Lisa Eldridge 💄

[yessenia_d]

Interesting. I typically wear it without primer (but I’ll use the Pat McGrath artistry wand on the mobile lid) and the colours in that palette look exactly as swatched when I wear them. Madrigal is definitely not peacock green on me. I am fair with neutral undertones, no oily lid issue.

I have very oily lids and the NARS primer doesn't work on me, only the MAC Pro Longwear eyelid primer does.

I have Madrigal as a single -- in my experience the colour swatches on the website are way off reality for most of the products. Madrigal is described as a blackened gold-green shadow, but I was very surprised to find it's actually a true peacock and the most visible colour in it is the blue/green element. So I was disappointed and I've never used it after the initial test.

Hmmmm, I might have to make an excuse to dawdle down to London to have a proper swatchfest at a counter. No hardship really

I hope she makes a grey pencil - come on Lisa, be age inclusive!

The only grey eyebrow pencil I've liked so far is Nyx, and it's not that great. I would happily buy a grey Lisa pencil without even trying it first as you just know it would be fantastic.

 

[hehehe]

I've just received the Dreamy Damask. It's not really pale, I would say it's a mid wearable pink. The sparkle is very subtle. I also ordered the refill in Medici. That's a richer mauve pink, so more wearable than a plum on me. For reference, I have a pale complexion the skin tint in T4 is perfect for me. What colours do you have in the Luxuriously Lucent. I have quite a few of them and agree they don't last a long time but I really like how they feel. The velvet matt lipsticks don't suit me at all but I am knocking on a bit now.

Thanks very much. It sounds lovely, I should get it. Agree on the Velvets, I too don't go for matte lips anymore. I had Mepris and Kitten something in the Lucents -- didn't show up at all on my lips.

I'm surprised Lisa's tutorials for this collection are coming in November ... a whole month after the release?

 

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

So I've gone from not wanting anything in this round of releases to making two orders.... because it's Lisa and her products, I'm not even angry about it.

 

[Missmopps]

Anyone else noticed this teaser in one of Lisa’s latest emails?

She referenced her tutorial here:



and I think the sneak peak came at 14:52 - a pencil concealer?! I’d be so so excited if it is!

Well spotted! I was planning on watching this video this weekend. It does make sense to make a pencil concealer as the pinpoint technique is one of Lisa’s trademark techniques

I want you all to post photos of your stash. I will add mine later.

I’ve sold some things on Vinted so I’m going to repurchase the cleanser - it really is so good - and I might succumb to the palette. The colours look so pretty but like you @Ponponpon I suit cool tones, not warm.

 

[Missmopps]

Thanks for sharing! Although I prefer 'my' colour (2W) in the S&S pencil, I prefer the formula of the E&D one. It's much longer lasting and doesn't wear off as easily when I put a balm or gloss on top.

I love the shades of the sculpting, I wish she would make a few nude shades in the E&D too. Muse was my nearest and it was still too strong a colour.

 

[50sGirl]

What does that mean?

It’s like a duo-chrome but in a lip gloss form.

 

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

Oh the 'she' thing is annoying. It'll fall out of favour and you'll be able to relax again!

I bought desert gleam because I saw a few youtubers use it and Lisa of course and started to want it as it gave different looks than I thought it would. My eyes are olive green so thought khaki would look odd, but it works. It's now my second favourite after Betty (which was another palette I bought thinking I would hate it and loved). Theres a theme there!

I've swatched ground coffee, burnt umber and night forest all together and I'm seeing a bit of green so I dont think the pencil was mis marked. But if you are after a forest green, this is not the pencil. It looks to me like a black with a green tinge. It does go well with desert gleam which brings out a bit more green from it.

That's how I tried simone. Just a bit of skin tint and nothing else.

 

[Missmopps]

I really love Romy and the colour Lisa as a refill. I love the case but them I’m a sucker for nice packaging

 

[50sGirl]

I’m not a fan of the title of that blush. Usually she has great titles but that just sounds very Charlotte Tilbury.

Yes and also very Nars.

 

[Ponponpon]

Oh you are an absolute darling, thank you!! I really appreciate this so much
I’m the same skin tone as you, also very pale, which is extra helpful here!
Looking at the swatches, Society seems to lean a bit towards the salmon pink side which I don’t think suits me very much so you have saved me a lot of money! I wonder if it’s close to the shade ‘Audrey’ as that’s been described as a 60s salmon pink esque shade.
So interesting how in the bullet they look far more similar than they do on the arm.
Once again, thank you so much!!

