Lisa Eldridge 💄 #2

[Ponponpon]

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.

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

My LE ones are softer and seem to travel more than my VB ones. I like both though

I don’t know why it’s taken Lisa so long to release new shades in the eye pencil. She needs a navy, a plum/bordeaux and a deep blackened purple in my opinion

Those are the shades i got from VB because I got sick of waiting for new ones from Lisa- fig and bordeux

Is anyone buying anything in the Sephora sale? Obviously not LE as she’s not on there.
I’m tempted by a Pat McGrath palette but I’ve never tried any of her products before.

I’ve a palette and it’s amazing

 

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

No. I'm resisting the sephora sale. Luckily by the time temptation won, the stuff I wanted was OOS

Was in London yesterday and went to the counter in Liberty and Selfridges. All but one of the things I wanted was sold out. I was told there were stock issues and one of them the Mist is not gonna to be in stock until 2026. I know I can buy a couple of the products online but I always think the brand miss out on sales because of this as I then decided to try other products particularly as I was in store and it is easier to do so. However VB was also OOO on some products as well so it is not just LE. Coming up to Christmas it is not a good look to be low on or out of stock.

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.

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 was colour matched a 4 and a 5 in VB. they were almost identical. I have gone for the 5 - will report back.

I’d love to try the VB one too. I’m a LE T3 but think I’d be able to wear a T1 in winter. I wanted to see how they compared.
I also wanted to see the new Rouge Experience in Damask.

I wonder if Lisa is aware that her range is in so few Space NK shops.

I don’t think we will see the brow pencil till Jan/feb now

 

[Ponponpon]

Did anyone watch the Emerald Masterclass last night? She's working on a corrector too

I watched Charlotte Holdcroft’s “best make up products in each category” last night.
The LE brow pencil was there. She received it in PR months ago and said it was great.
So it doesn't look like the problem is with the product itself but perhaps with getting the stock, etc.

Nooo I missed it! I hope I can see it on her YouTube

I only found out about it just before it was due to start, so registration had closed. Gutted!

I went into email inbox and found the email from 14th Nov giving registration details so that'll teach me to only rely on the notifications about emails and not checking the rest
