Likewise. My no-buy had 2 exeptions and that was that I was allowed to buy something from the Lisa Eldridge Summer and Autumn launches but I had to really think about it because her launch videos aren't average. I got a lipstick early in the year, but with the palette launch it made things so much more difficult.

When the new lipsticks came out, there was so much hype about how they were the perfect 90s supermodel shades, etc. My first thought was, the shades those 90s supermodels wore are almost all easily available for a fraction of the price. The first brand that came to mind was Revlon. The Rum Raisin comparison was easy confirmation.

Most of these color names are taken from the Grumbacher paints, geared mostly for beginning artists. These colors are extremely well known amongst artists. Sketching tree trunks onto a canvas is a Raw Sienna (or Burnt Umber) moment. Anyway You correctly noted the pigment undertone in Lamp Black, which Is a very pure black, but tends to muddy slightly in mixtures. Natural sources may be brownish or bluish in tone because of impurities.

I knew these weren't for me (I want the glitz and duo/multichrome shine), but always lovely to listen in.

I have sorcery and myth and I think your “it’s just eyeshadow” sums it up for me. I have hooded eyes and find all of the shadows transfer throughout the day so most of the shades I can only use as liner without issue. I don’t know what I was expecting but I much prefer the Natasha denona formulas and dont think I’ll feel compelled to purchase any more of these.

This one's just like actually getting to touch and use them. Thank you! Please keep up the good work!

I appreciate you not requesting a replacement for the 2 broken shades- i was thinking the same when you mentioned their situation. If you are reviewing, you got this experience and you can review them anyway, plus just repress them. For a regular consumer of course, I would justify requeastng a replacement so that the company develops either a better formula or better packaging.

I'm in no rush to buy this but I think I will get curated singles once she sells the empty palette (should the shades be practical for me) Edited after watching: wow I would have been utterly disappointed had I jumped in with these shadows, they really aren't made for me both in color and shine. While still beautiful I can find simular shades that would suit me far better.

Really loved the review. Totally agree with your take on the LE palettes. I find what's interesting on the lipsticks is how different they are on each person. As you mentioned Affair has a reddish quality on you, on my sister who is a cool-toned blonde, it is definitely a warm 90s brown. On me, (palish blond but more warm toned), it is a really light beige. It's not just her lipsticks of course

Hey Hannah ! Ahh so glad to hear your thoughts on this launch! Vega is my absolute fave and I loved your customized palette. I was shocked by the blendability of Lisa’s mattes; I definitely wasn’t expecting a truly unique matte formula that I’d be so excited about, yet I really got that from these shadows. Anytime I find myself wanting a pop of chunkier glitter, I’ve been loving to do my complete look with the palette from Lisa and then just tap a glitter topper shade from Pat over the center of the lid 🤩 PS a couple of recommendations that I feel like are calling your name - her newer liquid lurex shades are incredible - I think you’d love Cressida, Zora, Emily, Anais, Titania, or Viola 🥺 And (off topic) if you haven’t tried the Mimi blush stick from Westman Atelier, I think you’d love how neutral it is

This was super interesting. I only bought the Sorcery palette, and I think it's quite a different experience to the ones you have tried (it only has one matte, for a start - which I like as a liner). It might just be my preference & skin tone etc reading differently, but there are some pretty colourful shades in it, that are what they look like they will be. I was kind of disappointed in Mercurial at first, but it turned out I just needed more of it!

One thought I had as I was listening to you describe the patchiness in applying individual matte shadows: 1) I think you are absolutely correct to say the mattes in this collection behave/should be treated more like creams than powders, and thus 2) I wonder if your Rephr brushes are affecting the application process? Rephr makes their brushes from natural hair, and while the grippy properties of natural hair are an asset when applying powder formulas, they tend to behave more erratically with creams and liquid (especially noticeable when blending liquid foundation or concealer with a natural hair implement). I purchased the Vega and Myth palettes and I've really enjoyed that same airbrush-y, blendable quality you described when layering shades. But my personal brush collection is almost exclusively Sigma and recent MAC-all of which are synthetic-and my experience, even with individual mattes of either formula, is that they blend and build extremely easily on their own. I don't know for certain that this is the exact answer, but I'd be curious to know if you find there's a noticeable difference in application or performance just by switching tools!

I think the lesson here is that there's something for everyone and this may not be for everyone. What we buy is all very specific to whatever your particular tastes are that you may or may not like something or buy more of the same same, or mix it up. I think of all youtubers I follow, I find that you're looking for every individual shadow to pass your pressure test (which is pretty intense IMO) and that is totally ok and not without merit (after all, why buy X for more if you dont need to, unless you want to or don't care?) ! I spent a lot of time buying shadows that swatch gorgeously and reflective and interesting - like they speak to my soul and then i never use them because they dont make sense in my life and corporate America where I spend most of my time. I can't d around every morning with with chunky reflective anything and experiment talking to clients and VPs - maybe in old agency life but I also like to mix things up and really want a variety and not drama in every shadows. To each their own! Curious if you'd used all the shadows (like all all) on your eyes vs just swatching and using the ones you like? I def. didn't have any issues blending or with patchiness with these shadows

