Ahhh. Luxurious Lancôme.

When I was first “allowed” to wear makeup, I drooled over the department store makeup counters. I was always afraid to go up to the Lancôme counter, as I thought it was beyond my reach, price wise. It stuck out from the other department stores as more higher end. It was luxury.

While I now know that Lancôme is within my reach, and comparable in price to most other department store brands, one thing I was not wrong about is that Lancôme is luxury.

My luxurious Lancôme has one of the prettiest Summer eye palettes on the counters now. This palette is from Lancôme’s Summer Tropiques collection, titled Color Design Survival Palette. There are two color combinations for this four shadow palette. One is Summer Tropiques, which includes a beautiful green, a lilac pink, a pure pink, and a nude color. The other is named Bronzed Captive, and includes the sleekest sky blue, a nude color, a taupe, and a pretty peach.

One look at this palette will have you hooked. The palette itself, made with beautiful pearlescent shells, is what inspired the shades in each palette.

Color Design Survival Palette retails for $42.00 is available at Lancôme counters and online now.
