Lisa Eldridge Liquid Silk (Thalia, Gaia) & Fawn Palette | bonus Chanel Blush & Hermes Lipstick

I figured we can also test out one of the new Chanel blushes which I bought in the shade Rose Radiant and of course the gorgeous limited edition lipstick from Hermes in the shade Beige Doblis.
Also wanted to make it clear that I do love the look I created with Fawn despite my small qualms with the palette overall.

Mercurial with a brown base is another level of pretty, Mariam thank you for the inspiration ❤

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

Thank you for posting again. I enjoy your deep dives so much. Honestly, a thorough product review is preferable as far as I’m concerned. Several products combined in a long format review is perfect. I am glad you are feeling better ❤

[@lydiakirkham3414]

I'm glad you're happy with your purchases 🥰 I skipped theses for now. The fawn palette on it's own looks like a beautiful 'nude' yet sparkly palette on you!

[@donnamoore9898]

Now this is way more up my alley. I love this, all of it. I would enjoy and use this a lot. I am pacing myself though. I want to see what other brands bring to the table for holiday before I make my decision. On the top of my list is a Burberry holiday palette, I feel like Burberry, VBB, LE are all very similar and possibly use the same manufacture/lab. If Burberry don’t give us another holiday palette I will probably buy another LE palette. I love how these eyeshadows wear throughout the day.

I can confirm tha nothing lasts on my eyelids (hooded+a bit oily) without primer, but these liquid silks did not budge for 10+ hours!

[@mapleleaf1956]

This gives me hope for the liquid silk! I have the same difficulty with hooded + oily. Glad you had a good experience with it!

[@mariabroberg8887]

I have hooded and oily lids and they creased on my lids, unfortunately. But used with primer they had great holding power.

[@mapleleaf1956]

@@mariabroberg8887 thank you. That’s good to know. The liquid lurex crease terribly on me unless I build a rock solid base so I’ve been cautious about these - not withstanding the claims.

[@mariabroberg8887]

@@mapleleaf1956 Yeah, same! Actually the Lurex have the best staying power of all eyeshadows I have used with only primer (no powder), but without it, they crease. The silk I had the best luck with primer and then a minuscule dusting of powder on top.

[@mapleleaf1956]

@@mariabroberg8887 I’m glad I’m not the only one! The reviews of lurex were so good for others but for me 🤷‍♀️.

[@mapleleaf1956]

You made a very good case for the use of the fawn palette: travel, on rushed mornings and as a good neutral base for other sparklers that will be the star of the show. I bought it for the same reasons and it has been meeting those needs form me. It’s so easy to grab and store.

[@adrian-rx8rg]

I’ve been torturing over which shade(s) to get since the launch of the liquid silks😭 I also love Lisa Eldridge’s matte shadows, especially her velvet mattes. So much so I think I might wait for the other two palettes and build an all velvet palette with one of them and some choice singles… anyway gorgeous looks all around, I wasnt sold on Gaia but you definitely convinced me on it that second look was truly inspired! So happy to see two Mariam uploads, I do also love the quint formula from PML so v excited about the holiday mega mthrshp this year I have to admit🫢🫢

[@vwiccy]

The silk liquid eyeshadows are really amazing! I’m shocked at how wonderful the formula is - I usually have trouble with liquid eyeshadows bc I always think they look a a bit crinkly on me if I’m not careful - but LE wasn’t kidding when she said she did something special to this formula - it’s so thin and smoothing and looks so great after many hours of wear - I’m just amazed - and it’s matte and still looks fantastic! And so easy to use for me - I got the light colors so now I want the darker colors - and thank you for idea of using them as a base for a sparkle on the lid - the smoothing of the base with a sparkle is going to be so easy to do and so beautiful!

[@Cicelyize]

The look with Gaia and mercurial is beautiful 😍 Also loving the Hermes lipstick!

