The Luxe List – July
THE SPF:
Mecca Cosmetica SPF
Australian beauty brand Mecca has launched its sunscreen products in the UK. Its hero product is To Save Face SPF50+ Superscreen, and it’s one to be trusted because in Australia sunscreen is considered a medicine and thus strictly regulated. Lightweight, luxurious and loaded with skincare ingredients, the SPF delivers an invisible layer of chemical sun protection that looks as good as it feels.

With archival designs offered alongside new ones, customers can choose from a mix of graphic stripes, florals and prints to help set the tone for summer events – whether that’s al fresco dinners, casual drinks, hen dos or milestone birthday parties.

THE WEEKEND ESCAPE:
Maybourne La Plage
The Maybourne Riviera, set above the picturesque town of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, has a new beach club for summer 2023. Maybourne La Plage faces the Mediterranean and is inspired by both the golden age of the French Riviera and Slim Aarons pictures of the Amalfi Coast – picture pretty coral and orange-coloured restaurant furnishings and sun loungers. Guests can arrive directly by boat, mooring up to the club’s wooden pontoon. The restaurant serves an informal seasonal menu: think linguine alle vongole, grilled lobster and octopus, with a reimagined Tropezienne tart for dessert.

THE SCENT:
Steamed Rainbow by D.S. & Durga
D.S. & Durga’s creative scents are some of our favourites and, excitingly, there are two more about to join the line-up. Steamed Rainbow brings together ingredients to represent every colour in the rainbow, including violet, almond flower and mandarin. Fellow newcomer Pistachio is playfully sweet, with a nutty scent that surprises with its freshness. Meanwhile, those who are travelling this summer should pick up the brand’s new Pocket Perfumes – a collection of six signature scents packaged as colourful 10ml roll-on oils. Our pick is the Mexico-inspired Jazmin Yucatan.

THE RESTAURANT:
RH England

The 73-acre estate has been restored and reimagined as a design and hospitality destination complete with five restaurants and bars, plus the RH interior design studio. The Orangery is a fine-dining restaurant; there’s The Loggia, an informal pizza terrace; an elegant Tea Salon and Wine Lounge; and a specialist Juicery. In the beautiful surroundings of The Orangery, expect to sample the likes of rotisserie chicken and its signature dish, a wood-grilled avocado with 15g of Petrossian Imperial kaluga caviar.
