Nooo I missed it! I hope I can see it on her YouTube
I'm not sure she uploads the emerald videos online.


Re Corrector Goss - honestly, she didn't talk about it much. All she said was the cream ones (like Bobbi Brown little pots) don't work on her as her eye area is oily. She acknowledged the one she used in the live was hers, and referred to it being a salmon pink undertone.


I missed the email too. 😢



How is everyone getting on with their VB products?
I've bought the colour wash blushes because of this thread. Not yet delivered though

Also manifesting the most perfect shade of green. Night forest is definitely not it!
Ooh why not? I haven’t tried it myself but normally Lisa’s colour choices are on point. I have the pencil in black, ground coffee and burnt umber.

I know Lisa is a perfectionist and curates her colours really well but I don’t know why a navy and burgundy/blackberry were not included in the core collection initial launch rather than the the goldy colour which is lovely but to me, is more of an occasional colour rather than everyday staple.

I hope also she will include a sharpener for this pencil like she has with the sculpting lip pencil.

It seems to be pretty popular as my order is delayed. Just when I need pepping up with a lipstick!

If you use the loyalty points for a discount, does the GWP only kick in with the amount you pay or is it the value of purchase before applying the discount? I hope that makes sense.
Asking for a friend…
Hmm I’m not sure to be honest. I’ve stacked the 5% discounts for 300 points each to a maximum of 25% (or 20 can’t remember as it was a while ago) my points expire in July and I was hoping to use them towards the brow pencil

I'm no longer an Emerald either so would love to see it. I probably would not purchase anything til I'm back in the UK which won't be until January. I don't NEED stuff but as I love Lisa's tint and foundation I'm tempted by the concealer. tbh the one I use most is a brightening concealer from Sephora for my undereyes cause God I need it and it doesn't sink into the lines.

Never heard of Sarah Creal - looks appealing, I'm newly 40 and have pretty good skin still just undereye wrinkles galore from a lower bleph removing undereye skin so it's like an accordion. Looks better than it did but I've never had smooth undereyes! I've got deep-set eyes as well so it makes it look worse (I've considered filler but it scares me).
can I ask how you found your lower bleph and how much it was?

my face shape just has hallows, always has. A cosmetic dr yesterday asked me if I’d had a massive weight loss but nah. Was going to go polynucleotides but £1100 for two sets

I’m going to the Marilyn movies event where I can redeem my £50 ticket on purchases so I may well go for the new mascara and the liquid silk although not sure on which colour to go for.

Night forest (at least my one) was just about black. I was expecting a dark forest green like green velvet. But it's nearly black with a sheen of green. I posted a swatch of it when I got it because I wasnt sure I'd been sent the right colour.

I timed my last purchase (as a bit of a st9cknup) to keep my Emerald status until next summer but am away for that event. I have the pencil which is great but will be getting this too for less pinpointy coverage.

Thanks for this :).Yes!! Skincare deffo sinks in... the sticky primer and cyclopentosiloxane pore smoothing primers do sit on top of the skin a bit but that's what they're meant to do I suppose. I need to do a process of elimination test like do skincare and my setting spray and see how that fares. Next day do primer but no setting spray etc etc
That's sensible. Have you got a home day soon where you could try different parts of your face with different techniques? Maybe that's a me thing 🤣

Be suss I'm an impatient Lisa magpie, I went to Reddit. They're saying the picture is Marilyn Monroe and calling back to her original lipstick Lisa owns in her vintage collection. She posted a video a out recreating Marilyn's shade. So, probably a lipstick in a shade I just wouldn't wear. Much like Audrey.

I’m still patiently waiting for these blushes.

worried now that if she ever did release them they will be very warm toned/orange.

I've come on to say mine have just been delivered. I agree they're lush and a great summer piece; they feel very light weight.

I must admit I feel a little cheated by the amount. Whilst the gram weight is displayed clearly, it feels the packaging is unnecessarily large. The tube is c 10cm, and the ullet is 2.2cm.

With Rogue Experience, Lisa made such a thing about it being more environmentally friendly to recycle the refills and they had to be fully metal. Now she's got a huge plastic tube.
Which colours did you order?

Han Beauty and Charlotte Holdcroft have both put videos up.
Hannah has all the colours.

I think I made the right choice with Rose Madder. Mine hasn't been dispatched yet.
