Japanese visual designer Yayoi Kusama is known for her playful, botanically-inspired aesthetic, and Lancôme has joined forces with the artist to create these cute new limited-edition collection of Juicy Tubes glosses ($15 each). Each gloss (available in Pop Art Hazelnut, Happy Honey, Rose Blossom, Dot Apricot, Crazy Raspberry, and Swing Pink) features honey as the main ingredient, and is formulated with its own unique fragrance. In addition, these sheer-finish, preservative-free lip colors are packaged in tubes certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, which helps reduce the exploitation of forests. Between the sweet scent and whimsical design, these are a guaranteed summertime treat.

Bellissima! Lancome Juicy Tubes Julie Verhoeven

Like most beauty junkies, I'm a little obsessed with fashion, too.

Like most beauty junkies, I'm a little obsessed with fashion, too. So I love it when the two worlds collide in creative products, like the Guerlain/Pucci makeup that came out a few months ago. Now, Lancome has just released a very special version of its best-selling Juicy Tubes Ultra Shiny Lip Gloss, called Juicy Tubes Julie Verhoeven ($17.50).

An artist, illustrator, and designer, Verhoeven has created handbags for Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton, and she's now working on a new line for Mulberry. Her first boss out of college was John Galliano.

For this limited-edition Juicy Tube, Lancome hired Verhoeven to design both the color — Pink Muse, a sheer pink with a hint of glitter — and the packaging, which features a playful illustration of a purple-haired post-punk girl. The lip gloss is available nationwide through October.
