Lancôme Pout-a-Porter Designer Collection Lipsticks

[pinksatin]

SO I got the email from lancome-usa.com (I subscribe) and PS kiss is in my shopping bag. While I'm at it, is there anything else good from lancome to add to the order?

NM. I remembered I need another flash retouche

 

[pinksatin]

So I have it coming I hope. *crossing fingers* I'm scared something bad will happen though like with the proenza one. That was bad news. Calling so many places and I never did end up getting one of those..

My Lancome SA just called - it's in

I'll be picking it up today and will report back! Just wanted to share my good news with people who will understand

 

[Hipkitten]

Well I got it! It looks just like the picture - it's a bit more pink on me (all lipsticks are) which I'm not crazy about but I need to play with it more.

When I got it I was so excited I ran to my car and put it on. Unfortunately I was a bit sloppy and didn't use a lip brush - all I'm going to say is that it does stain skin

 

[pinksatin]

ooo! yay! Do you want to post a pic with it on? If you don't I understand but it would be cool to see it on real people with different skin tones besides the models...

^ second! i'm really interested in this color.

 

[Hipkitten]

Let me think on it

I've already taken my makeup off for the evening so perhaps I'll post pics tomorrow. If I decide not to post in the forum, I can PM a pic to whomever wants one. We'll see how I feel about it tomorrow evening

 

[pinksatin]

you could crop your eyes upward out? It's no big deal since I have it ordered but just to compare how it looks on different skins since they always say these are supposed to be good for everyone...

My lipstick came yesterday! Beautiful. I think I'll wear it today but it's superbold so just a little black mascara and nothing else to go with it...

i still really want this color - they sold out on the Lancome site (should have just ordered! ) so now i'm trying to find it elsewhere. i just really don't want to pay for shipping! i'm going to call my local Nordstrom to see if they still have any.

i just really don't want to pay for shipping!

I think shipping was free if you had a $50+ total purchase. I didn't want to pay it eithe so I jsut added on stuff I would normally buy at the counter. Good luck getting it!

I wanted to love my PS Kiss...I really did...but alas it just looked too fuschia on me so I swapped it on MUA. As much as I disliked the color on me, I couldn't help but get a bit emotional when I packed it up to ship. I had such high hopes

I am still very excited for the Thakoon color to come out, though. I found this image on thebeautyalchemist.blogspot.com. Looks like I'll be wringing my hands until its release in February!

i'm really interested too. it looks super pretty. i don't want to miss out on this like i did PS Kiss.

from makeupbag.net:
"For Spring 2008, Gucci Westman and designer Thakoon created the next installment of Lancôme’s Pout-á-Porter limited-edition lipstick series.

Here’s what Gucci has to say about Lancôme Pout-á-Porter Thakoon Lipstick:

“I imagined a Japanese girl in Kauai—kind of a surfer look, but much more refined. Thakoon wanted something translucent in a cooler tone—not too light, not too bright. I picked up on the fuchsia from some of the clothes and decided to go with a stain effect. to get the right shade, I started with a beige undertone to neutralize any redness in the lip. Then I added a fleshy, pink tone and mixed it with a blue fuchsia. It’s a creamy stain—not a matte, dry one—with an almost satiny finish. I love that it’s a totally fresh, uncomplicated lip for spring.”

Gucci! We’re a (part) Japanese girl from Kauai!

As with all the lipsticks in this limited-edition series, this is a must-have for us."

Pixel Pink is up!

still debating whether i should order this or not. i need to make a firm decision and just buy - or not. it does look very pretty and perfect for spring. and it's sheer which i love.

 

[pinksatin]

pixel pink is unavailable. I just tried placing an order. Maybe I will try calling lancome boutiques.

 

[Hipkitten]

I called Neiman Marcus today and they said they don't have it but will be getting it next week - so I gave them my CC number so I get it as soon as it comes it. I am so excited for this color

 

[pinksatin]

Oh good for you hipkitten! I'm excited for you.

So if NM doesn't get it until next week I wonder if the "not currently available" meant that it was sold out or if it meant that it isn't yet available. I think I'll keep trying. I only just got the email announcing it today or yesterday.
