There’s a pioneering aspect to this autumn-winter 2024 collection: for the first time since thelaunch of Hermès Beauty, a limited edition brings togetherRouge Hermès, Ombres d’HermèsandLes Mains Hermèsaround the same story. Inspired by the intense aura of the colour blue and thesensuality of leather, it juxtaposes the warm and the cold, the tactile and the visual, the tangibleand the intangible. It is a link between balmy summer days and the arrival of cooler winter air.
This limited edition gives pride of place to blue: radiant, versatile, diverse and multifaceted. Shadesof blue suggest the vastness of a dream, at once intense and airy, like the sky over moorlandsbathed in light. Fresh hues reflect this duality in a sensory blend of hot and cold.
A Trio Of Rouge Hermès Lipsticks
ROUGE HERMÉS, RM490 & RM455
Each Rouge Hermès lipstick case features a trio of colours imagined by Pierre Hardy, creator of Hermès Beauty objects. The subtle combinations of natural and botanical hues are each offset by a blue accent in a different shade: Bleu Lagon, Bleu Abysse or Bleu Tempête. And for the first time, the object has an ultra-matte finish, echoing the velvety feel of leather
- 03 Beige Glacé: A bright and sunny beige, delicately illuminated with pearlescent shades of copper and pink.
- 23 Beige Doblis: Dense and reddish like clay, bringing a velvety warmth to the lips.
- 73 Rouge Nappa: A red shade with a muted depth that fades on the lips, leaving a sheer, wine-tinted veil.
This palette of intensities and finishes builds to a crescendo on the lips, like the gentle transition from season to season. “A transparent finish illuminates the lips like a ray of sunshine, a matte finish gives them a more velvety look, and a sheer matte finish produces a ‘bitten lip’ effect,” explains Gregoris Pyrpylis, Creative Director of Hermès Beauty.
An Ombres d’Hermès Palette
11 OMBRES MINÉRALES, RM680
The round case in white and gold brushed permabrass designed by Pierre Hardy for Obbresd’Hermès—precious, refined, and bearing the Hermès ex-libris—is the perfect setting for this limited edition. It opens to reveal a large mirror and a lacquered applicator for easy and precise use. The new quartet of eyeshadows designed by Gregoris Pyrpylis combines matte, satin, and shimmer finishes.
- 11 Ombres Minérales: A natural palette in tune with the leather tanning process, incorporating an intense cobalt blue that elevates a soft khaki and a warm, sun-kissed brown, offset by acounterpoint of gold.
“Blue can be used to intensify and give depth the eyes, a depth comparable to that of the ocean itself,” says Gregoris Pyrpylis.
