A still life with a function

The Neo aesthetic was created to depart from depleted design formulas set by the cosmetics industry. Two cylindric forms coexist and merge in a way where there is no visual distinction between the lid and the case, allowing the viewers to perceive the object as a whole without boundaries.

The lid is highly functional: it has a built-in magnet that snaps pleasantly into place, and the top has a subtle curvilinear house that allows small accessories and jewelry to be stowed on top. A spherical puff to match was also designed to be placed on the lid so from afar, the object can be registered in the scene as a geometric still life. The LANEIGE Neo Foundation is available in two colorways and finishes: mint (matte) and muted coral pink (glow).
