For years I've been in awe of Chantecaille, the ultra-luxe cosmetic and skincare brand known for creating these amazing, wild-life-inspired beauty compacts that give back to the environment (known as "cause-metics"). Chantecaille launched in 1997 as a small fragrance house, but without a website(!) and aside from the impossibly chic Chantecaille family members appearing in the society pages of Vogue, the brand has been mostly clouded in mystery. Until now: Chantecaille.com, an e-commerce and information site, launches today. Not only can you peruse the brand's indulgent skincare, makeup and fragrances, but you can also find out about the enigmatic family behind the brand, the New York-based Chantecailles: Sylvie, founder and French matriarch (who previously founded Prescriptives), and daughters Olivia and Alex, as well as their extensive charitable efforts to protect endangered species. My American friends, take note: as of June 26, when the site goes live, there's free shipping on everything for a full month.
