SWEEPSTAKES
TRUE ORIGINAL Defying trends and steeped in history, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual blends timeless glamour and mechanical innovation. by Murat Oztaskin DOUBTLESS THE MOST FAMOUS WATCHMAKER IN THE WORLD, Rolex was born with innovation in mind. In 1905, founder Hans Wilsdorf, a 24-year-old watchmaking apprentice, dreamed of improving the wristwatch, then plagued with imprecision. Five years later, Rolex created the very first wristwatch to be awarded the Swiss Certificate of Chronometric Precision (COSC). The company followed this with an innovative encore, the hermetically sealed Oyster, the world’s first water- and dustproof wristwatch, in 1926. And then another: In 1931, Rolex invented the self-winding mechanism, what is now called a perpetual movement—the heart of every modern automatic watch. What was an instant classic then is a modern classic now. In a nod to its history, the Oyster Perpetual 31 features Rolex’s in-housedeveloped calibre 2231, a perpetual self-winding mechanical movement with a power reserve of 48 hours, while the Twinlock double locking system on the screw-down crown ensures that the COSCcertified chronometer is waterproof to 100 meters. The classic Oyster bracelet, Roman hour markers (in 18k gold), and clean white dial evoke the glamour of Oysters past, while 904L stainless steel, an ultra-durable superalloy used by the aerospace and chemical industries, adds a subtle high-tech touch to the case. An exemplar of elegant design and construction—then, now, and for years to come. ■

You shot “Some Velvet Morning” on the streets of Tribeca—tell us about it. This shoot was a lot of fun. We had a good idea of what we wanted to get, and a great team to bring everything to life. The only question mark was the weather. We had to shift our shoot one day earlier to avoid thunderstorms and we got very lucky—it stormed the day before, and the day after! Our location gave us some wonderful textures, the light was perfect, and we were able to move quickly and take advantage of the changing moods.

What did you learn in researching the story? Being an influencer is a lot more than just posting pretty pictures. It is absolutely a fulltime job to create a persona that hundreds of thousands of people will find interesting enough to follow! What sites do you follow? I am a sucker for any New York food blog with pretty pictures.
What do you think is key in planning for a short trip? For short trips, focus on one destination. For long trips, anything goes. What is one travel tip for you’d offer a budding travel enthusiast? Give yourself time for an unscripted wander—the surprise, unintended discoveries are often the best ones. What is your favorite trip you’ve taken? It’s tough to name my favorite trip, but India and Cuba are up there. My current fantasy trip is Bhutan. Keeping my fingers crossed!
What do you love about still-life fashion photography? When my studio comes alive with stylists, assistants, and trunks of beautiful clothing and accessories, I know the day ahead is going to be great. Creating still-life images is a process and each step—lighting, styling, art direction—is a refinement toward the final image. What do you think is key to getting a great shot? I have been privileged to work with incredible couture, opulent jewelry and watches, and brilliant accessories. The challenge is to capture the essence, elegance and specificity of an object and present those qualities with a bold, graphic allure.

A Taste for Violence and One Night with Nora, the collaboration questions the role women have played in shaping modern society, putting the depictions of female sexuality front and center on the clothing and at the show. But designers weren’t influenced only by figures of the past. One of the most buzzedabout and cutting-edge artists of the moment, 24-year-old Coco Capitán, lent her scrawl-like handwriting to Gucci’s runway spectacle, putting a street-style spin on the art-as-fashion trend. Gucci’s creative director, Alessandro Michele, made sure the Spanish photographer’s poetic phrases were the focal point of the pieces, layering the words COMMON SENSE IS NOT THAT COMMON on a simple, Gucci-labeled tank top and TOMORROW IS NOW YESTERDAY
on a parasol. Adding an emotive element to the dreamy, glitter-adorned, nature-themed collection, Capitán’s scribbled words help shape the narrative of Gucci’s Fall story—just as Degas and McGinnis do for Tory Burch and Prada. When art and fashion come together, there’s no predicting what compelling tales they’ll tell. ■

