To celebrate the 30th anniversary of YSL make up, Yves Saint Laurent has created a genuine beauty accessory.

This precious bow, inspired from the famous “Bow” bag, reveals two exquisite textures for irresistible lips: an intense raspberry lipstick and a sparkling pink gloss infused with blue highlights to be worn alone or on top of the lipstick.

Congratulations to Esteban Cortazar, new head designer of Emanuel Ungaro, at only age 23! He is the second youngest person to head a fashion house. ( Yves Saint Laurent was only 22 when he took over Dior.)
