Lisa Eldridge 💄

[francesthemute]

Oh, what timing! I've just run out of the cleanser and was trying to talk myself out of buying a new one and using up other things. But I'm a sucker for a deal so I'm in!

Atomic cherry

Ribbon pencil

Thank you. Much more of a brown red than I expected. I think it’d make my teeth look like Wotsits!

I've just watched Charlotte H's video of the original Rouges when they first came out. Simone and Romy do look similar. Romy looks a cool toned, slightly pinkier Simone.

On your arm though, I can't see much of a difference at all.

Hasn‘t Lisa got that thing where she sees far more shades of colour than the average person? Off to Google, mo…

It’s called Tetrachromacy.
So perhaps, where we see the shades as almost identical, Lisa sees the nuances within the colours.

I feel like I need to sort through my make up as I’m still holding on to things I got in my mid 20s and I’m early 30s now. I used to have something ridiculous like 50 eyeshadow palettes but I cut down by quite a lot, especially last year. I need to go through my lip products because I only really rate Lisa Eldridge and Mac for lipsticks. Need Marie Kondo to help me out.

I don’t have this shade but your comment intrigued me! Have you tried swatching it? This up-close photo from Temptalia makes it look as though there’s an outer layer of black with the green underneath?

Yes, i immediately swatched it and theres no green. I've swatched it so much it needs sharpening! I'm starting to think it's my eyes

Is Society similar to the one you’ve been using since school (please tell us what brand and shade it is and it must be good if they are still making it) I’d say go for it if you think a brightening corally pink will be perfect for you for the season. Channel the lovely Grace Kelly and embrace it! Have you already got the case? I love the refillable case SO MUCH! (I have Romy refill and Lisa in the case)

I’m on a self imposed spending ban (unless Lisa brings out a dark navy eye pencil) so I live precariously through all the purchase on this thread

Yes, I LOVE the case - I got it with Simone, and the formula is perfect I've been torn between getting Lisa or Ashes of Roses next (trying to wait till the blushes drop .....), but now Society has turned my head and I'm getting the fear that it will sell out as it's so so pretty. (I too would love a navy pencil btw!)

Been lucky to receive £150 Space NK gift card. I think I’ll wait for a good discount day when Lisa has introduced some new products to use it. I don’t shop there anymore (I worked there many years ago. It’s changed so much since the days of Nicky Kinnaird)

Do they do discount days often? Or shall I wait for Black Friday?

 

[Ponponpon]

Finally the blushes?!

 

[whitershadeofpale]

Are there any other emeralds who got today’s email about the new launch tomorrow? What do you think it might be?

 

[JaneRev]

Can anyone recall when Lisa said her new products would be on sale please?
For some reason I thought it was today but I can’t find where I read that.

@50sGirl
From what I remember I think it's September

 

[Libertine1975]

Looks like eyebrow stuff is coming based on the latest email...

 

[Tabitha]

I didn’t realise there was a free gift this time. Is it still the denim bag?

Off topic, does anyone know if the Hourglass Holiday Palettes are only ever available on their own website or do they also sell them at Space NK, etc?

Now on SpaceNK https://www.spacenk.com/uk/brands/h...Z8UXGfU1rbtz_Cz0yM-3dn1-E059CShuOSEFVnyoEI_sD

Looking at my past orders, I got the leopard one for £68 (down from RRP £86) mid-Nov so i’d expect these to go on sale at some point too

 

[thegirlscout]

I don’t need any more LE lipsticks. I have about 20 already.

Girl after my own heart!

 

[JaneRev]

Oh I’ve had my eye on one of her eyeshadow palettes. I love the look of Vega but not sure I’d use all the colours. That’s the prob with palettes for me, I use one or two colours!
---
Just discovered that spritzing my face with her mist before applying the new skin tint is key to making it look ultra smooth and glowy

I've got Vega, I'm thinking in the future add an empty pallete so customers can mix and match.

Is her face mist worth purchasing? I'm very tempted, I have a few of the same brand to work through first but thought I'd give it a go when I picked up a new cleanser

 

[usefullyuseless]

I wonder are those images AI generated? Just looking at the lines on the Lisa Eldridge lips and they're very straight/angular when compared to my other LE products

 

[JaneRev]

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.

I think that Lisa is going to bring out a sample card for the skin tint. I am usually very pale foundation wise think caspers ghost with red cheeks and I went for T6. Perfect match

I find it covers a lot better than Trinnys BFF I was really disappointed with that, as for me there was zero coverage and did naff all.

The only reason I haven't bought Lisa's foundation is I'm fed up buying foundation that is either too orange, doesn't cover or isn't quite pale enough. It's only recently I've realised with people like Lisa I'm not going to be the palest. At the moment Lisa is out of stock of the shades I think will work for me. Plus my husband is taking me to London for a couple of nights. So it makes sense to be colour matched I'm also going to be cheeky and ask for a small sample so I can try it out. My Liberty beauty drop credit is burning a hole in my pocket

 

[50sGirl]

I'm T1! I'm pretty pale but have sun damage. This really evens me out.

I bought Ashes of Roses (I tried it in Liberty last month and really liked it on me), a lip pencil (I only have an old CT one), and two of the glosses (Blush & Ribbon). I have Petal and Muse. With this I got the two free bags which will be nice as I travel a lot so I collect travel bags. A lot of them I got rid of recently filling with small cleansers, moisturizers, tampons, pantiliners etc to be donated to women in Western North Carolina since they got devastated by the hurricane and one of my neighbors drives up there regularly to donate things like that, food, cooked meals, money, et cetera.

I really want regular concealer. I think the pencil one won't be for me since I have pretty decent skin but figured, why not if I'm buying some stuff for myself for my birthday. It's so obscenely expensive. Says me who bought it though, sigh.

What a lovely thing to do.

That’s a very considered and helpful review, thanks. I don’t mind spending either and I think in most cases it’s reflected in what you get; however this time I think it’s a pass but I look forward to reading other thoughts!

 

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

Can you stack the points?
I always forget to use them. Isn’t it 5% off or something like that?

Thanks everyone. I do wear a lot of green clothes so I think I’d get a lot of use from it.

Yes you can. The website says you can't but they stack and the order goes through. I think you can only stack 4 to get 20% off, but it makes a difference.

 

[50sGirl]

Nope and I've even started a little lisa pot. Depends what she releases plus there's not the "buy now otherwise it will go within an hour" mentioning no names

I’ve cancelled my Liberty Beauty Drop and I’ve got just under £200 to spend so I’m hoping they’ll be released on their site too so I can have a splurge.
I’m still hoping for a concealer and a brown mascara.