THE FALL 2017 RUNWAYS saw the worlds of art and style collide in dynamic new ways. Familiar graphics and motifs evoked works from the world’s great artists, creating designer looks at once familiar and inventive. In Tory Burch’s Fall/Winter 2017 line, abstract interpretations of the ballerina in Edgar Degas’s The Star—curvilinear figures dressed in primary colors—dance along silky off-white tops and dresses. “This print was inspired by Degas’s paintings at the Barnes Foundation— an incredible museum in Philadelphia,” says Burch. “We just loved the motion of his dancers. We did a repeat print, and then blew the design up as a giant placement.” Miuccia Prada took a more literal approach, pulling covers from 1960s paperback novels— designed by noted American illustrator Robert E. McGinnis, who created the legendary Breakfast at Tiffany’s movie poster, among others—and printing them onto pencil skirts and sheaths. Featuring images of alluring, mysterious women from novels with suggestive titles like

THE YEAR OF THE INFLUENCER Fashion’s most formidable forces are influencing trends and inspiring you to buy with one Like of their finger!
EIGHT YEARS AGO, the front row of the Marc Jacobs fashion show had many doing a double take. Who was the pre-pubescent sitting in such prime runway real estate? For many of the fashion industry’s chattering class , the placement of young fashion blogger Tavi Gevinson front and center was nothing short of a travesty. How could a middleschooler be situated in the same rarefied circles as Vogue’s esteemed editor in chief, Anna Wintour, and Harper’s Bazaar’s Glenda Bailey? Fast-forward to today and Gevinson, now 21, sits on a veritable branded empire, which includes her popular online magazine Rookie and a social media following in the hundreds of thousands. Nope, Marc Jacobs was hardly making a fashion faux pas by seating her on the much-coveted front row of his show; his marketeers were simply prescient enough to understand the power of the nascent online influencer. In recent years, fashion brands, from the trailblazing to the traditional, have followed suit, placing so-called “influencers” alongside fashion and beauty veterans as part of a strategic campaign to connect with consumers of all ages and demographics. After all, why just wait for a review in a newspaper or magazine, when a fashion and beauty Instagram star like Arielle Charnas of Something Navy can photograph the runway in real-time and immediately post it to her million-plus followers? “Influencer marketing,” as it’s called in the biz, is nothing new, a recent report by the online Fashion and Beauty Monitor reminds us. After all, Coco Chanel built her success in the 1930s upon her powerful social connections. And shoppers have taken fashion cues for decades from celebrities such as Princess Diana, Madonna, and David Bowie. CLOCKWISE: Bringing his 10.2 million followers with him, Pharrell Williams attends the Chanel show at Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Fall Winter 2017/2018; Selena Gomez, with more followers (over 122 million) than anyone else on Instagram, serves as brand ambassador for Coach, collaborating on design, and, naturally, posting about her favorite products; Anna Wintour and Blake Lively at the Michael Kors Collection Fall 2017 runway show in New York.

“Brands are desperate to find ways to reach the under-30somethings.”
But unlike our celebrity influencers of the past, whose style was almost as unattainable as their friendship, the power and appeal of today’s influencers lie in their approachability. They connect with us personally on our most prized possession: our phone. And when we follow them, we become “friends.” We send them “likes” and hearts, and in return they send us their innermost thoughts, inside secrets and, yes, hot picks! Which, more often than not, we rush out and buy.
“Influencers provide what feels like a more attainable, relatable alternative to celebrity culture,” says Diana Heald, a digital and social strategist who has worked with retailers like Macy’s and major influencers like Arielle Charnas. To wit: When Charnas Snapchatted a Peter Thomas Roth face mask last year, over 500 masks were sold within 24 hours, according to a Women’s Wear Daily report. That translates to $17,565 in sales in a day—that would math out to $6.4 million over the course of a year. “Social channels have become so cluttered with advertising from brands, that consumers tend to tune traditional messaging out,” Heald says. “But they are still quite likely to make purchases based on what they’re seeing on the feeds of influencers they follow.” But the role of the social influencer isn’t stopping at simple product recommendations. Innovative brands, like Gucci, Tom Ford, Burberry, and Dolce & Gabbana are pushing social influence power further. This past January, at the Dolce & Gabbana show, models included daughters of Hollywood royalty like Sophia and Sistine Stallone (daughters of Rocky himself with nearly half a million followers each) and Sofia Richie (younger sister to Nicole, daughter of Lionel, 2.5 million) as well as social media darlings like Cameron Dallas (19 million). The clique was even anointed with its own hashtag, #DGMillennials: beautiful, fashionable, and most important, aspirational. So, move over Linda, Naomi, and even Kate. A beautiful face and killer bod isn’t enough to earn your place on the runway now. What really counts is how many followers you can reach during the show, prompting a surge of as-it-happens interest, and eyeballs. And as Karen Robinovitz, cofounder of Digital Brand Architects, stated in an LA Times interview, “Dollars always follow eyeballs.” In its most recent report, the Fashion and Beauty Monitor quotes other breakthrough social strategies to get us to sit up, take interest and cheerfully part with our dollars. Gucci, for example, hired top social influencer and graffiti artist Trouble Andrew, to take over its Instagram and Snapchat profiles during Milan Fashion Week, while Burberry recently asked David Beckham’s son, Brooklyn, to shoot its fragrance campaign, posting his live shots on Instagram. As well as demonstrating extreme savvy

