Lancome Holiday 2011 Color Collection by Kate Winslet

You can consider yourself extremely lucky if you are healthy, have food on your table every day, have clothes to wear and are not freezing. Sometimes we take these simple things for granted, not thinking that there are many people in the world who don't enjoy any of these things. Today we would like to draw your attention to a neural disorder called autism and tell you how you can make a difference.

A year ago, the famous actress Kate Winslet was asked to narrate the Icelandic documentary about a young autistic boy - “A Mother’s Courage: Talking Back to Autism”. The film touched Kate's heart so much that she decided to found the Golden Hat Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to eliminating barriers for people with autism around the world, and creating an environment that holds these individuals as intellectually capable. The mission of the foundation is the establishment of innovative living communities that offer people with autism the opportunity to learn to communicate effectively, receive an education, job training and enjoy recreational activities, all within a supportive social network.

Kate is always searching for new ways to raise money for Golden Hat so now she has teamed up with Lancome to create an exclusive Holiday 2011 Color Collection that brings to life the spirit and message of the foundation. The collection includes 3 products for your face, lips and nails and is already available at Lancome web site. Some of the proceeds from these products go directly to the Golden Hat Foundation. 

Lancôme Holiday 2011 Color Collection by Kate Winslet Le Vernis is the most technically-advanced nail polish that stays put for up to seven days. The cutting edge, soft-sculpt brush provides perfectly even coverage in one coat with no clumps, while Shield Plasticizers keep nails flexible, shiny and more resistant to shock and abrasion. Comes in 5 vibrant shades.

Lancôme Holiday 2011 Color Collection by Kate Winslet L’Absolu Rouge is a deeply replenishing lipstick that provides rich, satiny color. The formula is enriched with moisture-boosting Pro-Xylane™, that helps your lips to stay moist, soft and comfortable for up to 8 hours. Antioxidant-rich Vitamin E and SPF 12 help keep lips safe from environmental aggressors, so they look and feel healthy day after day. The stay true color won’t feather, flake or fade. Comes in 5 shades housed in a limited-edition design of the Golden Hat symbol and Kate Winslet's signature in gold.

Lancôme Holiday 2011 Color Collection by Kate Winslet Golden Hat Illuminating Smooth Powder is an all-over highlighting powder which gives your face a gorgeous glow. It features two shades: a light sparkling pink which provides a soft and delicate glow and a golden shade which enhances the complexion with touches of gold. The powder is an original interpretation of the Golden Hat, symbol of Ambassadress Kate Winslet's non-profit Golden Hat Foundation. The limited-edition black packaging features Kate Winslet's personal signature.
