Bespoke

Custom products are

becoming increasingly

accessible.Sharon Hunt

explores the new beauty

universe of you.

Build-a-palette

No longer should a palette

contain shades you never

use. Design-your-own palettes

are offered by mass-market

and department-store brands.

These empty cases allow you

to handpick make-up elements

to include in your collection.

Make-up artist Monica Gingold

advises "a mixture of light,

medium and dark shades – as

well as matte and shimmers to

create a variety of looks.”

F

rom monogrammed handbags to engraved

pens – there’s something special about

an item that’s exclusively yours. After all,

personalisation is an insignia of luxury.

Professional beauty experiences have

always excelled in regard to personalisation,

tailoring everything from facial techniques to

hair colour to suit the individual.

But where beauty personalisation fell short

was with take-home products – and particularly

make-up. Anyone who’s ever stood at a beauty

counter silently debating which foundation shade

is a better it for them will relate. Personalised

cosmetics have always seemed like a pipe dream

... that is, until now.

A new bespoke beauty category has emerged with

the goal of creating products as individual as you are.
