Lancôme Best Sellers Rakuten Bonus Box Review | November 2018 #RANBonusBox

Press Sample #RANBonusBox (Affiliate Links)

First I must express my heartfelt gratitude, appreciation and thanks to Lancôme and Rakuten Affiliate Network for having selected me, among a mere 30 beauty bloggers to review their utterly amazing Lancôme Rakuten Bonus Box. It is such a privilege and honor to have been among the select few to receive this lovely #RANBonusBox filled with some of Lancôme's iconic best-sellers.

I was actually so impressed when I opened the box that I simply could not conceal my excitement! After I finished doing an effusive happy dance, I tried to settle down to unbox and behold the magnificence of this box of Lancôme best sellers!
This box includes the following full-size Lancôme skincare and makeup products:
 Lancôme Rakuten Bonus Box #RANBonusBox
Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Serum ($78.00 for 1 oz. from Lancôme): Formulated for all types of skin, this anti-aging serum is lightweight and fast-absorbing, and it immediately melts into the skin leaving behind no residue whatsoever. Lancôme describes it as a "fast-acting serum that reveals smoother, more radiant skin in as little as 7 days," and I definitely noticed that my skin was smoother and more radiant after about a week. I have used deluxe samples before and like the way that my skin looks and feels after use, but I will need to use it longer to see if it improves skin tone, firmness and elasticity. I should note that this serum has no detectable scent– despite the fact that fragrance is listed in its ingredients.

According to Lancôme,

A fast-acting anti-aging serum that reveals smoother, more radiant skin in as little as 7 days. No regimen is complete without Advanced Génifique, the first step to every beauty routine. This powerful anti-aging serum works to improve skin's key signs of youth: radiance, elasticity, firmness, skin tone, and smoothness. See visible results in just 7 days. This patented formula, which contains Bifidus extract, helps strengthen and protect skin's moisture barrier. The bottle features an exclusive self-loading dropper for the perfect dosage of serum with every application. This serum is designed for every woman, all skin types, and multiple ethnicities.
Directions: Gently apply onto cleansed face and neck, morning and night. The self-loading dropper gives you the perfect dose every time.  Follow with a moisturizer.

Tips:
• Keep a bottle in the fridge for instant relief after being outside in the sun or wind.
• Mix a drop into your foundation to give a great glow to the skin.
• Put a small drop on to dry lips before you apply lip liner and lipstick to smooth the lines on the lips.

Ingredients: Water, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Glycerin, Alcohol Denat., Dimethicone, Hydroxyethylpiperazine Ethane Sulfonic Acid, Ascorbyl Glucoside, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Benzoate, Phenoxyethanol, Adenosine, Faex Extract/Yeast Extract/Extrait De Levure, Peg-20 Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate, Peg-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Salicyloyl Phytosphingosine, Ammonium Polyacryldimethyltauramide/Ammonium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate, Limonene, Xanthan Gum, Caprylyl Glycol, Disodium Edta, Octyldodecanol, Citronellol, Fragrance. [Active Ingredient: Bifidus extract]
Lancôme Rénergie Lift Multi-Action Light Day Cream ($99.00 for 1.7 oz. from Lancôme): This thick day cream is surprisingly lightweight and fast-absorbing. It has a luscious silky-smooth texture that melts into the skin effortlessly, and leaves it immediately looking and feeling soft, smooth supple, hydrated and moisturized, and those benefits last all day. It includes an SPF 15 for added protection, but since I live in Southern California, I never leave the house wearing anything less than an SPF 30. I should not that it does have a light semi-floral fragrance, but it isn't in the least bit cloying or long-lasting.
According to Lancôme,

