Lisa Eldridge 💄

My concealer pencil is here! Only tried it on my hand; it's true to skin both colour and texture. Will try it a few times and report back further.

Reddit is unhinged

have to say with all the build up I am a smidge disappointed…

 

[hehehe]

Not sure about when but from Facebook comments I think we're getting concealer, new tint shades, and one or two new eyeshadow palettes next.

I wish she would do a pictures on a spectrum of models each wearing a shade of her foundation, so you could see what the shade looked like on all the different skin tones.

Meh. More nude shades. I just can't get excited.

I have a question to ask everyone. Do I need to buy Sorcery palette? I never got it because I wouldn't use blue or green eyeshadow. Buying Betty and Deset Gleam has changed that as I didn't think I'd wear purple either and those two are my favourite palettes. I use the purples and the green all the time. I love the looks I've seen on the website and on youtube with Sorcery. Please help me decide!

I have 4 palettes - the 3 mentioned above plus Myth.
Sorcery is my favourite but I rarely use the blue shade.

Here are swatches of both Desert Gleam and Betty (both on left) next to Sorcery. (The slight red tinge is because I’m wearing a red top today so it must be from that!)
I love the colours of DG but the shadows don’t seem to be as good quality as my other palettes. They are more patchy and I need to use more to get the same pay off as my other LE palettes. Tbh if DG was the first LE eye palette I’d ever bought, I think it would‘ve put me off buying another.

Does anyone use the Elevated Glow regularly? I’ve had mine for ages (cosmic rose() and I always forget it’s there. Do you mix it in with foundation/tint or use it on high points? Any tips appreciated

I have the pink one - it's lovely, but I'm not sure it adds much to my overall look so I'm trying to use it up as I find it a fiddly product (shake, unscrew, dab on, rescrew, blend, check for lines) and I think a good powder shadow would give a similar result a lot faster (nb I tend to put my makeup on in poor light at high speed, so need slap on and go products).

A tip I was given on the LE counter is to mix elevated glow with whatever lipstick you're wearing to make a cream blush - I was amazed how pretty it looked, and it seemed to pull my make up together (can't really explain it, but I thought it was a great tip).

Thanks all for the concealer pencil reviews - very useful!

I’m trusting Lisa to come up with the correct cool mid/deep brown as well as a good shade for cool blondes like my sister

 

[thegirlscout]

I don't want another lip product please, or a complexion product in a range that once again doesn't have a shade match for me.

You may have done this already but before I stopped wearing foundation etc I was looking to buy Lisa’s and I wasn’t sure what to go for so I emailed them and we had a back and forth about my shade and they sent 4 pots of different shades and even though the pots were small they were filled a decent amount. This may be something to try?

Really enjoying reading everyone’s experiences with Lisa’s makeup.

Sadly (well, not for my wallet) I’m not excited by the new balms, I do love lip products but I have so many to get through, I can’t justify it.

I’m nearly out of cleanser and will replace. I feel I’m quite generous with my use of skin tint but it’s showing no signs of running out. I got T3, and have a T4 which may be a bit better match, especially if I ever get any hint of sun on my face but it really is so forgiving that the T3 is fine until I’ve used it up.

I’d love a concealer too! My favorite £££ has been the Sisley under eye one I bought on the recommendation of Sam Chapman years ago because she said it didn’t settle into creases - she was right and it is excellent, I don’t have many lines under my eyes but almost any concealer I use ends up gathering there anyway.

Nothing kills a brand for me quicker than bloody influencers everywhere. They'll be onto marketing the next product tomorrow for whichever brand pays them to show up, so obviously they don't care about the lipsticks. & I'm getting my head round the fact that all these expensive lipsticks were sent to all these influencers FOR FREE precisely to get ME to spend MY MONEY on them, which I earned on the blood sweat and many tears of my 9 to 5.

It was actually hard to find the swatches I posted, which means that out of all the influencers receiving free shit, only this person bothered to post useful content -- which is all the colours in one place in different lighting so we can see them clearer. We should've got this from the brand in the first place, to help us make informed decisions, not inviting influencers to eat off plates of gold while showing their ignorance of the brand.

