Lancome L'Absolu Glosses

Lancôme was the first high end brand I have ever tried as an adult and I wore a lot of their makeup on my wedding day, so it has always been pretty special to me.

And they now have a counter in Glasgow too, which is fantastic news!

With Christmas only days away, I am secretly relieved that I am not hosting any guests this festive season. I get myself all worked up and panic and as a self confessed hoarder, I always have a lot of organising to do.
