Lashify Founder Launches Nibl
Lashify founder Sahara Lotti has unveiled her newest beauty venture. It’s Nibl, a click-on press-on nail brand created alongside Hannah Bruno, a 20-year-old inventor Lotti discovered on TikTok. Bruno came up with the idea for Nibl during her school days, when she grew fed up with removing her manicures before every volleyball match. She began using a 3D printer to develop a mechanism that lets artificial nails snap on and off, and shared it online. Her demos gained millions of views, and in June 2025 one caught Lotti’s eye, leading the beauty entrepreneur to reach out and help turn the invention into a business. Over a year later, Nibl has arrived with a patent-pending Click-On Nail Kit featuring an almond-shaped Petal design. Oval, square, and stiletto shapes are on their way.
Glow Recipe Drops James Welsh Collab
British beauty influencer James Welsh has partnered with Glow Recipe on a limited-edition edit of his favourite products. James’s Glow Favourites kit combines three hydrating, barrier-friendly picks, shrunk down to travel-friendly size and housed in a sleek burgundy pouch. Inside you’ll find the Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner (40ml), which gently exfoliates for smoother, brighter-looking skin; the Prickly Pear Peptide Mucin (40ml), for a hit of hydration; and the Watermelon Milk Peptide Glow Cushion Cream (50ml), to moisturise skin and boost radiance. The giftable kit is now available at Cult Beauty in the UK and glowrecipe.com in the US.
CeraVe Teams Up With Dune: Part Three
CeraVe is going to Hollywood, sort of. The American skincare brand has landed its first-ever film partnership with Dune: Part Three, which is set for release from mid-December. It’s now The Official Moisturizer of Arrakis, the arid desert planet at the centre of the story. The moisturiser in question is, of course, the brand’s cult-favourite CeraVe Moisturizing Cream, and it will take the starring role in the campaign, rolling out through a series of social films. The fragrance-free cream is formulated with hyaluronic acid and three ceramides to support the skin barrier and provide long-lasting hydration.
Ayurvedic Skincare Brand Lavanaē Debuts
New skincare brand Lavanaē has launched, and it’s blending modern skin science with Ayurvedic principles. Founder Aprajita Lavania built it around ‘system-led skincare’ — products designed to tackle several concerns at once in a minimalist routine. Lavanaē has arrived with two products: the Spark Cellular Brightening Serum, which pairs Indian gooseberry and saffron with glutathione and niacinamide; and the Seal Barrier Reset Cream, which combines ceramides and omega fatty acids with bakuchi oil and ashwagandha.
