Marc Jacobs' Heaven Collaborates with Starface, Available Today
The kings of collaboration—fashion line Heaven by Marc Jacobs and acne-positivity skincare brand Starface—have come together to create the alliance to end all alliances. In the past, Starface has tapped Hello Kitty, Sesame Street, and Glossier, and Heaven has joined forces with Anna Sui and Sofia Coppola (I'm still on the hunt for a Virgin Suicides skirt)—but this is the first fashion x beauty crossover.
'I have so much admiration for the Marc Jacobs legacy and Heaven's cultural impact,' Julie Schott, the co-founder of Starface, says. 'Over the years, Starface has shown up organically in that world, whether it was on the Heaven couch or on friends at parties or in the store. Making something together felt intuitive and spontaneous. Both Starface and Heaven are nostalgic, rebellious, and live a little outside of the mainstream while being relatable, inviting, and fun.'
For the limited-edition drop, the classic star-shaped hydrocolloid patches have been reimagined into tattoo-inspired shapes by artists Keegan Dakkar, Sean Kennedy, Rachel Lu, and David Enth. On top of revamped 5-pointed stars, there are also spiders, faux piercings, and the Heaven mascot, a two-headed teddy bear. Even 'Big Yellow,' Starface's square-shaped logo-cum-mirrored compact, a punk makeover in black-and-white.
'I have always found that Starface embodies a sense of youthfulness in the same way Heaven does,' Heaven by Marc Jacobs creative director Ava Nirui tells Vogue. Both brands are centered around individuality and self-expression and share so many parallels in terms of community and visual identity.'
When Starface launched in 2019, it immediately created waves in the acne skincare world. Celebrities like the Biebers and Anne Hathaway have sported the pimple patches out about town, signaling a major change in attitude toward spots.
'I love what the Starface brand represents and feel super connected to it,' Nirui adds. 'I'm pleased we were able to come up with an idea for the patches that felt super true to the Heaven brand and incorporate the work of artists from the Marc Jacobs world.'

Marc Jacobs Celebrates Anniversary at Maison Orveda
NEW YORK, June 04, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Maison Orveda on Madison Avenue, the wellness sanctuary of the French multi-award-winning biotech skincare brand, hosted an intimate conversation between Marc Jacobs, one of the most recognized names in design, fashion, and beauty, and Bridget Foley, fashion journalist and author. The evening also commemorated the 20th anniversary of Marc Jacobs, the designer's landmark book published by Assouline, celebrating two decades of cultural influence and creative vision. Reflecting on his career spanning fashion and beauty, Marc Jacobs said, "When I first saw my name on a bottle of perfume, I thought to myself, I am a legitimate designer. It was such a landmark." The conversation, introduced by Andrea DiNunzio, Coty General Manager, Ultra-Luxury Skincare & Fragrance USA, explored Marc Jacobs' enduring influence across eras and aesthetics, the emotional clarity of his work and the cultural impact of Marc Jacobs Fragrance. Guests were also given a quiet preview of what's to come: the return of Marc Jacobs Beauty – the next chapter of his iconic makeup line developed in collaboration with Coty. "Marc Jacobs is a cultural force, and we are proud to partner with him to celebrate 20 years of fashion and beauty innovation," said Sue Nabi, CEO of Coty and co-founder of Orveda. "As an absolute skincare expert, he values Orveda's cutting edge science with highly concentrated, yet gentle formulas." Nicolas Vu, co-founder of Orveda, said: "Marc's presence at Maison Orveda celebrates our shared belief in beauty as emotion, reinvention, and connection. His passion for longevity science deeply resonates with Orveda's philosophy — a commitment to healing the skin's past, present, and future." Part of Orveda's Cultural Tastemakers Series, the event brought together artistry, intention, and innovation in a space designed to ignite the mind, spirit, and skin. As a symbol of Orveda's evolving vision for wellness-centered luxury, the Maison– like Marc Jacobs – stands at the vanguard: where trendsetting meets trailblazing, and where beauty is constantly being reimagined through purpose, progress, and poetic expression.
