Mornings at my house are chaotic at best. If everyone walks out the door fed and dressed with bodies intact, I feel I’ve conquered the world. Once in the carpool lane and off to work, I catch a glimpse in the rear view mirror and realize the “me time” at the vanity did not make it into the AM routine.
What needs to be done to cover up my wonderfully experienced skin is not going to happen in the nanoseconds between making scrambled eggs and packing almost organic lunches. To make matters worse, the sun spots, wrinkles, and redness will not be wiped out with a simple swipe of tinted moisturizer. Bring out the big guns, please.
I asked for the ammo and Judy from Lancôme delivered. I made my way to her cosmetic command center (at Dillard’s in the Galleria Mall) in search of the wonder foundation that would conceal, protect, cover, and even out my skin―and yes, I want one product to do it all. Judy made it happen. With a few strokes of a precise foundation brush, she introduced me to my new break of day best friend―14-hour oil-free Tient Idole Ultra Foundation.
Not easily convinced that an amateur like myself would be able to work the same magic, I took my free 10-day supply of foundation (offered at all Lancôme counters at time of post) and gave it a whirl and a mere 90 seconds the next morning. It does everything I want it to do with exactly one layer of paint and is easy as pie to apply―Judy told me I could put it on with my eyes closed which I have not tried yet.
With a newfound faith in the power of one product, I’m headed back to buy my beauty bestie in a full-size bottle on October 3 when Lancôme at Dillard’s locations will be offering a gift with purchase―sign me up Judy.
