A couple weeks ago, I stopped by the Lancome counter to see if they had any new lacquer for fall. The customer service associate told me that they had the samples in but not the actual product. She took my name and number and said she’d call when they came in.
Five minutes later, I got the call.
Turns out, they did get the shipment in, and the samples were actual representations of the size of the polish bottles!
It’s a cute little set. Onto swatches!
This is a peachy gold is a nice fall color – unexpected (I usually think of spring or summer with peach), but I picture it pairing nicely with my brown suit!
This color reminds me of a cranberry creme. Eh.
This berry has white or silver shimmer with touches of pink shimmer that are noticable in the bottle. This is the only color I was interested in buying before I knew it came as part of a trio.
Overall, nothing too exciting. Nice portable colors with nice application. The shape of the smaller bottles was good; I didn’t find it awkward like I sometimes find OPI minis to be.
I could have sworn I paid $25 for this, but it’s listed for $29 on the Nordstrom site here.
What do you think of this fall offering from Lancome?

I bought this also. I bought mine from the Lancome site. I fell for the extras that they always give you. I could’ve saved my money! These are nice shades but nothing that I don’t already have. I was worried about you! Glad your back and I kept checking to see if you posted. I like the makeup look for Fall. I love the deeper shade of lipstick. It was hard not to buy it, but $26!
