LE VERNIS

Lancôme — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 11:20:12 +0000

Aaron De Mey predicts this season’s nail look will be DISCO MANICURE; lacquered choreography that delicately tips nails. The LAVENDER shade coats the entire surface of the nail, while the silver tint emphasises tips to dress hands in DISCO style. A duo of accessible mini eco-disco polishes. This season’s IT-SHADES Lavender and Silver are captured in the new Le Vernis bottle. An ULTRA-GLOSSY and long-lasting Lancôme formula.

Aaron De Mey’s expert advice:
To capture light right to the tips of your nails, apply the Lavender shade over the whole nail surface and then use Disco Silver to dance over and embellish nail tips.

Christmas

Lancôme — Wed, 22 Dec 2010 13:52:24 +0000

The Christmas time is a special moment, so , you need special make up. For this, I use the Christmas Lancôme Collection by L’wrent Scott.

I prepare the skin with Génifique and unify it with Teint Miracle. Don’t forget to add a point of light on the middle of nose and cheeks with Éclat Miracle!! The Blush Subtil 02 to intensify the cheeks and warm its.

I use Ombre Absolue Palette G60, I apply the light color on complete eyelid, and then I create a deep by applying the dark color on external part of the eyes and blend it inside.

On lips, I apply L’Absolu Crème de Brillance 176 by tapping with fingers.
On nails, the beautiful color of Le Vernis, the shade 020.

I wish you a beautiful Christmas and all the best for this New Year!!

Have you seen all these beautiful colors everywhere ? Fashion, beauty, jewels… all in bright and sunny harmony ! I find it delicious, it is so adapted to summer.

For once, I suggest you to match your lips and nails colors with Color Fever Gloss “Orange Scopitone 120” and “Le Vernis “Orange Fluorama” 008: they will be very pretty together, and you’ll have the feeling to be on holiday !

Summer nail polish

Lancôme — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 09:34:50 +0000

Summer is here! It’s manicure time!
If you’re not used to wearing dark or bright colors on your hands, feel free to apply them on your toes, they look great in little sandals… and if you’re not shy, play with Le Vernis and its dazzling colors on your fingers.
My favourite one this month? Number 103, a delicious red coral, so trendy this season and a great match for any skin tone.
Oh, and a little tip for you: if your manicure looks a bit messy, use a small nylon brush (a make up one) dipped in polish remover to fix it; it’s much more precise than a cotton swab!
