Kate Winslet has been the face of <a href="http://www.lancome.ca/_en/_ca/index.aspx" target="_blank">Lancôme</a> since 2007, bringing her breed of "everywoman" glamour to the fragrance Trésor and the Rénergie skincare line. Now, she's collaborated with the lipstick department on a limited-edition collection called <a href="http://www.lancome.ca/_en/_ca/catalog/product.aspx?prdcode=253039&amp;CategoryCode=AXEMakeup^F1_Lips^F2_Lip_Lipsticks&amp;vname=name&amp;var=&amp;&amp;" target="_blank">Lancôme L'Absolu Rouge Smoky Roses</a>. (Okay, I have no idea if <a href="http://www.lancome.ca/_en/_ca/index.aspx" target="_blank">Lancôme</a> actually has a lipstick department. But wouldn't it be awesome if they did? I'm picturing Santa's Elves.)

Anyway! There are six shades in total, but Kate hand-picked three of them (the "star" shades):
<ul>
	<li>Smoky Rouge (the red one in the pic below),</li>
	<li>Rose Essencea (#2, I believe) and</li>
	<li>Rustique (I *think* it's the 3rd one in)</li>
</ul>

Fun fact: The packaging is based on <a href="http://www.lancome.ca/_en/_ca/index.aspx" target="_blank">Lancôme</a> founder Armand Petitjean's famous Clef de Coquette lipstick case, first created in 1951.

<em>Priced at $35 each and available now at <a href="http://www.lancome.ca/_en/_ca/catalog/product.aspx?prdcode=253039&amp;CategoryCode=AXEMakeup^F1_Lips^F2_Lip_Lipsticks&amp;vname=name&amp;var=&amp;&amp;" target="_blank">Lancome.ca</a> and all Lancôme counters across Canada.</em>
