Very few colors are as fascinating and historic as Valentino Red. Introduced in 1959, the bright hue, initially dubbed “Fiesta”—a cross between fuchsia and crimson red—embodies the fashion house’s commitment to Italian charm, romance, and glamour. Valentino Red is easily distinguishable, welcoming, and timeless, which the house perfectly translated to the packaging of its upcoming Valentino Beauty collection.

The collection—made up of multi-use, multi-finish products arrive in a glossy Valentino Red outfitted with the equally lustrous gold Valentino emblem that appears on Valentino’s signature bags, shoes, and jewelry. The packaging is as luxurious and captivating as the brand’s whimsical gowns.
Valentino Beauty’s color palette of red and gold remains consistent throughout the collection, from the gold hardware inside the lipstick tubes to the gold lining on the outskirts of the blushes. Valentino Beauty adds an extra touch of luxury by attaching a gold chain to its compact powders to emulate the design of a clutch bag. In addition to lipstick, foundation, and blush, the Valentino Beauty collection will also introduce its own mascara, brow filler, eyeshadow and cheek palettes, eyeliner, highlighter, and cushion foundation.
