Situated in Antibes along the coastline of the French Riviera, Dior has unveiled a dreamy new destination spa inside the iconic Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc. A recent hotspot, you may also recognize this historic hotel as the site of the lavish Sofia Richie Grainge wedding that took place last month (we’re still not over it!). Nestled beneath Aleppo pine trees in the Cap-Eden-Roc gardens, there is a lush selection of sensorial experiences available at this Dior spa where treatment rooms overlook a century-old rose garden once dedicated to Queen Elizabeth II. Here, some of these lavish offerings include Hydrafacial powered treatments and four new customizable signature wellness rituals titled “Dioriginels” inspired by the four elements. From soothing stone massages to hydrotherapy treatments that ease muscular aches and pains, the brand is honing in on its holistic view of wellness and beauty. What’s more, an exclusive “Riviera Solar Glow” treatment that uses products from the Dior Solar range to help treat and protect the skin from sun exposure also awaits. Ooh, la la!
Beyoncé teases a hair brand
Attention Beyhive, this is not a drill! This week, Queen Bey took to Instagram to drop an exciting teaser that is bound to shake up the beauty industry. The first slide of her post shows Beyoncé curling her hair in glam, and the second is a throwback shot of young Bey in a salon chair with a fresh set of braids. “How many of y’all knew my first job was sweeping hair in my Mama’s salon?” reads a digital note in the third slide of her post. Bey further explains that her former band, Destiny’s Child, first got its start performing for clients while they got their hair done. It was in the salon, she shares, where she was exposed to entrepreneurial women of all sorts and witnessed the impact that nurturing and celebrating our hair can have on our souls. “Having learned so much on my hair journey, I’ve always dreamed of carrying on her legacy. I can’t wait for you to experience what I’ve created,” she writes and signs off with a heart and a capital ‘B.’ Haircare? Wigs? Hair tools? Whatever it is, we’re ready for it. And if her current blonde mane moments on her Renaissance world tour are any indication — we’re already sold.

Nothing makes a makeup statement quite like a bold lip — and Beautycounter just dropped a collection full of lipsticks that’ll do just that. Developed in collaboration with celebrity makeup artist Christy Coleman, the newly launched Statement Maker Satin Lipsticks come in 14 highly pigmented shades from subdued nudes to vibrant hues sure to make their mark. Each lipstick is formulated with nourishing açai oils, shea, mango butter and plant-based waxes that leave lips as soft as they are pigmented. Housed in post-consumer recycled packaging, this angled lipstick tube also doubles as a lip liner when flipped over.
Serumize debuts a new line of products

Founded by Elizabeth Shabi, a certified medical aesthetician and former senior chemist, Serumize is a beauty brand that truly understands the inner workings of skincare. Aiming to bridge the gap between prescribed skincare treatments and daily skincare products, this Canadian label offers up formulas that go skin-deep to target skincare concerns — so you get the best results. And the proof is in its latest launches. While the Clear Fight Oil-free Moisturizer is a remedy for acne-prone skin that unclogs pores while leaving skin hydrated, the Peptide Quench Hydrating Moisturizer harnesses the power of hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and aloe to combat super dry skin. What’s more, another addition to the Clear Fight line comes by way of a daily foaming cleanser that removes pore-clogging debris and makeup dubbed the Clear Fight Clarifying Facial Cleanser. Talk about spoiled for choice!
