Dressing for a Cause
Ralph Lauren’s global philanthropic initiative marks 24 years in the fight against cancer with the launch of the PINK PONY collection, symbolizing international awareness for breast cancer. This year, Ralph Lauren debuts the "Live well. Be well." campaign, part of the brand's ongoing 30-year mission to raise awareness and emphasize early detection in the fight against cancer.
The collection features pink, black, and gray apparel, including T-shirts, polo shirts, hoodies, tracksuits, and caps adorned with either the iconic horse logo or the capsule’s unique slogan. For the fifth consecutive year, 25% of proceeds will go to the "One in Nine" organization, dedicated solely to breast cancer support.
Beauty in Community Gardens
Yves Saint Laurent’s beauty division harnesses ingredients from community gardens with the launch of the new Myslf Le Parfum for men. This intense, sensual fragrance embraces the mantra of self-expression with responsibility. It contains Tunisian orange blossom absolute distilled for a fresh, bold aroma; hand-picked Bourbon geranium from Madagascar, enriched with lychee and mint hints; and two varieties of lavender, one exclusively grown at the foot of the Atlas Mountains in Morocco, and another sustainably sourced from France.
Women, too, are celebrated with the Libre Flowers & Flames fragrance, designed for the fierce, free-spirited woman. The scent has bold floral notes with an exclusive desert lily accord, paying homage to Yves Saint Laurent’s heritage and favorite flower. The perfume contains Palm Flower from the Atlas community gardens, premium vanilla infusion from Madagascar, and sustainably harvested lavender from Provence.
The collection also introduces the Couture Mini Clutch Eyeshadow Palette, inspired by the streets and colors that fueled Yves Saint Laurent’s artistic dreams. Available in eight palettes—six in nude tones and two in bold shades—each palette is enriched with coffee bean, sweet almond, and cactus oils.
Nourishment and Calm
Lierac Paris launches the Body Nutri collection, featuring skincare products enriched with plant oils and shea butter at a 7% concentration, catering to all skin types, including sensitive skin. The line includes a rejuvenating body lotion, a balm for dry areas, and a body scrub with almond shell powder and brown sugar.
Additionally, the brand presents an After-Sun Sorbet, an anti-aging face cream that hydrates, soothes, and leaves a radiant finish. With a velvet-like texture, the sorbet contains 97% natural ingredients, including red algae extract, hazel extract, avocado oil, shea butter, and shimmer particles.
Sculpting with Makeup
Facial contouring continues to trend, and Careline introduces new products for effortless, sun-kissed looks. The Full Coverage Contour allows for precise sculpting, creating a silky, smooth finish, while the Sun Kissed Skin Bold Primer, hypoallergenic with light-reflecting pigments, evens and bronzes the complexion.
London Comes to Tel Aviv
Hackett London, the renowned British fashion brand, opens a second store in Israel at Ramat Aviv Mall. Known for its versatile British style, the brand offers tailored pants, sweaters, coats, and cozy accessories, appealing to both men and women. With ties to luxury sports and automobiles, Hackett London collaborates with Aston Martin and is the official outfitter for Formula E 2024, showcasing a special sports collection.
Shopping with Purpose
Ahinoam Association, dedicated to promoting social equality, offers gift sets from Galilee, including award-winning olive oil, natural honey, and artisanal olive oil-based soaps. The olive trees, some over 120 years old, are tended in the family-owned Adraee grove, with all proceeds supporting initiatives for equal opportunities and scholarships for first-generation students.
Comforting Carbs
On a cold or gloomy day, comforting carbs are unbeatable. Pasta Italiana, imported by Wilifood, introduces a new range of refrigerated pasta, including lasagna sheets, tagliatelle, cheese tortellini, eggplant and mozzarella ravioli, and ricotta and spinach tortellini. Each requires just four minutes of boiling. Complementing these are tomato-based sauces available in pureed, whole, and diced versions.
Spanish Flavors
Pairing wine with pasta is a classic choice, and Yashirko’s wine division launches Santalba Vina Hermosa Blanco, a white wine from Spain’s Rioja region. Made from Viura grapes, the wine has a bright, citrusy aroma with a smooth, slightly sweet finish.
Size Matters
Pizza Hut introduces a limited edition of family-sized favorites: Malawach Pizza—a twist on the classic Malawach with rich pizza toppings and cheese; Cheese Ziva—a creamy cheese-filled pastry; and Chocolate Ziva—a delightful chocolate dessert. Behind these creations is Gilad Ventura, Vice President of Sales, who is passionate about bringing fresh, innovative food experiences to customers.
