Delilah Cosmetics
Originating from their love for beauty, Delilah Cosmetics began when three friends combined their passion to help women look and feel truly beautiful (cute). Rupert Kingston, Hannah Nicholson and Juliet White are the brains behind the brand, coming together from three very different industries to launch Delilah. Driven by the lack of boutique British brands, the trio were inspired by a number of quintessentially British influences, including:
Britannia Metal: A traditional semi-precious metal, Britannia Metal is a pewter-coloured material that inspired the packaging of the Delilah Cosmetics range.
Crown Gold Accents: Introduced by Henry VIII, Crown Gold Accents were originally used to replace the gold sovereign and now take pride and place among the Delilah product collection.
Delilah Rose: Perhaps the truest symbol of iconic British beauty and now the symbol of Delilah Cosmetics.
Paraben-free and cruelty-free, Delilah Cosmetics offer a collection of carefully formulated cosmetics that provide women with a touch of understated luxury.
