THE BEST IN BEAUTY
FROM THOSE WHO KNOW BEST

VIOLET GREY began with our search for the best eyelash curler. To find the answer, we formed a band of inside-Hollywood experts and editors — from makeup artists to movie stars — to test every eyelash curler against our rigorous set of standards (the VIOLET CODE). We tested on film sets, on red carpets, and in the back of Jack Nicholson’s limousine — and once we learned which curler would make our lashes curve and not crimp (Utowa, it’s from Japan), we moved on to mascara, lip stain, dry shampoo, and everything else a girl needs in her cosmetic wardrobe. On any given day, we are discovering, testing, and approving best-in-class beauty. The result is a discerning curation of products, tips, and inspiration deemed essential — the Industry’s Beauty Edit.

Details

A fresh arrangement of blackcurrant leaves and Bulgarian roses with a subtle trail of amber and musk.

Working in her riverside English garden, a friend of the Diptyque founders was captivated by the irresistible freshness of blooming roses mingling with tangles of blackcurrant bushes. Translated as ‘Shadow in the Water,’ this scent opens with an exuberant green note, unfolds into lush rose petals, and resolves with thoughtful notes of amber and musk.

How to use

Apply lightly to pulse points on wrist, neck, or even behind knees.
Do not press wrists together—this crushes the notes.
Fragrance lasts longer on hydrated skin. If your skin is naturally dry, be sure to moisturize before application.
Reapply every three to four hours, or as needed.

Editor’s Notes

The name ‘Diptyque’ comes from the word ‘diptych’—a painting or sculpture divided in two hinged panels that can be folded together. The original store at 34 boulevard Saint-Germain had two large display windows on either side of the entrance, as if an opened diptych, inspiring the founders to name it after the antiquated art style.