I am 45 and I love the palettes, own Vega, Sorcery and Myth. You describe my preferences quite well: eyeshadow that lasts, I am mesmerized how my eyes look after 12-14 hours. And I love the option to use Vega for a polished day look and apply (a lot of!) Moonswirl or Supernova for going out after work. Even as a teenager I used to say I do not wish to look like a discoball and those shadows do not make my eyelids (deep set!) shine like crazy. My eyelids are not especially crappy and I do not use a primer nevertheless no problem with applying those shadows which are supposed to work as a base. I love beautifying, polished makeup and I think Lisa Eldridge delivers that. I own Pats Mothership 1 and used it religiously but retired it. Too much fallout for my taste compared to LE, not possible to use on the go due to the extreme packaging. In theory I love a hefty palette but in practice I did never love using it. Edit: I do not own Tom Ford or Chanel as the four pan palettes do not offer enough versatility. Victoria Beckhams palettes look boring 😂 even to me.

You articulate my eyeshadows needs as well! I love when something lasts, find big bulky palettes cumbersome and overwhelming. As much as I wanted to love Pat’s eyeshadows I felt there was way too much fallout on my face to really enjoy working with them. And I need my makeup to last. I don’t really do touch ups, and to have something that holds up reliably, is really what I want. I love the look of Vega and would love to curate 2 of my own palettes!

@@beaherzberg you will love Vega. I curated a palette with shades from Vega and Myth and love the grey-lavenderness of the combination. I used it exclusivly when I visited my mum for the holidays. We spent some cozy time as a family but invited some friends over for New Years Eve. This little curated palette fullfilled all my needs, polished for having a coffee in my little hometown and quite glamourous for New Years Eve and everything in between.

I completely agree with what you mean with the matte eyeshadows not having much purchase, I was so confused at first but I find the more you work the brush over the area the more payoff you get, kind of massaging it on with the brush. We have similar skin tones albeit I’m a fraction less fair. I so often find midtone brown and bronze eyeshadows pulling orange/red on my eyes and I’ve spent so much on Lisa Eldridge lipsticks trying to get less pink neutrals! I’ve learned so much about which colours work best on me since following your channel (am also now in a no buy thanks to you) I will follow you to the end of the earth for your recommendations and wisdom.

I definitely agree with you about Lisa’s makeup pulling orange! As another muted pale olive I was surprised by how much her lipsticks pulled warmer on me when it was supposed to be neutral or even slightly blue leaning. I believe she herself is slightly warm leaning, and if there’s anything I’ve learned, it’s that makeup brands created by makeup artists that have warm undertones themselves have a “neutral” point that is shifted warmer than a true neutral (in my opinion Natasha Denona is the worst offender)

Hi Hannah! Loved the nuanced perspective on a product that I've only heard glowing reviews of so far! I recently switched to the UD primer potion and I've found it's both a blessing and a curse. It's sticky grippiness keeps my shadow from creasing in my hooded lids like no other, but achieving a good, blown-out blend has become sooooo difficult due to that same quality in the primer. If you want to make these shadows work for you, or just feel like you're as skilled in blending as you actually are, perhaps you could opt for a different primer, or lay down some concealer in the crease, blend the shadow there and then put the primer potion on the mobile lid and do the rest.

