Celebrating the new collection is the Dior Forever Nude Bronze Glow ($108 each) with a more couture allure like never before, in the iconic Toile de Jouy from case to powder. Also, for the first time ever, courtesy of the innovative Dior technology, a bronze shimmer highlights the surface of the powder to reveal every last detail. In this collection you'll find two limited edition colour harmonies — a sensual coral with 031 Coral Breeze and a fresh pink with 032 Pink Bronze. Both present four dazzling effects namely a satin bronzer, a matte sculpting shade, a radiant blush, and a glimmering gold highlighter that can all be applied with a single sweep of a brush to leave you with a glow finish that reveals a radiant, sun-kissed complexion elevated by a natural tan.

These refillable lipsticks are the new future heirlooms
One of the biggest trends in make-up for spring/summer is the refillable lipstick, and all the top labels are offering their own take. From Lisa Eldridge, By Terry and Guerlain to Chanel, Dior and Hermès, investing in a high-quality case concealing a beautiful bullet of colour is the most stylish way to update your routine right now. Undoubtedly the push for sustainability, which has become increasingly important in the beauty industry in the past few years, is driving part of the appeal – but there's more to it than that, including the 'lipstick index' – a term coined by Estée Lauder's Leonard Lauder, who theorised that lipstick sales go up during financially turbulent times because we need a relatively inexpensive injection of joy. I'd also argue that in politically uncertain climates (such as ours), we covet comforting possessions that last; beautiful items we can hold on to; something to cherish and pass down (or up) to the next generation. For years the classic heirloom, gifted from parent to offspring, was a watch. Increasingly, as beauty moves away from its transient and disposable nature, I think we're going to see these types of objects (which, like watches, can also be engraved) being handed down. As the proud owner of a tiny Estée Lauder powder compact that used to belong to my late grandmother, maybe I would say that. But I love that every time I use it, I'm reminded of her. Alongside the emotional aspect, there's also a very physical presence to the compact that gives it a sense of permanence: it feels weighty in your hand; it gives a satisfying click when you close it. The new refillable lipsticks are similarly designed for longevity – created to outlast not just a season or two, but several generations. Terry de Gunzburg, of By Terry, says she too bonded with her grandmother over beauty, eventually designing By Terry's refillable lipstick, Rouge Opulent, £49 in honour of their shared passion. By Terry Rouge Opulent Lipstick, £49 'During my childhood, I had the privilege of being surrounded by my grandmother's beautiful collection of precious cosmetic objects,' she says, recalling 'a Cartier refillable compact case, a Van Cleef jewelled lipstick case adorned with sapphires and rubies, a gold mesh powder case, and lipstick. My mother cherished these treasures and passed them down to me. They are like family heirlooms, shaping my style and my vision of ultimate sustainable luxury.' Dior Rouge Premier Refillable Haute Couture Lipstick, £555 with refill This sense of heritage is reflected in the press materials for Dior's Rouge Premier lipstick, £555, a ceramic and 18ct gold case decorated with the toile de Jouy pattern Christian Dior chose for the walls of the first Dior boutique. '[It is] designed to last […] to be kept carefully over the years, following the tradition of valuable objects handed down from one generation to the next, like a legacy.' Chanel 31Le Rouge Satin Lipstick, £145 Similarly Chanel's 31 Le Rouge lipstick, £145 features a glass case, intended to echo the mirrored staircase in Coco Chanel's apartment, with two gold-coloured metal rings, described as being 'like two wedding bands that seal the precious union between the present and future.' Guerlain, arguably the pioneers of the trend having launched the first refillable lipstick in 1870, last year relaunched their Rouge G collection of cases, £67 with a hidden mirror, saying they are 'intended to be refilled, kept and passed on.' Guerlain Rouge G The Customisable Ultra-care Lipstick, £67 And, perhaps inevitably for items designed to be kept, the craftsmanship is jaw-dropping. Chanel spent four years trying to work out how you could make a glass case durable, and used a master glassmaker from Japan to design it. While Dior spent five years working with a Limoges-based porcelain company to create their ceramic case. For Lisa Eldridge, a long-time collector of vintage make-up, the desire was to create something covetable with genuinely sustainable credentials. The result is Rouge Experience, £49, a world-first with refills made entirely from aluminium — no plastic — so they can be easily and infinitely recycled. Lisa Eldridge Rouge Experience Refillable Lipstick, £49 'After years of collecting and studying beauty history my ultimate goal was to add something significant,' says Eldridge. ' And this uniquely beautiful object combines cutting edge futurism with old world charm.' Her design — like so many of the refillable lipsticks — has a timeless feel to it. And, while some of the cases have very distinguishing features (the Dior toile de Jouy is unmistakeable, and those in the know would clock those Hermes stripes at 20 paces) most don't scream their brand name at you. Hermes Rouge Amazone Engraved Limited Edition Lipstick, £66 In the same way that the most exclusive watches aren't instantly recognisable, these are beautiful, enduring objects given a twist by virtue of having a component that can be swapped according to the mood or style of the owner. So while your mother might have been a satin coral type, when you inherit her lipstick case, you can bespoke it with your own signature shade. Pierre Hardy who designed the Hermes case, said of it: 'Intuitively, to become timeless, this object had to be able to morph, remain iconic, but stay fluid, be part of a connected sequence, and perpetually recognisable. A constant yet ever-changing object.' It's that sort of individuality that makes them the ultimate status symbol, the very epitome of stealth luxury. And, in a world where everything seems so fast-paced and disposable, the elevation of such an everyday object to something that manages to combine tradition with modernity is a joy — to give, and to receive.
