I have used and loved Bi-facil and Flash Bronzer for a number of years and always have a bottle of each on the go.

It's my birthday soon and I'd like to get some bits for my birthday.

I'm early 30s, clear skin which is 'normal skin type and starting to get some very fine lines.

Tell me more about flash bronzer? I remember using a lancome bronzer ages ago and I felt like a millionaire.

Their monsieur big mascara is the best I’ve ever used. I’ve tried a lot!

@MorrisZapp It's amazing stuff! And a little goes a long way. I use it on my face, neck and decolletage. It's blends seamlessly, doesn't streak and gives a lovely glowy colour not a 'fake tan' look. Love it so much!

Will check it out, I love the Clarins one but it is quite drying.

Palominoo · 07/04/2019 11:27

I will never stop using this, it's fantastic

I often but this but don't use all the time as i like to use different things for washing my face

There is also a rose sugar scrub but it's no different from other sugar scrubs.

@Palominoo I've been leaning towards the Tonique Confort! Feel unique do a travel size which is only £13, tempted to get a small one to try and no real loss if I'm not keen. Do you use it along side anything else?

I take my make up off early evening as I wear make up every day and it's nice to have a few hours before bedtime without any make up on.

After my skin is completely clean and dry I use tonique confort although I call it my Barbapapa juice as it is the same pink colour!

I apply with a cotton pad and sweep gently over my face. It feels lovely and the rose aroma is not overwhelming but is lovely.

It is like giving my skin a little drink.

Just before bed I then use other products, serum, moisturiser etc

I love all of the mascaras. The bi facil eye make up remover is excellent. The foundations are excellent too!

itsinchicago · 07/04/2019 16:07

I don't buy any of them, they are far too expensive for what they are.

BestIsWest · 07/04/2019 16:41

I like the Custom glow drops highlighter. A tiny amount goes a long way. Teint Miracle is my go-to foundation. Great for middle aged skin.

AwdBovril · 07/04/2019 16:44

The only products I like by Lancome are the foundation (teint idole, I think, as they do a much wider range of shades - I'mvery pale) & the makeup remover - the bi-phase one, it's fab for getting waterproof mascara off. Apart from that, possibly perfume?

Sorensmum · 07/04/2019 16:53

I like the perfumes and my step mum adores the foundation and mascara and she has money to burn and has tried and used everything from Chanel to aldi bb cream but swears by the mascara. I used it once didn't do miracles for me but no mascara does.

@BestIsWest I used to Iove the custom drops! The colour I used was sold out for so long I'd actually forgot about them, thank yoi for reminding me 😊

@itsinchicago So why comment? I asked for recommendations for a brand I like.

I don't think the eye make up remover is great to be honest. I love teint idole foundation and volume a porter mascara. Don't find the eyeshadows are particularly pigmented.

La Belle est Vie and Eau de Lancôme

MenstruatorExtraordinaire · 07/04/2019 21:01

The mascaras are the best I have ever used.

Ponks · 07/04/2019 21:21

I love the miel en mousse cleanser, heavenly honey smell

AdoraBell · 07/04/2019 22:21

I love their mascara, eyeshadows and lipsticks. Can’t get on with skincare so I stick with Clarins as that really works well for me.

itsinchicago · 08/04/2019 13:57

So why comment? Why not?

BusterGonad · 08/04/2019 14:14

itsinchicago I too wondered why you bothered to comment. Just to be annoying I guess?

BusterGonad · 08/04/2019 14:42

Op my favorite ever Lancôme product was a lipstick called Rock and Roll fuchsia (in a square tube with a sheet panel of the lipstick colour). It was amazing and had a metallic sheen to it, not in a pearl like way but more of a oil sleek way where the colour changed in the light.
I don't think I own any Lancôme at the moment but I've had their Christmas bonus vanity set and I've rated the eyeshadows for a natural look, I think I had a quad in rose shades, I've liked their mascara too, the foundations have an amazing shade range especially if you are pale. I like the hydra Zen moisturizer. I love their perfume in the purple bottle. Midnight ????. Oh and I had a gorgeous burgundy lipstick too in the black tube. Of course back in the 90s I had many a Juicy Tube! Grin

*sheer not sheet!

JPK1510 · 08/04/2019 16:08

Lancôme hydra zen is amazing couldn’t be without 😍

Lancôme Miel-en-mousse Foaming Cleanser Makeup Remover

Best foaming cleanser I've found in years

TheMarbleFaun · 08/04/2019 20:03

Another vote for the mascara - best I've ever used
