Lancome Love

Anyone have any Lancome love?

I don't have a ton of Lancome, but I absolutely love their now discontinued brow powder compact, and I recently purchased and have really been liking the Duo Finish Powder. Their eye shadows are also really nice with a great soft texture.

Just wondering if anyone else had any Lancome favorites...

Yay someone else loves Lancome! I always wanted to try some of the Lancome face products and I kind of thought that they had something in my range but didn't want to ask least I be embarrassed if they didn't. I'm glad I finally inquired.

Mannequin is my new favorite eye shadow of the moment. Pretty and neutral, yet unique and great for everyday quick looks.

And I really want a free gift or a "only fill-in-the-blank dollars with a such-and-such purchase" gift now. I think May is when the next GWP will roll around. Didn't they have the blue brushes a while back?

I have tons of lancome as well. Their mascaras and foundations are what I tend to stick with. I've never tried mac's mascara, and for some reason when I tried to get matched up with their foundation, the woman helping me suggested face and body foundation. I wasn't a huge fan of that.

I just bought their new LE Pop and Cheeks blush and I adore it! It gives me this healthy pink glow.. It looks so natural!

I love their mascara and the color fever & la laque glosses. I haven't tried any lipsticks, but those are on my buy list.

The la laque liquid liner is hands down my favorite liquid liner EVER. I'm not a pro at putting on liquid, but this one isn't difficult at all. It has a wet patent leather shine to it that I love. I've tried numerous liquid liners that dry down to an off black or dull black when dry, but not this one- it stays very dark. I layer it over my gel liner when I want a dramatic black line. I've never bought more than one liquid liner from the same brand before, but my search stops here. Hmmm maybe I need to double check that it wasn't LE.


I also want to try this lippie next- (pic from temptalia)

I have a face product on my future buy list, but I don't recall the name at the moment.

I hate their artliner, chips on me. But I do like their lipsticks for neutral shades. The selection isn't as overwhelming as MAC :p I like their lipsticks in pale lip and rose defile.

Yeah Lancome Macys will have a gift in May. It's a big blue tote bag filled with stuff (lippies, another eye palette, and other things) and the step up gift with $70 or more purchase is your choice of their full size eye mascara primer, or full size Creme Doucheur makeup remover w/ full size toner (alcohol free one), OR a full size Creme Radiance cleanser w/ Tonique Radiance toner. One of the girls showed me this the other day and I was like wow....so much stuff their giving out for free! Yeah they did have blue brushes but I think those were limited edition cause I have not seen them at the counter in my store. But def take a peek at their foundation! I love the mineral foundation (both regular and vibrating one) Teint Idole, and I can't wait to try the new Teint Idole Fresh Wear one.

i mostly buy my lancome supplies when macys have a free gwp. but i'm definitely a fan of their lash primer, mascaras, and concealers. i sort of like their palettes but their shadows gets all of the palette when i lightly use my brush on it.

I love star bronzer powder, my HG bronzer/contour powder. I love cils booster XL mascara primer, I use it every day. Also lipsticks and lipglosses are adorable. My new loves are la laque fevers

Lancome was one of the first "high end" brands I started buying when I finally had enough money, so they have a special place in my heart

I'll have to look for that LaLaque liner - I've been on the lookout for a good liquid liner lately.

Favorite product - well right now it's the mineral foundation - the Oscillation one. It's AMAZING - it just makes my skin glow. Even on days I dont want a mineral foundation, I still use a light dusting of it as a finishing powder, because it just makes my skin look so good. I'm afraid they're going to discontinue it - I want to grab a few more just in case.

Their gloss is nice - I loved the Star gloss but thats d/c now, so I use the Color Fever gloss. Right now tho to be honest I'm in love with L'Oreal's Infallible glosses.

I get a pretty decent discount at Lancome. I really love their eyeshadows and the mascara. The oscillation mascara leaves a lot to be desired. But, I really love their Defincils. OMG!!!! A-mazing.

I went to a beauty/makeup trend show today and they had tons of Lancome stuff that I got to try out. Some thoughts that I wrote in my blog and will reproduce here.. my hand is all cramped from taking notes like mad during the presentations!

Lancome's newest thing seems to be their youth-activating serum, GENEFIQUE

P255528_hero.jpg


On my skin it looks like this:

IMG_4610.jpg


A bit background on Lancome---they began in 1935 and began with fragrance and later started a cosmetics/skincare line and they have always been top selling in cosmetics in America and all over the world. This youth-activating concentrate is supposed to be the result of a decade of research and the technology within have 7 different patents! It's supposed to activate special proteins that renew your skin and keep your skin tight and un-blemished and regenerate, and as we get older those proteins stop working so hard and this makes them work better. The line includes both serums and moisturizers for differing needs.

All blended out and absorbed. It absorbed really fast.

I haven't used this yet, because obviously I'm very young and my skin renews itself wonderfully, but on my hand (Which I don't use sunscreen or any sort of moisturizer on at all, so it's nasty and wrinkly already), it certainly did make my skin more supple, smooth, and silky. It felt very good but I'm not sure that I would pay $84 for this serum unless I had a very generous sample and saw that it really worked over the long term.

Yeah I'm really liking the Genifique line. I had a sample of a the serum and it is awesome! And their night repair moisturizer is awesome too. I have pretty oily skin and at night when I put the night repair on it does feel a little heavy but I have not broken out and my skin glows in the morning. I am pre-selling that for the gift and I am getting the set they have that has the serum, eye cream, and a makeup remover. I have heard the eye cream is the bomb so I am trying it out in the set and I will see how it does.

Please come back and let us know how the products worked for you SmokeSignal, I have been having a hard time deciding which big $$$ skincare purchase I should go for first. I've read about the night cream, I think I'll give that a try first before buying another product.

Love color fever stuff! Which one did you get? I went into Sephora and saw Electric Pink for the first time- so pretty! I had only seen it in pictures before. That will be my next one.


I just realized I have never tried Juicy tubes before. Which is crazy since I love gloss, especially shiny ones. I just never got around to them. I was stuck on the Beauty Rush glosses from VS since they were so colorful and cheap.

Are the juicy tubes worth the price? I've been trying to stop using so much plain gloss but I still have room in my stash for one or two.

I ♥ Color Fever too! I got CF Shine lipstick in 100 (Apricot Haze) and CF Gloss 102 Sublime Toffee Lips...cos I am on this peach/coral/orange thing for summer!

Juicy Tubes....I have sworn that I will not buy them again. I used to buy them all the time when I first got into makeup, and they were the real big thing at the time. I bought them everywhere I went, and the Christmas sets, and new releases etc....But then I found them too thick/sticky, and too sheer to justify purchasing once I discovered more pigmented glosses. Now, compared to everything else I have in my lip collection, I like these the least. For the price of one JT, I can get a few more good sheer glosses. I swatched a couple at the counter yesterday but they didn't wow me....so they are a no for me

BUT it's worth having at least one, just because :)
