I bought the cocoa and ash kajals. Then I bought bronze and fig. Then I bought the waterline one. With the past sale I picked up the new copper color. I also thought I would never pay top dollar for a freakin' eyeliner, but here we are.
😂 I am also pretty obsessed with VB kajal eyeliner. I think it is the best eyeliner I have ever used. The new shadow copper is current on the way. They somehow released a lot of new shadows this year I almost cannot follow.
VB eyeliner tip: when you tightline wait 10 seconds before you bonk and you won't transfer to your waterline. These are my holy grail eyeliners. I highly recommend the metallic shade bronze or the silver. Both can easily be smudged before they set down for a 1 and done eye look. As you smudge the finish/color/undertone changes creating a multi dimensional eye look. 'Not Fit For Print' has great reviews to demonstrate the product's application, performance and full range of colors.
UK makeup artist Hannah Martin used the VB black kajal and smudged over her eye lid then layered VB velvet lid lustre over this and it was a stunning combo! 👍🏽😊
VB has become one of my total favorite brands of the last few years. I love how edited it is, and how much time they take to release new products/shades especially in this oversaturated overwhelming market. I have onyx and mink, gorgeous. And a few kajals. just gorgeous quality.
Amanda, the Velvet eyeshadow looks beautiful on you. I have been eyeing that one, but I'm not sure it would flatter me quite as much. I'd love to see a dedicated video from you about the lid lustres with more colors, and also for you to try Victoria Beckham's shimmery eyeliners. I'm interested in the color similar to velvet and the one that isn't out yet in the minky taupe color.
You have to get the VBB eyeliner in olive! It’s amazing, stays on all day & looks fabulous with the Velvet lid lustre, the Dior Khaki neutrals & the Natasha Denona mini gold, I’m loving all the greens 😂❤
The liners work absolutely perfectly as a cream shadow. You just draw it on a little, smudge it out and you’re done. And the colours 😲. Get ALL the colours! No one else does the same colours. I believe the lip gloss, even the clear one, kind of slightly improves the look of your lips. I’ve ordered it in the hopes that what I’ve seen is true. You can just wipe away the liner from the water line by the way. Once it dries down it doesn’t transfer again. Oh if you were thinking about the bronzer brick - yes yes yes. Do it! Soooo good. It’s another one of her winners.
Amanda, given your fondness for all the greens, you should check out Terra Moon”s hot spiced cider. A warm brown base with a very wet looking olive green- gold. It is the most beautiful eyeshadow I own. I really like VB velvet, but the Terra Moon shadow is so much more.
I think making separate videos for skincare, makeup, and other categories is great! Love your look! Anyway, I've been using VBB products for a few years now. I love their packaging more than some of their products. I love their little Lid Lustre but some of the colors tend to crease on my lids. You have to really set them in a certain way for it to not crease throughout the day...so that price point, I wish I didn't have to work for it to work on me. However, their colors are so pretty! I have every color now except for the blue and black one. As for their eyeliner, once they are on, they are on! However, they are hard to work with because I find them too creamy to apply and it gets everywhere if you're not careful. The product that is easy to work with and performs well from start to finish is their new highlighter. So gorgeous.
Hi! It’s been a while since I’ve had time for beauty videos. It’s lovely to see your pretty face, Amanda!! ❤ I am a huge fan of Victoria Beckham, but I’ve been disappointed by some of her makeup. I got the lid luster when it first came out and felt like the lasting power was less than I wanted. The color glosses are so beautiful! I had bikini and tan lines over the summer and they were among my all time favorite lip products… but they went bad and developed an awful smell in a fairly short period of time. 🤢I do love the brightening eyeliner for the lower waterline. I just ordered the mascara too. Im waiting for the khaki color to get restocked in the Kajal liner because im a green lover too!
That green gold color is having a moment. I wish someone would compare it to the similar shade in the new Lisa Eldridge Liquid Lurex formula (i think it is Daphne?)… I have the Violette_fr Yeux Paint in Scarabee d’Or and love the color so much but wanted to try other formulas.
I enjoyed seeing a range of VBB products as I have dabbled in her range as well lately. The eyeshadows steal the show! I have Velvet, Mink, and Midnight and they are stunning to wear. I enjoy the creaminess of the eyeliners but they transfer to my bottom lashline. I need to work with them some more to determine if they're for me or not. Recently, I purchased her bronzer and the quality of the powder is exceptional! I bought the lightest shade and the bronzer and contour shades apply and build beautifully, creating a truly natural look. I plan to get a second shade for the summer months. And yes, the packaging is exquisite.
