Do I want (need?) three Victoria Beckham eyeliners?

It’s a very good discount indeed - three for £60.

At the same time - it’s a heck of a lot to spend on three eyeliners! 😁

Are they really as amazing as the reviews say they are?!

No. Order three Avon glimmersticks instead at around £6 each (I haven't tried the Victoria B ones as I'm way too tight to pay that much for an eyeliner)

Lndnmummy · 27/11/2023 12:19

Yes, you NEED them😬

Scruffington · 27/11/2023 12:19

They're nice eyeliners but I don't think they warrant all the hype. I prefer Urban Decay.

NancyJoan · 27/11/2023 12:19

I had two delivered this morning. So, yes, I think you do.

Scruffington · 27/11/2023 12:20

I notice the price has increased by a third in the last year too!

I just spent £34 including postage on a VB mascara, purely because it’s the only mascara I can find that doesn’t have a particular allergen in it.
My eyes are not red and weeping for the first time in years.
For that reason alone alone I’m feeling well-disposed towards VB and think you should buy the eyeliners.
My normal mascara purchases are £5 and under so it was a big decision for me.

Urban decay FAR superior and on sale on Debenhams online

I always used Avon glimmersticks, but have since found the cheapo Essence roll up even better. And cheaper!

How long will it take you to use up 3 OP? And do you have the 60gbp going spare right now?

(I am newly motivated after being on the having too much thread ,🤭)

Just bought olive one for £22.50 with free p&p . Think cyber Monday deal . I own the cocoa and I love it .

TheQueenofOnyx · 27/11/2023 13:12

Thank you for the tip! I just got one on the cyber Monday deal.

Plumful · 27/11/2023 13:42

Oooo you lot are bad for the bank balance
I’ve been after one for ages. Good deal today.

MarmaladeMaggie · 27/11/2023 13:47

Here’s the link. It’s three for £60.28. The olive looks amazing but I also like the look of Fig and the Smoky Quartz…

I would get Pixi eyeliners instead, they’re really good and less than half the price.

Handovertothetedcross · 27/11/2023 14:06

How the hell do you sharpen them though? It's gorgeous eye liner but I can't sharpen mine, it just rotates in the sharpener (the correct VB one) does anyone else have this same problem?

I don’t know about the VB one but Barry M do an adjustable sharpener that can change to any size.

TheNinjaWife · 27/11/2023 14:25

I use Glimmerstick, and usually 3 at a time. I have hazel eyes, so usually layer a brown and olive colour, then top with a bronze to blend. It really picks up the colours in my eyes. I found this out by accident, when I ordered a bronze colour too light to wear in its own.

KingsleyBorder · 27/11/2023 14:26

Well if you are someone who wears eyeliner frequently enough then if you only have one it will run out eventually and you’ll need to buy more. You could think of this like buying an extra large pack of toilet roll so you’re all stocked up for the longer term?

BusterGonad · 27/11/2023 15:15

Are they shimmery? I'd love a shimmery eyeliner.

Thinkle · 27/11/2023 15:17

Thanks OP, I have just ordered Sea Grey

That's because they have starting making them more than a third longer

They have some matt and some shimmery.

They are the best I have used and come with a smudging end too so you can use them as a shadow or smudge them out too

You must have a faulty sharpener I'm afraid. Mine is fine. And my older VB eyeliners almost stumps

are you sure? the email I received at the start of this year only mentioned price increases, nothing about increasing the size of products.

Rainsdropskeepfalling · 27/11/2023 15:38

No. They last about 1-2 hours on me. Nice and soft and disappear without a trace.
