Rainbow Spill

Lisa Eldridge Rainbow Spill Insanely Saturated Lip Colour ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a bright, neon pink-coral with warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which built up to full coverage with less than half of a layer.

The texture was lightweight, thin but not clingy, smooth, and velvety, so the product glided easily across my lips. If you’re familiar with silicone-based face primers, it had a similar glide to it, just for the lips. There was a touch of product that sank into my deeper lip lines but wasn’t noticeable from a normal viewing distance. I also recommend exfoliating lips prior to applying this shade as it was a bit less forgiving than average of minor imperfections of lip texture. It wore well for five and a half hours, left a very faint stain behind, and was neither drying nor hydrating.

Formula Overview

$36.00/0.12 oz. - $300.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "100% full coverage with a demi-matte finish and weightless feel." It's a silicone-heavy formulation, so it had glide without feeling wet or slippery on the lips. To me, it has more of a velvety feel that's featherweight, thin but not in a clingy, drying kind of way, and goes on without dragging.

The thinner nature of the formula combined with the more matte finish means that exfoliating prior to application is important for best results; this was more noticeable in Rainbow Spill (less forgiving) than Skyscraper Rose (which was more forgiving). They wore between five and six hours on me, left faint stains, and were non-drying to barely hydrating. They had no discernible scent or taste.

Skyscraper Rose

Lisa Eldridge Skyscraper Rose Insanely Saturated Lip Colour ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a rich raspberry with moderate, cool undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had good color coverage in one pass but needed a second layer for full coverage (my lip freckle is peeking through).

The texture was very lightweight, thin without being clingy, and had a velvety slip to it that helped it glide across my lips without tugging but never felt “wet” or slippery on my lips. The color went on evenly and smoothly, and it lasted well for six hours and left a faint stain behind. The formula felt slightly hydrating as my lips felt quite comfortable after wearing it for over six hours.

P.S. — All four shades from the summer launch are sold out. Per Lisa Eldridge, Go Lightly and Love of My Life should be restocked with the Plush True Velvet Lipsticks, which is hopefully in a few weeks–those signed up for the brand’s newsletter will be first to hear about a confirmed date. There hasn’t been a decision made yet on restocking Rainbow Spill and Skyscraper Rose (and keep in mind, if the brand does a restock, the turnaround will be several months).
