Lisa Eldridge lipsticks

[ChristalM]

Hi all,

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

[Titian06]

Very pretty, @makeitup305 ! 🥰

[makeitup305]

They’re so stunning @Titian06 !

[ChristalM]

Got my order finally!

I got Velvet Rain, Velvet enchantment and Velvet Sorcery. I also got two singles, tomorrow's party and Moonswirl.

Wearing Rain today. Wow this is a stunner. Brightens the face for sure. And wow those eyeshades are TINY. That will not be a repurchase for me ever.

That's good to know about the eyeshades, @ChristalM. That would really annoy me.

My order arrived last night. I picked up the Sorcery palette, Illusionism (Myth) and Turbulence (Vega) refills and the Sorcery lipstick

@Mochapj  So pretty!

[TraceyEB]

@Mochapj, gorgeous shades on you! I expected the lipstick to be darker and more brown, so this is a pleasant surprise!

[makeitup305]

Gorgeous shade on you @Mochapj !

[Sunnysmom]

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

[Mochapj]

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

[Sunnysmom]

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. 

[heartsmyface]

@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! 

[Mochapj]

@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.

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

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.

 

[blackkitty2014]

Did you order any @TraceyEB ? 

[allfeisty]

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.

[TraceyEB]

@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.

[Sunnysmom]

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

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. 

[Sunnysmom]

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?
