Lancôme Paris is a leading international manufacturer and marketer of perfume, cosmetic, and skin care products. It is a cosmetics division of L'Oréal (along with Biotherm, Kiehl's, and others.)

The company began in 1935, when its founder, Armand Petitjean was exploring the ruins of a castle, Le Château de Lancosme, while vacationing in the French countryside. Petitjean's inspiration for the company's symbol, a golden rose, were the many wild roses growing around the castle.

Lancôme launched its first five fragrances in 1935 at the World's Fair in Brussels. The fragrances were: Tendre Nuit, Bocages, Conquete, Kypre and Tropiques. Lancome expanded its business into makeup and skincare products. One noteworthy product was Nutrix launched in 1936 which celebrated its 70th anniversary in 2006.

In 1978, at the age of eighteen, Carol Alt became the youngest model to be the face of Lancome. Nancy Dutiel also modelled for Lancome during this period.

Beginning in 1982, Isabella Rossellini was Lancôme's exclusive international spokesmodel for 14 years. Juliette Binoche, Uma Thurman, Mena Suvari, Ines Sastre, Shalom Harlow, Drew Barrymore and Marie Gillain have also been spokesmodels for Lancôme. In 2005 Lancome unveiled Daria Werbowy as one of their new spokesmodels, and in 2006 Raica Oliveira.

In early 2007, Clive Owen became the first spokesman for Lancôme's Men's skincare range and the new fragrance Hypnôse Homme.

On June 11 2007, Kate Winslet was unveiled as the latest spokesmodel for Lancôme. Her first assignment will be the relaunch of the classic Lancôme fragrance Trésor (formerly promoted by Inés Sastre) in late 2007.

January 2, 2007, actress Anne Hathaway was announced as the newest brand ambassador, set to front a the counter's new fragrance, Magnifique due for release in August 2008

Excellent, my skin looks great after I started using Obagi, these products are a "Must have"

This is a great product, especially used with the Obagi system. I've used toners in the past and they dried out my skin-- this product does not do that- it just removes soap residue and leaves your skin soft and ready for other products.

does create awesome dramatic lashes!! kind of hard to get used to, but worth it!

I've used Almay One-Coat Mascara for years and always get so many compliments. But after losing so many lashes due to medications, I thought I'd try this. It was awful. The applicator comes out w/the mascara piled on it, you can't even see the applicator. It clumps lashes together and you end up looking like you have 5 or 6 spider legs on your eyes. It went into the trash and I was out 3x the money of my Almay. Never switching again. At least what lashes I have look natural and lush.

This mascara is pretty amazing. It takes just a few coats to make your lashes dramatically longer and thicker, and you end up with a beautiful upward curl without having to use a curler beforehand. I give it an A+. If you're looking for a very "natural" look, this probably isn't for you (and that's why I gave it 4 rather than 5 stars -- everyone will be able to tell you are wearing mascara), because it really makes your lashes stand out. However, if you're looking for a "wow" effect, this one really does the job.

This product won the prestigious "Longest Name for the Smallest Product" award given by the Italian Cosmetico Ridiculositio Society (2008). Honored posthumously at the award ceremony was the late Jean Luc Tomthumboleaux, the Lancome employee responsible for hand-lettering the product name on each and every mascara tube as Lancome was unable to find printing equipment small enough for their packaging. For those seeking the ultimate in lash-plumping, this product is a must-have. The effect is truly 3D, but only when applied to two dimensional lashes, such as found in Barbie coloring books and on Anna Nicole Smith paperdolls. But hey, people will believe anything they're told and forget that their lashes were already 3D. Scientists are already working on products to create even huger lashes. Chia is about to announce their new Chia Lash, which is a small jar of mud containing ready-to-sprout Monkey Grass. They promise thick lashes 12" long in only a week! Stephen Hawking is working on his Ultimate Universe Lash Extendorizer, which incorporates string and Big Bang theories to produce lashes that will reach to the moon .02 seconds after application. And of course Martha Stewart will be unveiling her "Handmade Luscious Lash Linens" line to keep those giant hairy eye-protectors fashionably covered and comfy at night. It's an exciting time for eyelashes, folks.

This is a must have. The 3-dimensional aspect of the masacara comb is unmatched. It is awesome. I can't fathom why on earth this would be discontinued. Get it, wherever you can, while supplies last!!

I've tried mnay suncreens looking for one that provides great protections, goes on smoothly without leaving ugly blotches, doesn't clog pores or create allergic reactions (runny eyes) as soon as I sweat. I was introduced to this product by my primary care physician and have used it on face and hands for several years with good results. I have never found it any local story and it is expensive in the doctor's office. I'm glad to find it thourhg Amazon.

I love this product. It is not greasy. It does not have any heavy fragances and it has never made me break out.

Works great for my combination skin. Leaves it feeling smooth and even. Smells great, too. Considering it has SPF 30, it feels light.
