Beyoncé has kicked off her Cowboy Carter World Tour and Queen Bey is serving up a ton of surprises to go along with her must-see show.
One of them is the release of Cé Lumière, her new fragrance that’s available exclusively at Ulta.com for a limited time. Previously only available on her official website, the arrival of Cé Lumière at Ulta is part of the superstar singer’s larger partnership with the beauty store, which has been named the “Official Beauty Retail Partner” of the Cowboy Carter Tour.
For a limited time, fans can also get a free “mystery gift” with purchase of Cé Lumière at Ulta.com. This is an online-only bonus gift so you can’t find it in stores.

BEYONCÉ-APPROVED
Cé Lumière Eau de Parfum
So what exactly does Cé Lumière — and presumably Beyoncé — smell like? While the eau de parfum’s name translates to “This Light” or “In the Light” in French, the scent is surprisingly dark and sophisticated, rather than being dainty and well, light.
Beyoncé perfume features top notes of Madagascar black pepper and Italian mandarin, with the spiciness of the pepper helping to tone down the brightness of the citrus (and vice-versa). In other words, a quick spritz won’t tickle your nose with anything too strong or too sweet, and the scent is more grounded rather than being overly “juicy.”
The main notes you’ll smell are of jasmine, and rhubarb, which makes for an interesting pairing. Why? Because while jasmine is soft, floral and delicate, the addition of rhubarb brings an earthy, herbaceous quality to the fragrance. Base notes of patchouli and musk are classic fragrance add-ons that add richness, woodiness and complexity. Reddit users agree, with one writing that “it gives off a wealthy vibe.”
The Cé Lumière Eau de Parfum was created in France and completely crafted and nosed by Beyoncé, and we could totally picture — nay, smell — her wearing it too. The music star doesn’t give off light and airy vibes, nor do we see her wearing anything sugary sweet, and Cé Lumière is neither of those things. The conventionally masculine notes of patchouli and black pepper also play into Beyoncé’s boldness and strength, holding down the fragrance just like the singer holds down her family and those close to her (it also helps Cé Lumière work as a unisex fragrance — I would totally wear it, even as a guy!)

If there’s one thing we know about Beyoncé, it’s that her work is multi-layered, and the same thinking went into this perfume. The singer isn’t a one-hit wonder and this isn’t a one-note wonder either, with all the ingredients working together to create an elegant and evocative potion that’s sure to leave a lasting impression. And if it’s good enough for Beyoncé, it’s good enough for us.
Cé Lumière follows the release of Beyoncé’s Cé Noir in 2023 and her first fragrance, Heat, in 2010.

If you’re a fan of super-shiny lips and glittery eyeshadows that capture the light, the disco glam trend is for you.
This trend has been showing up everywhere from music videos and movies to red carpets and at music festivals — it’s even transcended from a nighttime trend to an around-the-clock option. Celebrity makeup artist Hannah Jaclyn created a stunning disco glam looks on Miley Cyrus in the past, similar to the one seen in her new “Something Beautiful” music video. We spoke with different makeup artists to find out how to create this look so you can try out the trend for yourself.
How to Create a Disco Lip Look
To create a more sheer but glitter-heavy look, Jaclyn starts with a lip oil that helped smooth the lips so that the base was hydrated and devoid of any flakiness or texture. From there, she uses Jouer’s lip topper, which is super shiny and incredibly long-lasting.

If you want even more depth and shine, Urban Decay’s head of global artistry Steve Kassajikian explains how to use eyeshadow on the lips. While it may seem odd, he suggests starting by setting your lips with a translucent setting powder before applying your favorite lipstick. “Then take a loose or pressed glitter eyeshadow and press it against the lips with your finger and finish it off with a gloss,” Kassajikian told Billboard. “For depth, you can line the lips as well to give the glitter a bit of dimension.”

Kassajikian notes that liquid lipsticks are often known for their long-lasting qualities, so they may be the best option for music festivals when you need real staying-power. Here are the products recommended by Jaclyn and Kassajikian.

Both Jaclyn and Kassajikian suggest applying a base layer to the lid, either a cream or liquid eyeshadow or a primer intended specifically for the lids. This not only helps the glitter pop, but it will help the shadows really stick and prevent fallouts. “You can also use a powder glitter first and then use a liquid glitter on top with a fluffy eyeshadow brush,” says Kassajikian.
From there, press powder shadows into the lid with your fingertip or a dense flat brush. If you’re partial to a brush, Kassajikian suggests spraying it with a setting spray before dipping it in the shadow. To further prevent fallouts, apply a layer of translucent setting powder under the eyes so that any glittery particles can be swept away with a brush. Kassajikian also notes that liquid eyeshadow formulas can be easier to use and more long-lasting. Here are product recommendations from both artists.

After returning to their hotel one night, the sisters’ penthouse is the target of a frightening jewel heist. Investigators believe the robbery was an inside job and rumors spread that Roxy secretly planned and staged the crime. Will the sisters put aside their lust for the spotlight … or will they let their temptation for fame tear them apart for good?”
