Have you ever wondered why swiping on lipstick or dabbing a bit of blush can instantly lift your mood? Cosmetics aren’t just about looking good—they affect how we feel, how we behave, and how we interact with the world.

For years, makeup dominated the beauty industry. But today, there’s a noticeable shift—consumers are more invested in skincare than ever before. The global conversation is changing from "how to cover imperfections" to "how to nourish and protect your skin." And that’s a beautiful thing.

In a world where first impressions often matter, cosmetics have become more than just tools for beauty—they are powerful expressions of identity, confidence, and creativity. Whether it’s a subtle touch of lip balm or a bold red lipstick, cosmetics allow individuals to enhance their natural features and embrace who they truly are.

In just over a decade, K-Beauty has transformed from a niche curiosity into a global beauty powerhouse. From Seoul to New York, Korean skincare and makeup products are flying off the shelves—and for good reason.

In the age of TikTok trends and Instagram filters, cosmetics are no longer just sold—they’re experienced, shared, and influenced in real time. The beauty industry is undergoing a massive transformation, and at the heart of it all is social media.

Frederique Constant has released a special edition of its Classic Tourbillon model featuring a precious aventurine dial. Limited to only 36 pieces, the Classic Tourbillon Manufacture with aventurine dial comes in a polished 39 mm x 11 mm case crafted from 18kt white gold and is water resistant up to 3 ATM (30 metres / 100 feet).

Frederique Constant has released two new limited editions in its Vintage Rally Healey collection, celebrating over two decades of partnership with the legendary British carmaker Austin Healey. The watchmaker has long been a key sponsor of numerous events and gatherings organised by Healey clubs around the world. Each model is limited to 1,888 pieces and features a metallic blue dial inspired by the iconic Austin-Healey 3000 MKII BM7.

Breguet continues the celebrations for its 250th anniversary – marking the founding of the brand by Abraham-Louis Breguet in 1775 – with the introduction of the new Type XX Chronographe 2075, available in two versions, both distinguished by their smaller diameter and hand-wound movement. Unveiled in New York, this chronograph draws inspiration from a 1955 model. The launch follows previous commemorative releases in Paris, with the Classique Souscription 2025, and in Shanghai, with the Tradition Seconde Rétrograde 7035.

The new Overseas Grand Complication Openface marks the debut of a minute repeater in Vacheron Constantin’s sport-chic Overseas collection.

Presented in a 44.5 mm by 13.1 mm case made of Grade 5 titanium, the watch also incorporates a perpetual calendar, a tourbillon, and a power reserve indicator. This combination of complications makes it the most sophisticated timepiece in the collection.

Born in Draguignan, France, in 1951, Richard Mille entered the watch industry in 1974 and rose to key leadership roles, including managing director of Mauboussin’s watch division. In 2001, he launched his first timepiece, introducing a radical new approach to watchmaking. Inspired by Formula 1 and aerospace, he set out to apply cutting-edge materials and engineering techniques to high-end horology.
