Liz Earle Makeup Range

10th June 2012 : Beauty : Reviews : New in : Make-up

As many of you may know already, I am a huge fan of Liz Earle. Their hot cloth cleanser is the one skincare product I am always repurchasing, I think i’ve got through around 8 bottles of the stuff! You can read my review of the Liz Earle skincare HERE but for now, i’m going to talk about a new addition to Liz Earle, a makeup line!

It was only right that after launching their sheer skin tint, they would then follow with even more makeup!  I was super excited to see the collection as I knew that in true Liz style, it would be exceptionally good quality and I was not disappointed.

I’m going to try and sum up my thoughts on the makeup items that I’ve tried as best I can without boring you or making you want to gauge out your eyeballs (how pleasant). 

Natural Finish Loose Powder   

£19.50*

I am super fussy when it comes to powder. I don’t like my skin to look matte, and so I like something to have reflective light properties or that gives a healthy glow. Although this powder didn’t give me as much of a glow as i’d have liked (let’s face it,  if I want a glow I can use a highlighter) I really love this powder. I actually find that it works really well with the sheer skin tint as that can be very dewy (I’m talking top of the dewy scale here). There is a whopping 12g of product in this plastic jar, so this is sure to last you a long time and in terms of pricing, works out cheaper than my beloved Bare Escentuals. This powder contains vitamin e, borage and avacado oils, so benefits the skin as well as just sitting pretty on it. I’ve not worn this powder alone, so I can’t comment too much on overall coverage, but as far as setting other foundations goes, this works a treat. 

Natural Glow Bronzer

£19.50*

Now, the first thing you will notice, as far as bronzers go, is that this is quite a pricey one! However, the quality of this bronzer is perfect. It has a soft consistency, is easy to blend and leaves a very natural bronzed colour on the face. The powder itself is not overly pigmented, but this is why I like it. They have designed this specifically for a natural look. If you are someone who is a little scared of going OTT on the bronzed front, this will be perfect for you. It comes in one shade so far, so this may not be ideal for you darker skinned ladies but being a pale missy myself, I love it and have been reaching for it quite a lot recently. 

Healthy Glow Powder Blush 

£16.50*

Again, this is quite high up on the pricing scale, although nowhere near the price tag of my beloved Nars blushers (£21 *gulp*). This blush is also very smooth and soft and easy to blend and work with, and again, offers a natural flushed finish. The blush is available in 7 shades, the one I have is Rose 04. Although this isn’t hugely pigmented, it gives such a pretty colour, and just like they marketed, very natural. 

Precision Brush

£13*


This was probably the one thing I was least excited about. I own a lot of precision brushes (mostly targeted for use with concealer) but they say that this brush is multi purpose. It can be used for face, lips, eyes and brows. It has a great thin, and rounded tip which would make use for all the above things very easy. They currently have 3 brushes, the one that most appeals to me is the powder brush, which looks really nice. They are all made with 100% man made fibers and all have a clear acrylic handle, which I really liked. It’s stylish and different from any other brushes i’ve seen. 

Sheer Lip Gloss

£13.50*

This is the only product where I feel the price isn’t quite justified. I’m not the biggest fan of lipgloss, but I do know that some of my favourite glosses, cost me in the region of £7 from the High Street. Had this been more around the £10 mark, I think I would have been slightly more inclined to purchase one myself. The glosses are quite sheer in order to give a very natural finish on the lips, which I know for a lot of people, is something they would choose over something with far more pigmentation. One thing I do like about this gloss, is that it doesn’t feel too sticky on the lips. They also include avacado oils and shea butter to nourish the lips, which is a nice added bous. The colour I received is Quince 09, which although looks quite orangey (a colour you know I love) is more of a neutral dark toffee red once on the lips. 

Swatches

Overall, I was really impressed with the quality of the Liz Earle makeup line. I don’t think their target market is young teenage girls however, and I can imagine that it will more suited to the more mature women after a very subtle, natural and youthful look. I personally loved the blush, bronzer and loose powder and would recommend them to anyone after something a little more natural. I like the packaging, it’s not edgy or overly exciting, but it works and it represents the brand well. I also love that the compacts have mirrors, very handy for on the go touch ups.  I think I would have liked the lipgloss a little more if it was in a more neutral shade and a little less pricey. I do really want to try out a few more shades of the blush though, or even purchase a cream blush as they too look really interesting.

Have you tried anything from the Liz Earle makeup line? Anything that stands out to you?

    When I think of Liz Earle I think brilliant skincare. I totally get your comment on the audience its aimed at these products look like the type my mum would love but I am afraid I cant really justify the prices yet until they have been established a little more in the world of makeup.

    I'd love to try the loose powder by Liz Earl actually, their skincare range is amazing so I might have to splash out £20 for it! :) x

  13. Phoebe

    I think the bronzer looks good and I really want to try the light reflecting concealer as it looks like the Touche Éclat but with a lower price! So far I haven't found any reviews on it though!

  21. Olivia

    If the bronzer was a bit cheaper, I'd be more inclined to try it. I'm quite intrigued because being pale also, I never like to go over the top with bronzer so tend not to wear it.
    Great summary of the products :)

  22. nicola

    Liz Earle is unfortunately simply too pricey for me as I'm a student with no job, but I would love to be able to try their products – great review! :) xx

  41. Amy

    I bought the blusher in 02 Blossom and although I do agree with you about the products being targeted towards more mature women, I think the quality of the blusher and the colour range for that particular product is fantastic!
