FINALLY!!!! A THOROUGH REVIEW OF FIVE PIECES OF VICTORIA BECKHAM MAKEUP FT. SWATCHES AND APPLICATION

[@katrinadessavre5293]

Wait wait wait…Italian movie star…embracing how makeup looks on older women…textured skin…I LOVE this concept and would love to see a video on it. Maybe like the video you did on how you do your makeup for an elegant dinner? How you’d do your makeup to embody an Italian movie star?

[@sugaCat363]

I would love to see Hannah do a Sofia Loren inspired makeup look. Absolutely love the concept/imagery.

[@HannahLouisePoston]

yes, this would be a great focus for a video. Good idea!!

[@kearinarmstrong]

@@HannahLouisePoston I'm here for a whole series on "How I would do my makeup for X imaginary situation", including increasingly obscure and specific circumstances like "waking up after going to an Italian movie premiere the night before and having a coffee while gazing out of a hotel room window". It would be duping the vibes of scenarios rather than palettes.... ahem, I'll see myself out...

[@victoriabyers5161]

I would also love to see this! I'm still very young but the older I get, the more hooded my eyes get, and the more textured and lined the skin around my eyes gets. I already can't do my makeup the same way I did in my early 20s and have had to adjust a lot of my techniques and I'd love to see how other people adjust their techniques for less youthful eyes! 😂

[@victoriabyers5161]

@@kearinarmstrong I LOVE that idea and Hannah would totally nail it 😂 I'm here for it!!

[@onlychimerically]

i have to be honest--i LOVE no nonsense hannah. when it comes to money and what's worth our earned cash--it's refreshing to hear some unadulterated honesty. that's what we deserve.

[@saffrons12]

I have the Signature palette and it’s my go-to everyday matte neutral look. However, I am exactly the gal who loves bougie packaging and lives in the “a light wash”, “single shadow”, “subtle enhancement” kind of eyeshadow world who VBB was clearly marketing to. So you pegged that dead-on. I love the liners and the lid lustres too!

[@Kayce62]

I’m right there with you. I love the VB’s signature palette, bronzer brick, lippies and eyeliners. And although I can appreciate bold Indy brands and astral shadows like those in the Pat McGrath line, I don’t wear them. Natasha Denona’s retro is about as wild as I get. 😁

[@TheEmilyFoolery]

Congrats on 50k subs! Been here since your no buy year and so lovely to see the channel thriving 🤩

[@meganweber3125]

The clasp on the eyeshadow palette reminds me of old Hollywood cigarette cases that rich people carried. Super specific, but genuinely my vision

[@MsViolettEyes]

WAAAYYY off topic but wanted to mention the Sun Magazine. It’s is a nonprofit, ad-free magazine that publishes personal essays, short stories, and poetry. It ‘uses words and photographs to evoke the splendor and heartache of being human.’ Seems like a good fit for your writing. I’m a newish subscriber/patron so please excuse if you are already well aware of it and this is old news to you. Thanks for all your hard work to make your channel my favorite above all! ❤️

[@HannahLouisePoston]

I quite enjoy The Sun! It's run out of Chapel Hill, which is where I went to undergrad. Glad you love it too! But I've never mentioned it on YT so you would have had no way of knowing, I always appreciate a rec

[@jenniferro10]

I get The Sun! I pass it around with a few friends and then we abandon it at coffee shops all over the Upper Peninsula.

[@mollyyyy6677]

This might be my favorite look I’ve seen on you. Those Italian movie star vibes are everything! I’d love to see a Dior brand review from you next.

[@zitapuskas2772]

This brand is definitely not in my budget but it was really satisfying to watch your review. You can review products in a way that doesn't feed into the thirst for buying the products.

[@joanie-music]

I love how informative, honest, totally fair and observational you are!!! You are amazing!!! I too love the Bronze Kajol! So great to line my eyes for depth without the harsh contrast a normal brown color would give... LOVE IT!!

[@shuyinyu1324]

🥺 maybe stick blush showdown / comparison for a future video? With the cheeky posh, atelier, the colourpop one if you still have it, and the new Em Cosmetics So Soft in Pearl Tea (or one of the multiplay / bronzers as a blush), because I'd love to see your take on the new brown-ish Em formula.

[@sloanerickman6219]

HANNAH! If you love bronze please please try sea gray as well. OH MY. It is the MOST unique, pigmented, reflected, like gun metal/silver color. I purchased bronze and sea grey together during Black Friday and I am equally obsessed with both. They are truly stunning!!!

[@malloryp8341]

Hannah, you inadvertently sold me on the eyeshadow brick! As you were saying how sheer and dusky the shadows were, I was thinking sign me up! I love sheer bronze tones for a one shadow eye look.

[@littlewingedzebra]

respecting and appreciating what something can do instead of being upset that it doesn't live up to your expectations is quite a good philosophy to apply to lots of things, including yourself and your loved ones. edit: also, if anyone's looking for a wash of color, high quality semi-fancy eyeshadows, i really love the ones from Aveda.