Thank you for your thorough review! It really got me thinking as I do not at all share your experience. It made me realise even more than before how makeup preference is always important to take into consideration when buying new makeup, and particularly eye shadow. I find it interesting how you choose to compare the Lisa Eldridge eye shadows with shadows from brands like Pat McGrath and Clionadh that all represents very different styles of makeup. Clionadh the indie brand trying to create the most shifty sparkly shadows not really connected to any looks or styles or anything apart from being the most shiny sparkly shifty thing ever pressed into a pan. And then Pat McGrath which represents very American hollywoodesque and Instagram oriented makeup with bold looks and overly saturated pigment with super sparkly special shades to take the looks even further into the stratosphere. And then you have Lisa Eldridge who is a makeup artist that represents a completely different array of makeup styles. Elegance, subtlety, simplicity to editorial but with a more creative or graphic twist in her professional work. And usability and workable in everyday life for all of us people who do not live our lives on social media but in old fashioned work environments where makeup styles that go all the way in sparkly ness doesn’t really work. Most of Lisa’s tutorials are really about taking something from the limelight and making it work in everyday harsh daylight lighting. Taking age and texture and imperfection into consideration and making whatever you are born with more beautiful and smooth and usable. That is her unique selling point in my opinion. Which puts her in a different category to the others you compared her to. In a way if one absolutely wants to make a comparison Lisa represents really a more European style while both Pat McGrath and Clionadh in their respective differences still both represents very typical American expressions. Personally, (I have all six of Lisa’s palettes) I have almost left most of my other palettes lying since these came into my life. They are the ones I reach for on a daily basis. Which is quite opposite of what I thought when buying them as I thought they would feel too precious to use unless for a special occasion. But instead they are really usable for my everyday life. I agree with you on the fact that some of the warmer palettes lean very warm which calls for a light hand. But as these formulas allows for a light hand also and allows for building and not supersaturating at once even these colours have proven workable for me, which they usually are not. (I hardly ever use any of the myriads of copper and bronzey gold shades in my PmG palettes as they are just too much copper and gold (or red) to work. But Lisa’s shadows seems to be made for daylight use also and not just red carpet or artificial Instagram ring lights… And I really appreciate that. A word on formula and blend ability. I understood already from the swatches and from how hard you rub your fingers in the eye shadows that you might end up with blending problems. as these two matte formulas (who are different on the eyes btw) are both created for layering thin layers which will make them blend themselves without hardly any effort with no fallout or unevenness. Subsequently given their formula they are not meant to be put on in a thick splotch and then moulded and blended out with a lot of effort and blend, blend, blend… which I see has become a very common technique especially in the US. Which is ok too, of course. But not as easy and effortless. And formulas made for that will still end up giving less variety in end result as they will mostly offer a rather full on effect which again works great for studio lights but less so in normal everyday settings, at least for most people. I find Lisa’s shadows extremely easily blendable but all you need is apply and blend blend and you are done. And then you can add more layers if you want a more saturated look without getting any unevenness. But if you dig your finger into the pan and pick up tons of product and then deposits that on the lid you will get too much grip and will need another lighter shadow to blend out the edges with. Just as experienced in this video. Lisa does demonstrate this very well in her introduction video. How she designed these formulas to not need so much blending. As most people don’t have time for excessive eye shadow blending in the morning getting ready for work. They need something to work quickly and effortlessly. And I find these formulas allows for very fast work when on the go without skimping on the result. And I believe this is the demographic that Lisa is catering to with her own makeup line. Makeup that actually can be worn in normal daylight, by normal people in everything from dull everyday life and non exceptional settings to elegant editorial situations where effortlessness is sought after. And if that is what you are after and not just the next most shiny or most saturated thing with the most pay off - then Lisa Eldridge has got you covered. But if you are all into the Instagram/KZfaq vibe then there are tons of American both established and indie brands to choose from. But if you normally lust for Chanel quads or dior quints then Lisa Eldrige will be an interesting new choice with more interesting formulas at a more affordable price too. ❣️

I am European (Viennese) as well and I could not agree more. I am 45 and I simply do not have the time to blend and layer and blend. I work fulltime in the creative/design field and everything goes make-up wise. But I need shadows which are reliable and useable on the go. I have one LE palette in my make-up bag and can amp the look very easily if I go out (private) or visit events (work) in the evening. The result is always polished (Vega), sometimes colourful and still polished (when I use Sorcery or Myth) and that is exactly what I need and what I like. I did not experience patchiness as well. The only shadow I do not like at all is the topper included in Myth, this one is lackluster in my opinion. All the others are very useful to me and this is rare. As they are buildable I can make 17 out of 18 work (own Vega, Myth & Sorcery)! No waste and I know already that I will repurchase French Grey as it is my perfect base and Supernova which I love in the inneren corner or allover the lid, such a beautiful delicate sparkle! I own a Mothership (1, with the blue) and I loved it because it is so cool toned. I did love the luxurious packaging in theory but not in practice. Not useful on the go and the fingerprints! The shadows are very pigmented and overall a bit darker so I had to be very lighthanded and had to blend ... which I do not love. The baked special shades had a ton of fallout which I do not love neither. I refuse to wear a primer and I know glitter glue would help .. too much fuss to make the glitters last. The glitter particles are huge and I did use them for private occasions only as I do not wish to look like a discoball at work. I retired it after receiving the LE palettes. The Mothership worked well enough but I would not repurchase from Pat.

@@romana.in.wonderland I couldn’t not agree more on the Pat McGrath palettes! They take a lot of effort and glitter glue and such things just don’t vibe with me at all. They seem like they are made for swatching first and use on the eyes second. And with Lisa Eldridge it’s the other way around - which I prefer for reasons before mentioned also by you! I also agree with you that with Pat McGrath the colour scheme is often a bit too dark for daytime use unless you are very light handed and have time to blend to eternity. But I think the main reason behind that is that PmG does cater well for darker skin tones which is good. But they will therefore also be more finicky for lighter skin tones. And all in all overly saturated darker colours or super shiny glittery toppers are not a look i want for everyday use. So PmG for me is solely glam party usable. And for more common evening dinners or straight after work stuff then having the Lisa friend is what I rather reach for. ❣️

I find this quite hard, I prefer doing the eyes first and adjust base later and this is finally possible with the LE.

The idea of a gradient was interesting (from barely-there celebrity makeup all the way to avant-garde looks) but I kinda think there's more than one way something can be dramatic. Like, some people prefer the raw natural energy and textural sparkle of a freshly cracked open geode, while some prefer the highly refined, pristine, multi-faceted look of a gemstone that has been cut and polished. Both stunning, just different.
