L’ABSOLUE ROUGE CREAM LIPSTICK 06

lanc%C3%B4me-labsolu-rouge-cream-lipstick

This is the only one in stock?

It seems to suit the same woman that all makeup suits at the moment?

These aren’t shades I would choose.

Didn’t used to buy Lancome lipstick so maybe it never suited me.

lancome-la-vie-est-belle-eau-de-parfum

Really like this fragrance, wasn’t sure if it would be too sweet for me as I usually choose quite strong heady fragrances or rose for daytime.

It is a bit like COCO MADEMOISELLE.

I’d purchase the full bottle.

Not sure where I would wear it

This makes sense as it is rose coloured but not what I was expecting.

Somewhere elegant in winter.

Just need to go somewhere elegant in winter and get some fashion to match.

lancome-tonique-confort-toner

Used to use the loreal one that looked like this.

Just noticed Loreal and lancome are part of the same company.

I knew that already from somewhere.

I used to love the loreal toner, you used it with those soft fluffy cotton wool balls in pastel colours lol!!

I’ll use this with my boots organic cotton pads.

Really got back into using toner all over my face again instead of just problem areas.

Might purchase this product ~ loved the Loreal toner.

EYE AND FACE PALETTE HOLIDAY LIMITED EDITION 20G

The packaging of the palette is gorgeous but not sure if I suit the colours.

Have to say they are similar to the no7 colours but they are more pigmented so wonder if these would show up on me.

Kept this one to try.

Review

Really pleased with this gift set.

Really like the Lancome primer.

Like the foundation ~ not sure if they do my shade though.

I didn’t buy Lancome before covid, so not sure if it was ever my colourings.

I never have suited lipsticks in free gifts, so bought this knowing I probably wouldn’t like the lipsticks.

The brown one might be allright yet ~ sort of a bit hopefull.

I will definately repurchase some of these items.

If the new stock has lipstick colours I like will buy them.

Already noticed some eyeshadow colours I like so will purchase them.

You would have to give this 10 out of 10 really.

Thankyou Lancome and Boots

Well thought through ~ if you don’t like the lipstick or eyeshadow they were sort of free anyway.

Definately ten out of ten.

Loved the outer packaging as well ~ like girls world for grown up girls

Really happy!!!!
