Lancome Secret de Vie Set

How cool are these fabulous spherical containers? I love the futuristic look but I’m not feeling as optimistic about the futuristic price tag.

Inside these ultramodern containers is Lancôme Secret de Vie creams which claim to “stimulate rebirth with Extrait de Vie, richly infused with six powerful ingredients.” I’m curious to see how these compete against other offerings in their price category – in my mind, they’ve already swept the competition in terms of eye-catching packaging!

Each set contains 1.7 ounces each of Secret de Vie Cream and Secret de Vie Night for $345 from Nordstrom.

Laura Mercier Face Polish

We all know the benefits of regular exfoliating, but nothing makes my skin glow more than Laura Mercier Face Polish.

While it is gentle enough to use everyday, my skin prefers the once-every-three-days regimen, which makes this 3.5 oz tube last FOREVER (a little goes a long way, girls.)

Laura Mercier Face Polish is available online at LauraMercier.com for $28.

A Scent by Issey Miyake

I have yet to try this new fragrance by Issey Miyake called A Scent, but I’m a sucker for anything jasmine.

This woodsy floral scent has notes of jasmine, hyacinth and verbena to create “an air as luminous and green as nature herself.” And with a name as simple as “A Scent” this has to be good, right?

A Scent by Issey Miyake Eau de Toilette spray is available online at Nordstrom for $65-89.

Giorgio Armani Lip Wax Set

Giorgio Armani’s new cosmetic collection is defined by its silky, fluid textures, so I am extremely intrigued by the idea of “Lip Wax.”

The luxurious formula is said to glide on lips, leaving rich, beautiful color that’s as weightless as it is smooth. The set includes 3 shades, all packaged in a zip case complete with a mirror.

Giorgio Armani Lip Wax Set is available from Neiman Marcus for $59.
