I'm working for you in a stormy downpour, but rather than trudge to Bergdorf for the beauty scoop, I just put on my elegant red Cacharel dress, and dialed in.
This is what the Lancome femme of Bergdorf had to say on the line, all with her dainty French accent. You may have heard about the much-coveted Lancome Proenza Pink, as in Proenza Schouler, lipstick that sold out lickety-split. If you didn't catch the Proenza Pink in time, this is the Bergdorf Goodman beauty counter trick to achieve the same creamy, ethereal color:
Carefully line your lips with a white eye pencil, Lancome's Le Crayon Kohl in Blanc, and fill in the lip area with the Blanc Crayon Kohl as well.
Then, layer Lancome Color Design Lipstick in Poodle Skirt over it. (See color swatch below.)
Just like that, without a dewdrop of rain.
Buy it: Lancome Le Crayon Kohl in Blanc, white ($22) and Lancome Color Design Lipstick in Poodle Skirt ($24.00), Bergdorf Goodman.