[@ems_h.eartnotes]

Loved the looks you created. That mercurial shade over the dirty yellowish brown was inspired, Mariam

[@ems_h.eartnotes]

Ooh that's a really beautiful blush shade 😍

[@mlcarv]

Hooded eyes with dry/normal eyelids here… these shadows stay all day. No creasing. I apply thin layers with a brush. I use them on their own or with a sparkly shade on the mobile eyelid for a sparkle of color.

[@DeliciaTrini]

I’ve never tried Lisa E. However since last Vega palette, I’ve been tempted. Now this new Fawn palette …. It looks beautiful on you!

[@leecoiner3293]

The liquid silk color definitely didn't make you look sick and worked beautifully with the Chanel blush. I had somehow missed this Chanel blush release, but I may need to pick it up. I love the color and texture!

[@africke744]

Hi Mariam. I hope you're feeling much better now. I have Phoebe, whose colour is close to "Taboo", but it smoothes my lids beautifully (I'm 57). It doesn't budge, but that's not a big problem for me generally. I wore it with Jubilee on top and, wow! 🤩 Best wishes, Anne

[@nidiadoherty5405]

I’m so sorry you were sick! I’m glad you’re better. I wondered what kept you after your congress. As much as I stan Lisa, none of these are calling me. I also thought Fawn was too repetitive in the subtle brown shades, though I have heard that White Tie is just stunning. I don’t know if I need matte liquid shadows… but maybe if these things go on sale. I just picked up Muse because it went on sale, and I had no intention of getting it before! lol. I love that Chanel blush on you. I haven’t picked any of them up, but I have the duo berry/pink from the summer collection I love, and I just ordered the peach/gold one. That will have to tide me over for now. I do love these Hermes lipsticks so much. I picked up both of the mattes, though I think Rouge Nappa looks better on me than the beige one. I think I can pull it off with a lipliner! It feels amazing on the lips at any rate. You’re right about the luxe factor with them for sure.

[@RoseOfMadina]

I agree on what you said about Lisa Eldridge! The shades seem so dull to me... indeed, I hope they go on a sale, so perhaps I will be persuaded to try. Or if she adds new shades!

[@ivaja2393]

I ❤ this release from LE...its exactly my taste...easy to use, beautiful smooth "boring" formulas .....super me for my everyday ..( I am boring in my eye make up as have very small deep set eyes, so I play with just lipstick colors...that I can do wild 🤩)

[@RoseOfMadina]

Your second eye look makes me want to purchase gaia and sorcery!

[@verenaweisz1713]

Hello gorgeous! You made my day with another and this time long video 😊 I really love a the looks! I bought the palette and two liquids. Right now I'm reaching more for the liquids, always with a primer because I'm used to. I like the palette, I think I should have skipped this one. Right now I'm totally into cool toned monochromatic looks, preferably brown. And I'm a sucker for beige blush. On my hunt for a true beige I found True Harmony from Mac and I fell in love woth my MAC blushes again

[@tigermilkkkk2199]

True harmony is soooo beautiful!!!! really glad I got that shade:) can I ask then...you do find the Fawn palette to be not quite cool enough? I was worried about the tones being too warm for my current preferences...I wonder if mixing with my Vega palette mattes could help to make the tones more cool/my speed...

[@verenaweisz1713]

@@tigermilkkkk2199 Hey! The Fawn for me is pretty neutral, but leaning more towards warm than cool. A pretty palette indeed, but I don't reach for this one a lot like I do with Vega. Right now for my vibe I'm going for she's not cool enough and compared to what I like she may look warm to me...I actually use on a daily Mothership I.

[@mapleleaf1956]

So interesting! I find Fawn leans a little cooler than I expected. I wonder if it is affected a lot by one’s undertones. It’s definitely warmer than vega (which I love) but supernaturally and Dorian definitely take on a very cool appearance on me. I’m a neutral undertone.

[@verenaweisz1713]

@@mapleleaf1956 absolutely! I'm a natural undertone too. Vega is my absolute favorite. Swatched side by side, Supernatuarl and Dorian lean a little warm compared to Moonwirl and Lamp Black.

