Check out a few beautiful pictures from Lancome’s spring collection! The trend this spring is pastel colours, and this is right up that alley. The colours are inspired by the garden and the boudoir. The pretty compact you see below is called La Rosaraie. This is a slightly shimmery light pink blush. It barely showed [...]
Lancome is doing something very special this holiday season. Their holiday collection will support Kate Winslet’s charity Golden Hat. The non-profit foundation helps autistic children by removing the barriers that they face. That could mean offering them education, care, job training, or providing recreational activities for them. Lancome will be donating 150,000 euros from the [...]
Lancome’s newest scent is a flanker to its popular Tresor. Tresor in Love is supposed to amplify the floral rose notes in the original and give you a romantic fragrance (as the name suggests). Sadly, the rose just didn’t show up. I guess I should have known: the press material mentions a “candied rose of [...]
I just spent 3 nights and 4 days in a hotel which means that I encountered some intense air conditioning which has left my rather sensitive skin tight and dry. I figured what was in order was a super gentle moisturizer that was basic. I picked up Lancome Hydra Zen Neurocalm Cream-Gel because on a [...]

Thus, [...]
Brand new this August is Lancome’s newest mascara, called Hypnose Doll Mascara. The idea is that it gives you long almost spidery lashes that look like they belong on a doll! It’s a brilliant idea, and I love that they’ve taken one of Lancome’s most popular mascaras and tried to improve it! I think the [...]
This is news. Julia Roberts’ and Christie Turlington’s ads for Lancome were pulled in the UK because they’ve been too airbrushed. The worst part is that Roberts’ contracts demands that Lancome never release pre-airbrushed pictures to anyone, so the company couldn’t even release them to the advertising standards board! What do you think? Would you [...]
Update #2: Lancome has asked me to remove the name of this product as they will reveal it mid-August. You can still have a chance to try the product before anyone else though!
This summer, Lancome has tons of brights in its collection, and among them is the Sarong nail polish. This is a coral red that can look more fuchsia or more orange depending on the lighting. That’s because it has gold and fuchsia shimmer, and so both of those pop when you wear the polish. The [...]
