Lancôme: Rise with the Dragon

Of the 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac, the legendary dragon has come to symbolise prosperity and vitality. As we usher in the Year of the Dragon, Lancôme wants us to embrace the power of making the impossible possible with the energy that the magnificent dragon brings with an exceptional collection dressed in a limited-edition Chinese New Year design by London-based Chinese artist Jacky Tsai.

A perfect blend of east and west, the specially designed gift boxes weave the symbols of Shanghai and Paris together seamlessly: as the Dragon rises, the sky is filled with petals, creating a trail of wonders, and bringing hope and prosperity to the land below. The stars of the exclusive collection are the well-loved Advanced Génifique Serum and Absolue Soft Cream, and a fresh addition: the new L’Absolu Rouge Intimatte Liquid – a creamy liquid lipstick with a soft matte finish and an almost naked lip texture.

The new L’Absolu Rouge Intimatte Liquid (SG$58) comes in six shades for different skin tones, ranging from nude to rosy and brown tones. Among these, the two shades #275 French Nude and #279 French Rose are specifically created for Asian complexions. With an enriched formula containing a blend of Grand Rose Extracts, Soothing Ceramide, and smokelight pigments, this weightless liquid lip cream focuses on balancing comfort and beauty while reinforcing the lipid barrier to protect lips from dehydration.

The Advanced Génifique Serum comes in 115ml for the limited-edition 2024 Chinese New Year packaging (SG$352). A bestseller for a reason, this anti-aging serum helps to improve the look of dull skin and the signs of ageing by strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier. Formulated with 10% bifidus prebiotic, hyaluronic acid and vitamin Cg, it locks in hydration and provides defence against external aggressors like pollution, the cold, and dry weather. Used morning and night, it promises to visibly hydrate, plump and even skin tone in 7 days.

Another anti-ageing power product that comes in the limited-edition 2024 Chinese New Year packaging is the Absolue Soft Cream in 60ml (SG$520), a creamy yet lightweight face moisturiser that visibly brightens & firms your skin, delivering up to 24 hours of hydration with its exclusive blend of grand rose extracts, pro-xylane, shea butter, and meadowfoam seed oil. Over time, signs of ageing are visibly reduced as the skin looks more radiant and even, with a smoother, more supple texture.

To shop and experience the festive offerings in full celebratory mode, look forward to the upcoming pop-up event at Paragon Orchard where you can browse the limited-edition Chinese New Year sets while enjoying Beauty Tech services and podium-exclusive activities: a complimentary photo opportunity, and surprise free gifts at the Lancôme Fortune Wall available upon registration.
