After the launch of the couture matte lipstick collection, L’Oréal Paris and Balmain come back in force revealing what already looks like the epitome of their creative collaboration: an ultra-limited lipstick jewel edition.

Three magical stories in Rock, Couture and Glamazone. This collection for all complexions was designed in the spirit of diversity and women’s empowerment with the rallying call: United We Are Invincible.

Now, Balmain’s singular jewelry craftsmanship meets the innovation and expertise of L’Oréal Paris in the creation of an entirely new and unprecedented beauty-fashion accessory: a L’Oréal Paris x Balmain lipstick necklace as the standout centerpiece of designer jewelry.

“This design collaboration between fashion artisanship and Color Riche creates a new duality between two kinds of visual beauty, lipstick and jewelry, which unite in one necklace.” states Zak Yopp, Global Vice President Makeup L’Oréal Paris

“Directly inspired by Balmain’s artisanal heritage and our recent collections, my team and I created this limited-edition accessory as a collector’s piece to stand out, pairing Balmain’s signature gold with jewel tones to create couture-like pendants. I love that each hides a secret power: a one-of-a-kind shade of lipstick.”

states Olivier Rousteing, Creative Director Balmain Paris
