Lancome Make-Up

Globally recognised as one of the world's leading beauty brands, Lancome has long been a pioneer in its field. Its focus on enduring and award-winning formulas has meant many Lancome make-up items are already considered classics. Founded in the 1930s by visionary Armand Petitjean, the label continues to develop its range today, bringing fine French luxury into make-up bags worldwide with its thoughtfully designed products.

Alongside the brand's skin care and fragrance range, Lancome cosmetics encompass everything from eyeliners to lipsticks, blushers and bronzers. Its innovative foundations draw on years of scientific research to provide long-lasting coverage and a flawless-looking complexion. Even better, they're available in an inclusive variety of shades to match any skin tone. The colours of the band's highly pigmented eyeshadows also span a wide spectrum, from neutrals to brights in matte, shimmer and metallic finishes.

With a mission to enhance natural beauty, it's hardly surprising that so many Lancome beauty products have been hand-picked for use by some of the world's leading make-up artists. And while it might be what's on the inside that counts, the brand uses sleek black, hard-case packaging and instantly recognisable metallic branding – so these products look good enough to take pride of place on your dressing table.
