Victoria Beckham Beauty ‘Lid Lustre’ Is A Stunning Crystal Eyeshadow

Oh my! Victoria Beckham Beauty ‘Lid Lustre’ is a dream.

Who doesn’t love a good sparkly eyeshadow? Now, what about one that is crystal infused for aura-amplifying energy? Well, Lid Lustre from Victoria Beckham Beauty is just that: a crystal infused eyeshadow. These little glimmer pots promise “otherworldly shine” in just one swipe. The nine shades are inspired by the healing and protective power of crystals to promote things like good energy and creativity. As much as I appreciate the good vibes, the overall performance is what really matters. Does Lid Lustre meet my standards? Let’s find out.

Promises vs. Performance: Love a foiled wet eye look? Try this.

Victoria Beckham calls her Lid Lustre Crystal Infused Eyeshadow “instant glamour at your fingertips.” The creamy pressed powder eyeshadow delivers high-shine dimension to the eyes. Its formula is buildable to achieve a subtle swipe of glimmer or even more sparkle. Lid Lustre has a unique formula made up of over 60% pearlescent pigments for a wet, pearly finish, plus is infused with skin-loving ingredients like squalane and guava leaf extract. And, what would a crystal eyeshadow be without an addition of crystals to the formula for aura-amplifying energy? Each of the nine shades have a different crystal to harness the healing and protective powers.

When wearing Lid Lustre, I like to prime my eyelids for best results (NARS Pro-Prime, $26, works great). The pressed powder texture is creamy and silky soft to the touch, and applies easily with a brush or the fingers. Personally, I like to place the pigment with my finger first, then use a brush to layer and diffuse the edges. On simple makeup days, Lid Lustre is the perfect one and done shadow. But, I also love wearing this as an eyeshadow topper for some added sparkle.

Lid Lustre does have a bit of fallout when applying, but stays in place once applied over an eye primer. Victoria Beckham Beauty doesn’t have any wear claims for Lid Lustre, but I experience little to no creasing, smudging, or fading for glistening eyes all day long.

How It Compares: Victoria Beckham Beauty is pricey, but there are some hidden gems (literally) in the line.

Lid Lustre is one of my favorite products from Victoria Beckham Beauty. This glitter eyeshadow not only makes eyes sparkle and shine, but is infused with crystals to promote things like healing, positive energy, and inspiration. They really do give that wet eye look and foiled effect without having to wet the shadow. With minimal fallout and little to no creasing (with a primer), Lid Lustre is the perfect addition to any eye look. Truly, they’re stunning. (see video for application)
