I recently had the opportunity to try three new Lancome products. All of them were top notch and deserve a proper review. I’ll definitely be repurchasing them in the future.

Lancome Beauty Haul

Lancome Official Visionnaire Crescendo Peel. For this one, I completed the full 28-day program. My pores appeared smaller and my skin looked smoother and brighter. If you have sensitive skin I would avoid this product though, as Phase 2 does leave a burning sensation.

Out of the two phases, I prefer Phase 1 which reduces pores, improve skin texture and radiance. The first 14 days I could really tell a difference, but I did break out a bit. Phase 2 reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots. I have dark spots under my chin and was hoping to reduce those, but I’m not sure Phase 2 was as effective in this area. I should have taken a before and after photo, but I have enough product to try again so I might give it another shot.

Lancome Bienfait SPF 50 Sunscreen. This is the first SPF 50 I’ve ever tried. It shields the skin from UVA and UVB rays that may contribute to skin damage and premature aging. It’s also recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation, which I appreciated. I love the oil-free, lightweight formula and how it didn’t leave my skin feeling greasy. It’s also formulated for all skin types, even sensitive. As an added bonus, no SPF smell! I honestly can’t say enough good things about this product.

Lancome Matte Shaker Liquid Lipstick. The sponge-like applicator really helps with creating a precise application. I love the formula, it literally feels like a second skin! 🙌 Another plus, no smudging or bleeding. However, it’s a bit on the dry side and could use a gloss. It’s definitely long-wearing though, which I absolutely love. I can’t wait to try the other colors.

Have you tried any of these products? Share your experience with me in the comments.

I love supporting local small businesses and was recently introduced to IQ Natural. IQ Natural is an organic skincare company based out of Portland, Oregon. They sell natural skincare and mineral makeup products. The company has been around for 14 years and is ran by a team of 5. IQ Natural products use the purest ingredients (no chemical or fillers), and are never tested on animals. Most of the products are made in-house.

IQ Natural Clarifying Daily Care Set

I received the Clarifying Daily Care Set. This set includes a cleanser, toner, and lotion. The trio is formulated for acne and blemished skin, clearing blackheads and preventing breakouts. The cleaner is gentle on the skin and won’t dry it out. The toner is soothing and balances out the natural oils in your skin. The lotion is hydrating but does leave a shiny finish. I prefer matte.

I’ve been using these products for under a week and I can already tell the difference. My skin is clear and visibly rejuvenated. The only thing I didn’t like is the smell, which is chemical-like (to my nose). This is probably due to the natural ingredients.

IQ Natural Super Facial

I also received the Super Facial. This mask is like nothing I’ve used before. It simultaneously tightens, brightens, tones, and exfoliates. Ingredients include mud and seaweed. I could do without the smell, but the end results were glowy, fresh-faced skin. This mask might be too much for someone with sensitive skin. It left mine feeling a bit tingly.

IQ Natural Makeup

I really want to try their makeup next. So many gorgeous options. I am a big fan of finishing powders and I love Tarte’s Amazonian powder and Pixi’s Quick Fix powder. IQ Natural has a Setting Veil that I want to try. I might need to do a blog post comparing all three. I’m also adding this mascara and these lip glosses to my wish list.
