Amazing would be an understatement to describe famed designer Christian Louboutin’s new foray into beauty: Resembling a delicate vial Queen Nefertiti might have treasured, this lipstick tube-meets-objet d’art takes inspiration from Babylonian antiquities with a turret-like crown cap and pointed gold base. Available in three finishes—Silky Satin, Velvet Matte, and Sheer Voile—the 38 colors in the range are derived from the house’s most iconic shoes and handbags. (Think borderline-black burgundies, delicate nudes, and of course, iconic crimson.) While some may say that applying lipstick in public is a beauty taboo, this bullet is meant to be worn around your neck as a pendant after you swipe it across your mouth—making for easy access should you need a touch-up.

$90 each; available in September at christianlouboutin.com
