Dolce & Gabbana, the iconic luxury fashion house known for its Italian romance and classic aesthetics, has launched its Devotion makeup collection in Israel. The collection includes 11 meticulously designed products that blend traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern innovation. Each item comes in packaging as elegant as a piece of jewelry, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable.
Dolce & Gabbana entered the beauty industry in 2009 with a vision to bring Italian culture and aesthetics to the world of cosmetics. In 2016, their beauty division was sold to Shiseido, but in 2023, the brand regained full control over its beauty line. The new collection emphasizes the brand’s Italian heritage, offering luxurious designs and high-quality ingredients.

- Sicilian Avocado: Packed with vitamins and natural oils that hydrate and soften the skin.

The Devotion collection includes 11 makeup products, each presented in luxurious, glossy gold packaging. Opening these products feels like unveiling a jewelry box—each item features a heart symbol that stands as a work of art in itself, meticulously crafted, substantial, and made from quality metal, not cheap plastic. The light fragrance accompanying the products adds an additional layer of sophistication.

Mascara
Enriched with Calabrian oranges and antioxidants, this mascara promises both volume and lash health, while strengthening them with panthenol extract, which provides moisture and has anti-inflammatory properties. The mascara is very liquid, very black, and note that it takes a few minutes to dry. The wait is probably worth it, as the formula lifts and curls the lashes effortlessly, and they stay that way all day. One coat is enough, but if you have the patience to apply a second, you’ll experience the best lash day you’ve had since the last time you wore false eyelashes. Price: NIS 149
Perfume
The perfume is intriguing—not sweet, nor overly citrusy. It is composed of a blend of sweet citrus, orange blossom, and vanilla, with a scent that somewhat resembles lemon pie or cookies, providing a warm and pleasant feeling. In our opinion, it is more suitable as a winter fragrance, and take note—it’s not a generic perfume that will suit everyone.
Luminizer
This is a subtle highlighter that blends well with the skin and is not overly bright. In fact, its shade will likely suit almost every skin tone, except for the darkest and the lightest. Its formula is also enriched with Italian grapes, and it provides just the right amount of illumination to highlight the high points of the face. Price: NIS 229
Liquid Matte Lipsticks
Developing a liquid lipstick that doesn’t dry out your lips is no easy task, and Dolce & Gabbana have nailed it. The shades are also very realistic—you won’t find any strange purples or colors that most women would never wear. All nine shades range from nudes, peaches, browns, and reds, but in wearable tones. They are highly durable, comfortable to wear, and stay in place—even in the shower. Yes, we tested that. They also contain Sicilian avocado extracts to nourish and keep the lips hydrated, and it seems to work. Price: NIS 169
Available in Israel
The collection is available at Super-Pharm, Hamashbir Lazarchan, and Factory 54.
