Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Hi all,

 

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

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Gorgeous shade on you @Mochapj !

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Didn’t think lip shade would be like that @Mochapj , I like it a lot on you. Love the eye palette! 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Thanks @Sunnysmom 

 

It’s a little more pink and less brown than I was expecting and also a bit darker, but it still looks nice

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Yes exactly @Mochapj , still very good on you. I waited too long on Sorcery eye so now I must wait for restock ! I find Vega shades very wearable. 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@Mochapj  Those shades are so good how they all work together in separate combos!  It seems rare to be this impressed by a palette this size! 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@heartsmyface I think she did a really, really good job of curating the 6 shades in these palettes, they all look so versatile yet cohesive.

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Looking good @Mochapj 👍. I’m going back and forth about buying Sorcery until it’s OOS. I guess I can wait til next restock 😘

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Jennifer @allfeisty has posted a comprehensive guide to Lisa's new eyeshadow palettes. In particular, with Sorcery and Vega palettes, she shows how to place the eyeshadows so they are distinctive (and reduce over blending). The video is long but has lots of timestamps. Having used the palettes multiple times before posting, Jennifer's review is the most thorough I've seen on these palettes.

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Did you order any @TraceyEB ? 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Thanks so much!  I'll have the lipsticks next week.  I think the velvets are excellent if you like a soft, creamy, opulent opaque lip.

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@allfeisty, I didn't realize you were in BIC! The thoughtfulness and thoroughness of your review is much appreciated! I have (too) many of Lisa's velvets and love how creamy and opaque they are. Look forward to your thoughts on them. I've got my eye on The Dutchess.

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Some of the new lips. They’re super pretty! 🌸 Enchantment is slightly warm. @blackkitty2014 @tsavorite 

Edit- adding the Vega shadows that just arrived too! Updating to show in earlier, better lighting. @Ispend2much6

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

I tried the palette for the first time today and it was such a struggle!? Did you try them yet on the eyes @Sunnysmom . I kinda felt like they wouldn’t stick, then if i tried an unset base they wouldn’t blend. Either way ended up so patchy i can’t figure it out. I watched a video of babsbeauty and it seemed like she had a similar experience. I’m going to try cinnabar on it’s own tomorrow otherwise I don’t know.  I ended up wiping everything off and just applying dior copper velvet with LE Zora lurex. Editing to add the shimmers seemed fine but the mattes gave me issues. The lightest shade in Vega barely showed up on me and the one below it wasn’t that much darker. 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

I agree @aviscardi , it is a bit tricky . I used a few different cream shadows which helped the mattes seem less patchy. Those are my problem children. The other shimmers worked fine  but the light shades are definitely that and take multi swipes to show up more. I wish she had done more satins and shimmers and less mattes. Imho. I wonder how Sorcery performs. Wanted to try that one but maybe it’s ok I didn’t yet. I’ll keep working with these for now and with different brushes. Which brushes are you finding work the best for you? 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

TBH i think I’m going to return it. Probably should have only gotten one but I’ve loved everything from her thus far, even the liquid eyeshadows but I don’t think i like cream to powder.  I used rephr and WG brushes, i only have 1 synthetic but didn’t feel like it made a difference it kind of just fluffs off the brush. Even tho it stuck better to a shadow stick then it wouldn’t move to blend. I don’t need ND level of pigment lol but i don’t see the $ corresponding it should be effortless.
I loved moonswirl!? But dior beige mitzah is probably very similar anyway. I normally prefer mattes but i also couldn’t tell a difference between the seamless matte and velvets. At least next year when she releases the empty palette to make your own it can be all shimmer if you want lol @Sunnysmom 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@Sunnysmom do you notice a difference between the seamless matte and velvet? When i got

home i decided to try them again 1 palette on each eye. The look was ok but i seriously had to build and the payoff just wasn’t there. I wonder if others are having similar issues with the mattes?! I do think you have something to that, it needs to be a very light thin base in order to stick without getting stuck. Lol.  I don’t know,  i would try to make it work but for the price i don’t feel like i should have to.  The lurex was so easy that I’m surprised to have more difficulty with a powder product. Il have to watch more reviews just out of curiosity. Kackie ordered 2 and was sent 3 and seemed to really like them.  But honestly from what i saw it kinda seemed like it took forever for the color to build and went a little muddy. 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@aviscardi @Sunnysmom  I ordered 2 mattes: Violet Stone (velvet) and Smoke & Mirrors (seamless matte). I've played with them 3 times now and they're just okay at best. Bear in mind that Viseart's mattes are my gold standard. These 2 LE mattes don't perform as well as  Viseart's. They're not patchy on my lids, so that's a positive. They didn't blend into dust off my skin, and the velvet did blend more easily for me than the seamless matte. Not as easily as a Viseart matte though, or even a Natasha Denona creamy matte. Also, with or without primer, these 2 shades have to be built up a lot on my skin tone—which was very surprising with Smoke & Mirrors in particular. Getting a simple smoky eye with these 2 shades + the 3rd one I ordered (Tomorrow's Party, a non-sparkly metallic) took far more effort than it should've. 

 

Also, I'm disappointed by Tomorrow's Party. It's not awful. It's actually a kinda nice buffing/blending shade for me. But calling it "metallic' is a stretch. It's more of a satin, though I guess I can see the metallic finish via finger application—but even then, it's not much of a metallic punch. 

 

If these 3 shadows were priced much lower, I'd maybe feel less annoyed by their performance. I'm just glad I chose to buy 3 singles instead of a full palette. I realize it's a bit unfair to judge a brand's entire line of eyeshadows on just 3 shades/formulas, but I won't buy more of these. Lisa's liquid shadows are much better performers. 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@WinglessOne actually the best metallics I have found recently is PMG new holiday 5 pans. These are so incredible I actually bought backups in the most recent sale! I know they are more neutral tones though and I could be mistaken, but I don't believe you are in to neutral tones?

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@ChristalM  Yeah, I'm not normally a neutrals gal. But I did consider buying Pat's holiday bronze 5-pan for travel purposes. I talked myself out of it because I can probably dupe most (if not all) those shades in some of Pat's other palettes and some Natasha Denona palettes/singles, plus I have Pat's 6-pan MTHRSHP Metalmorphosis which is a good metallic travel buddy. I keep going back to the 5-pan online though, so at some point I'll probably buy it—if it's ever back in stock at Pat's site. (I'll be surprised if Sephora gets a restock.) 

 

I'm glad you're loving the 5-pans! I've rarely (if ever) had issues with Pat's metallics in terms of performance. She consistently knocks that outta the park. 

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

@WinglessOne Agreed! I bought two metalics. Tomorrows Party and Moonswirl. I too am disappointed in the term metallic. They are nice but not metallic and wow for the size and price is unbelievable. Will not be ordering more for sure.

Re: Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

Thanks for your good insights  @WinglessOne, I was gonna tag you on the liquids again and ask you if you had any new thoughts. . I still find Viseart better to work with if I want a matte and to be honest I’m much more of a satin person throw in some shimmer for fun. Toppers and sparkle just don’t work for me that easily. Boo. We shouldn’t have to work this hard on these which is a shame as colors look so good and wearable. I do appreciate the aesthetics of the sleek palette however and some of her lips are still among my favorites. Maybe we need her to do a 1 on 1 application with us and show us how to make them work. Lol.