with social media, almost all of these influencers have one thing in common: they’re millennials, which happens to also be the most important demographic for many fashion and beauty companies. “Brands are desperate to find ways to reach the under30-somethings,” says Wall Street Journal fashion and culture contributor Christina Binkley. With good reason: According to marketing expert Pam Danziger, they have the potential to become the largest spending generation in history. And as brands seek to develop lifelong customers, there is nowhere better to start than with those just old enough to have disposable income to spend on fashion and beauty. Of course, influencers are rewarded with more than front row runway seats. In 2012, Estée Lauder, in an attempt to attract a younger audience, signed influencer Emily Shuman of Cupcakes and Cashmere to a long-term contract, supposedly for six figures. Influencer Millennial models, like Kendall Jenner, can command much more. When she joined the Estée team in 2014, estimates put her contract at over one million per year. Key to their decision to go with Jenner as opposed to a more seasoned model was her social following, which, at the time, topped 30 million. The brand’s global brand president, Jane Hertzmark Hudis, even called her “the ultimate Instagirl.” Their gamble paid off: Two days after announcing the campaign, their Instagram account already had 30,000 new followers. The next year, when they launched a Jenner-inspired lipstick called “Restless,” it became the most successful color on the website, selling out completely. But even those influencers without a famous pedigree are important to the industry. Many of them, from simply posting beautiful photos of their quotidian lives, tap into micro-niches that were heretofore underserviced. “I never really saw anyone who looked like me in the beauty space on Instagram,” says Arshia Moorjani, an Instagram beauty influencer. “I decided to create content on my own for the girls who can relate to my skin tone.” Moorjani’s makeup tutorials and perfectly lit ’grams even landed her a spot in this year’s Make Up For Ever campaign. Adds Marianna Hewitt, a fashion Instagrammer with over 700,000 followers:
“We have personal relationships with our readers and viewers. It isn’t just an outlet speaking to a general audience. They connect with us personally, which makes the whole experience more engaging.” A good influencer creates the illusion that she’s accessible nearly 24/7, with photos, tweets, and even live video. And for many millennials, who are glued to their smart phones, it means their engagement with the content is nearly constant as well. Social media stars as major players in the fashion and beauty industries is certainly a new paradigm, but as Binkley reiterates, “There have always been influencers, since Marie Antoinette. We use whatever media is available at the time. Instagram is just the latest.” ■

Lacoste’s partnership with the PGA Tour’s Presidents Cup golf tournament is a perfect fit. by Karen Rose the International team’s mirrors their team flag in shades of blue and gold. “I tried to keep the younger guys in mind when selecting the uniforms and tried to match what the guys are wearing these days,” says US Team captain Steve Stricker. “We matched the material of the shirts to the performance style that the guys like today. They really liked the fit and wearability.” Adds International Team captain Nick Price, “I was impressed with Lacoste’s willingness to take feedback from our players, especially to ensure the cuts offered the best fit for playability.” The result? Superior comfort for looking sharp on or off the green. The PGA Tour Presidents Cup will be held at Liberty National Golf Club, Liberty State Park, Jersey City, September 26–October 1.

