Beauty aligned with pleasure, promoting happiness and wellbeing? Lisa and Lancome simply had to meet. But this meeting had already taken place 20 years earlier, when Lisa worked as a beauty advisor at the Harrods Lancome counter. Back then, who would have thought that Lancome would one day name her Makeup Creative Director? Certainly not her—though perhaps Kate Winslet, the Lancome ambassadress, who has always trusted Lisa with her makeup.

“Lisa and Lancome, immediately appeared evident for us,” explains Francoise Lehmann, General Manager of Lancome International. “We share the same values, the same desire to provide to women the keys to a more intimate and deep sense of beauty, rather than one that is solely on the surface. A style of beauty that removes itself from a purely materialistic vision of femininity to one that is aspirational and influential.”
“It’s an honor to be named Makeup Creative Director at Lancome, a brand with an incredible heritage, impeccable style and genuine integrity. We are designing a brand new Paris Makeup Atelier and I can’t wait to start creating new collections, shades and products, as well as posting the amazing on-line content we have in mind. This truly is an exciting new adventure!” Lisa Eldridge