It's so funny that you mentioned the Rare Beauty blush. When you were swatching, applying, and describing the consistency of the VB one, I kept thinking to myself, it's the same issue I have with the Rare Beauty ones. Which is a shame, such pretty colors. I can't make that consistency work on my skin. It patches and rubs away the more I try to make it work. 😭😭😭 BTW **wipes away tears for New Moon. We will never find anything quite like that. Legend, GOAT. ❤️
I bought three of the lid lustres (Starlight, Tea Rose and Velvet). I have one lid lustre, one blush - the same as in the video, I haven’t the same problem as you - and two kajals (cocoa and bronze) since before. Yesterday I wore Starlight with Tom Ford Naked Bronze cream eyeshadow and cocoa and they were stunning together. Not entirely sure about Velvet, on me it was really sparkly and less satiny than the other colors.
I prefer separate categories, but do whatever is easiest for you! I was worried that I would love the velvet on you as much as I thought I would 😂 Now I have to buy it!! And possibly the smokey colour, a few eyeliners, and those lippies...😍🤦🏼♀️ Very much looking forward to your green shadow comparison video - have been eyeing off the hourglass and bodyography green colours, but it sounds like this is your pick 👌 Thanks for being our guinea pig Amanda 🥰
I got these Lusters also in 4 shades, Chanel's New Moon (on ur rec), Bodyography's Glitter Pigments in multiple shades (used to be my absolute faves), Touch in Sol's Metallist pigments (also, top of the list for this formula), and Tarte's pot shadows... I'm a fan of this type of formula and one shadow looks... I feel that VB's Lid Lusters swatch so nice, have great colors and have gorgg packaging yet, on the eyes, they are unremarkable in comparison to other similar formulas... and the glitter fallout by the end of the day is cringe... I just got Moira's new Starshow Shadow Pots also in 4 diff shades and I'm amazed... this quality is insane but also, the price is almost unbeatable.. I've been playing with them in the past couple of days and I'm in love... maybe u can check them out.. I think u'll like them too..
Your pal Kackie loves the green metallic eyeshadow from VB. But I think you need to drag her to a drug or discount store again - she's complaining about not being able to find an eye liner or pencil that is olive green, not Christmas green or teal. There's Milani, Pixi and NYX all offering golden/mossy greens. She's such a snob, but I love her anyway! And you! You're both so thorough and deep, each in your own way.
You can fix your straw to your can by putting it inside the metal tab you use to open it :) Put it inside the hole once you turn the tab over the opening of the can, and you shouldn't have the problem anymore :)
I love the lid lusters I have tea rose and onyx, too many other things to buy before I get more vb, but I want more lol, they are great with a brush too, cause I have stubby fingers . It is a fabulous green, wow, the liner is great but the stila is better, I have a lot of krinkles and it's creamier. Wow that brown gloss looks amazing on you. I got her red lipstick and I really need to wear it more. It's such a shame about the blush though. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I prefer best of beauty vids split up by category, but honestly whichever is easiest for you to tackle is always fine. I've been so bummed about not being able to find Chanel New Moon that I'm very intrigued by Tea Rose! Would you say the texture is along the lines of Tarte's shadow pot things?
after you open your soda, you flip that tab back so that it appears to be covering the hole and the circle that’s provided in the tab is where you put your straw in… Yeah I didn’t know this either
So I like the eyeshadows .. pretty but I’m having a hard time seeing the green .. I see gold color only … 🤷🏻♀️I love khaki and olive green normally but I just have never found good olive green shades for lids and liners … any recommendations???
Can I please ask how does the VB lid lustre in Mink compare with Charlotte Tilbury’s hypnotising pop shot in Smoky Quartz? The VB lid lusters do look divineeee
Maybe you'd like to swipe the blush directly onto your cheeks and see if it's good that way also maybe your primer might have affected it just trying to problem solve here
I’m having the same problem with almost all my cream blushes, they just don’t want to stick to my face, I don’t know if it’s texture or hair but seriously I don’t want to have to shave my face just to put on blush!!
Velvet is giving me (discontinued) MAC eyeshadow in Sumptuous Olive vibes. I've been jonesing to find a similar colour to it for a while. I wishlisted a Devinah eyeshadow that's kind of close (Utopian), but I think Velvet may be closer.
Unfortunately if you see a mouse in your house it's usually a whole family lol. I HATE mice. Im super afraid of them like in a phobia way. Like I know there's no reason the be afraid they are tiny and can't hurt me. But they just freak me out always have.
Amanda you should smile more 😊 I can see that you try and hide your teeth evening just talking and I just want you to know that I used to do the same. Trust me you are still beautiful!!!!!!!

