In celebration of the first anniversary of The Makeup, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana present us with this exquisite lip collection, which features five sensual shades ($30 each) magnificently scented with Sicilian rose that represent the heart and soul of the brand. The collection is made up of 1 cream shade, Scarlett (dedicated with love and admiration for The Designers’ longtime muse Scarlett Johansson, who epitomizes femininity and glamour at its most pure, most provocative and primal), is a cool blue-red, as well as 4 shine lip stick shades: Shine On (apricot-gold), Magnifica (mauve-red), Baby Darling (pale pink), and Fascination (delicate deep pink). Get one -- or all -- of these exquisite lip sticks at D&G counters in February.
The Roses Lipstick Collection, a collection of five new lipsticks, is a celebration of lip colour as the star product and essential heart and sensual soul of the Dolce & Gabbana The Make Up. It is a tribute to the most singular of flowers, the rose, and the forever fundamental inspiration of all that is-and has always been-Dolce & Gabbana. This collection explores the primal lure of lipstick: the essence of sensuality as both an intimately private and a disarmingly public gesture.“To me, lips are a woman’s most evocative feature; they are the focus of her femininity, the key to her innermost being. The shades she wears must capture her many moods,” says Domenico Dolce, “since the rose has always been an icon to us, representing deep womanly sensuality in full bloom, it seemed natural that it served equally as inspiration in our quest for the perfect collection of lipsticks.”“We also wanted to emphasize the act of applying lipstick, which should be the most luxurious and most intimate of beauty rituals, so finding the perfect rose scent was crucial,” says Stefano Gabbana, “as the design of the lipstick as an object of absolute beauty too, is essential.”
