Many people don’t know this, but there are actually a handful of Lancome boutiques in the States. There’s a gorgeous one on the Upper West Side in NYC (conveniently across the street from Magnolia Bakery and Intermix!), where they not only stock more Lancome products and shades than I’ve ever seen, but they have two treatment rooms in the back. In addition to adding a slew of new spokespeople (including Julia Roberts and Penelope Cruz), Lancome has a bunch of new products out right now. I checked some of them out last week and below are the stand-outs!
Lancome Genifique Youth Activating Cream Serum ($84) We loved the concentrate; we loved the eye cream; now we’ve got a serum to round out the family:-) It’s light and moisturizing and works particularly well in the mornings to wake-up tired faces. More after the jump!
Definicils Precious Cells ($29) – this will give you serious volume. Just apply with moderation or you’ll get clumps!
Juicy Tubes 100% Natural Origins ($18) – in celebration of 10 years of Juicy Tubes, Lancome has launched a high-gloss limited edition shade formulated with honey. The formula, flavors, and pigments are 100% natural origin and preservative-free (they come in four shades).
Lancome Flash Bronzer Anti-Age Tinted Anti-Age Self-Tanning Face Lotion SPF 15 ($36) – tinted with natural caramel extract, its got micro-pearls for a light-reflecting effect, Vitamin E for its antioxidant protection, and SPF 15 for UVA and UVB protection.
I love that image of Julia! She’s gorgeous.
Could she possibly BE any more beautiful??? (That’s a rhetorical question, by the way.)Does anyone know what exact Lancome colors she’s wearing in the photo? (other than the fact that makeup artists ALWAYS mix colors for the perfect blend!!)
