What’s on the ELLE editors’ radar this month.


SWEET DREAMS
Dior Skincare’s top-selling product is
getting an upgrade. The third gen-
eration of Dreamskin Care & Perfect
($185, dior.com) is the result of 800
different formulations, tested on some
100 women, with all skin tones rep-
resented. Think of it as a souped-up
primer: It colour-corrects and blurs
pores instantly while its niacinamide,
shea butter and French Alpine water
improve skin over time.

SUPERWOMAN
Prepare to yawn a bit more in the of-
fice each morning. You’re going to be
up way past your bedtime watching
A Little Late with Lilly Singh, hosted by
the YouTuber/proud Torontonian/ELLE
Canada cover star. Singh will bring
her joyful humour to TV when the
show debuts on Global this month,
making her the first woman of colour
to host a late-night show on a major
network. It’s about time.

COZY UP
Just in time for sweater weather
(yay!), Canadian brand Asum
is putting an unexpected twist
on the classic pullover with a
slouchier cowl-neck style. The line
is made of organic cotton and
produced in small batches in local
factories—one of which is owned
by designer Angela Sum’s mom.
(From $130, byasum.com)

POWER IN NUMBERS
Over 4,000 ceramic beads make up New
Mexico-based artist Cannupa Hanska
Luger’s Every One sculpture—one for
every missing and murdered Indigenous
woman, girl, queer and trans person in
Canada and the United States. Each bead
was handmade by people affected by the
crisis across North America. Together,
the beads form an image of a woman—a
reminder that behind each number is a life.
The piece will be on display at Toronto’s
Gardiner Museum starting August 30.
