Make Up by Lancôme: Mascara, Foundation and Lipsticks

Lancome can also be seen in the field of make-up. The brand has a wide range of different make-up products. We have collected popular products for the perfect make-up look for you here.

Perfect foundation for your skin type : Teint Idole, Teint Miracle and Hydra Zen

The perfect make-up starts with the optimal foundation. Lancome offers products for different skin needs and the color selection tries to offer you a perfect match. Small tip: If you should not find your skin tone despite the large color selection, you can mix the colors with each other. If you want to mix different foundations, check first if both have the same base. For example, water-based foundations don't blend well with oil-based foundations. This could lead to an unsightly, blotchy result.

In general, the base of foundation can be of great relevance when buying, as different skin types have different needs. For example, water-based foundations are suitable for skin that tends to produce excessive sebum. Oil-based foundations pair better with dry skin. Wax-based foundations, such as stick foundations, promise better durability, but can stay on the skin and be more difficult to blend, depending on the skin type.

These are all things you should be aware of before buying foundation, so you can make the perfect choice. If you have a favorite foundation but want to try something new or haven't found the perfect color yet, just take a look at the composition and compare it with the ingredients of the foundation you have your eye on. Here we have collected a few foundations from Lancome and also tell you the same for which skin type these are best suited.

• Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear: oily and combination skin (oil-free, matte finish)
• Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Stick: normal and dry skin (with oil and paraffin-like substances)
• Lancome Teint Miracle: very dry to normal skin (water-based with glycerine)
• Lancome Hydra Zen BB Cream: oily, combination and normal skin (water-based with alcohol)
• Lancome Teint Visionnaire: 2 in 1 for mature skin

Of course, there's hardly anything like a test, but this way you can start your foundation purchase prepared.

Imagine you come home in the evening. The day was exhausting and your nerves are tense. A hot drink or a glass of wine is what you want. So you grab the drink of your choice and head for the bathroom. There you draw yourself a hot bath. While the bath water flows into the tub, you remove the residues of the day from your face with the Eau Micellaire Confort. You tuck your hair out of your face and apply the refreshing Hydra Zen Jelly Mask. Then you slowly slide into the comforting warm bathtub. With a book, a film, a radio play, relaxing music or whatever helps you to switch off. You soak up the warmth. Your muscles relax. The daily routine is behind you. Maybe you even lit some candles or used a fragrant bubble bath.

After a while you get out of your bath water, which has cooled down a bit in the meantime. You wrap yourself in a towel and spread your favorite body lotion in massaging movements on your skin. Then it's time for your face. The mask is washed off and the soft skin that appears underneath is treated with the Hydra Zen Anti-Stress Cream. Gently spread the nourishing cream over your skin.

Nutrix: Care for face and body

The Nutrix skincare range by Lancome offers a rich selection of products for face and body. They offer the perfect complement to the relaxing products of the Hydra Zen series. So if you want to add Lancome body care to your spa routine, the Nutrix range is the place to go. The range offers hand cream, body lotion and a moisturiser for that extra dose of care.What's the difference between lotion and cream? We'll tell you here:

The main difference lies in the richness of the products. Body creams and body butters usually have a higher fat content. This has a greater care effect, but at the same time they need longer to be absorbed. Body creams and butters often leave an oily film on the skin. Body lotions on the other hand focus more on moisture retention with the help of glycerine. While glycerin has the advantage of being plant-based and less greasy on the skin, it can also leave a sticky film. On the other hand, body lotions are lighter and absorb faster into the skin.
