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

 

[Missmopps]

Oh Lisa now I’ve watched your video I want it all! I just love how authentic she is, without pretension or ego. Intelligence and passion just radiates through everything she does. I’m very tempted by the butterfly light.

At least she don’t take her customer’s money and then after 2 weeks say “sorry for the delay“ unlike another “guru”…

They are worlds apart, arent they

 

[Ponponpon]

I was surprised too. I feel like she's missing a trick by not having a staple navy and violet colour. But, lovely to see her experiment with non-day to say colours

I had massive irritation from a VB cream eyeshadow. Burning eyelids!

Same. I had the chiffon lid lustre and 50% of the time it burns

I’ve said this before but I was determined not to waste the pink soap blush and kept on using it from the tube until it was too leaky. I had an old Bobbi brown pot rouge (powder pink, great colour) that I had finished so I washed and sanitised the pan and compact and decanted all of the LE into that. It still going strong in pan form. I don’t know why it’s taken so long to repackage. I know Lisa is a perfectionist and I imagine the new packaging is more premium than the previous white plastic tube.

I also said on here I’d seen an old magazine from July 2025 with a preview of her new blushes which looked like the lip gloss packaging and a shade called “meeting the ex” which suggests that Lisa won’t be bringing back her original colour line up.

I couldn't find the blushes anywhere in London when I was there, sigh, so I will hold off! I'm on my flight home...

It's amazing they were able to shade match you from a photo! I went to Liberty for a shade match and she made me orange.

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.

Ah that could be why. I've used the smudger rather than a brush.

I should have mentioned LE has about 6 shades and VB has about 20, including dupes of all the LE shades, or at least the ones i am familiar with

I went to 2 Space NK* stores (spit!) this weekend purely because I wanted to compare. 2 skin tint shades. Neither stocked LE products.
Every time I see a Space NK store I go in so I can look at her shades but none ever stock it. It’s odd.

*disclaimer, I’d never buy from them due to the extravagant way they reward “influencers” but I wanted to see the LE colours in person before ordering from her site.

I am a T6 having managed to be colour matched a while ago. Have decided to go mad and try the VB one instead of buying LE. Am treating myself for my birthday. Got colour matched in Selfridges - would never dare spend that much without a match in person.

 

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

Used the Velatura yesterday for the first time and I love it - this might be my favourite product so far. It's subtle, but somehow with just a few swipes on lips and cheeks it made me look fresh and healthy. Have to resist more colours now!

I'm impressed too. I'm thinking of buying another one

 

[Silverback]

For anyone after a green eye pencil, I am a high end pencil girl through and through but I always go back to the Rimmel scandaleyes khaki one. It’s great!

THREE new RED lipsticks? Sorry, ignore me or whatever makes you happy if you can't bear to read nothing but worship for Lisa, but I think the brand has been in a deep creative slump for more than a year now and has lost its way.

Those highlighter pots also bring nothing new to the beauty market.

I love Lisa but totally agree.

If I was advising her brand, I'd tell her to focus on anything that perfects the look of skin. She seems to have a real strength there. Give me all the skin tints, concealers for each area of the face, blushes and the like, particularly in formulas which are geared to middle aged skin which is becoming a bit crinkly. Even a base moisturiser designed to go under makeup like embryolisse or magic skin. But all the amazing formulas and application techniques she loves.

Then have a rolling variation of limited edition colour products, geared to collectors. The Betty palette is a great example, so creative, unusual colours which are surprisingly wearable for everyday. The lilac pencil too. Amazing packaging (nb the outer cardboard box having a picture on it is not 'amazing packaging') which showcases her creativity and interpretation of trends.

Just seen a brow pencil on Vinted

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?

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)

 

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

Not sure if people have seen the email. The new launch is a cheek and lip tint stick

 

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

In case anyone needs to get one....

 

[50sGirl]

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.
