This is the age of all things new, it seems all the brands kept the goodies for this summer. If you know Balmain, then you definitely know what luxury looks like. In May earlier this year, the french fashion house spearheaded by designer Oliver Rousteing decided to create a line of lipsticks that would be released in September. All makeup artists, beauty bloggers and everyone were o excited, not only would you have a luxury brands lipstick but you would also have the lipstick encased in wearable accessory(how cool is that).

Rousteing told Business of Fashion about his reasons for signing a contract with the cosmetic giant, “I’m really close to luxury but at the same time I’m also close to pop culture and I think a lot of people who may love the Balmain universe can’t afford the clothes.

The collaboration with L’Oreal Paris opens up luxury in a different way. For (consumers) to get a piece of Balmain (make-up) is a way for them to get into the Balmain universe. Make-up has always been part of my aesthetic and my silhouette. Having the opportunity to do that with an institution like L’Oreal Paris for me is an incredible dream.”