There's one idiot on Lisa's instagram in a filtered reel so you can't even tell the true colour of the lipstick, but here's 30 seconds of this arsehole eyefucking the camera and flipping her hair while people in the comments are asking for swatches.

I haven't seen this before from Lisa, so I'm disappointed and starting to agree with the OTT comments on Reddit about how Lisa is abusing the trust of her loyal fans who supported her brand from the beginning. I'm exhausted and over this launch now.

As an emerald I have to agree, that I am always regretting the early purchase one day prior to release without proper information and videos and swatches and would choose a different shade or refill - when I asked about possible changes, well, it was too late as the “order was ready” - being in EU I am still waiting for the delivery though. Anyway, won’t be never ever again an early buyer.

I was a bit disappointed her video just showcased the art. I was looking forward to her tutorial for them. It was difficult choosing when you just had the pics on website to go on.

I'm hoping she also does her gift suggestions/reviews video this year. I always look forward to them.

 

[ButterTart]

Are there any hints she is going to bring out blusher soon? My current one is on its way out so I'll be looking soon.

She had a cream blush in a tube but it was so difficult to squeeze any out that it got quietly dropped. I’m a bit disappointed in this latest release. Not really needing more lip products, especially balm types. Plus the packaging looks like Bobbi Brown.

Beauty

Just looking at her sale stuff.

I definitely want a couple of the glosses and am looking to make the order up to free delivery, I’m not normally a lipstick girl but want to try one of the velvet ones, I’m torn between Beauty, Intrigue and Petal, anyone got any preference?

Beauty is lovely - can make it look very blushed / blurry and it’s nice mixed with some highlighter as a blusher

 

[The Devils Arse]

I would like to kidnap Lisa so she could do my makeup every day.

 

[yessenia_d]

A concealer that doesnt crease? A 2-in-1 corrector concealer hybrid?

 

[francesthemute]

I love the Skin Tint too and have pretty much ditched foundation altogether. I'm a T3 or T4, I have both and alternate or mix if I can be bothered. It's a perfect product for me though, love the texture, coverage. I will keep purchasing.

I have really loved the cleanser but three tubes down and I'm not sure I can justify a repurchase, it's so expensive. Maybe once I run out and use something else I'll miss it, perhaps it does more for me than I realise?

Elevated Glow - I got it in Pink Moon too and don't use it much, it's nice but the lid gets a bit messy if I don't stand it upright. I don't think it makes a huge difference, but I do like it in summer when it's hot and I just use SPF and no real makeup, maybe with the baume embrace now I've got the Epanoui which suits me so much more than Red Curve, that was a bit orangey on me but is like a reddy coral on my daughter so she is happy!

I've been tempted several times by the refillable lipstick but I am going to use the things I have more and maybe ask for it as a birthday gift in a few months.

I just don’t feel like spending £27 on something that I have to sharpen, therefore half of it is ending up in the bin. Isn’t there another way to deliver the product? It just seems so wasteful!

 

[MiffyBay]

So I restocked for the summer (my busiest work time) … and I got Ione and the pinpoint to try. Very excited!
AND - I managed to stack 5 discount codes (I tried for a 6th but was told I’d reached the maximum) for a 25% discount! I never knew we could stack them so thank you to whomever in this thread mentioned it before! Brilliant

 

[FrankieBelle]

I wish she’d do it in brown.

Agree. I love the mascara but I'm blonde so brown suits me better
---
Just used the Skin Tint this morning over the new Ultra Violette Illuminating SPF drops and the finish is superb. The tint is great without the SPF but the glow is super lush using both together.

Well worth a try

Thanks for that, just watched it. Really good, in depth, honest review. Much better than any influencer short.

She was refreshing wasn’t she? Completely honest opinion. I like that.
Whatever other influencers claim, they can never be 100% honest or they’ll be thrown off the PR list.

Perhaps I am being a tad cynical but it was interesting that the lipsticks that she found were the closest matches for the new formula were all the ones that had recently been discontinued…
