Multi-Tasking Glamour Made Easy with Lancome Ombre-Eclair

Lancome Ombre Eclair (Pictured in Silver) on Nordstrom.com

Lancôme Ombre-Eclairicon is one of those products that I like to think of as “resort” makeup — a portable multi-tasker that easily creates the look of subtle, laid-back glamour.

I recently had the opportunity to try this jumbo eyeshadow pencil (it’s more of a crayon) in “Sweet Quartz,” a shimmery, beigy-pink shade that will complement a generous range of skin tones.

Though I wish Ombre-Eclair was longer-wearing, I still really liked the way this creamy, smooth-blending shadow created a super-pretty glow.

This product also scores major bonus points as a multi-tasker that looks fantastic when used on the lips.

After applying a clear lipgloss or lip balm, use your finger to pat some of this shimmery shade onto the center of your smoocher. It’s gives just the right dose of ooh-la-la while lazing around and sipping your morning late afternoon cocktail ;)

Toss it in the travel tote before jetting off to your tropical winter get-away. Still stuck in a winter wonderland? Just keep this multi-tasker handy for a low-fuss weekend beauty look…and don’t forget to think warm thoughts ;)

Lancôme Ombre-Eclairicon is available for $20 from Nordstrom.icon

    I’ve used these eye pencils before and they’re not my favorite because they tend to crease.

    Maybe I’ll give them another try and try using it with a lip gloss as you suggested (including the tropical cocktail! lol)
