Dave’s Faves for October

Ciaté Denim manicure set, $19

Cult U.K. nail brand Ciaté is known for creating really innovative nail manicures. This month they offer the “Denim Manicure.” It comes complete with studs, rivets and stitching.

Thierry Mugler refillable bottles, price varies (approx. $500)

French fashion designer Thierry Mugler was one of the first to offer refillable fragrance bottles. He calls the program “The Source” and this month he unveils perfume refill stations at all Hudson’s Bay stores across Canada. Not only do you save money refilling bottles, it cuts down on tons and tons of packaging.

Lancôme Artliner 24H, $37 each

Lancôme’s Artliner eyeliner is a favourite of makeup artists around the globe. This month, the brand offers a new 24-hour version for eye makeup that lasts all night. What I love is the bold colours these come in. A fall essential.

Arden Beautiful Colour Moisturizing Lipsticks (12) $30 each

In 1960, Elizabeth Arden created an entire makeup collection for the Chrysler Oldsmobile. It was this pink and cream train case that perfectly complemented the colour of the car. Inside was everything you needed to make yourself up for the day including a bright red lipstick. This month, Arden launches a new generation of lipstick called Beautiful Colour Moisturizing Lipstick in three finishes: cream, shimmer and pearl. A total of 36 shades.

Narciso Rodriguez fragrance – 10th anniversary, price varies (approx. $700)

New York fashion designer Narciso Rodriguez marks the 10th anniversary of his bestselling women’s fragrance “for her.” It’s a warm and feminine fragrance with hints of musk. To celebrate, Narciso is introducing “for her” musc oil in very limited quantities. A lovely line.
