For Lancome’s Spring 2012 makeup collection Roseraie des Délices Aaron de Mey was inspired by Lancome’s founder, Armand Petitjean, rose garden outside Paris.
This collection is all about pastel shades of rose, green and peach. Very Spring appropriate.
La Roseraie Blush Palette, £32.50
La Roseraie Blush evens out and illuminates skin with a sheer veil. Its rosy shade brightens the complexion, while the peach hues warm the face. The hint of green mother of pearl corrects redness.
Les Yeux Doux, £33
- Vert Tendresse, delicate pink shades, delicate pistachio and mint hues
- Rose Romance, pale pinks and accents of fuchsia
Aaron’s Tip: Apply a delicate veil of the paler shade over the whole eyelid simply using your fingertips. Illuminate the inner corner of the eye and the eyebrow arch with a highlighter shade. To sculpt the eye, blend the more intense shade from the lash base towards the lid crease.
French Touch Absolu Lipstick
Based on the 1954 lipstick, ‘Grand Canal’, beautiful lipsticks with light texture.
- 314 Rose Candy, a vibrantly radiant fuchsia
- 316 Cotton Candy, irresistible bubblegum pink, shown above
- 318 Sweet Marmalade, a zesty tangerine orange
Color Fever Gloss
Enriched with plant based ingredients and a lavender fragrance, includes sweet almond oil, which leaves lips feeling soothed and hydrated. .
Aaron’s tip: apply Color Fever Gloss directly to lips to bestow them with a sensually glossy finish. The pink and tangerine shades will enhance natural colouring, while the almond green procures a frosted effect – or try it as a top coat over your lipstick.

I want the green lip gloss a lot!
I’ve never paid much attention to Lancome cosmetics before but I am so feeling the love for this collection! Can’t wait for it to be available! I’m eyeing the blush and nail polishes 🙂
I love how this blush looks like. I generally love their blush design though I always end up disappointed after I see them in person :/
I have the blush, the eyeshadows quad in ” romance ” and the lipstick in “soft marshmallow.” It’s really a gorgeous collection ! Inspiration drawned from a famous garden but I see roses, wedding, spring, youth and love in ” La Roseraie des Délices “.
What a beautiful comment, Dominique. You made me think about Spring! 🙂
