CHANTECAILLE, the luxury French make-up and skincare brand featuring a high concentration of natural botanicals, was founded by Sylvie Chantecaille almost 20 years ago. The brand continues its commitment to support the environment with the launch of a limited-edition cheek and highlighter duo in time for summer. In a choice of two colours, each compact features a mirror, creamy blusher and a complimenting illuminating highlighter.
First up is Coral Radiance Compact, comprising a warm-toned blush that gives a sculptured effect once applied, twinned with a luscious light-peach highlighter for enhancing the areas of the face where the sun hits (such as cheekbones, forehead and chin). Rose Radiance Compact, the cooler-toned pink blush, teams with a soft golden highlighter, blending perfectly together.
Priced at £79 each.

Sales of Radiance Chic will support WildAid’s shark and manta ray programs, with each Radiance Chic Duet Compact featuring an image taken by WildAid photographer Shawn Heinrichs. In July 2019 WildAid invited Sylvie to Isla Mujeres to swim with whale sharks to learn how this marine species are exploited for consumption. 73 million sharks are killed for shark fin soup each year, and more than 150,000 rays are killed each year for their gill plates, a popular traditional medicine ingredient. WildAid’s motto is: When the buying stops, the killing will.

Chantecaille Lip Tint Hydrating Balm
In terms of body care, we cannot think of a better cream to slather over our face and body to get us beach-ready this summer than Chantecaille’s CBD 300 Cream. Nutrient-dense, it is infused with botanicals that target dryness and visible redness. It even manages to work well for sensitive skin, being one of the first luxury creams to blend the soothing and calming benefits of broad-spectrum CBD (cannabidiol).

Now let’s talk about Radiance Exilir. This illuminating pearlescent face serum is infused with glow-boosting intelligent botanicals, giving the skin a radiant and healthy glow when applied. Innovative skin-awakening and radiance-boosting peptides visibly hydrate the skin, while the colourless carotenoid elements (a tomato derivative) magically plump fine lines. Once this serum has worked into the skin, it leaves a fresh and healthy glow – perfect for summertime.
