I can’t believe it’s been almost a month since my last post. I’m hoping to get back to my regular blogging routine next year – three months no internet really throws you out of whack. Anyway a few months ago, I was invited to the launch of the Lancôme newly improved Visionnaire and Grandiôse mascara at Myer Melbourne. As you know, I have been using Lancome serums for a while now and can honestly say they are the best things ever!
Lancôme Grandiôse
Check out this sexy mascara! The Lancome’s Grandiose mascara packaging is quite the classy one. The lid is semi transparent and has a black rose embedded inside, kind of reminds me of a rose inside a vase. The ‘swan neck’ wand is designed for easy application so that the brush can reach and coat every lash evenly. When I first used the mascara, I found it a little difficult (..I’m unco) but after about 2 or 3 times, it got a lot easier. The mascara looks very natural on me and you can apply many layers without clumping. When it came to removing, I used my Bioderma Crealine H2O Cleanser and it came off relatively easy. Although I don’t use much mascara, I am very impressed with this one.
Lancôme Visionnaire LR 2412 4% – Cx
When I heard that Lancome improved the formula of the Visionnaire, I knew I had to try it. I’ve been using the previous Visionnaire for the past one year. I mentioned in my previous post that I didn’t really notice any difference in my skin texture. But when I stopped using it for a couple of weeks, I felt there was something different about my skin and realised that the Visionnaire was doing wonders without me even realising. The Visionnaire – Cx is a light texture serum, very similar texture to the previous version. The scent on the original Visionnaire is a lot stronger than this one. I actually prefer weaker scented products and sometimes found the original Visionnaire too over powering. This serum helps keep my skin hydrated and prevent wrinkles so if you’re looking for a new serum in your skincare routine, remember to check this one out.
