sbaze,

If you find the shade too light, applying more will not make it darker. Go back to the counter and try other shades as you may need one shade for winter and another for summer. Consider other foundations such as Rénergie Lift, Absolue and Photôgenic.

For an overall moisturizer, try High Résolution Refill 3-X and Nutrix Royal is good for dry skin. For lines around your lips, try Visionnaire and Génefique serums. Regarding eyes, try Absolue Eye Premium. You should be able to obtain samples at the counter.

I like using oils, especially at night, to combat wrinkles and oils can be used around eyes. Argan, Evening Primrose, Camellia Seed and Carrot (macerated) oils work well with anti-aging benefits.

Hope this helps.

sweety,

Lancome customer service should be able to help you with color matching.

Kuzzie, if you're referring to Absolue moisturizers, you can absolutely use Absolue with Genefique. Genefique is a serum so I apply directly to skin before any oils and moisturizers even though I know some who apply on top of (after) moisturizer. If you like Absolue, that line also has a serum. I personally like Visionnaire because it smooths my skin. Don't feel the need to limit yourself to one serum. You can combine serums all over or use different serums on different parts of your face, depending on your need. See what works best for you.

PucciGirl1, I strongly suggest stopping by a counter and sampling before purchasing. Assuming dark circles are around your eyes, try Genefique Eye as well as Bienfat Multi Vital Eye. For facial moisturizer, begin with Bienfait Aqua Vital (cream or lotion) or Bienefait Multi Vital (cream or lotion) since you don't indicate whether or not you need anything for wrinkles, firmness, etc. For serums, try both Genefique and Visionnaire to see which works best.