Lancôme’s powerful day lightweight cream visibly lifts and tightens all facial zones, blending seamlessly into the skin for a refined, new softness. This bestselling formula works to minimize signs of aging, such as sagging, wrinkles, & fine lines. This lightweight, fresh texture features Vitamin E and provides all-day moisture and hydration. See visibly lifted cheekbones, a tightened jawline and improved definition of all facial contours.
 Directions: Smooth onto clean face and neck daily.
Ingredients: Aqua / Water / Eau, Glycerin, Dimethicone, Isohexadecane, Alcohol Denat., Dipropylene Glycol, Synthetic Wax, Peg-10 Dimethicone, Hydroxyethylpiperazine Ethane Sulfonic Acid, Ci 14700 / Red 4, Ci 19140 / Yellow 5, Guanosine, Cyathea Medullaris Leaf Extract, Ascorbyl Glucoside, Secale Cereale Extract / Rye Seed Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate, Sodium Acrylates Copolymer, Sodium Polyacrylate, Phenoxyethanol, Faex Extract / Yeast Extract / Extrait De Levure, Adenosine, Magnesium Sulfate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Nylon-12, Dimethicone/Peg-10/15 Crosspolymer, Dimethicone/Polyglycerin-3 Crosspolymer, Limonene, Pentylene Glycol, Benzyl Alcohol, Linalool, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Parfum / Fragrance, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Disodium Edta, Citronellol, Coumarin, Glycine Soja Protein / Soybean Protein.
Lancôme Définicils Natural Yet Noticeable Lashes Mascara in Deep Black ($27.50 for 0.20 oz. from Lancôme): I think that it is safe to say that this mascara has been the number 1 mascara for over 16 years for good reason! Not only does it exquisitely define lashes, but it separates them without clumping, and it lengthens them beautifully– while remaining natural-looking. There is no flaking, no smudging and it lasts on my lashes all day long. It is available in three colors: Black, Deep Black and Deep Brown. I have Deep Black, which is a rich opaque black, that adds depth to my dark brown lashes without looking artificial. This mascara is fragrance-free, suitable for people who wear contact lenses, and it does not irritate my sensitive eyes.

According to Lancôme,

The number 1 mascara for over 16 years! For lavishly long, perfectly defined lashes, this iconic award-winning mascara provides the ultimate in separation and has been the number 1 mascara for 16+ years! Carefully selected polymers coat each lash from root to tip, to help lengthen and outline each lash for unmatched definition. This best-selling mascara's unique brush applicator has specially grooved bristles that hold the perfect amount of product for gradual, even application every time.
Claims:
  • Delivers longer, high-definition lashes instantly
  • Perfectly lengthens and separates lashes for natural look
  • Ophthalmologist-tested. Fragrance-Free. Suitable for contact lens wearers
Technology:
  • Bio-selective polymers cling to the lashes through electrical attraction
  • Bristles are placed in “hedgehog” pattern
  • Each bristle is grooved to hold the product, allowing gradual application and even spread of the formula
Ingredients: Aqua / Water / Eau, Paraffin, Stearic Acid, Triethanolamine, Cera Alba / Beeswax / Cire Dabeille, Acacia Senegal / Acacia Senegal Gum, Palmitic Acid, Cera, Carnauba / Carnauba Wax / Cire De Carnauba, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Panthenol, Imidazolidinyl Urea, Sodium Polymethacrylate, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Simethicone, Bht, Silica, Polyquaternium-10, [+/- May Contain / Peut Contenir, Ci 77499, Ci 77492, Ci 77491 / Iron Oxides, Ci 77007 /Ultramarines, Mica, Ci 77891 / Titanium Dioxide, Ci 75470 / Carmine, Ci 77510 / Ferric Ferrocyanide].
Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Eau De Parfum Spray ($72.00 for 1 oz. from Lancôme): This lovely Eau de Parfum boasts a very feminine aroma that is comprised of floral top notes, informed by Iris, middle notes of a warm and creamy Patchouli (that isn't in the least bit pungent) and sweet base notes that Lancôme describes as, "a sweet gourmand adds a burst of unexpected radiance." The combination of this amalgam of seemingly disparate notes is a creamy, warm floral that is neither too sweet, nor in the least bit pungent. Of course fragrances wear differently on each person because of the way in which individual body chemistry transforms fragrances, but this lovely fragrance is definitely worth trying.

According to Lancôme,

'La vie est belle', a French expression meaning 'Life is beautiful'; the manifesto of a new era. Universal yet personal, Lancôme’s femininity is a choice embraced by women, not an imposed standard. The choice to live one’s life and fill it with beauty. Your own way.

Lancôme has long fostered this conviction, and shares it today with all women in the form of an exceptional creation. The fragrance of joyful femininity and happiness. The fragrance that makes life more beautiful.

