Charli XCX For Valentino Beauty, Ariana Grande’s Magical Collab, Plus! Soho’s New Addition…

Charli XCX Brings Party Girl Glam To Valentino Beauty

You wanna guess the color of her…lipstick? That’s right! Charli XCX is Valentino Beauty‘s new US brand ambassador, hard-launched with a sleek campaign to match. The news coincides with the Brat musician’s newest feature in Allure, where she shares her beauty essentials—including matte lipstick, 111Skin face masks, and Kérastase conditioner. We approve!  The moment also comes amidst a busy week for Valentino Beauty. The label has just released its new Spike Valentino Buttery Matte lipstick line, opened a matching pop-up in Flatiron, and dropped a collection of unisex fine fragrances with themes from “Private Talk” to “Punk Romance.” But it’s only fitting—or, as XCX would say, everything is romantic!
