THE EVERGREEN CHOICE

Timeless prestige is an enduring OMEGA imprimatur. This 30mm Seamaster Aqua Terra is a case in point. A masterpiece of light and form, cast in the radiant glow of 18K Moonshine Gold, this is a keeper. A profound tribute to OMEGA’s maritime soul, its symmetrical case is framed by a polished bezel pav-set with 46 brilliant diamonds, encircling a stunning sun-brushed dial in deep, lacquered green.

Every detail is a pursuit in refinement. From the 11 diamond hour markers to the delicate, tapered hands that emit a serene blue luminescence, the watch balances brilliance with clear legibility. At its heart beats the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8751, an icon of Swiss precision certified to the highest industry standards by METAS.

Completing this exceptional ensemble is an integrated bracelet of Moonshine Gold, comprising elegantly rounded, polished-brushed links and a comfort-adjustment system—ensuring that the embodiment of horological luxury feels as effortless as it looks.

STEAL THE THUNDER

When a lipstick is too in your face; lipstain, too subtle a gesture, a lip gloss may be your best bet to seal the deal. YSL LOVESHINE, a plumping lip oil gloss, the latest launch from YSL Beauty, delivers a luscious, hydrated, sparkly pout. Don’t fret much about the slight tingling from the ginger and pepper oil blend that lends a gentle plump, making your lips look fuller and more nourished. This icy-lavender gloss delivers a glassy high-shine finish, while hyaluronic acid and fig pulp hydrate.

POWER OF LOVE

With opening notes of juicy rose, which bloom into Damascena rose and jasmine, before leaving a sensual trail of creamy sandalwood and musk, it’s obvious that Idle Power is a love potion.