You're welcome.

The texture of Blush Lightly is in the Velvet range so it's more highly pigmented than the Rogue Experience range. That probably has something to do with it.

I think Society suits me, despite me not being an overly pink girl. However it has cool undertones, as do I. However, we're each unique and I take the stance of "if I like it, I'll make it work"

Strong pass for me. Excited to see what comes next. Love the brand overall

 

[Ponponpon]

Trust Lisa to come up with a brown mascara I’m actually contemplating despite never worn brown in my life. She really does make everything do covetable. I admire the Betty Palette and the lovely cat that’s the inspiration for it but I’m not going for it as I don’t bother with eyeshadow and pink/lilac looks horrendous on my cool toned skin.

I have cool toned skin, and it's not overly lilac unless you build it up.

As with all of Lisa's make up, it's a luxury product, but I wouldn't rule it out based on cool tones and lilac alone.

I bought phoebe and fawn yes i know i have dozens of neutral palettes but i couldnt risk it being discontinued and missing out!. Then because I wanted the free make up bag I got the eye pencil in ground coffee.

There was a free bag? I didn't get one with my order (£200 spend).

Absolutely loving the new Liquid Silks. So easy to apply and blend, long lasting and no irritation for my aging, crêpy eyelids.

 

[50sGirl]

I love the metallic eyeshadows. I find the matte ones less pigmented and more difficult to pick up on the brush and blend though. Love the eye pencils as they smudge when you apply them then set to budgeproof. Love the different lipstick formulas that I've tried. Love the mascara. I bought the brown but wasn't expecting the chocolate shade as my lashes are darker. It doesn't flake or smudge so happy with that as well. Really enjoy using the liquid eyeshadows as a one and done or as a primer. I like the highlighter but I only like a subtle highlight so that might be why my experience is different. I watched a review of the nyx buttermelt highlighters yesterday and they looked like glitter so definitely not for me! I haven't tried any other products but I'm waiting to use up what I have before buying more.

I think Lisa is one of the more reliable and better brands and I still wouldn't shell out 2k. But then I gasp at the total when I'm spending enough to get the freebie bag

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.

 

[Shineyshine]

Thanks. It was probably last year. I can recall her swatching about 4 shades from her cheek down to her jaw line to show you how to pick the best match.
I’ve swatched 8 shades from her sample cards and I *think* it’s between 2 shades - 2 and 5 which seem pretty far apart.
I may go into Space NK next week as I think I’d like to try the skin tint before the foundation. I feel I will be T2.
Is anyone else finding that as they get older that less is more?
If I wear a full face I feel I look older than if I keep it light. I can’t be bare faced if I go out so I think Skin Tint may help.

Definitely agree with the less is more.
I bought Lisa’s foundation when it came out, and I’ve mainly been using it more like a concealer to even out any redness etc. The shade match is the best I’ve ever had.
Now I’ve got the skin tint as well, so I can use that if I want to cover my whole face, as it’s lovely and light. It’s good to have options!

Went to Selfridges today to look at the new lippies. Wanted to go to Liberty but a friend went on Tuesday and they won't be selling them until November.

Only one counter assistant and lots of people waiting so I couldn't wait until I could be served. Could only see 6 of the 8 shades and want to get their opinion on which shade will suit me best. Ashes of Roses looks nice. TBH I'm not sure I want to splash the cash at the moment as got too many others which I'm happy with.

Will be interested in feedback. My gf got Lisa and likes how it feels.

I'm in the US and you can't resell used makeup on resell sites

I used to give my mom stuff but she passed away about a year and a half ago. Maybe my stepmom will want it but I've given her so much, she jokes she needs to have a clone to use it all

I’ve seen used makeup on Poshmark (even though the rules say you can’t sell it) and it’s allowed on Mercari as well.

The sale reached me today. I had been buying via Liberty but have now stopped after I used my remaining credit. I love the lurex eyeshadows and already own the two left so they'll be good back ups and I've experimented with some lipsticks and pencils. I can't wait to check them out.
Edit: I'm now at Tourmaline status!
