Byredo Thread

[LCResz]

I’ve really enjoyed Byredo perfumes for a while, but I recently picked up a couple of their lipsticks and wanted to share some swatches. If you are interested in Byredo products, please share your experiences and recommendations!
My collection of full-size Byredo. I’ll dig up my purse sprays eventually


The metal lipstick packaging is hefty and luxurious. The magnetic tops stay on securely.

The swatches: Top: Red & Blue, a satin finish with cool undertones; Bottom: Red Armchair, a matte finish with warm undertones. They go on smoothly and feel comfortable on the lips but I haven’t really taken them on a test drive yet. And yes, I’m obsessed with red lipsticks!

Friends, are you ready for this? 

[blackkitty2014]

It’s available now at Byredo direct @Sunnysmom @itsfi @ChristalM (not sure about Canada please forgive if it is not)

[ChristalM]

@blackkitty2014 thanks for the tag! I want to love this palette I really do but the dark blues tones are just not for me. I hope all you folks enjoy!

[Sunnysmom]

Thank you for the tag @blackkitty2014 ! 😘

I really like how this looks, and the packaging, but when I saw swatches and other photos I was disappointed. 

[itsfi]

@Samtian, there are pros and cons to being disappointed with this one. Did the shades look more muted in the swatches? Or patchy?

[Samtian]

@itsfi They looked darker and similar to each other, a few of them. 

[Sunnysmom]

Money saved for you @Samtian ! 🥰

[itsfi]

My Byredo person just let me know that Mineralscapes will be launching in the US in early May! @blackkitty2014 @Sunnysmom So there'll be a small break from the onslaught of sales this month before this one is scheduled to launch.

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you @itsfi . Onslaught is the correct word 😂🤣

[Sunnysmom]

Phew thank you @itsfi !

@blackkitty2014 @Sunnysmom - This palette is so pretty just like in the past.  I'll have to read the ingredients first, before I decide.  Nope, some of the colors contain carmine.

[Sunnysmom]

Oh shoot @Titian06 . Educate me please. I thought I’d read that some carmines are not bad. Is this not true? Did I made that up?! Lol Forgive my ignorance! 

[Titian06]

Carmine is made from the female cochineal bug.

[Sunnysmom]

Ok I looked some stuff up @Titian06 . I’ve wondered for a long time obviously with red lipstick too. Considered safe except for allergic issues ( not great) and coming from insects too. (Also not great!) Do you have allergic breakouts from it? Awful if so! Obviously I do not love the insect connection! Sounds like some use synthetic version. Makes good sense! 

[Titian06]

@Sunnysmom - I'm vegan.  I try to avoid products with animal ingredients.  I definitely don't want bug derived ingredients in my makeup...yuck!  😝

[Sunnysmom]

Oooh I see @Titian06 . Good for you. I should be , considering my love for animals. 🥹😔

[blackkitty2014]

Oh no! @Titian06 😥 

[itsfi]

@blackkitty2014, that's really pretty! 😍 I will live vicariously through you and @Sunnysmom and anyone else picking up this beauty. 

[blackkitty2014]

You might need it @itsfi  😘 Giant Byredo palette is way better than the quints 😘
