Vanitas, the latest fragrance from the fashion oligarch Versace, represents the brand through and through with its heady murmurs of beauty, self-assurance and femininity. 

The combination of zesty lime and freesia with exotic solar tiare flower makes Vanitas a sensual fragrance and it evokes memories of heady and seductive summer nights with its cedar wood finish.

Sun-Believable Tan is a tan that sets itself apart from the crowd because it has been created by beauty guru Leighton Denny – a self proclaimed ‘tanaholic’, and tan king James Harknett, with the help of other industry experts. 

The self-tan, in two shades of medium and dark, has a guide colour, is virtually odourless, instant-drying, and develops in two-four hours to give a tan that lasts for up to ten days, while being kind to the skin.
