Rhode x Alexandra Leclerc: Release Date, Shimmer Pocket Pearl & Prices

When Hailey Bieber’s skincare-infused makeup brand Rhode announces a new launch, stock routinely vanishes in minutes. But the brand’s latest drop marks a double milestone: it introduces Rhode’s first-ever foray into reflective shimmer finishes and represents the label’s first co-designed capsule collection, created in collaboration with model, art historian, and Formula 1 personality Alexandra Leclerc.

Titled ‘Rhode <3 Alexandra Leclerc’, the limited-edition five-piece capsule reimagines Rhode's viral complexion staples into travel-ready, purse-clippable miniatures tailored for life on the move.

Scheduled to release worldwide on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, at 9:00 AM PT / 12:00 PM ET, the capsule effortlessly bridges Monaco glamour, clean-girl glazed skin, and cozy autumn warmth.

1. What’s in the Collection? Products, Shades & Prices

The capsule introduces two brand-new formula twists alongside highly collectible lifestyle accessories designed to tap into 2026's viral handbag-charm aesthetic:

1. The Pocket Pearl ($16 each)

A miniature 0.08-ounce evolution of Rhode’s award-winning Pocket Blush, reformulated with fine, light-catching pearlescent micro-shimmer that leaves a radiant, non-glittery glazed flush:

• Monaco: A warm, terracotta bronze nod to Leclerc’s home along the sunlit French Riviera.
• Monet: A delicate, shimmering apricot inspired by Leclerc’s background in classical art history.
• Gemini: A radiant, luminous candy pink named after her astrological star sign.

2. Peptide Lip Tint in 'Sweet Apple' ($20)

A full-sized addition to Rhode’s best-selling Peptide Lip Tint range. It delivers a buildable, golden-brown hue infused with subtle micro-shimmer and a crisp candy apple scent, designed specifically for fall styling and rich autumnal layering.

3. Wearable Bag Charms & Accessories

Tapping into fashion’s viral bag-charm trend, the collection features custom hardware that allows you to clip your blush directly onto your handbag, tote, or belt loop:

• The Rhode Carabiner ($12): A custom 'R'-shaped metal clip featuring a threaded blush-holder cap for instant on-the-go touch-ups.
• The Flutter Charm ($8): A delicate metallic butterfly accent charm co-designed alongside Leclerc.
• Alexandra's Set ($56): Bundles all four items (one Pocket Pearl shade of your choice, Sweet Apple Lip Tint, Flutter Charm, and 'R' Carabiner) in a collectors' embossed pouch.

2. The Muse: Who is Alexandra Leclerc?

Alexandra Leclerc (née Saint Mleux) first entered Rhode’s universe in 2024 as the brand's inaugural muse for its iconic Fall Lip Case campaign.

Educated in 20th-century art history at the prestigious École du Louvre in Paris, Leclerc gained international acclaim through her curated aesthetic platforms, quiet luxury fashion sensibilities, and presence in the Formula 1 paddock alongside her husband, Scuderia Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc.

"It’s a collection that really fits naturally into my lifestyle, which was important. They’re all named around my world: Monaco is my home, I’m very much a Gemini, and I just love Monet. It’s about makeup that looks and feels like skin." — Alexandra Leclerc to Vogue

3. How to Style the Shimmer Look: Expert Application

Unlike heavy holiday glitters or dry powder highlights, the Pocket Pearl formula prioritizes skin-first hydration and natural dewy radiance:

• The Sun-Drenched Technique: Warm the cream blush on the back of your hand, then use a dense, fluffy brush to tap pigment across the high points of the cheekbones and the bridge of the nose for an authentic post-vacation glow.
• Monochromatic Lips & Cheeks: The Pocket Pearl formula can be dabbed onto bare lips with fingertips before layering the Sweet Apple Peptide Lip Tint on top for multi-dimensional shine and peptide-powered hydration.
• Fall Layering: For evening depth, beauty editors recommend layering a sweep of shimmering Monaco terracotta over an existing matte cream bronzer.