La vie est belle introduces a new olfactive story, the first ever iris gourmand. The juice is made with the most precious natural ingredients, a modern interpretation of an oriental fragrance with a twist of gourmand. It entwines the elegance of iris with the strength of Patchouli and the sweetness of a gourmand blend; for an incredible scent with depth and complexity.

Notes:
Top Note: The elegance of Iris becomes the backbone of the fragrance. It blossoms from the first to the last note like never before.
Middle Note: The strength of Patchouli gives strength and depth.
Base Note: A sweet gourmand adds a burst of unexpected radiance.

About the Bottle,

A true testament to Lancôme’s heritage, the bottle is inspired by a masterpiece from the Lancôme archives. A modern take on “The Crystal Smile” created in 1949 by artistic director George Delhomme. This bottle captures Lancôme founder Armand Petitjean’s vision of femininity, represented here in the shape of a smile.

The potent, antioxidant-rich blend of high quality ingredients helps to protect the skin against environmental assaults, and it also helps to soften the appearance of fine lines. 

If you have sensitive skin, it is best to only leave it on for a few minutes and then remove it. I would recommend this to everyone until you determine your tolerance (see suggested directions below).

According to June Jacobs,

Paraben and preservative free, this clarifying enzyme masque contains a highly effective combination of papaya’s natural fruit enzyme, papain with extracts of mango and pineapple, to gently dissolve dead surface impurities allowing nourishing oils of sweet almond and borage seed to penetrate, improving tone and elasticity of the skin.

Follow with June Jacobs toner, serum, eye treatment, moisturizer and sun protection. You may apply a thin layer to cleansed skin (or over serum and moisturizer) on the face, neck and décolleté, leave on overnight and in the morning, remove fully with tepid water and pat dry. Or, apply a generous amount to clean skin and allow it to remain for 3 to 10 minutes, depending on skin sensitivity. Rinse with water and pat dry.

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Propylene Glycol, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, Ceteareth-20, Glycerin, Camellia Sinensis (Green And White Tea) Leaf Extract, Lycium Barbarum (Goji Berry) Fruit Extract, Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grapeseed) Extract, Aspalathus Linearis (Red Tea) Leaf Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Fragrance (Parfum), Carica Papaya (Papaya) Extract, Ananas Sativus (Pineapple) Extract, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Extract, Borago Officinalis Seed Oil, Carbomer, Sodium Phytate, Triethanolamine, Papain, Amyl Cinnamal, Benzyl Alcohol, Benzyl Benzoate, Benzyl Salicylate, D-Limonene, Geraniol, Hydroxy Citronellal, 2-(4-Tert-Butylbenzyl) Priopionaldehyde (Lilial), Linalool, Hydroxy Methylpentyl Cyclohexencarboxaldehyder (Lyral).

June Jacobs Lip Renewal Broad Spectrum SPF 50 ($24.00 for 0.5 oz. from June Jacobs): First, I have to state that I love that this nourishing lip balm contains an SPF 50. Our lips often go unprotected from the sun, and wearing lip glosses and lipsticks with shine can make them even more vulnerable to excessive sun exposure. I, therefore, use this as a base for my lip glosses and lipsticks for added protection. This is an antioxidant-rich and emollient formula that is lightweight and very comfortable on the lips. It is very hydrating, boasts a low to mid sheen that won't interfere with the texture of lipsticks and glosses, and serves as a perfect primer for matte lipsticks. Alone, it is a wonderful lip balm that prevents chapping, and heals dry chapped lips. It has a very light aroma that is best described as a slight fruity floral. It is pleasant, but barely there, and it fades very quickly.

According to June Jacobs,

This nourishing, paraben and preservative free formula helps provide superb, comprehensive broad spectrum protection and maximum hydration. Powerful patented anti-oxidant blend of white, red and green tea extracts combined with goji berry, pomegranate and grape seed extracts help neutralize free radicals and protect from environmental toxins to help prevent dryness and moisture loss.

Hyaluronic Acid: Naturally occurring in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the skin, it helps regulate cell behavior during the healing process and reduces inflammation. Hyaluronic acid acts as a humectant to maintain and attract water, minimizing trans-epidermal water loss.


Jojoba Seed Oil: Derived from the bean-like seeds of the desert shrub, it contains vitamin E, fatty acids and phospholipids which help to reduce transepidermal water loss, aiding in the restoration of the skin's natural lipid barrier.

