Paul & Joe Beaute began in 2002, so it’s their ten year anniversary this year. Designer, Sophie Albou named it for her two sons, Paul and Joe. I have some of the very first lipsticks and eye shadows they ever produced but I can’t find anywhere on line to date them. I think they must be from maybe the second or third collection, but I don’t think the very first.
As you can see, they’ve stayed pretty true to type over ten years, with each product reflecting a material design from the Paul & Joe fashion collection. At the time of launch, there had been nothing even vaguely similar so it was very exciting.
This one (above) is my all-time favourite, followed closely by the design below. In fact, a friend bought me the make up bag in the same design so I have the entire set.

I don’t have anything that early – so jealous! I think they’re from 2003-2004. You can go to the Paul & Joe website, they have a “Collection Sparkles” archive to see exactly which collection they’re from, if you’re curious. 🙂 Click on About Paul & Joe, then click on Beaute x Fashion and click on the archive.
Thanks! that is so useful.. have been in the archive and looked..yes, 2003! now of course, I am desperate for 2002!
They always have the nicest packaging. Thats so cool you have so many of their early lipsticks.
Sooo gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing! 🙂 I’d be lovely to see some swatches as well unless.. you have never swatched them due to their cute design. 😉
So pretty, Paul & Joe is one of those brands I could buy JUST for the packaging but the products are great too.
Oooh! These make me happy just looking at them.