FASHION LOVERS AND GOLF AFICIONADOS alike will be flocking to Lacoste this fall. The super chic French brand is now the official apparel provider of the PGA Tour Presidents Cup golf tournament, held at Jersey City’s Liberty National Golf Club this fall — and the full line of team apparel is available at the Lacoste boutique at The Mall at Short Hills. No stranger to sports-friendly design, Lacoste, founded by golf legend René Lacoste in 1933, has long sponsored golf and tennis tournaments worldwide, including the French Open and the Lacoste Ladies French Open. Lacoste worked closely with the two Presidents Cup captains in designing their teams’ looks. The US Team’s uniforms draw inspiration from the American flag in red, white, and blue, while

OF KORS!
With a glam new location, doubled in size, Michael Kors’s fab new boutique at The Mall at Short Hills is filled to the brim with all the essentials for fall.
THE BUZZIEST WORDS THESE DAYS WHEN IT COMES TO RETAIL MAY NOT BE BRICK AND MORTAR, but don’t tell that to designer Michael Kors, who has just expanded his footprint at The Mall at Short Hills to a space measuring 3,200 square feet. The mega boutique houses the entire lifestyle brand, something he has only been able to achieve in cities such as Seoul, Dubai, Milan, and Paris. Its new location, directly across from Macy’s on the upper level, is a few stores down from the original, and twice the size. The goal was to have one space that would contain the entire range of Michael Kors and MICHAEL Michael Kors, especially since

the company had been looking to add menswear to the mix. And Kors, who grew up in the suburbs of Long Island, is the first to admit he loves a good mall. “Short Hills is exactly what a mall should be: a chic, luxurious shopping environment with some of the best stores,” he notes. The new space carries a complete collection, from handbags, footwear, and ready-to-wear to watches, eyewear, and fragrances. While there are no exclusives yet, that is certainly under discussion as it is something the brand has found effective in some of its 960 global stores. What Kors is particularly enthused about is all of the products they did not have room for before,
including Michael Kors Mens, which encompasses apparel, shoes, bags, and small leather goods. For fall, the designer was “inspired by this idea of strength, but looked at through a very sensual lens. The hybrid of those two things is, I think, the perfect expression of how people want to look today.” And in what can be fluctuating temperatures in New Jersey, with residents jumping in and out of their cars continuously, the selection of pieces for the Short Hills store bore that in mind. Fall for Kors is about texture. As he himself says, “I am a texture junkie.” Choosing the ultimate pieces from the collection is key, especially when hand-picked by Kors himself. “You need a few great,

sumptuous knits. Of course, I’m also outerwear obsessed, so I think every year you should treat yourself to a fabulous new coat—for this season, look for one with a stronger shoulder.” To truly stay on trend and to complete the look, he recommends “a longer skirt that reveals the leg when you walk, and you want a pair of high-waisted pleated trousers.” Not surprisingly, his front row of influencers, including Laura Love, Jourdan Dunn, and Harley Viera Newton, all sat starry-eyed watching the parade of pants march by, the ones Kors himself loves so much. But there were also perfect party dresses for the holiday season: a black bejeweled one on Amber Valetta, fringes on Kendall Jenner, and, of course, the gold showstopper worn by Natasha Poly. To spend time in Kors’s world is to find yourself in a universe richly focused on design. The boutiques themselves are extensions of the brand, and the shop at The Mall at Short Hills is nothing less than spectacular. The store feels very much like their new Regent Street flagship in London; it has a fresh, more modern aesthetic, an evolution of the brand, really. The materials complement the signature pieces in the collections, using neutral and rich materials. The palette consists of soft browns and grays, and the interior is full of texture using brushed stainless-steel shelves, dark oak wood floors, and refined fixtures with Calacatta finishes and Venetian wallpaper. But while the boutique is an expression of the company’s new global outlook, there are also key moments that are exclusive to Short Hills, such as the super glamorous women’s shoe salon. It’s the centerpiece of the space surrounded by translucent glass panels. It is modern in feel, inviting for customers, and the ultimate place to work with their personal shoppers, which is perfectly in line with the experience at The Mall at Short Hills—luxurious, bespoke, and personal.

At Chanel’s Fall 2017 show in Paris, models sported 1960s-inspired curves across their brow bones, created by makeup artist Tom Pecheux. below: It’s no wonder Kat Von D’s Tattoo Liner is a bestseller at Sephora! The highpigment fluid is waterproof and boasts an easyto-use felt tip.
Bobbi Brown’s Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner comes in a slew of bold hues including Chocolate Shimmer (below). Pair it with a powder eyeshadow in burgundy to recreate the striking “reverse cat eye” look at Valentino’s Fall 2017 show.
FELINE GROOVY!
From futuristic floating eyeliner at Chanel to a messy flick at Yves Saint Laurent— this season, the classic cat eye gets a fierce twist.
THE ICONIC CAT EYE DATES BACK TO ANCIENT EGYPT, when Cleopatra adorned her lids with a thick wing of black liner. Today, there’s more than one way to achieve a cat eye. “Many think it’s winged at the tip, then angled upward, but that’s not the only way,” explains Eduardo Martinez, makeup artist for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. This season, the range of top eyeliner looks played right into the overarching theme of individuality and freedom of expression. “I think [designers and makeup artists] want women to feel more empowered,” says Martinez. At Chanel, models strutted down the futuristic runway with floating eyeliner from the bridge of the nose to the tops of

