Buy with confidence
Every vintage piece is individually checked and described, with any notable age-related wear clearly detailed and photographed. Orders are carefully packed and sent using tracked delivery, with international shipping available.
Long before make-up arrived in disposable plastic packaging, even the everyday ritual of powdering your face could feel rather luxurious.
This vintage Lancôme Maquifinish compact has a beautifully understated rectangular gold-tone case, its surface worked with a fine woven texture that catches the light without needing any further decoration.
Open it and the original mirror and powder compartment remain inside, together with its Lancôme Paris powder puff.
There are minor marks from previous handling and a little patina to the mirror, while the hinge and clasp remain secure.
It is the original puff that gives this one such charm. Suddenly it becomes more than beautiful vintage packaging — it feels like a personal object again, something once kept amongst perfume, lipstick and other treasured things.
A wonderfully elegant little survivor from the history of one of France’s great beauty houses.
