What To Shop

I’m always skeptical when I hear about celebrities putting their names to new product lines (often in a totally different category to their day jobs). Like, did they even have anything to do with the production process? Do they even use the products?

This is exactly why I was SO pleasantly surprised the first time I got my hands on Victoria’ Beckham’s makeup line for Estée Lauder a year or so ago at a press day. I’ve used the ‘Morning Aura‘ skin glow ever since, and was totally devastated when the (then) limited edition illuminating creme completely sold out within a week.

But (luckily for me) it was just THAT good that they had to bring it back. And with it, has come a whole new collection of damn amazing makeup – from Eye Foil, to an ultra-pigmented highlighter, to lip gloss that sparkles like twinkling city lights, to Eye Ink Matte Eyeliner and beyond.

Each ‘look’ from the collection was inspired by a major fashion city (NYC, LA, Paris, London & Miami!) and has a cool-girl edge without looking overly ‘done’. Oh, and the sexy, sleek black and gold packaging is exactly the kind you want to be pulling out of your handbag for touch ups at dinner (or anywhere else for that matter – mine went all over NYC as you can in this video!).

This collection – like the last – is selling out super quickly (because, trust me, aside from the fact that it’s aligned with ‘Victoria Beckham’, it’s just really, really good product), but you can still get your hands on it if you know where to look…

If you’re all about trying before buying, Sephora, Myer (Aus) and David Jones (Aus) have it, or there are a bunch of places online (e.g. Adore Beauty) you can still get my personal faves… see below!
