We already told you about iconic “Pretty Woman” Julia Roberts’ collaboration with beauty giant Lancôme. Now, the images from her first campaign for the brand have finally been revealed. She’s looking fresh as ever, with sunny blond locks and her signature full lips, but our eyes were immediately drawn to, well, her eyes. Which comes as no surprise, considering that the ads are designed to sell the new Definicils Precious Cells Mascara. The product features stem cell technology (from Swiss apple extract–nothing controversial!) that claims to grow lashes longer while adding a heavy dose of volume to boot, and it’s set to debut in department stores later this summer. Will you be snagging the $29 “miracle mascara?” Tell us in the comments below!

I think Julia looks amazing with out being soooooooooo airbrushed what a waste of a pretty women!

I have used Definicils for quite a while and I just love the product. It literally makes my skimpy lashes look great. The $30 price tag, however, does make it prohibitive in the lean months, but I buy it as often as I can.

-Cheryl Kent on June 15th, 2010

Wow, Chic has some very wierd lips!

-Lisa on June 15th, 2010

Massive airbrushing.

-Nicole on June 15th, 2010

I am a professional makeup artist with 22 years of experience and this photo is seriously retouched. There is nothing real-looking about her here. How can you say she is fresh looking? Really now. She looks as plastic as plastic can be.
you do Julia and her makeup artist ( if you guys actually hired one) a great disservice. She is a beautiful woman, but not in this campaign.

-Elene on June 16th, 2010

Julia is great and I love Lancome. However this is not a very flattering photo. It looks like it’s shot at a funny angle.

-Mary on June 16th, 2010

Wow…Lancome shouldn’t have air-brushed her so much. Because of doing so now I’m turned off to buy their product…And I’m a loyal customer of theirs too! :-( ((

-Elizabeth on June 16th, 2010

Why would they airbrush her so? And her lips look ridiculous. I would rather see her 40 something face. We all know products are not miracles (but yes, that mascara is worth the price!)

-Elle on June 16th, 2010

she looks fixed up and her lips are wormy looking.

-adrienne on June 16th, 2010

I think Julia looks gorgeous and it actually doesn’t look different at all from the video she did of the photoshoot. She has REALLY clear and basically perfect skin. Look at this:

-DK on June 16th, 2010

she looks like a mannequin. why so much airbrushing? we all know she’s not 24 anymore.

-zoe on June 16th, 2010

Ditto to the above remarks re airbrush. She has pretty eyes and pretty teeth. That’s all. Her face is too narrow and her hair swallows it. Her lips are not pretty at all, they’re missing the little curve on her upper lip. It’s amazing how the media makes us believe these women on their cover pages are beautiful. The standard of beauty has been redefined by brown skin Latinas. That’s why they’re racking up most of the Miss Universe pageants to the point where Nordic countries are sending olive toned brunettes!!! Wake up America. Signed: Another wise Latina

-Nancy on June 16th, 2010

So sick of people ragging on with their politics when the only question here is if you would buy the mascara. Get over it.

-eassa on June 16th, 2010

ok, ladies, what is it, are you that shallow, I think she looks great, a huband and 2 or 3 kids later. I wish the heck I looked that good. Why is it so easy to make a bad comment instead of a good comment, this is what the world is coming to this days……no one know how to say nice things now……..You Look Great Julia, I wish I looked as GOOD!

-donna on June 16th, 2010

$29 for mascara — surely you jest. I use Maybelline XXL thickening mascara which costs under $10 at CVS. Terrific product, great results.

Of course, Julia Roberts needs to be paid!!

-Liz on June 18th, 2010

I’d like to know wjat earrings she is wearing. Love them!

-Phyllis on July 16th, 2010

I think she looks amazing and would love to know what products they used on her! Something about her is reminding me of Olivia Palermo, anyone else see it?

You are so right, I emailed Cathy Waterman and they confirmed they are from them…. thanks

-Sally Gardner on January 19th, 2011

The Cathy Waterman earrings Julia Roberts is wearing in the Lancome ad are very similar to Michael C. Fina earrings. Check his web site. They are more affordable.

In Britain this ad has been banned because of the airbrushing and also Christie Turlington’s ad for another company has been banned for the same reason.
