Founded in 2004 in Los Angeles by cosmetic historian and designer Gabriela Hernandez, Bésame Cosmetics is a vintage-inspired beauty brand that revives the glamour of the golden age of cinema. Hernandez, who immigrated from Buenos Aires and was fascinated by her grandmother's sophisticated beauty rituals, created the brand to honor the enduring elegance of classic beauty. Bésame is best known for its historically accurate, highly pigmented lipsticks, cake mascaras, and finely milled face powders, all housed in ornate, gold-plated and refillable packaging that evokes the 1920s through the 1970s.
