I'm not sure how necessary a corrector would be for everyone, depending on your area of concern - obviously sales people are usually advised to upsell wherever there's scope for it. I'm in my mid 60s, struggle with poor sleep, very fair quite translucent skin so I have this thing going on where directly underneath my eye is very pale then along the lower orbital bone there's deep bluey black shadow - it's that blueness which particularly benefited from being neutralised with the peach corrector. For generalised redness/uneven skin tone around the nose/"muzzle" area it wasn't needed.
I have the same problem.
I have had dark circles under my eyes since a teenager. Like you, it’s the way the muscle lies under my eyes which creates a dark shadow so I know it will never go.

Sarah Creal has just launched in the UK and I’ve heard good things about her concealer. I would’ve bought that but I shall try Lisa’s first to add to my ever growing concealer collection! I’d have preferred a matte over a luminous but hopefully I can set it with light powder.

I‘m no longer an Emerald, so I will have to wait until tomorrow.

Any Emeralds buying today?

How is everyone getting on with the concealer?
Love it. I actively avoided concealer before because it turned my under eyes into a dry, wrinkly, cakey mess however sparingly I applied it. I might have used a bit on my face but generally just relied on my foundation to lessen redness etc.

I use Lisa's concealer ALL THE TIME! I have two 6 and 8. 6 is my undereye colour and 8 the rest of my face - I'm a 6.5 in skin tint.

ETA the only time it settled into nasal-labio folds was when I was generous in application and checked my face a couple of hours later. Once I learnt how much to use, I've not had a problem

I didn't know that was possible! does the website accept multiple codes then? (not tempted by this new release - but for future reference as I have loads of points and don't buy that often - esp as SpaceNK has LE at 20% off at the moment ...)
I'm sure you can use five codes for a single purchase.
I'm struggling, telling myself I don't need any blush or lipstick but I do have lots of points to use. The Pomegranate Glaze is calling my name. I had a Josie Maran blush years ago which looked similar and really lifted my complexion. I wonder how it lasts as a blush. I look like the walking dead with no colour on my cheeks.

You guys don’t disappoint - was about to share the sceeenshot from my mailbox to see there is already a discussion. 😍

And while I love many of Lisa’s lip products (Je ne sais quoi is the colour that is was just “meant” to be for me), but, yeah, I had different hopes (concealer)

Purchased the Kitten Brow. Excited. If it lives up to the claims it will be a holy grail product for me and my wild crazy brows 🤞
I wondered why I didn’t get an email as I was an Emerald. I’ve been demoted to Amethyst. 😢

I was expecting them to be her old blushes but it’s a new reformulation and shades. Hate the name ‘Meeting My Ex’ (reminds me of C Tilbury) and I can’t use dewy or balmy products on my face as they end up looking terrible. Going to be a miss for me!
Don’t understand why she’s having such problems with packaging for her old formula, sounds like she’s trying to reinvent the wheel when so many different packaging already exists which would have housed them safely and stylishly.

Oo have you tried much else of Victoria Beckham’s cosmetics? I’ve heard glowing reports.
I tried one of her shimmery eye shadow pot things and it made my eyelids burn! I complained to both Selfridges and VB but nobody cared!

Charlotte Holdcroft really raves about the Chanel concealer but as she is a top Lisa fan I wonder if Lisa’s offering will knock Chanel off the top spot?

I’m really surprised that’s the packaging she’s gone for. Usually Lisa’s products are more elevated in design than this. To me it feels a bit like a cheap cash grab but I get this will be an unpopular view haha

Also wonder why Lisa has yet to add navy to her eye pencils. I purchase VB's navy which is quite nice, yet the price is a bit much. Guilty of buying so much of Lisa's products, many of which I hardly use. Yet I continue to buy things I really don't need. She's that incredible influencing imo.
Are you me? 😆 I’m enjoying the VB navy noir but I baulk at the price of it to be honest. The new Marilyn release has made me realise I need to start using my elevated glow highlighter which is at the back of my makeup drawer. I guess because I’m a combination skin and after spf thus time of year I’m glowy enough that I don’t think about adding another glow product, I’ll try it on my eyelids and cheekbones for a special party this weekend and report back. I’m tempted by the butterfly glow Marilyn but I’ve had to reign myself in and be firm in not buying any more makeup.

I usually have sensitive eyes and I'm ok. But I'm also ok with her liquid eyeshadows so that might not be much use to you!
Same! Well, I’ve had a problem (swollen eyes) with liquid lurex with metallic finish (Titanic, Angelica) but I’m ok with Eirene and Phoebe which are Liquid Silk. I haven’t figured out why though.

ETA: sorry; I wanted to reply to @Silverback

I have ordered Amanghasett and Strawberry Blonde. I do love the Velveteen formula.

I am tempted by Mimi, and I need a new mascara, which is pretty much all the self-enablement required to order

Please report back on price, etc.
Concealer is £31, brush is £38. Can buy both as a bundle for £62 saving a few pennies.

There's also a new Indigo Denim make up pouch, free on orders over £90 or £25 to buy in isolation.

There's a shade match based off your LE foundation, or skin tint. They recommend a concealer shade and a corrector shade. FWIW, I'm a 7 in foundation, 6 is my concealer shade, 5 is my corrector shade.

I thought the info still showed even when not signed in, but you had to sign in to buy early?


If anyone can see a video can you link it for us non emeralds? I lost my status a while back as I’ve been buying from Space NK/liberty which is annoying x
Unless I've continually missed it, videos are only launched at full launch, not for Emeralds. It's odd, but others here have commented before too.
