@zcfthc5 How about listing it on eBay with a title like silverback palette then no one else will be able to find it? Silverback can then buy it for a nominal price?

I have one of the old Guerlain refillable lipsticks and cases and hardly used it as the lipstick wasn’t fantastic, and the case was just too heavy.

It was my most-regretted makeup purchase for a while, because of how expensive it was and how little I used it.
I got obsessed with "collecting" those back in the day - they are ridiculously heavy.

I'm safe from Velatura mania though - anything shiny just looks so wrong on me.

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
Yeah i wasn't a fan of the christmas packaging either. But at least it's a gorgeous pic of Marilyn.

The latest launches aren’t really interesting me which is good as it saves my wallet, none of the silks are colours I’d want to wear. I’m really itching for new product and innovation. The brow pencil!! Even a navy seamless eye pencil would be good! Under eye concealer. I’m still using up the pink soap enlivening blush that I decanted into a sterilised empty Bobbi Brown pot rouge container. So can wait a while longer for her new blushes. Lavender looks truly awful on me so as pretty as the Betty palette is, I’m absolutely not tempted.

My main criticism is things get teased and then never make it to market. How long have we been waiting for the brow pencil that was pulled a couple of days before release? And the blushes were supposed to be rereleased months ago.
I wonder what is going on behind the scenes for this to be happening. Lisa has a lot of goodwill but making promises she can’t keep will only be put up with for so long. I know there were some changes on Companies House and new companies being involved (but all related to her such as Leb Holdings Limited, Betty and Friends). But a lot of the info on companies house goes over my head so it might not even mean anything significant!

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 think she is bringing back (at least some of) the original shades ... I think I saw in a reply to a comment on Insta that Pink Soap will be coming back. I LOVED Dante's Dream, had it decanted into a tiny pot after the tube burst and used every particle. I'm also longing for a creamy concealer ... I'm eyeing up the new Charlotte Tilbury one.

The new products are showing online - but not available to buy yet.

I like the look of the shade Rose Madder and Hellebore Heaven .
Ohh thank you! I LOVE the look of Rose Madder too! Not that I need another blush....but have been waiting so long for Lisa's ones that I'm sure I'll find a way to justify a purchase to myself 🤣

I have both and they are pretty much the same for me. Both as creamy and soft as each other. If anything i think LE ones blend a bit better as VB ones tend to fade when I blend them and have to reapply, but that could be as I have dark shades in LE and medium ones in VB. Neither smudges through the day or travels so I'm happy with either.

I used to only use Urban Decay ones and both LE and VB match them.
I would tend to agree with you.

My only comment would be I hate the smudger in the VB liners, it lifts so much product. If you blend with a brush the pigment is more concentrated.

There's a wider shade range in VB, which might be worth considering, depending on your personal preference and style.

Hildun and Zoeva are both decent, less spenny options, but the longevity isn't as good as either VB or LE IMHO.

I have been on Tattle for a few years now but Today learned there is a Lisa thread! I love Lisa's work and own a lot of her stuff. Far too many lipsticks which I'm trying to sell off on FB... but I'm tempted by the pink lipstick. I have Medici in the refillable for winter, and wanted Audrey to work on me but it REALLY doesn't. A decent pink for summer would be nice. I wear Velveteen Rain which is lovely but a bit bright for every day.

I love all the shades ... I've gone for Cinnamon Bun first to see if the formula stays on my oily skin. Rose Madder next if it does ....

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.
I have them all because I'm a magpie. I groan at myself

Guerlain came out with this idea many years ago and then they changed the packaging so old lipsticks and cases wouldn’t work with new lipsticks and cases. There’s a great Chloe Morello video where she learns about this in real time and she displays the absolute frustration and disappointment of the issue haha. So for me that would be a worry, if they have changed before they will likely change again. Also they are quite light and feel cheap even though they don’t look it. I remember on an old episode of Fat Mascara their guest said for us to become more environmentally sustainable with makeup we need to move past this idea that luxe = heavy but I’m sorry, I just can’t!

Also did anyone else see Lisa has stepped down from Lancôme as Global Creative Director. I did find her appointment a bit odd after awhile because she used to regularly appear on their social media, especially their YouTube channel and she would promote a lot of the products she made with them (that infamous highlighter flower) but for a good while she hasn’t visibly been associated with them so much so I asked her team if she still was a few years ago (curiosity gets the better of me again!) I also found it a shame they didn’t seem to update their main collections and Lisa worked (seemingly) on new ideas or limited editions. I’m still gutted they got rid of the Juicy Shakers because they were amazing! Mine still work and don’t smell off or have mould on. Justice for them!!

Well the liquid lurex eyeshadow I got for Christmas was a bust. The sales assistant in liberty gave me the wrong one! It’s a bronzey shade and looks dreadful against my pale skin. If anyone wants it gimme a shout!
Email customer service and hopefully they’ll send u the right one. One time Mac did that to me and I was suprised how chill they were about refund / swap based on human error
