Beyond Lipstick - Isamaya LIPS Collection

Isamaya Beauty Vanity Water Balm - Object to experience Part of the Isamaya Lips collection launched in 2023, the Vanity Water Balm transcends traditional beauty conventions through a surrealist lens, creating tension between brutalism and sensuality. A sheer, inky-black balm tint encased in a slender chrome sheath, reimagines the everyday lipstick as a sculptural artefact - bold, provocative and performative. Join me in a brief exploration on the lip product beyond an accessory, toward a more immersive, conceptual experience - where the product becomes both a tool and sculpture in the intimate ritual of makeup application.
