I first tried Kerastase Le Gloss Glaze Drops in my sister’s bathroom this past summer, and the scent reminded me of Lancome’s Idole Power, which reminds me of Guidance. Love it or hate it, but Guidance has taken the world by storm, and one day we will talk about it the way we talk about Santal 33… it’ll be duped and everywhere. People will remember where they first smelled it and how they came to love it and in what form. Of course, people loved the Glaze Drops, and especially love how they smell, and a big company like L’Oreal (which owns Kerastase) is quick on its feet and has the data and resources to turn a customer request into a reality – and so we now have the Kerastase Gloss Absolue Le Parfum. It’s a gorgeous little bottle that delivers the scent of the Gloss line so you can extend it. It’s a hair perfume, which makes it safe to spray in your hair, but works equally well on your skin or clothes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The scent? Woody by way of an industrial sandalwood and cosmetic-lab patchouli. The vibe here is confident and powerful, you’re know what you’re doing and will get things done. A couple of sprays and you’ll get whiffs it throughout the day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here is some space-age packaging from Lancome. They’ve thought about packaging that attracts the eye but also works, and all of these are just glowing. It’s almost as if they’re hinting at the glow you could also have if you use them. We are in the era of chasing glass skin and what you need is products that hydrate and leave a sheen on the skin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