the cheeks. For a more wearable approach, Martinez suggests keeping the line shorter, starting above the lash line using a powder shadow in gray, then transitioning through to the end of your eye crease with a gel liner— try Smashbox’s Jet Set Waterproof Eye Liner (Sephora, 973-258-1919). While the liner, too, was floating on the brow bone at Thierry Mugler, celebrity makeup artist Lisa Butler used Instant Liner from Clarins (Nordstrom, 973-4671500) to create strong, sharp lines. “It’s a playful twist on the classic cat eye,” says Butler, who stresses that it’s key to keep the skin natural. At Valentino, legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath created a burgundy-hued
reverse cat eye, focusing on the lower lash line rather than the top. Get the look using a powder eyeshadow in deep brick and a liner such as Bobbi Brown’s Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner (Sephora, 973-258-1919) in Chocolate Shimmer Ink. Models at Yves Saint Laurent, meanwhile, rocked purposefully messy swipes of black liner across the lids and up the outer eye crease created by makeup artist Tom Pecheux. To get this carefree look, apply your favorite mascara using your fingertips, just as Pecheux did, or try the bestselling Tattoo Liner by Kat Von D (Sephora, 973-2581919), which boasts a felt tip for a fast and easy application— just as the look’s intended to be. n

OLD IS NEW
Footwear designer Paul Andrew shepherds Salvatore Ferragamo’s famous styles into a brave new era.
AFTER LAUNCHING HIS EPONYMOUS LABEL IN 2013 and winning the CFDA/ Vogue Fashion Fund award the following year, designer Paul Andrew added another career-defining feather to his cap in September 2016 when he was named the women’s footwear design director at storied Florentine fashion house Salvatore Ferragamo. His first Ferragamo collection, Pre-Fall 2017, was released in June to raucous applause, showcasing Andrew’s dual dedication to

respecting the sensibility and craftsmanship that have made Ferragamo footwear famous the world over, and adapting those qualities to a younger, more diverse audience. Here, the 38-year-old designer speaks of keeping the past in sight— while training his eye forward. What are your aspirations in this role? I’m taking it step by step: bringing in new ideas for product, presentation, the marketing, the store experience, and hopefully shining new light on the inherent brilliance of the brand. My goal is to maintain Ferragamo’s relationship with [its] loyal clientele, but
simultaneously introduce the brand to a new and younger generation. But this all goes back to Salvatore—I am simply embracing and building upon his original design philosophy. What vision do you hold for the Salvatore Ferragamo woman? My intention is to create shoes that make a woman not only look beautiful, confident, and strong, but feel beautiful, confident, and strong. The Ferragamo woman demands a balance of thoughtful, comfortable design with the most luxurious materials in the world. She values craftsmanship and wearability above all else.
Like Salvatore Ferragamo, you are known for the fit of your shoes. I’m always asked, “In designing shoes, how important is comfort?” My answer is, “It’s not important— it’s essential!” The Short Hills shopper seeks luxury in every facet of her life, from day to play. Which Fall collection style is a must-have in her closet? One of my favorites is an updated version of the flower heel, originally created by Salvatore in 1939. The new version is designed in different heel heights, with one particular iteration coated in a galvanized metal finish applied in an
Italian car factory. Which shoe would you pick to take women from work to the weekend? The black and gold stiletto heel is undeniably a Ferragamo essential: artisanal craft combined with the reimagining of the black and gold design gesture so iconic to the brand’s roots in Hollywood, translated through a perfectly sleek day-toevening pump. What inspires your designs the most? My travels— observing women around the world—as well as art, Midcentury Modern design, and, of course, the extensive Ferragamo archives. ■

