I Used Victoria Beckham Beauty for Just 16 Days — 13 Products I Can’t Part With

      To be honest, this was possibly the simplest beauty testing experience I've ever had. Victoria Beckham Beauty is behind some of my all-time favorite makeup items (in fact, if I had to stick to just one brand for the rest of my life, it would likely be VBB), so dedicating 16 days to the brand was effortless. I frequently apply a full face of VBB without even thinking about it! Celebrity makeup artist Kelli Anne Sewell also identifies herself as a devoted fan, praising the user-friendly, high-quality, and luxurious formulas. "I believe I am Victoria Beckham Beauty's biggest supporter. I'm not joking," she shares with me. It's safe to say that VBB is a staple in her makeup kit. She continues, "The packaging feels incredibly high-end—which, as a consumer, makes me eager to pick up the products—but as an artist, the formulas truly impress." While yes, VBB's products carry a higher price tag, the sleek packaging, stunning shades, and appealing textures make them well worth the cost. Sewell concurs. "You’ll be pleased with their performance and look forward to reaching for the packaging," she states. "Very sturdy. Not flimsy. Feels luxurious."

      Now, unless you're planning to completely revamp your makeup collection, you're probably curious about which few products you should prioritize. Below, find the essentials I leaned on most during my testing period and now can’t live without, along with Sewell’s MUA must-haves. Here’s the ultimate VBB shopping list.

      **Satin Kajal Liner**

      I adore this eyeliner so much that I dedicated an entire review to it. The formula is creamy and comfortable, the 20 shades are absolutely divine, and the application is incredibly impressive. Sewell agrees, referring to the liners as "among the most buttery, easy-to-blend, long-lasting, beautiful" products available. "I use them on nearly every client as a shadow base or in the waterline," she notes. The liner is arguably VBB’s best seller—and rightly so! One liner is sold every 30 seconds, as reported by Victoria Beckham herself. I own nearly every shade, but my favorite has to be Cocoa, which also happens to be Beckham's top choice! This rich matte brown serves as the perfect base for all my eye looks, whether I’m going for a full smoky eye or just a quick flick at the outer corners.

      **The Foundation Drops**

      These Foundation Drops deserve a love letter from me. They’re that impressive. Typically, serum foundations end up being too greasy and fail to effectively conceal blemishes, but this one truly covers all the bases. The precise nozzle ensures a mess-free application, and the lightweight formula contains suspended pigments that blur textural issues while letting your natural skin shine through. For what it’s worth, Sewell is equally enamored, referring to the formulation as next-level. "Yes, they’re pricey, but it feels like you’re applying a creamy veil of skincare that is weightless yet provides stunning, medium-full coverage and gives you glass skin. Impeccable," she says. Would you expect anything less from a collaboration with Augustinus Bader?

      **The Concealer Pen**

      Following the Foundation Drops, I must highlight the equally creamy Concealer Pen—also created in collaboration with Augustinus Bader. Call it makeup-skincare magic, but this concealer doesn’t crease. Seriously. That alone makes it a winner for me, and the coverage is flexible and incredibly natural-looking. It’s no surprise that it earned a coveted place in our WWW 100 Beauty Awards last year!

      **Contour Stylus**

      I used to avoid contouring until I discovered this VBB gem. The precise applicator and creamy, easy-to-blend formula are ideal for contouring beginners (like me) and those aiming to define specific areas, such as the eyelids and bridge of the nose. "These are fantastic detailing tools," Sewell previously told me about her favorite contouring products. "I love using them on the nose, eyes, and lips. Super easy to work with." You might not typically connect "contour" with "everyday essential," but this Contour Stylus has become nonnegotiable for me. I love how its cool-toned formula enhances my look while maintaining a natural appearance for daily wear. It's an underrated hero, in my opinion!

      **Future Lash Mascara**

      As a devoted brown-mascara user, this rich chocolate shade was practically made for me. Aside from the stunning color, this is one of the creamiest and most conditioning mascaras I own. I initially thought it might be too moisturizing and lead to smudging and flaking, but I was pleasantly surprised to be wrong. I’ve used it before multiple weddings and can confidently say it passes the "happy tears" test. Extra points for the micro-bristle brush, which works wonders for my stubborn
