Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Hi all,

Wondering if the Lisa Eldridge lipsticks are worth hunting down? Thoughts?

@ChristalM, Lisa currently has a restock of 3 summer lipsticks, last year's Velvet release, and the new Velvet lipsticks on her website right now. She is expecting a restock on some new shades, so you may want to keep a close eye on her site if those are the shades you're interested in. I am smitten with the matte version of her lipsticks, especially Velvet Jazz (red) and Skyscraper Rose (raspberry). I do like some other shades but those two stand out to me. The saturation levels of her matte lipsticks are second to none.

@ChristalM I'm sliiiiiiiightly obsessed, so I would say yes 🙂 The bullets themselves are beautiful to look at and the color saturation is bananas. I have the 3 reds from her first release and have been stalking (then restocked!) skyscraper rose when it came back during the most recent release of her new velvet colors. I was too slow for Velvet Myth, but I've got my eye on it when more stock comes back tomorrow.

I'm in the US and it's since it's free shipping, with the exchange rate, each lipstick comes to almost $34 USD. Quality is absolutely on par with, if not above, a high-end lipstick and since I'm already shelling out $36 - $45 for PMG, Chanel, etc, the Lisa Eldridge lipsticks feel more than worth it 🙂

I hate so say it but yes, it's absolutely worth it. All of them. I'm Canadian so I've been paying tax and handling fee on top of the list price but it is still worth it.

Her pink lucent lipsticks are incredible, right up my alley. I wore them all summer. I did not get the saturated pink lipsticks because it's too saturated for me. I'm more of a nudey-pink/rose mlbb type of person. AND I'm not even a fan of matte lipstick but I've been her reds all fall now. They are perfect reds and the lipstick case itself and the bullet are beautiful.

I have a lot of Chanel, Guerlain, Armani, Tom Ford, YSL and many other lipsticks and I can say it's actually nicer than most of them at basically the same price point.

Velvet Myth and Muse are back in stock this morning! I grabbed both around 11 am EST, looks like they're still in stock as of now (12:20 pm).

Side note: Lisa Eldridge mentioned in her email about the restock that if you've already got a previous order going, to email support AT lisaeldridge.com and they would combine today's and the previous order to avoid additional shipping charges. In her own words: "my team have been prepped and primed to make this process as smooth and seamless as possible for you."

@MissPuff was your shipping delayed because of the merging of the second order? Mine only got picked up by DHL yesterday 😞

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

MissPuff — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:16:23 GMT

@nche Awww, I'm so sorry! Mine did not seem to have a delay, both orders (or rather, i'm HOPING!) shipped on Monday for me under one tracking number, should be arriving today. I'm in the US though, looks like USPS is handling the order via Ohio.

@nche Which colors did you get? I have been dying with envy over Lisa's IG stories and everyone unboxing and using the new colors, kinda wish I had chipped in extra for overnight shipping...

Received my new Lisa E lips yesterday. While I love Myth I don’t feel same about Midnight or Decade sadly. 😕I have all the reds , Skyscraper Rose and Love of my Life and find them much better tho the new Myth is beautiful. Decade is a muddy brown sepia color I find and Midnight quite purple. Both go on very patchy, dry matte and even when smoothing them out look dry and blah. I was worried this would happen after first release and maybe it’s just my opinion as sounds like some of you guys love the new ones. Your lips must have more color to them or something but I’m quite sad with these. I did not get any of the other nudes. Not sure what I’ll do with them as I don’t think she takes returns tho I’m going to check. Sadly I’m not impressed except for Myth. 😢

@nche @TraceyEB @ChristalM @MissPuff @meganlisa @lipstick4soul @curlychiquita @blackkitty2014

Love to hear other’s thoughts. Imagine colors may look good on you @Mochapj so will be curious what you say also :).

Here are Myth, Midnight and Decade.

@ChristalM Oh wow! Canada does not play with those fees!

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Mochapj — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:35:47 GMT

@Sunnysmom Colourwise those look as expected to me but that’s a shame about the texture

My 6 should arrive today so I’ll let you know once I see them

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Mochapj — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:36:45 GMT

@nche @ChristalM I got all 6 and my import was $52 😒

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

ChristalM — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:42:37 GMT

@Mochapj Yeah most of my were DHl Processing fees. I hope you enjoy!

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

ChristalM — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:44:38 GMT

@Sunnysmom Hey. I am wearing Decade today and while I love the colour I agree that it is rather patchy on sadly 😞 This was my first experience with Lisa Eldridge and I am not sure I am loving the formula thus far sadly 😞

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

nche — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:50:18 GMT

@MissPuff I got Muse and the blue velvet collection (Beauty, Myth and Midnight). So the 3 new berry shades plus the one nude that I think I can pull off. I added muse in the second order..

Checked DHL and it said it is coming tomorrow...so fingers crossed it arrives.

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

MissPuff — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 16:04:20 GMT

@Sunnysmom That makes me a little sad! I actually didn't pick up Decade or Midnight specifically because I have very pigmented lips that tend to change the undertones of many lipsticks. Arm swatches never look quite like the lip swatches on me, cool tones pull warm and deep shades go EXTRA deep. I'm waiting on Myth, Muse, and Skyscraper Rose!