Appreciate the tip to avoid the eyeliners transferring. I'm going to give that a try!

Loll just watched Kackie talk abt waiting on what you think on these! The wait is no longer😄
You have to get the VBB eyeliner in olive! It’s amazing, stays on all day & looks fabulous with the Velvet lid lustre, the Dior Khaki neutrals & the Natasha Denona mini gold, I’m loving all the greens 😂❤
I have her lid lustre in Mink and while I like it, the urban decay shadow in Lithium is my FAVORITE right now!💕💕 thank you for recommending it👏🏻🎄

I loved your silent reaction to “velvet” 😁 you’re making we wanna buy so many products 😩
i'm obsessed with the eyeliners. I own almost every color.
Yes please do the green eyeshadow video! 💚
The more Best of Beauty videos the better!
Completely agree! Love the category breakdowns
I love how excited and passionate you get about formuals and colours. So fun to watch :)
I love how much you enjoy your makeup and the way you describe the application experience! Is so relaxing to me lol
Thank you for the reference to New Moon by Chanel- I was late to the game on that one and it is so sad it is discontinued
SAME!

UGH I love her lid lustres, they’re so gorgeous. I am currently addicted to her liners and just bought the new jewel tones.
I think making separate videos for skincare, makeup, and other categories is great! Love your look!

You sold me on the Velvet! Hope it looks as good on my medium tone blonde/blue complexion!

Mink is my favorite. I have all the lid lusters. I’ve only tried the lid lusters and eyeliners in her brand and I live them all
I bought 2 of the liners, olive and ash, I love them!
I am tempted to buy 6 more! They are offering a set of six with a free mascara and case at $140.
That green gold color is having a moment. I wish someone would compare it to the similar shade in the new Lisa Eldridge Liquid Lurex formula (i think it is Daphne?)… I have the Violette_fr Yeux Paint in Scarabee d’Or and love the color so much but wanted to try other formulas.

Absolutely beautiful!! I would highly recommend the olive shade in the kajal eye liner - it’s my ride or die (I have similar ton es to you). Enjoy!
I bought Velvet during Black Friday sale based purely on your passion for it. You are correct - it does not disappoint.
Ugh man now I regret not getting Velvet during the sale! That shade looks so beautiful.
omg you have beautiful hair!!
yes to categories for the "best of" videos!
Hi Amanda… I just love these colors on you. You look beautiful.
I ended up getting mink! Wore it yesterday and WOW. so stunning!
Flip the tab around opening on your can. Then, put the straw through the hole in your tab.
I bought three of the lid lustres (Starlight, Tea Rose and Velvet). I have one lid lustre, one blush - the same as in the video, I haven’t the same problem as you - and two kajals (cocoa and bronze) since before.

You should have many more followers; you are much better than other beauty RUclipsrs!
Can you please do a look with the Minx colour as I’ve been debating buying it for ages…
I prefer separate categories, but do whatever is easiest for you!
I was worried that I would love the velvet on you as much as I thought I would 😂 Now I have to buy it!! And possibly the smokey colour, a few eyeliners, and those lippies...😍🤦🏼♀️

How does the shade Mink compare to the Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Quartz or Urban Decay Lithium?
There is more silver/grey tones to Mink from what I can tell but I'd be happy to show off some swatches!
@@AmandaZ please :)
I have Mink, but whenever I use it, by the end of the day there is glitter all over my face. That discourages me from using it.
Ooooh would love an update on the wear experience
Starlight does the same for me
Same! I started to use the pat mcgrath “intensifeyes” it really helps a lot
Have you tried using it with an eye primer?
It holds really well with either glitter glue or on top of Lisa Eldridge liquid lurex shadow

that was one of my first thoughts watching Kackie's video: huh? but NYX and L'Oréal do a great olive one!
🥂
You can fix your straw to your can by putting it inside the metal tab you use to open it :) Put it inside the hole once you turn the tab over the opening of the can, and you shouldn't have the problem anymore :)
I just learned this trick and was going to suggest it as well 🤍
Finally! Been waiting for you to look into this brand ☺️
I love the lid lusters I have tea rose and onyx, too many other things to buy before I get more vb, but I want more lol, they are great with a brush too, cause I have stubby fingers .

Do a video using Mink! I have it and can't figure out ho to wear it
Are the lid lusters good for daytime wear? How about 50+ ladies?
after you open your soda, you flip that tab back so that it appears to be covering the hole and the circle that’s provided in the tab is where you put your straw in… Yeah I didn’t know this either
So I like the eyeshadows .. pretty but I’m having a hard time seeing the green .. I see gold color only … 🤷🏻♀️I love khaki and olive green normally but I just have never found good olive green shades for lids and liners … any recommendations???

Maybe you'd like to swipe the blush directly onto your cheeks and see if it's good that way also maybe your primer might have affected it just trying to problem solve here
Would you suggest tea rose or mink for blue eyes? I cant decide 😫
You make me want to buy it all!!! 😖
I’m having the same problem with almost all my cream blushes, they just don’t want to stick to my face, I don’t know if it’s texture or hair but seriously I don’t want to have to shave my face just to put on blush!!
Have you heard of high frequency to get rid of a mouse? My sister purchased it from Amazon.
Hi Amanda a quick question would you rather buy haus labs lipsticks or merit Or saie lip blurs?
I haven’t tried the haus labs, but the merit lipsticks are some of my favorite ever!
@@AmandaZ thank you Amanda I have my eyes on 1990 from merit
The foundation looks very beautiful! Do you mind sharing which shade you’re using? (We happen to have very similar skintone)
Calico! 🥰
This video felt like just hanging out with a friend
Please compare this lip look to nectar lipstick + mocha gloss by elf
I just got the bronzer in fair.
Thank you
The paper straws do that with sodas for some reason.
