting in the executive boardroom. The designers’ management team would arrive with a list of requirements that could be extensive. (yes, one celeb insisted on a bowl of blue Smarties in her green room.) So when the conversation turned to the host of the appearance, there was only one name that mattered: @thejeannebeker Every single executive and brand knew her from her work on Fashion Television. She was the only one they wanted. And Jeanne was always a true pro at these events. It was nice to see her recently at the Estee Lauder Companies’ Breast Cancer Campaign Dinner at the Windsor Arms. #davelackiebeauty #jeannebeker
    If you ever visit the head office of a global beau If you ever visit the head office of a global beauty brand, don’t be surprised if you see a stack of Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue magazines somewhere in the building. That’s because some of the makeup and fragrance products created during the 1940s in particular are still cutting-edge today. Take Jacqueline Cochran’s ‘Perk-Up Stick’. It’s a series of interlocking tubes that contain everything you need to create a beauty look on-the-go. From cleansing cream to foundation to lip colour, this one product has it all. This is a product that you could easily see at Sephora today. Small travel-sized products that slip into your bag. 

Jacqueline Cochran Cosmetics, launched in 1935 as ‘Wings to Beauty’, was a pioneering luxury makeup line by famous aviator Jacqueline Cochran, blending her aviation lifestyle with glamorous, portable beauty products. Her unique ‘Perk Up’ cylinder and moisturizers for flight-dry skin, became a major competitor to Estee Lauder in the 1950s. So clever. #davelackiebeauty
    With anticipation building for the new season of B With anticipation building for the new season of Bridgerton coming soon, I thought I would thank my amazing followers with this very special giveaway on Instagram. It’s a collector Pat McGrath Labs x Bridgerton Blushing Delights Blush and Highlighter Set. It contains a highlighter, Illuminator and two blushes. The packaging design is beyond decadent. I had the honour of meeting Pat McGrath years ago backstage at an Anna Suit fashion show in New York City. She is so knowledgeable and talented. I watched her direct an entire room of makeup artists who were making up dozens of models. So impressive.

    Celebrating Clinique HAPPY DAY at @shoppers_thebea Celebrating Clinique HAPPY DAY at @shoppers_thebeaches today. So much fun planned for fans of this award-winning citrus-floral fragrance for her. The joyful perfume blends notes of ruby grapefruit, bergamot citrus, Hawaiian wedding flower and spring mimosa. (97% of people who smell Happy say it does make them feel joyful and happy.)

I bought a Happy gift set for my neighbour (who is always happy) and got 30% off. Plus I got a 3-piece gift-with-purchase and a scratch and win card where I won a Clinique bag charm.  It’s a great day to shop if you have Clinique on your holiday shopping list. The SDM beauty team are really nice in this store. I’m sure it is going to be a great event day. @shoppersbeauty @cliniquecanada #davelackiebeauty #cliniquecanada #happyperfume
    Years ago, I had the pleasure of working with Ital Years ago, I had the pleasure of working with Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani’s team in Milan on menswear projects. I can tell you from experience that Mr. Armani was the ultimate perfectionist and a true artist. I watched him send back prototypes again and again until they were perfect. (His passing this year leaves a big hole in the global fashion landscape.) He did the same with every single makeup formula, fragrance composition and skincare concept. That’s why the quality of his beauty products is so high. One of the best ways to discover his makeup and fragrance is through his annual Beauty Advent Calendar. The 2025 calendar features 8 full-size products, 15 travel-size items and a surprise gift – all in a glistening silver and red gift box. At Holts in Canada. #davelackiebeauty
