Cosmetics ads really can be preposterous. In this new spot for Lancôme, directed by the famed photographer Mario Testino, we see Kate Winslet rolling around blissfully in the nude under a white sheet in an all-white apartment with white roses sitting on a white table between two white chairs. She’s seen smiling, chuckling and possible moaning into a white phone, conversing with someone who is never revealed (probably a white person, though!). Then we finally get a splash of color, as she applies one of Lancôme’s new L’Absolu Nu lipsticks.
