Lisa Eldridge 💄

[Lmmmx]

Lisa has been awarded and MBE in the New Year’s Honours.

Finally a name that deserves it!

 

[hehehe]

I’m T6. I know I really do have quite a few Lisa pouches now, I have them all apart from the pink and emerald green (how did I miss out on them? I really don’t know! I got them all out the other day and the OG black velvet pouch goes have a nicer feel to it than successive velvet versions. Felt more weighty velvet and more like fabric if that makes sense? The others are more like velvet “flock” feel

I have the red, black, emerald green (I can't find it anywhere though!), floral and current Liberty one. I didn't get the pink or denim, but I'll probably get this new cherry one at some point, though not with this launch.

I finally saw the Rouges in person and swatched them on my hand, and none of them appealed to me. Romy is very pretty though, and the only one I think is a unique colour, but way too cool-toned for me. Ashes is a perfect cross between Velvet Affair and Muse, both of which I own and they don't suit me. Lisa & Medici were too cool-toned, and Simone too beige.

Audrey was disappointing -- shallow payoff and the shade looks like lipsticks I used to wear in 2012, so kind of dated -- I thought it'd be more peach rather than the sheeny off-pink colour it shows up for me, and I don't think it looks anything like the reference colour from that Audrey Hepburn film, but I guess the pigment in Lisa's collector's piece would've darkened over time so it wouldn't be accurate to what it was in the 60s.

My friend has met Lisa a few times through work and can confirm she's lovely, friendly and totally normal IRL

So glad to hear that her persona in her videos matches real life.

I love the cat earrings but expensive for what I believe is gold plate

I love those cat earrings but almost
£500 - that’s my cats’ food / vet / toiletry budget for a couple months! They would not be amused.

I'm in my sixties; love cosmetics and always have, it's my one big splurge. I must have purchased from every brand available in the UK. Lisa's products are my favourites and have gradually edged out all my previous picks. I've had a couple of things that didn't work perfectly for me, but the quality is beyond anything I've tried. That bad review is absolute BS, I don't believe it for a second.

But ... I actually came on to see what you all thought of the new Society refill! It looks gorgeous on Lisa and the models and I'm in the market for a new spring/summer pink, but worried it might look dated on me ... like I've been using the same lipstick since secondary school!

I'd love an under eye concealer and would pay whatever for a good one. I have used Sisley in the past, that was pricey at around £70 but that was for 15ml (and a brush!).

Regarding the volume of product in the concealer pencil - it's listed as 0.4g. I pay £35 for Bobbi Brown's long-wear brow pencil - 0.33g. I use it every day and it lasts me, actually I'm not sure how long, a year? So I don't think this is terrible if it ticks the boxes. I'm not sure I'd get much use out of it, or I'd burn through it if it did a good job with dark circles.

I did repurchase the Kitten Lash mascara, however, despite previously being unsure as to whether I would or not. I had a few 5% codes so stacked those. I was a bit disappointed that it didn't last as long as others (I usually buy Clinique mascara), but often all I wear is gloss, brow pencil and mascara, and it is a great product so justified the repurchase to myself.

Lisa historically used the LM secret camouflage palette for pinpoint concealing. That palette seemed to last forever! However it did require to really learn and perfect the technique and use the correct brush to get a really good undetectable finish. It contains a whopping 5.868g of product.

The newer, more convenient and easier to use LM secret concealer duo pen is £34 and contains 2 x 1g. One for disguising and one for under eye and brightening. I’d assume that it’s very pigmented being from that brand…? I haven’t tried it do can’t really comment.

Lisa’s pinpoint pencil contains 0.4g for £27. In comparison her eye and scripting lip pencils contain 1.2g.

I can only assume that the reason for the price point and small amount is the concentration of pigment which means you need a tiny tiny amount to get results, without a brush. So you pay for the convenience and portability of it too?

It’s still a lot, don’t get me wrong. I was considering buying the boy brow arch pencil but was put off by the tiny amount as highlighted on the reviews. It’s 0.5g for £24

I wonder what the next LM. Concealer will be, price wise and grammage?

You make a good point, but then if the customer service team is telling people you could buy two, I just feel like it misses the mark. Moreover, as you say, you can buy similar products at a far more reasonable cost.

I placed an order literally a day before the double points offer went live so I'm pretty unhappy about that and I don't want to order anything else until a new collection comes out. I'm tempted to get the cleanser set, but the samples of it I've used in the past broke me out.

I have Kitten Lash -- I loved it when I first got it and it gives a lovely look, but it has gone off quicker than any mascara I've ever owned. Anyone else noticed this? I got mine in May and I've already gone back to Guerlain.

You should email customer service and express your disappointment. It’s possible they might give you the extra points. They’re really good that way.
Ive had the mascara and the liner since May and its not gone off yet - it smells the same, comes out smooth and not clumpy, and gives a really lovely coat - I’ve used it so regularly that I decided to get the Autumn kit so I have a backup when I finish them.

