@laurennnxox I've been meaning to swatch the Lancome Jason Wu palette forever now but I'm a victim of product overload again. I did find this post by Weekend Ramblings with swatches. HTHs!

I had, too. So I when I finally figured out a way to get it w/o going through "grey market" channels, I was all over it.

Hmmmm.... I have Epatant. They're definitely close. Textures are different, obviously, but I think Erika F might actually be a teensy bit more sparkly. I'll have to swatch them side by side at some point and see.

Yes I was talking just about the color. Texture is totally different.

Does anyone know if the new Hypnose Volume-a-Porter mascara is set for a US release? Or is that going to be a Euro-exclusive?

Have you heard good things about it? The reviews I've been reading seem to be favorable. I'm due for a new tube soon, and I'm trying to decide if I want to stick w/ my usual Hypnose Drama or if I want to waite for Volume-a-Porter.

Oh wow this is the first I've heard of this, exciting news! I love Hypnose and Hypnose Drama so this should be interesting

Here's a comparison between Erika F and Epatant. They're quite similar, but Epatant definitely pulls more grey/silver on me, while Erika F holds a more taupe/olive cast to it. Erika F pulls out the color of my eyes a bit more (they're a light green), but Epatant might be higher impact in general.

Yeah, I stopped by a Lancome counter last night and the guy had no idea about the new Hypnose, so I showed him a few blog posts from some of the UK and Euro beauty bloggers and he was all "AHHHHH! I want that mascara now!"

Still excited about the eyeshadow palette. And now I want to see more about the Visionnaire day cream and night treatment!

that looks beautiful on you

about the packaging i have never experienced this and I have about 25 lancome lipsticks. maybe it's packaging for a different market that has a flaw?

Thanks! I kept meaning to take a pic and show you but haven't had a chance with good lighting and being home.

Australia gets the made in France products generally (an SA told me one of the USA powders was released here and occasionally this kind of thing has happened).

The lipsticks I have this issue with are Made in France. Luckily it hasn't caused any to break or anything, which has happened to me with some MAC lippies with a softer texture. If it damages the lipstick too much I'll be taking it back to the Counter.
