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!

‘Available at Byredo direct now @ChristalM @itsfi @curlychiquita @Sunnysmom . Ugh I want this but the timing is just bad since Sephora sale is just hours away

What a fun palette! These shades would be very good on you I bet @blackkitty2014 ! I will pass but look forward to your thoughts! 🤗🥰

These shades look very pretty @blackkitty2014 but this color family doesn’t get on very well with my eyes. 😔 Will be fun to hear about it and see looks and swatches from those who pick it up.

ChristalM · ‎04-13-2023

@blackkitty2014 Thanks! I see it is up on Holts too! I am heading out on vacation tomorrow but will definitely be getting it upon my return!

itsfi · ‎04-13-2023

Enjoy your vacation @ChristalM! Will look forward to hearing your thoughts on this after you get back!

New palette coming! The Remembrance I LOVED the previous version Flora Kalahari.

curlychiquita · ‎03-29-2023

It looks gorgeous, @ChristalM! I own a lot of these colors so I probably won't buy it but I definitely admire it.

blackkitty2014 · ‎03-29-2023

Wait new one? I’m so on it. I enjoy the Flora version and kick myself for not getting the first one. Thx for posting @ChristalM 🌹

Titian06 · ‎03-29-2023

Very pretty, @ChristalM ! 😍

itsfi · ‎03-29-2023

Ohhh, the packaging @ChristalM! 😍

State of Emotions Eye Palette arrived over the weekend, and I have had a little time to play with it.

The packaging is gorgeous; weighty but not bulky. It is much smaller than I anticipated, which was a relief!

Initial thoughts: My heart sank a little when I saw how dark the shades looked in person. Thankfully, they swatched much sheerer than they look. They are all wearable, neutrals that have at least some shimmer in them (including the far left shade).

Application is definitely proving to be a challenge. I read that using the fingertips was encouraged, and in the swatch photos, I did just that. Each is 3-4 swipes, so it took a little work to build up depth.

I have been using natural hair brushes to apply to my lids, and it seems so sheer that it can appear patchy. This is over primer, too. So maybe synthetic brushes would be better?

These colors are gorgeous on you, @eshoe ! 🥰 I understand about being uncomfortable with using your finger to apply. I have a palette from another brand with one shadow that only seems to apply decently with my finger. It's the only eyeshadow I apply like this...and it just feels wrong! 🤣

eshoe · ‎03-16-2023

Thank you, @Titian06! I know exactly what you mean. I have a couple of tube liquid shadows that I try to apply with my finger tip, but usually end up using a synthetic brush. It is just too hard to get into the corners without!

Other than that, I will apply a topper to the mid lid with my fingertip. This is just different, and that is ok😊

ChristalM · ‎03-16-2023

@eshoe Oh wow that is bizarre because to me they packed a punch! I just use a flat lay morphe eye brush for the lid and I had no issue getting a beautiful pigment. I am so sorry because it is a beauty for sure!

eshoe · ‎03-16-2023

Sometimes I just think I am an anomaly, @ChristalM 😂

I am definitely going to try a synthetic brush. I did my lazy look today so did not play around with it, but it is definitely worthy of additional experimentation. It is always interesting to see how differently some products work for people.

And even though it behaves in a way I did not expect, I am pleased as punch to give this little beauty a new home!

@eshoe Here is my application of the eye quad and the lipstick, Transported, from this collection. As well as the Kohl from this collection, a GEORGEOUS Burgandy! Forgive the odd photo...
