Lancome Christmas Holiday collection 2008 – C’est Magnifique!

November 26, 2008 Paris B 6 Comments

I realised that Lancome seems to have been quite quiet about their Christmas or Holiday collection. I’ve read all the various news from abroad but locally, I had not seen any. Well, wait no longer because here are the Holiday releases from the Lancome C’est Magnifique Holiday 2008 collection! Call me crazy but I’m really digging these and I’m not usually a Lancome fan!

lancome holiday 2008 c'est magnifique

The look is old Hollywood glam so red lips and defined eyes are the way to go. I’m particularly liking the deep blue that forms the backdrop the model is against and those red lips! This is a look I personally like. 🙂

New in this collection are:-

  • Color Focus Palette in Blue Enigma (RM135) I’ve only just discovered the Color Focus palettes not long ago and I’m itching to check these out. Colours are deep navy blue, deep violet, Smoky gray and pure white. From the picture I thought it was a brown at the bottom but its actually a smoky gray. I’m not sure if thre is any shimmer in this palette. I would love it if the white was a shimmery tone. I’m not sure about that violet but I’m game to check this one out.
  • Juicy Tubes in Sparkling Ava and Red Gilda (RM68) I’m not a fan of lip glosses but that red one is calling my name! I rather think the packaging looks classier than the usual juicy tubes packaging.
  • Diva Magic Powder in Platinum White (RM150) This is a tub of pure white shimmer to illuminate the face and décolleté area. I have personally seen this powder in action for my sister’s wedding reception makeup and it is an AMAZING product! The shimmer is fine so you don’t get chunks of glitter on your face, but yet when it catches the light, it gives off a gorgeous illuminating effect that is simply wow! One for the parties and special events – dust it all over and bask in the fairy lights!

It would appear that the Lancome C’est Magnifique collection we are getting here is a little different from the collection that has been released in the USA. I always find this rather strange but perhaps its to do with suiting the market and requirements of the people in the different parts of the world. We seem to be getting the Europe release of Lancome. Here’s an example of Lancome’s Color Focus quad for Holidays 2008 that has no bearing on the one we are seeing here – Link. Personally, I prefer ours 🙂

I believe the Lancome C’est Magnifique collection is released in stores this week so now might be a good time to traipse down to the counter and check things out for myself.

    @prettybeautiful : You will only use very very little so yes, your little grandkids would probably be playing with Grandma’s “fairy powder” 🙂 Looking at it that way, it isn’t that expensive is it? 😉

Filorga is now on Shopee and you can get 18% off ( Filorga is now on Shopee and you can get 18% off (code: FILOJUL09) on top of the discounted prices! Any savings is good savings I say esp with all the price hikes everywhere 😟 Until 15 July. 
They just launched the new NCEF Night Mask, an ultra-regenerating sleeping mask that promises to rejuvenate tired skin in just 7 nights! Well That sounds right up my alley! 😮‍💨
I highly recommend the Meso Mask as well for a rejuvenating, hydrating and smoothing boost to the skin. Its a good brand, that I’ve tried in the past and I’m glad we now have it here! 😊

Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Malone installation at Mid Valley Megamall 😍 Jo Malone has always made gifting an experience, both for giver and receiver, and this is what their Jobots are here for - to help you find that perfect gift whether for a friend, family, or for yourself each time you manage to dodge the C-bullet 😆
Go check out the Jobots at Mid Valley Megamall Centre Court & experience their signature hand and arm massages, gift boxing, personalised engraving of your perfume bottles & candle jars & play with the vending machine. You could get lucky! 
No prizes for guessing which Jobot installation was my favourite! The one with the dog of course! They also had a key chain with a dog. So. Bloody. Cute!! 
And after so many years finally got a photo with event organizer extraordinaire @cyrus.chin because we didn’t get the white & beige memo and came instead in (unplanned) matching sunny coral instead 😂 
It felt good to have makeup on, dress up and go out for a tiny little bit, and meet people I haven’t seen in literally years! Also to enjoy the scents (hard to smell with a mask on though) and the visual delights. Go check it out. They’re there at the Centre Court until Sunday 3 July.

✨HELLO✨ Not everyday I wear something decent ✨HELLO✨
Not everyday I wear something decent (I still live in crummy t-shirt, shorts & sweaty athleisure most days) so it merited a photo! 😆 
I put on a full face of makeup today and when it came to my eyeshadow, I had a brain fart moment and forgot where they were! 😂 Looked through 3 drawers before I saw them and even then I thought “Did I ever have THIS MANY?!” I guess I do. And before you ask, yes they’re all expired 🫢