[@annalafleur6135]

Oh, the bronzer is the best item from victoria beckham beauty. I have tried the eyeshadow palette, the single lid Lustre, the lipstick and the blush. The bronzer is such a good color and blends perfectly. It is one of my all time favorite bronzers period. The lipstick is very nice, too.

[@tarastrickland7237]

I’ve wanted to try this brand for so long! That eyeshadow palette is stunning and exactly what I was hoping it’d be, easy to throw on a shade or two and good to go. I wish they’d make some more shimmer ones with the same colors from the matte ones!

[@henryhenderson4752]

"...that feel like you stay where y-where..you...put....them-that feel like YOU stay?-..." This moment brought me so much joy, like, what even happened there. It's just after 24min in: so glad it made the cut.

[@radiantlyshana]

I absolutely love how you explained the textures of these shadows ompared to the other formulas in your collection. It's how I feel every time someone tells me to buy a BH Cosmetics palette lol. I'm always disappointed and eventually give them away to friends...they just don't stack up next to PM and ND and Clionadh

[@rachelmarch1125]

That eyeliner formula is the best formula I’ve found as well and that bronze color is the color of my dreams. The black ash and navy are also perfection.

[@nailinthefashion]

i'd love for you to compare your existing liners to a cheapy peapy fave of mine, the nyx epic wear liner sticks-- i like when my eyeshadow smudges and creases, it looks lived in, so i usually opt for a cheaper, bolder formula like those. i'm living my italian movie star life too; blended with the wizard whomst applied liner with the soot of a matchstick. i'm finding my balance. i've found auric is way too foolproof and easy to blend for a casually messy lewk so i amp it up a touch. i wholeheartedly believe you should attempt to find a suitable dupe of the vibe of bronze in the formula i mentioned, alongside trying the shade berry goth. it's a mystifyingly deep aubergine with violet shimmer and i know that sounds like a lot, but if you treat it like a neutral, you'll understand the magique of the nuance, HLP! the way it compliments olive but doesn't read halloween witch-- BEYOND it's been my favourite thing i've bought for about a year, and unlike other products that would go bad by now, all it needs is a sharpen to refresh! let's have a smudge party, please~

[@leanneanderson562]

The eyeliners are SO freaking good. I will never go back to using any other one. I love them so so so much.

[@CJM279]

How would you describe them? I thought about picking one up but I’d to know how they work for someone else.

[@leanneanderson562]

@@CJM279 I would describe them as extremely malleable & designed (in my opinion) to be moved around and smoked out. I usually put liner down near my eyelashes and smudge it with a brush, making the outer corner of my eye the smudgiest & thickest part of the line. They are incredibly soft like Hannah said, but that’s part of their magic. If you are looking for a eyeliner you can manipulate I’d definitely recommend getting this one. If you like a more defined liner, I’d choose something else. I’ve used up my black one and am currently using up my brown one before repurchasing. The nice thing with the brown one is that on a day I want it to be darker, I can mix a bit of black eyeshadow with it to deepen it too. I hope this helps! :) Merry Christmas!

[@clairedaniels3292]

I’m really wanting to get Chiffon! Is it glittery? I want it because I want it to be more sheeny, and if it’s glittery I know I’m not going to get much use out of it. Wish it was in Sephora so I could go swatch it

[@wiredayan9719]

On black friday i got Mink and Tea Rose, with the brown eyeliner…. And i love every single one of them… loving the poshiness of it all!!!

[@kristinabayer3280]

I love love love the shade of the lip and the blush on you!

[@naeriface]

i greatly enjoy my smoky eye brick in signature, probably because its all mattes (that formula has a more buildable and less sheer wash-y look it seems). i think the color story of silk is very alluring but all the shades being shimmery washes gives me very tom ford quad vibes which just isn't my personal aesthetic, but i know is deeply loved in the luxury beauty natural look community. i will say the mink single shadow is one of if not THE best smokey eye in a little jar... now i feel i need those liners tho

[@Portia1416]

You have to try her lip color in Pose. It’s a beautiful grungy taupe with a bit of mauve. So beautiful!!! Not your typical run of the mill lip shade.

[@coreym.9125]

Listening to you talk about the blush makes me want a brand to collab with you on a line of blushes. I have no doubt an eyeshadow palette would be amazing but no one describes blushes like HLP❤️❤️

I love VB Beauty 🧡 I really loved your review! I think the shadows really shine in the matte formula, particularly in the eye brick Tweed. I will often use Tweed with Silk over top, and that’s when they truly shine. Additionally, the eye liner is pure magic in all the colors! I have it in bronze, cocoa and the wine color. They are creams and amazing to work with. I can always get a perfect wing with them! Sending love!

[@JaimieAppleton]

[@MoonlitSunflower]

The eyeshadow looks unimpressive but I like the cream blush, based on what you're saying. I feel that it gives you a flattering flush. If I personally were using a cream blush, I would want something that is difficult to mess up or over do. A shimmery eyeliner sounds eh to me but that's just because every shimmery eyeliner I've used is unimpressive.

