You know when you get ‘the beauty thrills’? Totally those with the Lancome La Palette 29, Faubourg Saint Honore which is from the forthcoming Lancome seasonal gifting range. I don’t even think it’s too early – all Christmassy stuff will start going into stores in a matter of weeks – if I didn’t have this sitting right here, it would 100% be on my wish list.
There are six eye shades in a mix of sheen, matte and shimmer (the golden shade second in is the most ‘frosted’) and at the end in a flip lid compartment, three lip colours designed for an ombre lip. I’ve never seen that before in a palette.
As you can see, there’s an removable use guide stuck to the mirror – given how little room there is, they’re remarkably clear, and indicate a day look, a night look and how to get the ombre lip look. I feel this is quite an exciting venture for Lancome – I’m slightly short on info at the moment; I know the Lancome La Palette 29, Faubourg Saint Honore is limited edition, but whether there are more, and how much it is, I don’t really know. I will have more info later in the week so I’ll do swatches then, but this one is so pretty I thought you’d like to see it as soon as I had it.

Ooh so lovely! I must admit that as a beauty junkie I find this the most exciting time of year as I love seeing the wonderful palettes and sets that come out for Christmas time. I start saving early every year to make sure I can purchase a couple (or more!!)
Hey Jane! I was wondering, do you have any updates on the Iluminage Touch hair removal device? I am interested in purchasing it and I wanted to know if your views on it had changed/whether you have any updates in terms of results etc..?! Thank you + have fab day!!! x lisa
Hi there.. yes, I’m so sorry I haven’t updated yet but strangely, while it’s worked very well on my legs, it hasn’t yet had the same effects under arms, so I’m giving it a bit longer before I do a full review.
This one looks really pretty! Too bad I already have so many neutral palettes that I cannot find a reason to get it 🙂 I find it quite odd that the O in Lancome does not have the ^ accent. Looking forward to the swatches anyway!
okay thank you for your reply!! I might wait for your next review then before purchasing;)!
I wonder if Lisa Eldridge had a hand in creating this palette? It’s definitely a bit different from their usual palettes (not a bad thing).
actually, i’m waiting on info about that.. when I swatch it I will include if she has any say in the colour selections or design x
Pretty!
by the way I’m thrilled with your video by Sali Hughes as I’d always hoped you’d be in one 🙂
Sorry but I think this looks so boring. Really, I mean Boots No7 could have made it at half the price. I thought the Lisa Elderidge products are not due until next year.
No, she started with the past Lancome Spring collection.
I agree this one is a bit expected, but maybe it’s intentional so that it makes a good gift with “safe” types of shades?
I like the look of it. As someone else said, I’ve got enough neutrals that I don’t think I’ll invest this time. Feels like it’d be a nice gift though (as I guess it’s intended) for someone that loves make-up. Pending on price I may gift it to someone.
