The beauty world this April balances design, pop culture and conscious skincare. Aesop transforms light into an architectural experience in Milan, while Miley Cyrus and Zoe Saldana become the new faces of iconic brands. Meanwhile, Pharrell Williams offers a new take on the beauty routine on the go, and Demi Moore joins Lancôme's international ambassador team for the first time.
Zoe Saldana and Demi Moore are the new ambassadors of Lancôme
French beauty house Lancôme has announced two new global ambassadors: Zoe Saldana and Demi Moore. Zoe Saldana, who recently joined the brand, embodies a new generation of Lancôme heroines – confident, authentic and open to the natural process of change. In her interviews, the actress emphasizes the importance of self-acceptance and a minimalist approach to beauty, which fully resonates with the brand's philosophy.

Miley Cyrus is the new face of Maybelline
Miley Cyrus has officially joined Maybelline. The campaign is built around a reinterpretation of the iconic slogan “Maybe it's Maybelline”, which Cyrus turns into a full-fledged musical track, but with her own intonation, mood and character.
At the heart of this collaboration is the idea of self-expression: makeup that changes with mood, music and personality. That's why the visual language of the campaign refers to Cyrus' studio life. The shooting took place at the legendary Electric Lady Studios in New York, which gave the image a primal, almost rock 'n' roll energy. “Makeup and music are inseparable for me. Both phenomena reflect performance and authenticity,” says Cyrus, emphasizing that this collaboration has become a personal story for her: from childhood dreams to the status of a global icon
Teyana Taylor is the new face of Revlon
Teyana Taylor is the new face of Revlon's iconic Super Lustrous lipstick line. The singer and actress, who won a Golden Globe this year for her role in the film “One Battle After Another,” represents a new phase in the brand's communications – bolder, more diverse and modern.

As part of the collaboration, Taylor will appear in the “Be Unforgettable” campaign, which reinterprets Revlon's legendary 1980s slogan – “The Most Unforgettable Women in the World Wear Revlon.” At one time, icons such as Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, Oprah Winfrey and Liza Minnelli became its faces. Now, this story is getting a new interpretation.
Pharrell Williams presents Humanrace grooming kit
Pharrell Williams continues to develop his own beauty brand Humanrace, this time with an emphasis on mobility and conscious consumption. The new Humanrace Travel Kit is a compact set of mini versions of the brand's key products: 7D Retrograde Gel Cleanser, Lotus Enzyme Exfoliator, as well as face and body creams. The idea is simple: to provide continuous care no matter the route and its complexity.
The set was released exclusively on the brand's website. The approach emphasizes Humanrace's focus on long-term use and waste minimization.
Aesop opens The Factory of Light installation in Milan
This year, at the famous Salone del Mobile, Australian skincare brand Aesop is once again reimagining space through design, and doing so in the most poetic way possible. This is the brand’s third time participating in Milan’s premier design event, but in 2026, it’s presenting perhaps its most ambitious project yet.
The installation, called The Factory of Light, is located in the Santa Maria del Carmine monastery, just a few steps from the brand’s boutique in the trendy Brera district. The space, created by Australian architect Rodney Eggleston (March Studio), explores light as a material: physical and emotional. At the heart of the project is Aposē, a trio of lamps designed by Aesop. One of them will be released in a limited edition. It is through these objects that the brand continues its long-standing conversation about light: from the amber bottles that protect formulas from the sun to the ingredients that give skin radiance.
The installation is constructed as a journey through four rooms where light is revealed through craft, texture and the interplay of materials. The space is created from recycled building materials and awnings that once concealed historic facades during restoration – a gesture that speaks both of memory and transformation.
The final scene is a wave of 10,000 bottles that reflect light and create an almost meditative effect. In this silence, visitors are invited to immerse themselves in familiar Aesop rituals: hand cleansing, home fragrances, and moments of slowing down. The installation runs from April 21 to 26.
