THE VICTORIA BECKHAM BEAUTY THREAD

[Sunnysmom]

I know many of us love Victoria Beckham Beauty so I think we need a thread for her line. Would be lovely to see at Sephora!

Those are some gorgeous sparkles, @makeitup305 🤩 Thank you for the swatches!!!

I love your swatches, @makeitup305! They definitely make me more interested in the Lid Lusters.

[makeitup305]

@curlychiquita so far I like them but I don't think they're any better than the Hourglass, at least the shades I've tried. I would say that Mirror and Mink are definitely more buildable and have more base pigment than Chiffon. Chiffon so far is pretty but because it's so close to my skintone it doesn't give any contrast so it's kind of washes me out if I wear it alone. I need to pair it with something to give my eye depth. Mink is my favorite so far, but if you need something for a holiday party, pick Mirror.

@makeitup305 thanks for the feedback! I was thinking of Mink in particular. I see the site is 20% off again. I may pick something up although I'm pretty shopped out this month.

@curlychiquita Same. I was hoping for the bronzer in #2 but I don’t think that’s to be. Idk how often she does sales or get a discount through Cult Beauty, but since they’re permanent products, there’s no rush.

[Sunnysmom]

Oh @makeitup305 they all look amazing for you! Minx is really nice, definitely wearable and Mirror will be so fun for that pop as you said. 
You’ll have so much fun with all of these I bet! Doesn’t the blush feel like velvet?! And it lasts too. Very cool. My grey silver liner just came so I will have to swatch it tomorrow maybe. It looks sort of like a deeper version of Mirror. Wasn’t going to get it but that crazy 20% 😂. 
Enjoy your new goodies! 🥰

[makeitup305]

thanks @Sunnysmom ! I need to play with the blush more, as I've only used it once or twice so far. The color is super pretty and definitely makes me want more.

Chiffon, my first Lid Lustre!

Bottom is single swatch, top is two.

Oh this is gorgeous @eshoe. Enjoy!

[eshoe]

I wear it almost every day, @blackkitty2014, so I think it would be fair to say that I am enjoying it☺️ It is different in a way than what I had pictured in my mind, but I am enjoying the whole process of working with it. 

[makeitup305]

@eshoe I love it. I just got mine and it’s so pretty!

[eshoe]

@makeitup305 yay! Are all of the lid lusters this consistency? It is slightly more of a shimmer than a glitter, which is fine, I was just expecting more glitter (like the Hourglass Scattered Lights). It is beautiful, though!

[makeitup305]

@eshoe I think Mirror and Minx are different from Chiffon and even from each other. I think Chiffon has more fine pearl and a smoother shimmer finish and is not as glittery as the other 2. I’ll try and swatch them in natural light and include my Hourglass Scattered Light to compare.

@eshoe Oh wow that is stunning!

[eshoe]

It sure is, @Samtian 🤩

[CookieGirl1]

Oooh, love the shine @eshoe.

[eshoe]

It is a little foil-like, @CookieGirl1 - I love it!

[Sunnysmom]

Sooo pretty and sparkley @eshoe ! I love that look! 

[eshoe]

Ooooh you and me both, @Sunnysmom. Always need a hint of shimmer 😄 

[makeitup305]

ugh so pretty @eshoe !

[eshoe]

Thank you, @makeitup305 - it looks like you have one on the way, too!