BRIGHTEN UP!
The secret to flawless, glowing skin, whatever your age, is this season’s cosmetic essential. by Christina Clemente IF YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE NEXT musthave beauty product, trendwatchers suggest you look to South Korea. Dubbed “K-Beauty,” Korean skincare has been a mainstay on our vanities for years, with sheet masks, super-hydrating essences, and, more recently, skin brighteners—a term that covers antiaging treatments for discoloration and perfecting primers that give
64 THE MALL AT SHORT HILLS
foundation a flawless finish. “Bright and luminescent skin has been long sought after in many Asian cultures,” says Derek Miller, beauty and fragrance director for Nordstrom. “Dull and uneven skin can have a negative effect on an otherwise youthful complexion; customers have begun to focus on illumination in addition to addressing lines and wrinkles.”
In response, brands such as La Prairie, Estée Lauder, Eve Lom, and Clé de Peau have debuted products promising a luminous, spotfree complexion. No surprise that the research firm Mintel reports that 24 percent of facial care items introduced between April 2016 and March 2017 targeted radiance and 20 percent spoke of brightening. Given our obsession with
gorgeous skin—so “naturally beautiful” it seemingly doesn’t require makeup— these pigment-correcting, skin-brightening, and smoothing products are no flash in the pan. Industry experts reckon that glowinducing serums, balms, and primers are now a staple of cosmetic wardrobes. “They aren’t going anywhere,” says Miller. “Brightening products are here to stay.”

LET IT GLOW Forget Instagram filters. New, innovative facial primers promise a flawless visage in one easy swipe. “The cosmetic industry is taking inspiration from Korea, where it’s all about this dewy, glowy look,” says Margarita Cruz, director of new product development for the skincare line Dr. Brandt. “Consumers want a natural look.” This is particularly true of millennials, she adds, who want that on-trend, no-makeup look, and want it fast. Dr. Brandt’s Pores No More Luminizer promises an instant glow thanks to illuminating powders that give the skin a flattering iridescence,
softening lines and imperfections. Cruz calls it “soft-focus technology,” which involves “diffusing the reflection and transmission of light in many directions.” With a dab of Bobbi Brown’s Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm, the skin appears to glow. “We used soft correcting pearls with a specific particle size to give a natural radiance, as opposed to a colorful highlighter,” says Gabrielle Nevin, VP of global product development for Bobbi Brown. And Dior’s Dreamskin Advanced is not just a fastworking, brightening makeup primer (thanks to
optical powders that shrink pores and cast a uniform glow); it also targets the signs of aging, helping skin regain density and tone via new stem cell technology. With time, your skin’s texture will be so improved, you won’t need foundation. Says Nevin, “The better your skin looks, the less makeup you have to wear.” TIGHT AND BRIGHT Spots, blotches, and lack of luminosity—also known as dullness—instantly separate the girls from the women. “Skin discolorations are one of the major signs of aging,” says Dr. Jacqueline Hill,
director of innovation and science at La Prairie. Adds Kelly St. John, VP, divisional merchandise manager for beauty at Neiman Marcus, “Brighteners were sought out by customers as they began aging and seeking solutions for sun-damaged skin. They want preventative treatments for discoloration.” Top brands like Clinique and La Prairie have debuted treatments that directly target skin tone and age spots through potent blends of vitamins, rare botanicals, and emollients to brighten and hydrate. Created to combat early to intermediate signs of aging, they’re a welcome alternative to peels and lasers. For example, La Prairie’s White Caviar Illuminating Pearl Infusion not only focuses on dark spots but also reduces redness caused by stress and grayness from pollution. A two-step treatment, La Mer’s Brilliance Brightening Mask combats dullness and discoloration through a powerful hydrating blend of marine peptides and seasourced actives, while lime tea concentrate, rich in antioxidants, neutralizes free radicals and protects against environmental aggressors. “Brighteners are one of the only products that target and prevent sun damage,” says St. John. “Everyone is affected by environmental stressors that brighteners can fight at the skin level.” n above, from left: Brighteners target blemishes.

