Gloss in Love



Lancome has relatively new lipgloss range out at the moment called "Gloss in Love" and I'm lucky enough to have a box set of four different colours out of the range. This box includes "Violette Paillette", "Pink Carat", "Glitter Mania" and "Under the Spotlight" which are honestly all delicious colours. Normally I would say that anything coral toned is my favourite, but surprisingly out of these four my favourite is Violette Paillette. It is such a gorgeous colour when put on the lips, not too red or pink - it's just right. The formula for these lipglosses is just right too, not sticky, it glides on the lips easily and stays put for around three-four hours. If you aren't too fussed with putting on lipstick, then these are a good substitution as they give the right amount of colour to the lips without being too drying. They would also work well over a lipstick to give it some sparkle, especially Glitter Mania which has less colour payoff than the rest but glitters the most just like the title promises. The dufour applicator of these is unique as it is moulded to shape around your lip, therefore making application easier - especially in the car. The other great thing about this particular box set, not just the lipglosses themselves, is that you get to try out several at once which I love. Also, Emma Watson was the face of this campaign so... why not try it out right? You can't go wrong.

My Lancome Perfume

I've had a couple of Lancome Perfumes for a while now and I thought it was about time to share my thoughts on them. 




Magnifique by Lancome: I feel like if a ruby could smell, it would smell like Magnifique. It is a rather grown-up smell, if that makes any sense, it is very definite and knows what it is - no fruity, musky, sweet tones in this one. The bottles lasts for a very long time - it lasted me at least two years wearing it almost every day. It stays on for at least 9 hours and you can still smell it on your clothing after a day at work/school. Worth a try, and it will always have a special place in my heart as my first proper perfume. Oh and Anne Hathaway is the face of it so come on, you have to try it.




Tresor Midnight Rose by Lancome: This perfume smells musky, with a rather sweet tone to it. The packaging is wonderful (I love the rose that is on the top). It'll last you forever - seriously, at least two years. Midnight Rose also lasts on you for at least 9 hours and if you smell your clothing the day after, hints of the smell will still be there. As a side note, i've dropped this a couple of times and it's never broken so that's always a plus!!! Hardy bottles FTW.
