What is it about "Sex and the City" and it's hold on me? Are all of you similarly obsessed? Thank you to Abby and the team at Fashionista for posting the trailer. I didn't even know it was out!
We haven't done a giveaway in a while, so let's do a very "Sex and the City" giveaway. How about an Oscillation vibrating mascara in Black and a Color Fever Gloss in Hotness? Let us know if you love "Sex and the City" and why (or why not!) and if you plan to see the new movie in 2010. Please post by Sunday night and we'll pick one post at random.
Have you checked out any YouTube makeup videos lately? It turns out that Lancome Canada is sponsoring a vlogger contest. I noticed one of the contest videos while browsing around and thought you'd like to see it. Siderasuperstar's, featuring products like Oscillation mascara and powerfoundation, is above. She has amazing eyes, doesn't she?
I was always jealous of people who have eyelids like Madonna's (and Siderasuperstar's), who could do a crease color and have fun with their eye makeup. I have those eyelids that disappear. (I know no one feels sorry for me, but if you share my non-existant eyelids, you know what I mean.)
If you're one of the vloggers in the contest, post a link to your video in the comments below so we can watch yours too!
Everyone's a winner today because it's friends and family time! If you're reading the blog, we certainly consider you a friend, so please enjoy. If you've been dying to try a little Lancome something, maybe Oscillation Mascara, the Sparkling Cherub powder or a new Juicy Tube, now's the time! (We also have free shipping through Nov. 30th!)
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the United States. If you're not familiar with the holiday, it's a time to give thanks for what you have. If you are celebrating, have a happy holiday. If you're not, you can still take a moment during the day and reflect on what you're thankful for. Feel free to share below! I'm thankful for many things--my health, my family, my friends, my job and for all of you. It's nice to know that many of you check in from time to time and read what we have to say and share your thoughts. I appreciate that more than you know!
We'll be back on Monday with more giveaway winners and lots of exciting Lancome news.
Let's start with a disclaimer for our friends at the FTC. Aleksis is not on the payroll! But what a terrific, thorough video. Thank you, Aleksis. Glad you like the product. People like you make my job easier!
Aleksis, as you can see above, reviewed our cool new product, Oscillation Powerfoundation. This is a mineral foundation that comes in a neat, easy-to-use package with a vibrating applicator. Just for the record, it comes in 12 shades and four intensities, from Ivory 10 to Sable 20. Check out lancome-usa.com for the shade chart to see photos of the actual loose powder, not just a shade chip. You'll get a good sense of the colors available. And the shades do work on a wide range of skin tones. We learned this at the editor event we did a few months back.
If you'd like to try Oscillation Powerfoundation, our friends over at My Beautyberry are giving some away. So scoot your cute selves over there and become a member so you can qualify for their giveaways.
P.S. Aleksis, you're not a fan of Oscillation Mascara?? How can that be? Maybe we need to arrange an iChat session so we can walk you through it and demo. We will convert you!
Are you a Lancôme fan on Facebook? Of course you are. It's the best way to communicate to former classmates, strangers and old boyfriends trying to track you down that you are a refined beauty addict with impeccable taste. And for all they know, you could very well spend half your time in Paris, shopping, powdering your nose with Dual Finish and eating macaroons.
But maybe you're not a fan and maybe you don't even know Lancôme Paris is on Facebook. Well, we are. We post product and spokesmodel news, links, giveaway info and more Monday through Friday on our Lancôme Paris page.
If you're not a fan, we'd love for you to become one. We'll be picking one person from among the new and existing Facebook fans to win a V.I.P. beauty box worth $250. (Just become a fan by Oct. 12th.) We send these boxes to celebs, models, designers and other V.I.P.s, and trust me, they are lust-worthy. It will be packed with some of our best new products, including Ôscillation mascara, Ôscillation Powerbooster lash booster and the amazing Genifique eye cream.
Have a great weekend and hope to see you on Facebook!
Hi there. I'm the v.p. for public relations at Lancôme, a former beauty editor and the author of "Kevyn Aucoin: A Beautiful Life." Thanks for checking out our blog! I look forward to hearing from all the beauty junkies out there.