SAVE FACE SUFFERING FROM A DULL COMPLEXION? BLAME THESE THREE MAIN CAUSES… Poor Circulation: Diminished blood flow to the skin, caused by dehydration, smoking, lack of exercise, and an unhealthy diet, means less oxygen and nutrients. Translation? Pasty, lackluster skin. Risky Rays: Too much UV exposure can wreak havoc on unprotected skin, especially when it comes to tone. Your skin cells produce melanin to protect you and absorb light— but too much results in hyperpigmentation, or brown spots. Ticking Clock: With aging comes slower cell turnover, or a decrease in the natural renewal of skin cells. This means older cells are on the surface of the skin longer, resulting in a loss of radiance. Solution: Coupled with brightening treatments and illuminating primers, exfoliation is key to healthy, glowing skin. Sloughing off dead cells boosts circulation and speeds up cell turnover, making way for a smoother, more radiant complexion. And if done regularly, it can stimulate collagen production. Note: It’s important not to overexfoliate, which can cause irritation and thinning of the skin. Aveda’s Botanical Kinetics Radiant Skin Refiner (Aveda, 973-4674500) is a creamy, clay-based scrub that gently exfoliates using bamboo extract. Peter Thomas Roth’s Un-Wrinkle Peel Pads (Sephora, 973-2581919) utilize an array of acids, like glycolic, lactic, and salicylic, to quickly exfoliate, while linolenic acid soothes and hydrates.

AMANERA PUERTO PLATA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
Escape to the majestically jungley, oceanside wilds at Amanera, the first Caribbean outpost of the legendary luxury resort brand Aman. A private transfer will whisk you from the airport out to the spectacular isolation of Playa Grande, where the minimalist-chic hotel and its 25 detached cottages are set among 300 lush acres (book a Bayview Pool Casita, perched on a 60-foot cliff). The clifftop 18-hole golf course has more waterfront holes than any other in the Western Hemisphere, and offsite adventures abound--the magically intuitive staff can line up anything from horseback rides through teak plantations to rap-
pelling down waterfalls. Prefer to do a whole lot of nothing? Book a sage-infused body wrap at the standout spa, or simply doze away the hours on the all-butempty, mile-long crescent-shape beach. DON’T MISS: Kite-surfing lessons in nearby Cabarete, where the sport was invented. 809-589-2888; aman.com/resorts/amanera CASTELO DE SAO JORGE LISBON, PORTUGAL

The impeccably preserved public spaces were created by revered design titan Henri Samuel, and the walls are hung with one of the largest and most important collections of Portuguese contemporary art anywhere. Outside, in the heart of the city, there’s been an explosion of world-class, cutting-edge street art in recent years, and the hotel has crafted an exclusive private tour of the scene via vintage motorcycle and professional photo guide. DON’T MISS: To get a true taste of this seafaring nation, slip out for a day and book private lessons at one of the exceptional, prestigious sailing schools that are within an easy drive of Lisbon. 351-21-3811400; ritzlisbon.com

rare gem of a hotel-within-a-hotel so exclusive and tranquil that guests swear they feel transported to a different place and time. The Mansion at MGM Grand is a 290,000-squarefoot haven modeled on an 18thcentury Tuscan villa, complete with elaborate blossoming gardens and gurgling limestone fountains. The 29 suite-only accommodations are usually reserved for high rollers, but if you’re lucky enough to snag a stay you’ll experience the unparalleled levels of opulence and pampering for which the property has become justly known. Personal butlers and on-demand limo service are de rigueur, and the Mediterranean-style interiors are layered with antiques and priceless artworks. Guest quarters include over-the-top touches such as
baby grand (get it?) pianos, walk-in steam showers and private indoor pools. The whole thing is capped by an enormous glass atrium to ensure that, at least at The Mansion, it’s always the perfect climate. DON’T MISS: The famous 18-course tasting menu at three-Michelin-starred Joël Robuchon, where Mansion guests receive VIP reservations. 877-880-0880; mgmgrand.com HOTEL AUBERGE ST.

houses and winding cobblestone streets. Check into the Hotel Auberge St. Antoine, an intimate Relais & Chateaux property renowned for its exquisite service and pitch-perfect cozy-luxe details. The hotel’s singular design incorporates museum-worthy artifacts throughout, and the superlative staff will arrange a private walking tour of the preserved 17th-century ramparts and spectacular cliffside citadel—or you can take it all in via a heart-stopping helicopter ride over the Old City. DON’T MISS: A journey up the St. Lawrence River for an exclusive vineyard picnic on the scenic island of Orleans, then a stop at the shops back in town to score a keepsake in the emerging St. Roch neighborhood, oozing with edgy, irresistible charm. 418-692-2211; saint-antoine.com/en ■
