Lancome makeup bags are well-known and are usually offered free to accompany a certain amount of makeup that you purchase. However, most recently the iconic cosmetic brand has made innovative hybrid makeup bags; its line called ‘Nouvelle Vague by Lancôme' features bags that act as both makeup kits and evening purses.

The French fashion house commissioned three world renowned designers from Paris to design the kits. Yiqing Yin, Alexandre Vauthier and [Jacquemus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jacquemus-orange-sneaker) each designed their own very versions, but, of course, they still all share the commonality of the iconic rose-gold flower detail. They also all hold the label's most popular products perfectly ([L’Absolu Rouge](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lancme-x-louvre) lipstick, [Hypnôse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lancome-1) Star mascara and Hypnôse Palette eye shadow). Of course, you can also fit in other cosmetics of your liking.
