I have lots of hospital appointments coming up and I think I might get something from Miss Eldridge. Does the Velatura balm dry down or does it leave a sticky residue? Will my hair stick to it?

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.
If it's the bright orange one she made a video about, it's not one I would buy. I think that would be even more unflattering than Audrey would be on me!

What are people's thoughts on the vb or le eyeliners?
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.

Interestingly though she just released a video on undereye creasing. Sometimes she teases a product with a video like that so I think even if it is another lip product (which is disappointing) a concealer is on the way.

I might! I've always been tempted by this one, and I regret not re-buying the Cinnabar palette before it was discontinued ...
I regret not getting Cinnabar. I was able to get the shimmer/metallics that were in that palette as singles, and i probably have ones similar to the others in one of my many palettes, but it's not the same!

That's why when Fawn came out i ordered immediately and same with Betty. I wasnt going to miss out twice!

This one is really really cool toned, so definitely not one for you by the sound of it.

Betty is so beautiful 😍
Could you do some swatches in daylight of all the liquid mattes you have next to each other please?
I wish they did that on the LE site.

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 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 ...)

What’s the dark coloured one? Not interested in lilac or pale shades, I want definition! lilac makes me look corpse like
It's an olive green colour with a golden shimmer

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.
Ooh let us know how the VB compares to the skin tint. I’m a T6 too but have been using the 6.5 as well

I’m so tempted by the guerlain lipstick compacts for pocket / top
Ups. Has anyone tried them? Wish Lisa would do a version
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!!

I have cinnamon bun and pomegranate glace. I now have rose madder and hellebore on the way.... they are great. When you use them as blush they don't feel sticky unless you really build it up, and when you use them on your lips they have lots of slip and feel like a proper slippy lip balm. They dont have the longevity something like rare beauty liquid blushes have but you wouldn't expect that from a glowy, dewy looking one anyway. And it's easy to pop in your handbag and reapply at lunch.

I have cinnamon bun and rose madder and love them both. I haven’t used them on my lips yet but love them on my cheeks. The RM I just use on my cheeks but the CB I used on bridge of nose, temples as well, it’s super natural and not too subkissed on me. I’m a T6/7 in her tint for skin tone reference
