Today I am all about the new Lancome collection, I still have not yet ordered a second bronzer for the summer months and I know that Lancome creates fabulous bronzers. It goes without saying that a bronzer will be in my next Sephora order so right now I am skewing my summer collection coverage to companies that have been known in past seasons for top rated and award winning bronzer formulas. Today we are looking at Lancome and I am hoping that both Clinique and Clarins have their summer collections up now or will have them up within the next few days!
Lancome's summer collection is named Aquatic Summer and contains more than one formula of bronzer along with some new shades of their famous nail polish formula. The collection is comprised of products that contain shades of bronzes and aquas for all features of the face. The Macy's website has additional description of the collection that the Lancome website does not so I will provide that one for all of you. "Lancôme invites you to plunge into our Aquatic Summer Color Collection. Ultramarine greens and electric blues echo cool spontaneity, while warm summer rays transform into golden glows. Bronzed skin, glossy lips and nails, and a customized eye look is the perfect way to transition from the winter blahs into summer sizzle."

I am really interested in four products in this collection; the bronzer palette, the bronzer, the new nail polish shades, and the perfume. At this point in the season, I am nearly done buying any warm weather perfumes, by the time that I begin to find room for the bottles on my dresser and begin using them, fall will be just around the corner and they will end up just taking up space on my dresser as I want to get more into heavier fragrances. That being said, I will need to try this at the counter and then maybe put a bottle aside for next spring, the mixture of rose, peony, and the light citrus scents could be a great fragrance for me and a staple in my fragrance line up.
As much as I want a new bottle of perfume now, I need to look at the color products as these are what I am much more likely to be buying right now. My top priority is another bronzer formula, I think that I will start off with the traditional single bronzer, then if I like that formula I might consider purchasing the palette that has the bronzer inside. The website didn't give much of a description of what shade is contained in the palette or if there are more than one shade of bronzer that is available in the palette. This might have to be seen at the counter before I order it.
I want every single shade of the nail polish, one of the last products that I should be growing my collection of! All of the blues are great shades and are different than the blues that I already own. Everyone knows that I cannot resist any shade of blue polish and these are three great blues! I have never used a nail polish from Lancome before and now I feel that I need to start collecting polishes from this new formula.
I must concentrate on finding another bronzer formula for the summer even though I keep getting distracted by fragrances and nail polishes. I am hopeful that Lancome formulas are really as good as all the hype surrounding them and I can't wait to find you!