[@mapleleaf1956]

@@verenaweisz1713 totally agree. Moonswirl is one of the best shades ever. Supernova and now white tie are perfect inner corner shades for me.

[@margienoire7464]

Beautiful eye look!

[@isabelab6851]

I am in love with the Chanel blush! I will need to see if I can find it! Still testing the liquid shadows so far so good. I got 4 except the rose one because it was sold out. But I do want it.

[@diamarieful]

I feel like I could play Mariam bingo - if I hear 'terracotta', especially bronze-y terracotta or rosy terracotta, I know it is going to be a Mariam shade! Or 'rosewood', especially if the word 'gorgeous' is anywhre nearby :D I love that chanel blush. I am a couple of shades to the cooler side of you, so the Lisa Eldridge liquid release was too warm for me (except Ione, but I prefer brown taupes, I find purply ones make me look tired). I will probably get one of the browns from the Fawn palette too swap for the French Grey from the Vega Palette. French Grey is too cool even for me! I think I like grey or brown but French Grey doesn't know which one it is :D A darker neutral brown would turn Vega into a more versatile travel palette for me as it would be great for deepening the crease and using as a brown liner. The pinky coral and the warmest light brown matte in Fawn are just not for me... I am tempted by the other shades, but as you say, they are not super different so it feels harder to justify compared to Vega and Sorcery, which I also own and love. But on you the colours in Fawn are wonderful - just right as a neutral palette. I agree with you though that there is duplication with the two brown and four mattes weren't necessary, and that the palette would have been better with a more eye catching sparkle shade in it.

[@scarlet7658]

Йеейй, две видеа! Happiness for me 🎉

[@mariabroberg8887]

I got Ione and I have so much pink in my skin it cancelled the mauve in it. Beautiful color. I’m curious about Thalia and the Fawn palette but it will be a later buy.

[@diamarieful]

Also I have to say I've found Lisa's latest releases disappointing - I guess my tastes are out of fashion as someone who loves a fab red lipstick, or a sparkly eye. But the colours are all so neutral and the finishes are sheer (like the baume embrace line) or matte or subtle (like the Fawn palette). I would have loved to see something a bit different - perhaps the liquid silk range could have included a colour like a steel blue, or she could have added some new shades to her lucent lipsticks or liquid lurex eyeshadows while she was at it. I would love to see her include a red in her lucent line that is the equivalent of something like Duchess or Jazz from the velvet line.

[@RoseOfMadina]

Oeh girl, share the code for lookfantastic please!

[@kateboy-rx6jt]

I'd like to try the liquid eyeshadows but I'll wait for LE to come out with more colours. They're all too warm or too cool. I'd like a light to medium toned neutral shade that I can wear with warm or cool tones.

[@donnamoore9898]

I want to try the liquid silk eyeshadows but are they easy to remove. I don’t want a product that I need to tug at the delicate skin around my eyes to remove. That is my only concern really, that they adhere to much? Other than that they look amazing. Thanks Mariam.

[@DreamingCimderella]

I remove them with an oil cleanser (I use the Body shop camomile cleanser in the tin), it's very easy this way, the melt away.

[@africke744]

I haven't noticed any difference to my usual, powder, shadows. 🙂

[@RoseOfMadina]

Fawn, to me, doesn't come across as a well curated palette. Because there are so many browns that feel repetitive. Neutral, everyday eyeshadows, I understand, yes. But this seems not well thought out. Perhaps added a brown that has a purplish undertone, instead of 2 similar dark browns. There are 6 shades in the palette, why not have 3 lighter and 3 darker shades. A matte cream shadow instead one of the redundant browns?

[@elainebines6803]

LE products I've not been impressed with. Her counter in London already looking tired. Nope, the foundation awful. The lipstick broke in half. Just not for me

[@minazohradalagerjensen]

Oh the new LE palette is just boring enough for me😂🎉🎉
