Springtime at Lancome
Pink Irreverence Collection
Inspiration for the Spring collection are French heroines Madame Bovary, Sylvie Fleurie, Marie Curie and Brigitte Bardot.
The pinks are reminiscent of Lancôme’s iconic rose, while the deep black shades are evocative of the Piha volcanic black beaches of Aaron De Mey's native homeland of New Zealand. This collection also marks the return of the limited-edition Color Fever Gloss in Piha Black. Finally this black gloss will be available at all Lancome counters.
La Laque Fever Full Color Lipshine
Passionate about painting, Aaron De Mey wanted to recreate the purity of lacquer color in a lip product. Densely pixilated pearls combine with polymers to give multi-dimensional shine that lasts for six hours. The ultra-modern, silver streamlined packaging conveys all the color and shine contained within. Available in four daring, non-fading shades: Electric Pink, Optical Rose, Lucent Nude and Iridescent. $26.00
Color Design Eyeshadow Quad
Two new eye shadow palettes express the color statement and the free, irreverent spirit of Aaron’s spring collection. Use the black sparkling shade in the Irreverent Madame palette to structure the eye. Layer and play with the remaining matte pink shades to bring the look up or down. $42.00
Laque Liner
This eyeliner’s precise brush makes lining and defining easy and fun. The Pure Black shade is perfect for creating a deep intense look, while Pure Sparkle’s clear, shimmery formula instantly enlightens eyes. $25.00
Color Design Illuminator for Eyes and Face
This creamy, cooling gel can be used alone or blended over another color to highlight and brighten the eye area. Apply the light texture over your eyelid and up to the brow bone or experiment by bringing it from the eye down to the cheekbone to create a beautiful aura that lights up the face. Available in two shades: High Expectations and Hard to Get. $20.00
Color Fever Gloss in Piha Black
Back by popular demand, Piha Black adds an irreverent twist to the spring collection with its deep black and sparkly, volcanic beach inspired color. Used as a topcoat, the gloss brings a subtle dark intensity and brightness to other lip shades. Use alone for an edgier look. $25.00
Le Vernis Nail Polish
Take your nails to the extreme. For a dark sultry look, accessorize your nails with Piha Black, the same gorgeous, sparkly black shade found in the Color Fever Gloss. Lighten things up with Sassiness, a pink shade that, according to Aaron, “is the ultimate color of spring.” $18.00
This collection will be arriving at Lancome counters this month. If you have seen it...let us know your thoughts in the comments.....

I will definitely be checking out the Illuminator and of course, the nail polish.
Funny, when I first noticed your blog, I thought it was the official blog for Bergdorf Goodman. Then I noticed your little disclaimer ;) hahaha
i have never been a huge fan of lancome but this pink collection speaks to me!!
I jumped too quickly on the Dame Edna train and am now the walking wounded. The EL and Lancome fuchsias look that much easier to wear and appear to be gentler to the eye.
Will be checking out that lipstick!
Thanks for reporting on these.
I think I *need* Sassiness polish!
I really think Lancome keeps developing one of the strongest cosmetic products around. I cannot start my day without their concealer. They're just so solid, yet innovative. I'm glad that you seem to be a fan as well. The illuminator is definitely something that will be experimented with. And I'm not sure about the rest but black gloss is still (after all this hype) strangely alluring. I might add this to this list of toys to play with.

I just purchased from the collection yesterday. The Piha Black gloss I already have, but I did get the nail polish -- it's just like the gloss but in polish form! The pink polish is a sheer-ish, very wearable spring color.
FYI, the Lip Lacque actually comes in a whole range of colors, not just the four they're promoting. I bought four of them (Electric Pink, a plum color, a light pink, and a medium cool rose pink). The colors are beautiful and the texture is so nice -- it gives great coverage and lasts, but it doesn't feel sticky or goopy.
The eye quads were nice but a little too avante-garde for me. I did get the sparkly liquid eye liner, though. It's extremely easy to apply and if you do it lightly not over the top at all.
I wish I knew the black gloss will be available on it's own. I bought it in a set with tomato red lippy, loving the gloss, not really loving the lippy.
I'm really loving this collection; I bought the Piha black nailpolish and the Piha black lipgloss. I also want the eye shadow quad and the electric pink lipgloss. Sassiness nailpolish looks pretty too!
The color design eyeshadow quad instantly captivated my eyes, Can't wait to get my hands on them! :)
