Hello everyone and welcome to the start of another week!
First off I have to say I am loving watching all that is going down as part of New York Fashion Week! Yesterday’s Victoria Beckham show blew my mind once again – her transition is so fascinating to me and she seems so able to have hit a niche and a ‘look’ that remains fresh season after season. Whether it’s her really designing the collection or not, the label is so good.
Back to what this blog is REALLY meant to be about! Following the release of Charlotte Tilbury’s make up range this time last week, I’ve really fallen in love with the ‘Ingénue’ look that she champions which is also a wide industry favourite. Having played around with heavy eyeliner and feline flicks of late, I decided to pare it down today – very little eye make up, no eyeliner and just a sweet pinky pout. To help me create this look I needed a gloss which I consider one of the fallen stars of the industry.
Many people have criticised these products and since their launch was now many many years ago, they are a forgotten gem. In my mind no gloss has quite the staying power as these. They are also more pigmented than most glosses and start to infringe on the lip lacquer territory.
I do admit that Lancôme perhaps had a marketing crisis on their hands. The packaging and product ethos was generally aimed at a young audience but obviously the price point for a gloss is quite high. That said, it’s far cheaper than many other high end make up glosses and I never baulk at the price.
