Simply Abu Dhabi Magazine XVII

2 3 5 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I S IMPLY BEAUT I FUL B y S o p h i e M c M u l l a n A s a new season approaches, and with so many beauty brands to consider, it's exciting to see what's new on the market that we can slot into our already abundant cosmetic wardrobes. That said, this edition of Simply Beauty has a slightly different angle than before. I feel like it's a time to look into male grooming and what's out there for the gentlemen to covet. For pure luxury and a line that will look good in your home as well as provide results for your complexion, Tom Ford is the obvious choice. I'm already a massive fan of his women's line and his take on the men’s skincare is just as impressive. Take a look and see what he has to offer, to improve your daily regime and enhance your features – you won't be disappointed. Another brand that men will also be fans of and are perhaps already aware is Paul Mitchell. A prominent figure in the haircare world already, this is a collection for both men and women that can be trusted to care for and treat the needs of our hair. I even get to pose the man himself some questions and find out more about the company’s products, history and ethos, as well as new items we can look forward to enjoying. Then back to the ladies. A colour line with pure indulgence. The red-soled maestro that is Christian Louboutin has come up with a new take on nail lacquer that will surprise and delight all those who view and try it. Every aspect has been thought of and heightened; from the highly pigmented tones through to the beautifully designed bottles, you haven't seen anything like this before. I hope you enjoy learning more from the offerings in this edition of Simply Beauty and as ever, do let me know any responses and opinions you may have. I welcome your feedback so please get in touch via my twitter and instagram: @beautisserie and I’d be happy to respond. Indeed, if there are any elements of beauty you’d like me to research, tell me and I’ll look into it!