June Jacobs Rapid Repair Healing Cream ($30.00 for 1.6 oz. from June Jacobs): This multipurpose healing cream, with the consistency of an ultra-nourishing balm, is a potent antioxidant-rich treatment that effectively soothes and heals irritated skin and provides it with sustained moisture. It created a non-greasy barrier that protects vulnerable skin, and promotes healing. It is mid-weight, and yet fast absorbing, and it leaves behind no greasy residue. It has a very light fruity-floral aroma that is neither cloying, nor long-lasting.

Key Ingredients and Their Attributes

White, red and green tea extracts combined with goji berry, pomegranate and grapeseed extracts help to neutralize free radicals, protect skin from environmental toxins and combat the visible signs of premature aging. 


Citrus Extract: Derived from the seed, pulp and white membranes of grapefruit, it acts as an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-oxidant. Grapefruit oil contains citrus bioflavonoids (hesperidin, rutin, and naringin) which reduce the skin's inflammatory response by strengthening the walls of blood vessels and aid vitamin C to rebuild collagen, increasing the skin's overall natural healing abilities. 


Lemon Peel Extract: Derived from the peel of the lemon, it contains ascorbic acid, vitamin A and phytochemicals called limonoids. It has antiseptic and astringent properties which counteract acidity on the surface to brighten dull skin. 


Jojoba Seed Oil: Derived from the beanlike seeds of the desert shrub, it contains vitamin E, fatty acids and phospholipids which help to reduce transepidermal water loss, aiding in the restoration of the skin's natural lipid barrier. 


Avocado Oil: Derived from the pulp of the avocado, this nourishing fruit originated in Central America. Readily absorbed by the skin and rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins A, D, E, and amino acids to hydrate and nourish the skin.


Carrageenan and Algae Extract: Consist of many polysaccharide sugars such as alginates, which are responsible for moisture retention and fucoidanes, which encourage circulation, playing a key role in the elasticity of the skin. 

Ginseng Root Extract: Derived from the rhizome of the North American plant, it is effective in balancing the skin due to two active components- ginsenosides, which stimulate the revitalization of epidermal cells, and polysaccharides, which provide essential nutrients to cells. 


Ginger Root Extract:  Derived from the underground stem (rhizome) of the plant found in Asia and India, its main active compound, gingerol, gives the plant its flavor and its anti-inflammatory properties.

Lancôme has partnered with Rakuten Affiliate Network to create their first-ever exclusive Bonus Box, and I am truly grateful to have been hand-selected among the 30 beauty bloggers to receive it! This box is filled with an amazing array of beautiful Lancôme products, and I am utterly thrilled to share them with you!
 A sneak peek inside of the Lancôme Rakuten Bonus Box!
Lancôme Énergie De Vie Liquid Care Moisturizer ($55.00 for 1.7 oz. from Lancôme): This is one of my favorite recent skincare discoveries that I didn't know that I needed! This lightweight antioxidant-rich moisturizer has the consistency of a serum, and all of the hydration of a cream. It immediately sinks into the skin, leaves behind no greasy residue, and it imparts a gorgeous dewy luminosity. It has a very light herbal aroma that is at once uplifting and pleasant. During the warm months, this is the only moisturizer that my normal/combination skin requires. I am absolutely obsessed with Lancôme Énergie De Vie Liquid Care Moisturizer.

According to Lancôme,

Wake up your skin with a burst of anti-fatigue hydration. Loaded with antioxidant goodness for an instant glow, this liquid moisturizer fuels your skin for a refined texture and renewed bounce. Its unique formula is as hydrating as a cream, as concentrated as a serum, and as light as a cosmetic water. 

Formulated with cranberry, lemon balm, and ginseng to provide antioxidant protection against free radicals. Inspired by Korean skin care routines, this water-infused fresh moisturizer works to address the 1st signs of aging, for glowing, refreshed, and healthy-looking skin. 

Tired of looking tired? Lancôme’s Énergie de Vie is a simple, efficacious routine that works to reawaken tired, dull skin, giving you an instant glow. Today's signs of fatigue could turn into tomorrow's visible signs of aging. Lack of sleep, high stress, pollution, daily life excesses—all these environmental factors alter the appearance of the skin.

