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

Father’s Day is the second biggest occasion of the Father’s Day is the second biggest occasion of the year for men’s fragrance sales.
The global fragrance market hit $80 billion in annual sales in 2025, up 8.8% year-over-year according to industry tracker Euromonitor. And the men’s market continues to drive massive sales thanks to GenZ consumers.

I appeared on Morning Live with @rickzamperin to discuss the  five most noteworthy men’s scents for Father’s Day 2026.

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Pour Homme Eau de Parfum, 100 ml, $187
First launched in 2007 as an eau de toilette scent for men, this citrus aromatic became a global sensation winning a FiFi Award in 2008 as Men’s Luxe Fragrance Launch of the Year. This month sees Master Perfumer Alberto Morillas return with a stronger and longer-lasting eau de parfum version. This golden, luminous citrus-woody scent layers Calabrian Yellow Mandarin, Seawater Cypress and Cedarwood. 

Narciso Rodriguez For Him Musc Santal Eau de Parfum Intense, 100 ml, $179
This refined woody-floral-musk fragrance for him layers notes of clary sage, juniper berry, musk, cedarwood and sandalwood. It was composed by perfumer Florian Gallo. It’s built around a contrast of smooth woods, aromatic nuances and soft musk. 

Rabanne One Million Night Elixir, 100 ml, $195
One Million Night Elixir is an amber-woody fragrance for him that blends notes of maple syrup, mandarin, bergamot, lemon, vanilla, labdanum, benzoin and a hint of cinnamon. The iconic gold bar bottle comes dressed in black for the first time. It has an addictive quality.

Burberry Hero Elixir de Parfum, 60 ml, $225
This intense, long-lasting addition to the Burberry Hero family, balances soft sweet notes with deep, strong accords. The Elixir de Parfum combines notes of tonka, vanilla, robust leather and a vibrant trio of cedarwood. The bottle boasts a deep amber hue. 

Emporio Armani Stronger With You Powerfully, 100 ml, $175
This ultra long-lasting amber-vanilla fragrance for him blends notes of cherry, mandarin orange, spices, lavender, chestnut, vanilla and amberwood. This is a sweet and slightly spice scent that balances a fruity juiciness with a hint of spice and warm gourmand facets. #davelackiebeauty

Here is the brand NEW Issey Miyake fragrance launc Here is the brand NEW Issey Miyake fragrance launches across the country this week. It’s called L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme Essentielle and it is a fresh woody-aromatic fragrance for him that blends notes of mandarin orange, ginger, lavender and nutmeg – all over a base of smooth guaiac wood. There is an aromatic and effervescent character to this men’s scent that gives it character. And the guaiac wood has a resinous, mineral density. The water green caps are actually crafted exclusively from a single block of wood, entirely free from plastic inserts. Each piece is inherently unique. Even better, 91% of the ingredients are sourced from natural origin sources. #davelackiebeauty
New York fashion designer Marc Jacobs and his new New York fashion designer Marc Jacobs and his new beauty licensee Coty have quietly been working on the relaunch of Marc Jacobs Beauty for a full three years. The previous collection created in partnership with LVMH was a global success at Sephora. But when Coty saw an opportunity to take over the partnership, they jumped at it. (Coty produces and markets Marc’s fragrances.) They started from scratch. None of the previous products or formulations were used. The team started from the beginning following Marc’s vision for modern beauty, an inclusive, joyful universe. 

The collection launched online at Sephora this week and not surprisingly some items are already sold out. It’s an incredibly good collection with eye-popping packaging that is as fun to look at as it is to use. The stars, daisies and hearts bring to mind Jeff Koombs’ pop art sculptures. The liners, mascara and blush sticks are expected to be bestsellers. But there is another product trending already: Born Star Eyeshadow. Housed in mint green metallic star compacts are 14 shades in matte, metallic and duo chrome finishes. Crease-free and humidity-proof for up to 14 hours, these cream-to-powder shadows are beautifully done. #davelackiebeauty #marcjacobsbeauty #bornstareyeshadow
