Add This Chic French Accessory to Your Paris Shopping List

pocket mirror

As editors, stylists, and It girls descend on Paris for fashion month’s final stop, most will undertake a cherished seasonal ritual: stocking up on beauty essentials that can be found only in the City of Light. Whether they’re getting Homeoplasmine’s cult salve or Buly’s scented candles, no one, it seems, leaves empty-handed. This season, there’s a new addition to the city’s unofficial beauty shopping list: Liwan’s pocket mirrors.

The slightly off-kilter, oval-shaped reflectors, offered in shiny black, deep red, and a sleek gray, are handmade in Lebanon from Plexiglas, which means they’re unbreakable—an essential quality for dashing between shows or hopping on transatlantic flights home. Sold in Liwan’s Saint-Germain outpost, a stone’s throw from Café de Flore, the compact mirrors are perfect for a discreet midday touchup. But then again, between the sculptural shapes and the one-of-a-kind striped pouches they come in, there’s no need to keep them hidden away.

55 euros; Liwan, 8 rue Saint-Sulpice, Paris 75006
