Lancome Product Reviews

Hey everyone!

Recently, I received a package from Lancome containing a few of their products including their new French Nude palette! Now, you all know me well enough by now to know that I am a huge Lancome fan. Their products generally work amazingly well, and I have not been disappointed yet.

French Nude Palette - This palette has all the colors and shades you need to create a flawless day to night look! I love to use the lighter shades during the day, and deepen it up at night by smoking it out with the more intense brown hues. All of the colors are very pigmented, and they glide onto your skin like butter. My favorite shade in the palette has to be the champagne shimmer one, because it gives your lids a beautiful, healthy glow!

Little Blue Dress Single Shadow - This shadow is a stunning sheer, denim shade with a hint of sparkle. You can either do a wash of this over your lids, or pack it on for a more intense look.This shadow is great to have on hand to help smoke out certain evening eye looks, because it does have a touch of grey to it when blended!

Hypnose Star Mascara - Can I rave enough about this mascara? I think not! This mascara is one of the few on the market that doesn't clump together my lashes. Just make sure you remove any access product off the wand, and you're good to go. I find that one coat gives me a natural lash, while two coats adds the length and volume most girls love. This is a mascara that is fun to play with, and it can give you movie star lashes if you learn how to work it right for you!

What do you think of these products?

Lancome Aqua Bleu Nail Polish

Hey everyone!

I have slowly started to become 'that' girl. You know what I'm talking about... the girl that has a nail polish collection over 15 and growing. I have very short nails, and they can be challenging to paint, so I am always on the lookout for a polish that I can use easily, and lasts without chipping! Recently, I was sent a Lancome nail polish from their new Summer 2013 Collection in the shade Aqua Bleu. This is the perfect shade for summer, because it's a beautiful ocean blue. Where's my yacht and Prince Charming? 

I'm waiting... 

Anyways, this nail polish paints like a dream! Two coats were all I needed, the dry time was quick, and the finish was shiny and chip free for over 3 days!

Here is what Lancome has to say:

Inspired by the new trendy Rouge In Love lip collection, Vernis in Love is a high potency nail lacquer perfectly themed to compliment every woman's mood and style. With ultimate brilliance, intense color, and a mistake-free application, your nails will love the lasting shine and pop of color that stays put for days.

Benefits:

~Nails perfectly polished
 
~High shine finish
 
~Easy application 

Technology:

~Multi-Polymers Complex provides a film that protects color and keeps nails perfectly polished.
 
~White Mica Lamellas reflect natural light for a high shine finish.
 
~The grooved stem allows the polish to flow directly to the center, while the elongated, round base distributes uniform color in a single stroke.

This product retails for $15.00, and can be purchased at www.lancome.com and your local Lancome counters!

Lancome Eye Brightening All-In-One 5 Shadow & Liner Palette Review

Hey everyone!

I have been slowly adding more high end brands to my makeup collection, and one of my favorites is Lancome! Recently, I got sent these three gorgeous Eye Brightening All-In-One Shadow & Liner Palettes to try out and review for you!

These palettes are simply stunning. I love their color combinations, mixture of textures, and that they include everything I need for quick and easy eye looks day or night! I find that the shadows last on me for a good 4 hours before creasing; however, if I use a base, I can get all day wear from them. Each palette comes with a handy little guide to show you how to create day and night looks.

~Peach Opulence

~Plum Splendor

~Emerald Decadence

Here is what Lancome has to say:

~Wet Pour Process, a Japanese technology, delivers a supremely silky, vivid and long-lasting shadow. The technology works by combining loose pigments and solvent, which are poured into a pain and lightly pressed. As the solvent evaporates, the shadow become a sold. Traditional shadows are hard-pressed, which can crush pearls and deliver less color pay-off.

~Thanks to this process, the Color Design Eye Brightening All-In-One 5 Shadow & Liner Palette shades are luxuriously smooth with high-potency color. The powders off excellent glide and slip.

~Vitamin E delivers antioxidant protection against the environment.

~Each palette contains an all-over color, lid color, crease color, highlighter, and liner.

~Can be applied wet or dry.

These palettes retail for $48.00, and can be purchased at Lancome counters nationwide and at www.lancome-usa.com!

Lancome Hypnose Star Mascara in Noir Midnight

Hey everyone!

The holiday party season is here! That means it's time to flutter those flirty lashes under the mistletoe, and kiss your mister right! One great tool to use to get your lashes ready is Lancome's Hypnose Star Mascara in Noir Midnight. This mascara will give your eyes that Hollywood glam look instantly!

Inspired by the sensuous femininity of 1930's Hollywood films, Lancome's new Hypnose Star exudes theatrical glamour like no other. Encased in a sparkling sequined tubed, the volumizing mascara coats lases in a sumptuously decadent formula that makes for a spotlight-stealing gaze. A dual-sided brush creates ultra-glam eyes, by building intense volume at the lash link and finishing with alluring length and curl.

Who better to capture Hypnose Star's essence than longtime Lancome model Daria Werbowy and the playfully mischievous Betty Boop? The first-ever comic heroine, Boop's flirtatiously long eyelashes and "boo-boo-bee-boo" catchphrase have come to typify the eternally youthful spirit of old Hollywood ingenue. Together, these icons for an irresistible duo.

Features:

~Flat and oblique-sided brush wand. The two flat sides load lashes with mascara, while the longer fibers of the oblique sides separate, lengthen and curl.

~Triangular shape. Reach long and baby lashes with ease thanks to this unique shape.

~Two types of wax. A blend of soft waxes swathe lashes in volume, while carnauba wax sets pin-up model curl.

This product retails for $28.00, and is available at Lancome counters and Sephora stores nationwide!