Lancôme Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover ($15.00-$62.00 for 1.7 oz.-13.5 oz. from Lancôme): If you have sensitive eyes, as I do, or if you wear contact lenses, then you know the importance of an ultra-gentle eye makeup remover. I have tried so many eye makeup removers that purported to be gentle only to be dismayed when they made my eyes burn, sting and water– all of which often resulted in irritated, red eyes. This is an ultra-gentle dual-phase eye makeup remover that removes every trace of makeup– including the most resilient waterproof formulas– and it does so without the need to tug or pull the delicate eye area. Furthermore,  it never stings or irritates my sensitive eyes, and boasts the added benefit of leaving my skin conditioned. I must also add that I am glad that this formula does not contain artificial coloring– there is no need for it, and frankly I prefer not to have it in a product that is supposed to remove makeup! There is a reason that Lancôme Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover has a cult following, and that it was the winner of Allure magazine's 'Best of Beauty' Award.

According to Lancôme,

This award-winning bi-phase makeup remover gently whisks away all types of eye makeup, even waterproof. Simply shake to activate the bi-phase formula that leaves the eye area perfectly clean. The lipid phase lifts off eye makeup, while the water phase contains special emollients to refresh and condition skin without a greasy residue.

Lifts off all types of eye makeup, even waterproof mascara, while conditioning the skin. Leaves eyes feeling cool and refreshed, with no oily residue. No wonder there’s a cult following.

Ophthalmologist Tested for Safety. Ideal for sensitive skin and contact lens wearers.

Ingredients: Aqua / Water / Eau, Cyclopentasiloxane, Isohexadecane, Sodium Chloride, Poloxamer 184, Hexylene Glycol, Dipotassium Phosphate, Benzyl Alcohol, Potassium Phosphate, Quaternium-15, Benzalkonium Chloride, Parfum / Fragrance, Citronellol, Geraniol.
Lancôme Monsieur Big Mascara ($25.00 from Lancôme): I don't often gush over mascara, but Monsieur Big Mascara is amazing! The brush effortlessly glides across lashes, picks up excess mascara to avoid clumping, and the formula is comfortable and long-wearing. The deep black pigmentation intensifies the appearance of lashes while the formula simultaneously lengthens and adds volume. This mascara doesn't smudge, transfer, flake or bleed, and it is gentle on my sensitive eyes.

According to Lancôme,

A BIG volume mascara that delivers instant heart-stopping volume with up to 24 hour wear that lasts all night, and even the morning after, for your biggest, blackest, boldest lashes yet.

You’ll know Monsieur Big Mascara is the one at first stroke. The BIG brush and ultra-creamy formula glides like silk onto lashes to deliver up to 12x more volume* with up to 24 hour wear. No touch-ups, flaking and smudging. Perfect for your BIG evening out AND even the morning after.
*than bare lashes alone

Monsieur Big’s brush has a unique shape with soft, wavy fibers to deliver the perfect amount of formula with the very first stroke. His ultra-creamy formula has supple waxes and polymers to adhere immediately to lashes for BIG, buildable volume and length. Apply one coat and you will see why Monsieur Big is the one. Keep applying and you’ll forget all the others.

Ingredients: Aqua / Water Paraffin Potassium Cetyl Phosphate Copernicia Cerifera Cera / Carnauba Wax Ethylene/Acrylic Acid Copolymer Styrene/Acrylates/Ammonium Methacrylate Copolymer Cera Alba / Beeswax Synthetic Beeswax Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2 Polybutene Cetyl Alcohol Steareth-20 Glyceryl Dibehenate Steareth-2 C12-13 Pareth-23 C12-13 Pareth-3 Tribehenin Acacia Senegal Gum Glyceryl Behenate Sodium Laureth Sulfate Silica Divinyldimethicone/Dimethicone Copolymer Disodium Edta Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil Hydrogenated Palm Oil Hydroxyethylcellulose Caprylyl Glycol Tetrasodium Edta Ethylenediamine/Stearyl Dimer Dilinoleate Copolymer Butylene Glycol Bht Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate Potassium Sorbate Sodium Dehydroacetate Phenoxyethanol [+/- May Contain Ci 75470 / Carmine Ci 77007 / Ultramarines Ci 77491, Ci 77492, Ci 77499 / Iron Oxides].
Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Wear Camouflage Corrector in Peach ($31.00 from Lancôme): If you require color correctors to address a variety of skin imperfections, then Lancôme has five shades from which to choose. I received Peach, which is specifically made as a corrective to dark circles, dark spots and acne scars, and while I neither have acne scars, nor dark spots, I do periodically get dark circles. I began testing it when I was getting very little sleep, because of long hours at work, and I definitely had favorable results. I simply warm up the tiniest amount between my fingers and gently pat it into my dark circles, and it neutralizes the discoloration without looking artificial or overdone. The formula boasts enough emollience to spread without tugging, and it doesn't dry out the skin, settle into fine lines, flake or pill.