[@alex_gallo_]

Wow thanks for review I was always interested in VBs’ makeup but no one I knew and was familiar with showed any interest in her brand so I was not able to make up my mind about my purchase. It was really helpful. These eyeshadows look like that kind of formula “I need instruction manual” to me. For 55$ I expect at least some kind of dimension from at least one shade out of 4. That Kajal… uuuu I totally understand. It will stay on my radar for sure. Same goes for that lipstick - the way you described it sounds like everything I ever wanted. Again thanks and have a nice day everyone.

[@Loralarify]

I got the Posh cheek stick in PLAYGROUND and that one is that browny tone you were talking about that you would have liked. I was really surprised and delighted .. it gives a natural warmth without being orangy or ugly on the skin but instead gives life. At least that is my experience. I am a light med skin tone much like you.

[@JustFionaGallagher]

It's so interesting to me how my relationship with makeup has changed over this pandemic. I have always used makeup as art rather than a daily ritual. Now, given that i work as a masked peon of the dystopia all day, makeup is almost meaningless to me. Spending money on makeup seems absurd when all i want is to get home, remove my mask, and wash my face immediatly. Just me, changing as the world changes. Considering the absurdity of luxury during these dark times. Love your voice as always! I just can't help but wonder.... what comes Next.

[@lillyh3447]

I'm sorry you're feeling so unimportant and uninspired 💕 personally I still wear colourful editorial makeup under my mask, just because it makes me happy to be artistic in that way. I hope you find something that feels meaningful soon, and that these dark times come to an end for all of us 🌱

[@hausacat]

The absurdity is how our governments and media have worked in tandem to create fear, and so many falling under the spell. Trust in your own senses. Not what you are told via a screen. Two weeks to flatten the curve, right?

[@Cicelyize]

That soft smoky look is gorgeous on you! I would definitely keep it 😊 I doubt I will ever buy anything from this brand but I have a lot of appreciation for eyeshadow that is relatively sheer and has an elegant satin finish. Many Asian brands work like that and I much prefer to the pigmented ++ standard western make up. I often find it too flat matte or too chunky glittery 🤷‍♀️

[@juliapetal5590]

I'm very curious as to how much the lip product has in common with the Glossier Ultralip! The Ultralip is much softer, I imagine, and wears down more quickly in the bullet, and I imagine feels thicker on the lips, but I'm curious about how similar the effect is and whether or not my guesses are correct. I'm so happy for you and your new liner love

[@scottycaplan8122]

What a great video ! I waited to receive my own VB purchases to whatch your review and I totally recognise my reaction watching and listning to yours, especially with the palette ! I choosed the Tweed one; particularly for the colour Oxblood.....and what a disappointment !!!! I have been waiting for so long to purchase this palette, because of the price (expensive even on sale). And here I was, on Christmas day in front of a color that would swatch on my finger but not on my skin and didn't work with any of my brushes ! At the end, I had to scratch it with a very short, flat, stiffe brush to make it work ! And I have to pack a bunch of shadow so that it shows. The rest of the shadowes were good but they looked almost the same on my lids, especialy without Oxblood (a deep aubergine). BUT, just like you in the video, I have learned how to use this palette (with the right brushes) and what to expect of it. And it really grown in me. The mattes are so velvety. I can achieve my favorite look of the moment with the addition of a bit of a grey: a 1920's silent movie star(ish). I am very into the work of the photograph Sarah Moon, these days. I have always loved the makeup of her models without daring to try it on me. I love the lipstick : I choosed the colour Pose. It's a Taupe and I think it would look gorgeous on you. I have Onyx too and it is beautiful: night and day ! Hope you and your dear ones have a very soft beginning of year

[@rbaker368]

The satin Kajal initially smudged and migrated all around my eyes. It was serious Red Panda vibes with the Bordeaux colour 🤦🏻‍♀️ However, after watching Sali Hughes talke about this product (she loves it) I learned that I must leave it on my eye for one minute BEFORE smudging it out. And then it stays in place. Also, I don't put it on my lower lash line. It adds an expensive, subtle and chic touch, and I love it now. But it took a while to work out how to use it in a way that worked for my (clearly oily!) eye lids!

[@daniphelan9200]

Hi Han , your experience mirrors my own , especially with the shadows, I opted for the tweed colour way. While I came to appreciate it for what it is eventually, I did pass it along as it wasn’t getting the love within my own collection. The liners are so special, I have now replaced my old liners with VB’s . The shadow pots are also beautiful, mink and tea rose were my choices, seeing onyx in your video has ignited a need within 😰 I held off on the blush as I have some westman sticks Im in love with 😌

I love VB but I’d love to see you review a more budget friendly option, Uoma by Sharon C line at Walmart. Specifically the foundation. Also, my favorite VB eyeshadow is the brick in Tweed. And if I want to grunge it up I’ll pair it with the Mink shadow.

[@christinaserna5776]

I feel like the lipsticks are good, but it only works because it's sheer and it's hard for it not being flattering. I have tried the matte eye bricks and they're like, "I work in an office where no one wears makeup and I want to and they're something I can just throw on", so everything you said makes sense. I have been afraid to get the blush because it's so expensive, but creme blush gets eaten by face and now I want to try it given your description. The eyeliner is holy grail!!! And I am working hard not to buy bronze because I have a lot of eyeliner, but this guarantees that I probably will sometime.
