I don't use many Lancome products at all, but I was excited to pick up a mascara. I am on their mailing list and did not receive any of these mailings, which is just as well as the whole scarcity would have probably turned me off completely. Sounds like Lancome needs to revamp itself they way Estee Lauder is doing.ahhhsoNeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11308961353635087232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-32241918309414189442013-06-13T19:10:32.180-04:002013-06-13T19:10:32.180-04:00TackyTackyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-20064000751228412452013-06-12T17:47:37.136-04:002013-06-12T17:47:37.136-04:00Those insipid drawings are not exactly charming- t...Those insipid drawings are not exactly charming- they're even kind of...vulgar. What happened to fashion illustration that glorified adult women (Rene Gruau, etc.) instead of reducing them to childish scribbles of T and A? And...it's Lancome. I find it difficult to get excited about them these days.<br /><br />Unrelated: I've been enjoying this blog for two years- who knows why this article prompted me to come out of hiding? Anyway, I greatly enjoy your blog.

Childish I know but I kind of like it! As for the palettes, the taupes is very nice but I already have quite a few of these so it won't be a go for me.

It was recommended to me by a friend who had just come back from a year in Europe. I remember seeing all the pretty blue bottles (--this was when Lancome came in pretty blue bottles) lined up in the bathroom cabinet, and I wanted them!<br /><br />I still consider it a good solid brand, but it doesn't "wow" me anymore. As for the Alber Elbaz packaging, it's cute but it's not my taste, so I won't be rushing to buy anything. And I am put off by the false scarcity tactics. In fact, with few exceptions, I pay very little attention to limited edition products anymore. If it's not going to become a favorite that I can repurchase, or something special that I can save up for, why bother?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-8650190943238106932013-06-12T00:32:19.646-04:002013-06-12T00:32:19.646-04:00I used to love and wear Lancome cosmetics (and per...I used to love and wear Lancome cosmetics (and perfumes) frequently but haven't been excited about them in quite a while. I hope this line adds a touch of new vitality to the brand. They've lost their mo-jo I'm afraid.

I do not care...I do not care about this collection. I do not care about Lancome in general. Recycling, boring, over-priced, consumerism, and L'Oreal. These are my associations, and just my opinion. And, I will never understand people who are getting excited about recycled makeup palettes. But, never mind...I like your post!<br /><br />SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-7763941885060024812013-06-11T21:01:30.812-04:002013-06-11T21:01:30.812-04:00I have never been a big fan of Lancome products, n...I have never been a big fan of Lancome products, not that they are worthless or anything; I just don't find much that is attractive to me about them.hopflowernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-10198865148752743952013-06-11T16:12:46.704-04:002013-06-11T16:12:46.704-04:00MAC-ish!
