I have some really exciting news to share with you Iโm not even sure where to begin because itโs the culmination of so many ideas, dreams, and moments coming together.
Let me start by talking about the wonderful team at Free People. They have been such an incredible retail partner to Madame Gabriela. I have always admired their ability to really understand beauty trends and consumer needs, and their approach to curating products is nothing short of inspiring. With a strong network of influencers, researchers, and team members, they truly know whatโs in demand and how to translate it into experiences for their customers. So, I was absolutely thrilled when the Free People team became enamored with the formula of our lipsticks and started brainstorming how we could create something uniquely tailored for their community.
And thatโs where the idea for our new and exclusive shade, Tulum at 6PM, began.
The shade is inspired by my love for Tulumโa place that holds special meaning for me as a proud Mexican. Itโs not just any shade of pink; itโs a nod to the vibrant sunsets that paint the sky in a spectrum of warm pinks and soft corals around 6 PM. Thereโs something about that moment when day turns into night, and everything is awash in a glowing hue thatโs both invigorating and serene.
But thereโs more to the story. Since launching Madame Gabriela, I have received countless emails from people saying they love the soft, wearable tones of our signature nude, Sydney at 8AM, but wanted to see something with just a touch more pinkโa shade thatโs subtle but radiant and perfect for every skin tone. They wanted something that has a bit more pop for those with darker features, while still maintaining that effortless elegance. And thatโs exactly how Tulum at 6PM was born!
With the same clean, non-toxic, and nourishing ingredients youโve come to loveโlike our UMF 15+ Mฤnuka honey, shea butter, avocado oil, and other skin-loving botanicalsโthis formula not only enhances your lips but keeps them feeling hydrated and cared for. Itโs truly everything youโd want in a light pink lipstick, reimagined in a way thatโs true to our ethos of healthy beauty.
I am incredibly grateful and proud to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Free People on creating this unique shade. Itโs a beautiful blend of our shared values, my heritage, and your feedback.
Tulum at 6PM is now availableย at FreePeople.com. I hope you love it as much as I do!
