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! 

[Sunnysmom]

😌 ugh. Stock issues everywhere 

[aviscardi]

VB sale is back 20% off sitewide. Ends 12/14 midnight est

- was able to finally grab cocoa eyeliner and honey lid luster and of course was short shipping so grabbed the bronze eyeliner too lol 

[makeitup305]

@aviscardi @Sunnysmom it's killing me that the #2 bronzer was still not restocked. Gimme it!

[aviscardi]

ugh thats so frustrating, and only til tomorrow. I think i didn't get more than 10% off because i was too impatient to wait for a sale and wasn't sure how frequently she does them.

@makeitup305 @aviscardi @Sunnysmom, I love that VBB is extending / bringing back the 20% off; gives folks opportunity to pick up things with the discount as they come back in stock. 💖 I'm working on being content with all the VBB pretties that I already have. 😉😂 Hope the #2 #bronzer comes back in stock soon; it's one of the bronzers I've been rotating through more frequently. Let me know if you'd like me to post swatches.

[Sunnysmom]

Agree @itsfi , it’s a good sale for folks picking up OOS items they’ve been trying to get. Hope you guys can get it @makeitup305 !  I’m behaving also and need to really use what I have . Hope it sticks ! Thanks for your terrific pics! ☺️😘

[makeitup305]

@itsfi thank you! I saw your swatches below and it definitely looks like the perfect shade for me. I’ll keep waiting on it, it’s a sign that I’ve already spent too much this month lol.

[Sunnysmom]

Ha @makeitup305 , I know. 😂 I wanted it before too and I just put it on my wants list for some other time! I know @itsfi had great photos of them to compare which was super helpful as well! 🥰

[Sunnysmom]

Yay @aviscardi ! She’s really going at it end of the year! ☺️

Finally received my VB order today! Here are the promise swatches @Sunnysmom ! In order, Lid Lusters in Mink, Mirror, and Chiffon; Posh lipsticks in Girl and Pout; Cheeky Blush in Playground.

My bathroom lightingWith a little bit of flash, not all the way

I tried them all briefly and upon first impression Mink is probably my favorite as it’s a one and done shadow for me that still has a lot of sparkle. Mirror is the sparkliest and reminds me of glittering snow. If it were a tad warmer it would be perfect for me but it’s a true silver so I’ll probably use it more as a pop than all over the lid. Chiffon has almost a peachy undertone with makes it really flattering and perfect for all over the lid an everyday use. I’ve had Pout for about a month and it’s a flattering pink on me which is a shade I don’t go for very often. Girl might me by perfect nude- not MLBB but the perfect shade to pair with a lip liner or gloss that can either go warm or cool depending on what I pair it with. I haven’t tried the blush stick yet but the color is right up my alley and makes me want to get Knickers also to pair with the Pout lipstick.

i wore chiffon this weekend, very little fallout and i don't think it was visible anyway once i did my face makeup. its so pretty just enough sparkle for someone like myself that doesn't like all that glitter lol. I applied with my finger, i don't actually have any more shader brushes since my eyeshadow has been all matte for years now, but i heard they don't pickup with a brush anyway?

[makeitup305]

@aviscardi It’s more of a subtle shimmer than others. I managed to pick it up ok with the Rephr #21 but a finger works best. I was able to amplify it with some Inglot duraline. I think it would actually pop more on a darker skin tone than mine since it would have more contrast. 

[itsfi]

Gorgeous swatches @makeitup305! 😍 Love VBB.

[makeitup305]

Thanks @itsfi ! So far I’ve been really liking the products. What’s your favorite from the line?

[itsfi]

@makeitup305, I like her lipsticks 💄 a lot and have all but maybe a few of them. What I’ve been happily surprised by is her eyeliners. 😍 My eyelids tend to be super oily and there have only been a couple of liquid eyeliners that have worked for me so I haven’t gone for pencil eyeliners in a while. I bit the bullet and picked up one of her eyeliners when they launched - I now have 4, maybe 5, of them. 😂

[makeitup305]

@itsfi I haven’t tried her liners yet. I wear liner so rarely I talked myself out of it but maybe in the future 😉 I’m still waiting on her bronzer in #2 to be restocked.

[eshoe]

I knew I should have bought Minx, @makeitup305. It looks gorgeous and yes, lots of glitter there.

[makeitup305]

@eshoe Here are some more swatches. The first swatch is Hourglass Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow Reflect then Chiffon, Mink, and Mirror. Mirror is the shiniest, almost metallic. Chiffon is the most subdued, Reflect has some bigger specks of shimmer. Mink has the dark base so the shimmer brightens it up and shows up more. I do wish Chiffon was a little more sparkly, just because the tone of it is very close to my skintone and it doesn’t do much brightening or even give me the “wet”eye that I like.

Here are two looks I’ve done with them that I posted on the Makeup Challenge Thread
