Dior has created the signature nail polish colour

Dior has created the signature nail polish colour for spring/summer 2026. It’s called ‘Sunset’ and it is a warm bronzed-sandy shade that was actually inspired by an iconic fashion piece by the House of Dior. The nail colour formula is infused with extracts of peony and an extract of pistachio to nourish nails. It promises a glossy finish and a gel effect hold. #davelackiebeauty

Fans of Clarins’ award-winning Extra-Firming Cream

Fans of Clarins’ award-winning Extra-Firming Cream will be excited to learn there is a new formulation that contains SPF 15 while maintaining the fresh, light, non-sticky texture. This is actually really difficult to do in the labs. SPF is notoriously challenging to work with in skincare formulation when trying to create a light texture. Clarins has achieved it. This cream works to re-densify the skin, smooths wrinkles, evens out the complexion and deeply hydrates. What makes it extra special is it reduces the effects of hormonal changes related to age, particularly those in menopause thanks to organic harungana extract and organic gorse. These plant extracts have been proven to effectively address all these concerns. Just remember with a product like this to use it daily and give it time to show best results. You’ll want to give it eight weeks of daily use to really work its magic. #davelackiebeauty @clarinscanada #clarins #skincare

Such a great discussion this morning with @annette

Such a great discussion this morning with @annette.hamm about sensitive skin. Here's some helpful info:

Sensitive skin is the occurrence of unpleasant skin reactions in response to stimuli that normally should not provoke these sensations. Hyper-reactive skin can cause sensations like burning, stinging, tingling, itching, prickling sensations or tightness, often accompanied by redness, inflammation or dryness. Sensitive skin is caused by weakened skin barrier that allows irritants to enter and moisture to escape. The skin condition is frequently triggered by cosmetics, sun exposure, environmental factors (heat/cold) and stress.

If you suffer from sensitive skin, try these tips:
Moisturize: sensitive skin can often be caused by dryness, which reduces the skin’s ability to deal with external factors. Hydrating your skin well can give it more ability to deal with sensitivity by supporting the skin barrier.
Use minimal products with fewer ingredients
Patch test: always test a new product on a small area
Ask a pharmacist if you have a question about any ingredients in a product
Avoid irritants: choose fragrance-free and hypoallergenic formulas
Strengthen skin barrier: use hydrating, gentle products to repair the skin’s protective layer

Here is what skincare testing terms mean:
Hypoallegernic – means a product is designed to cause fewer allergic reactions compared to others.
Allergy tested – a diagnostic procedure, usually a skin prick, patch or blood test, used to identify specific substances (allergens) that cause immune system reaction
Ophthalmologist tested – means a cosmetic product has been evaluated by a medical eye doctor to ensure it is safe, non-irritating and compatible with the delicate eye area.
Fragrance free – means the product does not contain added scents, whether synthetic or natural (like essential oils)
Non-comedogenic – means the skincare product is specially formulated not to cause blocked pores.
Dermatologist tested – means a product was tested on human skin under the supervision of a dermatologist to check for potential irritation, allergy or safety issues. #davelackiebeauty #sensitiveskin

Hermes Beauty has quietly unveiled one of the most

Hermes Beauty has quietly unveiled one of the most beautiful summer-themed makeup palettes of 2026. It’s a limited edition piece called the Sunkissed Healthy Glow Powder Face and Cheeks. It was designed by Creative Director Gregoris Pyrpylis who draws inspiration from the shifting, flamboyant colors of a sunset – from a scorching day to a balmy night. The luxurious powders warm and illuminate the complexion with a subtle, faintly gold shimmer. Made in Italy. Beautiful! #davelackiebeauty
