Since the Spice Girl days, Victoria Beckham/Posh Spice has come a long way. A British pop icon turned style icon and now the designer behind her very own label, Victoria is the definition of a strong independent woman.
Her business plan is simple. Give women what they need.
It has worked great for her label and now she’s applying it to makeup! Mrs Victoria, (fondly referred to as VB) has now partnered with cosmetic giant Estée Lauder to bring out a limited edition collection of essentials that every woman needs in her life.

A must have from the collection would be Modern Mercury. The legendary rose gold highlighter in Estée Lauder’s speciality gelee formula. This product is said to be one of Victorias favourites for creating that sexy sweaty skin look. Glad it’s back and now in this smokin hot VB packaging! Yessss! Retail price SGD 104.For contrast between glowy skin, the collection features a matte bronzer Java Sun. A perfect neutral shade that can be used for a subtle sun-kissed effect, or worn beneath the cheekbones for definition & contour.

To achieve Victorias signature nude lip. Use the matte lip pencil in the shade Victoria. Either to outline or completely fill in the lips, this is a must have from the collection. Retail price SGD50.
Last but not least, for glossy lip lovers there’s a gorgeous warm nude lip gloss Moroccan Heat. Infused with Estée Lauders signature fig scent this gloss can be worn as is or over lipstick for a fuller pout. Retail price SGD50.
Concluding the preview of this collection, what were your favourites? I’m thinking the Modern Mercury highlighter and single shadows are must haves. And of course the nude lipstick Brazilian Nude to achieve Victorias sexy sophisticated pout! Gotta have ’em all to be honest. But at this price range one must prioritise and make that long list…
Collection launch is set for October.
