I was so excited to test these products and give you my honest opinion on them. What is your opinion on Lancôme? What are your favorite Lancôme products? Let me know in the comments below! Let’s get to the reviews!
Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate:
Quick Bit About The Product:

Drop by drop, this potent serum boosts youthful radiance, restoring smoother, more radiant skin you can see and feel in just 7 days. This innovative formula featuring Génifique’s patented complex with added biotechnology-derived ingredient acts on 10 key signs of youth including skin texture, resiliency, elasticity, firmness, sagginess, fine lines, wrinkles, radiance, clarity, and skin tone. It’s fresh oil-free and lightweight texture quickly absorbs into skin without leaving residue. Skin will feel refreshed, revitalized, and look visibly healthier. Advanced Génifique is the first step to any beauty routine, for every age, every skin type, multiple ethnicities. With an exclusive self-loading dropper, Génifique delivers the ideal dosage to bring back the light into your skin.
My Thoughts:
I really love how this serum feels and that it can be used both day and night. The dropper is made so the exact amount you need comes out with each pump. You don’t need a lot of this product at all. This travel size will last me for a very long time. It didn’t break me out at all. It sinks into the skin very quickly and gave my skin an instant radiance. I can’t wait to see what my skin will look like after 7 days. I will definitely update in a future favorites post. This serum is pricey, but I don’t think it is overpriced. I would definitely say it is WORTH THE MONEY!

Lancôme Absolute Premium BX Day Cream:
Quick Bit About The Product:
Pamper your skin with the luxurious Absolue Premium Bx Day Cream with SPF. Intensively nourishing, Absolue Bx quenches even the driest of skin without being greasy. The velvety texture is light, smooth, and fast-absorbing so it is ideal to wear under makeup. Absolue Premium Bx is infused with Pro-Xylane and the replenishing Bio-Network™ to replenish and rejuvenate skin’s appearance while recapturing the qualities of younger-looking skin: firmness, elasticity, and clarity. Recover your skin’s “golden glow” with Absolue Premium Bx.
My Thoughts:
I am a huge fan of day creams with SPF! It is so important to product your skin from the sun’s harmful rays. I love that this day cream really gave my skin some much-needed moisture without causing my skin to look greasy. It really is light, smooth, and fast-absorbing. My makeup applied very easily on top and it didn’t cause my makeup to break down. I was actually very impressed. However, this cream is very pricey. You don’t need much at all and it is better than most day creams with SPF that I have tried. I am on the fence with this one. I love it but there are more affordable options. If you can find this day cream on sale, then it would be worth the money.

Lancôme Définicils Mascara:
Quick Bit About The Product:
The number 1 mascara for over 16 years!
For lavishly long, perfectly defined lashes, this iconic award-winning mascara provides the ultimate in separation. 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.
My Thoughts:
I was so excited to try this mascara because it is supposed to be number 1 for over 16 years. However, I was disappointed. It gave my lashes some length but it wasn’t anything to write home about. It didn’t give my lashes any volume. I did like that my lashes didn’t clump and it dried fast. It wasn’t messy to apply and it didn’t smudge at all. It would make an okay base mascara. However, on its own it left much to be desired. If you love very natural lashes, than you would love this mascara. However, I love BIG lashes so this mascara is not for me. It did come off very easily with makeup remover which I liked. However, I would say it is definitely NOT WORTH YOUR MONEY

Lancôme Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover:
Quick Bit About The Product:
This award-winning phenomenon 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.
My Thoughts:
I love eye makeup removers because eye makeup is so hard to get off. I wear heavy eye makeup many days of the week and am always looking for a great remover. I really love the packaging on this product because it prevents spills. It is so easy to apply a cotton pad on top and get just the right amount of product. It removed my eye makeup very easily. I didn’t have to tug at my eyes at all. Although it is great, the Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover is almost identical. I did a test to see if the Lancôme would perform better. I used just one cotton pad for each eye and saturated the pad one time. They both removed all my eye makeup with the same amount of effort. Therefore, I would save your money and purchase the Neutrogena makeup remover. The Lancôme eye makeup remover was less greasy than the Neutrogena one so that might be a selling point for you. I would say this is a great product but due to cheaper alternatives, it is NOT WORTH YOUR MONEY.

Lancôme Flash Bronzer Tinted Self-Tanning Body Gel With Pure Vitamin E:
Quick Bit About The Product:
If you’ve been craving that come-hither Cote d’Azure tan, this “auto bronzante” is the immediate answer without ever reaching for your passport. A formula featuring DHA and Natural Caramel Extract guarantees a gorgeous golden color in just 30 minutes, while antioxidant-rich pure Vitamin E helps keep free radicals from doing future damage, And moisturizing ingredients leave skin feeling satiny-soft and altogether irresistible.
My Thoughts:
I love self-tanning products! I want to prevent skin cancer and self-tanning is a much better option than tanning from the sun. This product claims to give you color in just 30 minutes. It is a tinted gel that does give your skin instant color. I like that it has color so you know where you are applying. However, it took a long time to blend in. I was so afraid I was going to be a streaky mess. I was pleasantly surprised when I wasn’t. I love that it isn’t overly dark. It really did give my legs a nice bronze color that wasn’t orange. It does have a bit of a self-tanner smell, but I don’t mind that. Overall, I am pretty impressed with this product. I would definitely use it again. I just wish it didn’t take so long to blend. It is WORTH YOUR MONEY if you want a beautiful color and don’t mind putting in some work.

Overall Thoughts:
I really loved trying all these Lancôme products. Some products were hits and some were misses. Overall, I would say Lancôme is an awesome brand, especially for skincare. The youth activating concentrate is definitely my favorite of all the products! It is completely worth your money. I love how easy it is to use and how it made my skin feel. I also liked the day cream and self-tanner. The eye makeup remover was great but there are definitely more affordable options. I would very much pass on the mascara. I wasn’t a fan of it at all! Let me know your thoughts on Lancôme and if you would try any of these products!