 

[hehehe]

New video launching a new lipstick shade of the Rouge and I think her cream blush makes an appearance at 30:35

 

[MiffyBay]

Has anyone seen any clues or hints as to when Lisa is doing her next release?

It’s like you called them to life! Not new products but the autumn kits are brilliant and I needed a refill on the kitten flick eyeliner and mascara so I’m delighted! Plus that gorgeous Liberty bag

 

[thegirlscout]

I’m surprised she got rid of Cinnabar, I would have thought that those colours would be popular and staples for people

 

[50sGirl]

Where in London can you by LE? I popped into Selfridges a few days ago and couldnt see her counter.

Liberty.
Also Space NK I believe.

Lisa sent a voicemail earlier on her insta channel saying there is about 2 days of stock left of the Betty palette just in case anyone’s on the fence about it

 

[Ponponpon]

I messaged asking about whether it could be used under-eye and got this response. Not sure about getting two shades

I bought one to be a true concealer. I didn't want it to be brightening as that's not true to how I do make up, and I'd it's to cover redness or breakouts (as per the video), I don't want to bring attention to them! You don't have to buy 2, but I do think it's smart of them to give people the choice.

Please do.
Did you order enough to get the “vegan leather” (plastic!) pencil case?

I did - I wanted 2 brushes too but held off until the launch. I could do with a smaller pencil case anyway so two (needlessly spent) birds one stone, so to speak.

 

[Dee232323]

I think the shade I bought was Pink Moon and it is probably too close to my skin colour. I don’t want glitter either.
I do like Natasha Denona for matte eyeshadows. Most shadows crease on me sadly.
I like that Lisa has different formulas for lipstick so I can go light or bold.
Love, love, love her Skin Tint. I’m still trying to use up my older foundations first but when I use the ST I much prefer it even though it has less coverage it looks better.

The skin tint is the best complexion product i think I’ve ever tried! I’m also trying to use up other foundations but I keep returning to the skin tint. I can’t get her foundation to work for me though. Love the shade range but no matter what I do it’s dry and cakey on me. I’ve dry skin. The skin tint is unreal though. I have it in two shades (for pale and self tanned). I’d re purchase over and over!

 

[hehehe]

I'm an Emerald so I had a chance to peruse everything but there was nothing I wanted. Very surprised Cinnabar palette is d/c, isn't it the most popular one? I only like one shade in it (deep ochre) & I generally don't buy palettes anymore.

 

[JaneRev]

Thanks.
Yes I was disappointed with Trinny’s BFF too. I saw no difference after application either. I love the concept of Trinny’s pots but the eyeshadows crease on me which is a shame.

Wow you’re a T6.
I do have 2 of her foundation sample cards so I may try them and then email them.

Enjoy London but don’t forget your elbow pads so that you can get past the hoards of Freaks at the SR Flagship counter! (Yes I know it’s not Hirons thread, but old habits die hard and I couldn't help myself!)

After not been impressed with BFF, I had a lip pot as a GWP which I was neither here or there with. Hence not buying the eye pots.

I have hooded eyes (thanks mum and dad) and I'm cack handed so cream eyeshadows and me don't get on.

Thank you we are going in May. I'll make sure I pack enough elbow and knee pads to stop me getting squashed in the hoards at its NOT a pop up. She's bound to be mentioned as she's the polar opposite of Lisa

I'm not joking when I say this... I've shown tlmy husband a picture of where the SR counter is in Liberty. I'm sending him in to check whether CH is about before I go in. She'd probably start trying to talk to me as I'm in a chair and I would not be able to help myself telling her to twat off

 

[Missmopps]

I wish she’d upload her video when she does the pre-release but she never does that until it’s on general release.

 

[Phil I Buster]

You’re all tempting me to buy the Skin Tint. I’ve not bought her foundation yet because I’ve several still to work through but I’ve not got a tinted moisturiser at all and I like that it has skincare benefits.
No idea which colour I’d need, possibly T1, T2 or T3 but then I‘ve watched others on YouTube who I *think* are a similar shade to me and they’ve all gone for higher numbers.
Is anyone on here a paler shade?
Also does it have more coverage than Trinny’s BFF because I never felt that did anything for me.

Echoing above but I was recommended T8 which seemed so dark for me but I had sent a few selfies in natural light and that was the suggestion. I’d not have opted for that if I had just had to select, so it’s interesting that others are also getting a darker tone than they’d thought!

 

[ButterTart]

How easy is the mascara to wash off/remove? The only mascaras I can cope with are Benefit's Tinted Primer (technically not a mascara, but is the best brown mascara I've found tbh) and Burts Bees as every other one I've tried is impossible to remove fully without rubbing my eyes into painfully swollen submission.

I’ve found it comes off pretty easily, whether I’ve washed my face of used a makeup wipe. Agree there are some that can be a challenge!