According to Lancôme,

An ultra-pigmented, full-coverage color corrector that camouflages imperfections (discoloration, redness, sallowness, plus more) based on your skin concern and skin tone. Won’t cake or crease.

Available Shades:
  • Green: Neutralizes redness for light to medium skin tones
  • Yellow: Brightens dullness for light to medium skin tones, minimizes dark spots and circles for fair complexions 
  • Lavender: Brightens sallowness for light to medium skin tones 
  • Peach: Minimizes dark spots, dark circles, and acne scars for medium skin tones 
  • Orange/Red: Minimizes dark spots, dark circles, and acne scars for deeper skin tones 
Good for the following types of skin: Normal, Combination, Oily and Dry.

Directions: Squeeze a pea-sized amount of corrector on the back of your hand, use your fingers to warm up the product before application. Careful, a little goes a long way!

Lancôme's Tip: Use your favorite applicator- a concealer brush, beauty blender, or your fingers- to dab the color corrector onto your concerned area until covered. Wait a few seconds, then on top of the color corrector, dab your shade of Teint Idole Camouflage Concealer. Blend the edges into your skin. This combination is perfect to seamlessly cover blemishes, imperfections, dark spots, dark circles, or any other areas of uneven skin tone.

Ingredients: Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2 Hydrogenated Polyisobutene Isotridecyl Isononanoate Cera Microcristallina / Microcrystalline Wax / Cire Microcristalline Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride Silica Silylate Boron Nitride Sorbitan Sesquiisostearate Lauroyl Lysine Triethylhexanoin Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract / Matricaria Flower Extract Cucumis Sativus Fruit Extract / Cucumber Fruit Extract Salvia Officinalis Leaf / Sage Leaf Extract Stearalkonium Hectorite Aqua / Water / Eau Sorbitan Sesquioleate Glyceryl Behenate Alumina Aluminum Hydroxide Propylene Carbonate Propylene Glycol Caprylyl Glycol Polyglyceryl-6 Octastearate Bht Tocopheryl Acetate [+/- May Contain / Peut Contenir Ci 15850 / Red 7 Ci 42090 / Blue 1 Lake Ci 77491, Ci 77492, Ci 77499 / Iron Oxides Ci 77891 / Titanium Dioxide].
Lancôme Comfort Matte High Pigment Liquid Lipstick in 270 Beige Vintage ($22.00 from Lancôme): This is such a novel approach to matte liquid lipsticks– from the shake-before-use method to soak the applicator tip to the wide applicator. The formula is ultra-lightweight, velvety smooth, it glides across the lips effortlessly, deposits color evenly, and it neither feathers, nor does it dry out the lips. Furthermore, the formula is non-sticky, comfortable on the lips, and long-wearing. 270 Beige Vintage is an infinitely wearable nude mid-tone pink beige shade that is very flattering and natural looking on the lips.

According to Lancôme,

Finally, a matte liquid lipstick that wears comfortably without drying out your lips! A water-in-oil emulsion that's formulated with a patented Ultra Thin Film technology to deliver weightless texture and a second-skin feel without sacrificing intense color payoff. And it has Vitamin E for comfortable, non-drying wear.

Its unique cushion sponge allows for maximum absorption of the formula to deliver a precise, soft application onto the lips, and buildable color that dries without smudging or transfer.

Just shake to soak the applicator with formula, apply the cushion directly onto lips to build the saturated color... then wait for it to dry down to a lightweight, comfort matte finish.

Available Shades:
  • Magic Orange - vibrant orange
  • Beige Vintage - nude beige
  • Energy Peach - nude peach
  • Red'y in 5 - warm red
  • Kiss Me Cherie - brick red
  • Pink Power - magenta
  • Yummy Pink - bright pink
