In case you are needing more hand cream and you're feeling flush: Byredo's latest round of limited editions. "Hand Cream Collector's Edition. Its 30ml aliminium tube is fondly reminiscent of an artist’s paint and convenient to carry around. A meltingly rich salve in three iconic fragrances – Mojave Ghost, Rose Of No Man’s Land and Bal D’Afrique – are contained within pop coloured, polka dotted tubes, in an elevated expression of gleeful irreverence." $43 at Byredo.

Yet another item in Diptyque's upcoming (due in early June, although a number of the items are already out in stores) Summer Essentials collection celebrating the brand’s 60th anniversary (and this isn't even the last lemming-worthy product): a reissue of Vinaigre de Toilette multi-use fragranced tonic, originally introduced in 1975. "The iconic Vinagre de Toilette is reinvented for the summer with an infusion of plants from the Mediterranean basin. With aromatic notes of lavender, rosemary and thyme, its fragrance refreshes and soothes the senses. Its uses are many: it softens bath water for a relaxing soak; after a shave or a shower, it tones and invigorates the skin. Add a few drops to the final rinse after shampooing to leave hair soft, glossy and lightly scented. At home, infuse it in boiling water to purify the air in a room. The artist Luke Edward Hall's colour illustrations decorate this limited edition. The bottle also features a genuine sprig of lavender, evoking the Mediterranean inspiration behind the composition." $80 for 200 ml at Saks.

You can pre-order a 100 ml tube now at Vacation for $20, or skip the SPF and just buy 30 ml of the Eau de Toilette for $60, or read more about the project at Fast Company.
