Your Life is made of memories, like a story book. I found that memories are much more than picture stories in your brain, it consists of all senses. I can have memories of feelings, certain scents, a special atmosphere, places, people, colors, music and noises…. and so much more…..

Lancome products have been in my life since I am a teenager, my first perfume I got as a present, it was “Tresor” – and it immediately makes me travel into my past and brings back memories…

Their new fragrance “La Vie est Belle” is a declaration of Happiness, it implies that a new chapter of Happiness is on it’s way. What an amazing promise and great association with hope and positivity. The new scent is uplifting but warm, it captivates memories of times past and points towards a beautiful new tomorrow. 

It has the elegant Iris as it’s top note, supported by the strong Patchouli and a sweet Gourmand. 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.

Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Serum is a fast-acting anti-aging serum that reveals smoother, more radiant skin in as little as 7 days. This powerful anti-aging serum works to improve skin’s key signs of youth: radiance, elasticity, firmness, skin tone, and smoothness. It helps strengthen and protect skin’s moisture barrier.

No Skincare Routine is complete without a daily Serum. Apply after Cleansing and Toning and apply evenly across the face. As a special tip you can also mix a drop into your foundation to give a great glow to the skin.

Renergie Lift Multi-Action Day Cream is a daily moisturizer and anti-aging cream. It helps to lift and tighten the face but also makes the skin soft and plump. It helps to smooth fine lines and wrinkles and has a sunscreen added to avoid future sun damage.  This silky cream texture features hyaluronic acid to also provide all-day moisture and hydration. This cream is supporting  a flawless complexion – it is the ultimate lifting effect for younger-looking skin.

Definicils is the best Mascara if you would like to achieve a natural look. It delivers longer, high-definition lashes instantly. It also perfectly lengthens and separates  – no clumping or smearing. 

I always loved and still love Lancome products and so I was very excited to receive a collection of their best sellers to review. Thank you so much to Lancome and the Rakuten Network for sending me all these lovely products to try. Opinions in this post are strictly my own.

Oh I am so excited, I got selected by the Rakuten Network to receive the Exclusive Lancome Bonus Box! It feels like Christmas in August and I love all these products they sent me including the brand new Monsieur Big Mascara.

The House of Lancome has an extensive history going back to 1930ies, it was founded by Armand Petitjean. Today, more than 80 years later, Lancôme stands for the highest quality in skincare, with timeless style and scientifically proven results.

I remember getting introduced to Lancome products when I was still a teenager and my first perfume I owned was Tresor by Lancome, I loved their products ever since.

Bi-Facil Eye Make Up Remover: This is in my experience the best eye make up remover I know. It is a double-phase liquid and you have to shake it before you apply it so the two fluids mix. You just need a little bit on a cotton pad – it removes any kind of eye make up – even waterproof ones – and it leaves you with a smooth feeling – no grease – no pulling on your eye lids. And no “raccoon look” the next morning – lol.

Energie de Vie Liquid Care: It feels like drinking water with Lemon every morning – just from the outside… – that was my first thought that came into my mind when I tried Energie de Vie Liquid Care – it feels like it nourishes, hydrates and detoxes the skin at the same time – a real energy boost. It leaves the skin super soft and smooth with a little glow. Fabulous for me – especially for my busy lifestyle! I LOVE!

Teint Idole Ultra Wear Camouflage Corrector: This magical little tube manages to conceal skin irregularities like dark spots, dark circles, redness and other imperfections and comes in different colors for different skin types. For me it is especially important that it is lightweight and does not crease plus stays on for a whole day – and I got exactly that. I can recommend you to try it as well – it’s great!

Monsieur Big Mascara:  I love thick black eyelashes and what I loved about this one is that it is very creamy when you put it on – therefore it builds up Volume – and – it does not come off. It gives you an intense black lash color and I do feel that it emphasizes my eyes and makes them look bigger and more dramatic. I am hooked for sure!

Matte Shaker Liquid Lipstick:  This is a cool product, you shake the little bottle and when you open it you have a sponge with the color on the tip. When you apply it it feels like fluid – you can build up color by layering it – so you can go from natural to intense however you would like. The Best Thing is that it does not dry out your lips – but gives you this beautiful silky matte finish. Definitely a new approach to Lip color. I LOVE!

Thank you so much to the Rakuten Network and Lancome for sending me this amazing Box! I loved it!
