Lancôme Bright Expert Intense Brightening Spot Correcting Serum.

I wish there was a spot treatment cream that would instantly fade my age spots. Until that is available, I will continue to use fading treatments, including one of my new favorites from Lancôme. From the Bright Expert line, this is the Intense Brightening Spot Correcting Serum.

 Unique Lancôme technology targets damaged surface cells to reduce the appearance of dark spots, while a combination of Vitamin CG and botanical extracts helps even out and brighten the complexion.

This creamy serum is easy to use. A tiny bit is all that is needed. I squeeze out a tiny dot onto my age spot(s) …read more

Are You Into the New High Tech Mascaras?

I wrote a post on Beautiful Makeup Search about all of the new high tech mascaras that has gotten a bit of attention. Excuse the duplicate information if you read me over there, but I was wondering how more of you felt.
Maybe I am old, or old fashioned. Or maybe I am pretty good at applying my mascara, because I am not so sure about all of these new mascaras.

The madness began when companies started making giant wands and huge brushes, a la Benefit’s BADgal and the newer CoverGirl’s LashBlast. Then there are the rubber-like brushes, a …read more

Is it Too Early to Talk About Holiday Luxuries?

I apologize. With the warm weather still here, and the pumpkins just starting to show up on doorsteps, it is hard to think about the Holidays. But they are fast approaching, and I have so much in store, that I cannot wait to share. Like the ultimate fabulous shopping list!
Perhaps, it is a bit early. So I will just share one thing with you. This is the ultimate luxury from Lancôme.

Lancôme has teamed up with Goyard, the prestige luggage-maker, to create an exquisite, hand-crafted makeup case. The creation of this makeup kit is the result of a collaboration between Goyard …read more

Meet the Bright Expert from Lancôme.

Meet the Bright Expert from Lancôme.

It is no secret that I am on a mission to find age spot and freckle faders, and one system I have been using – and loving – is from Lancôme. This is the Bright Expert. Lancôme calls these products a power system, meaning they are meant to be used in conjunction with each other.

I have been using a total of four products in the Bright Expert (power)System.
Unique Lancôme technology targets damaged surface cells to reduce the appearance of dark spots, while a combination of vitamin CG and botanical extracts helps even out and brighten the complexion.
First, I use the …read more

Lady in Red.

My sister is attending an all red event. Yes – Red. You have heard of the Pure White parties where one can only wear white, right? Well this party is a fund raising event wear all the women have to wear red. How fun!
She has the dress and shoes, which match perfectly. She only sports a French manicure, so that’ll work. She just needed some help for her lips.

I came upon a wonderful beauty tip from Ross Burton, National Artistic Director for Lancôme.
To create a dramatic red lip that stays on all night, here’s my best trick: Start by applying …read more

Ahhh. Luxurious Lancôme.

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 …read more

Protect Your Skin from Premature Aging.

Protect Your Skin from Premature Aging.

One of the easiest ways to protect skin from premature aging is by shielding it from things like the sun.
Lancôme just introduced it’s most powerful sun screen moisturizing solutions. It is called UV EXPERT 20 with MEXORYL™ SX. What is so exciting that this was just FDA approved for use in the United States. Mexoryl is an extraordinary, and extremely effective ingredient that protects skin from UVA rays.
It is a face and body sun protection moisturizing cream, with SPF 20. We should be using this each and every morning, before we put our best face forward to face the …read more

What’s In Your Handbag??

What’s In Your Handbag??

How many items of makeup are rolling around in the bottom of your hangbag at this very moment? For some reason, it took me a while to realize that that I could buy an all-in-one compact that contained everything that I needed. Just about every cosmetic company carries them, so you won’t have to look very hard.
Actually the one I have, I picked up on a flight (duty free). It was from Lancome and it had everything from lipstick to mascara and everything in between. I lucked out there.
