Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

I already have the Filmstar bronze & glow palette but looking into some of her other products.

 

Does anyone have any experiences they would like to share esp with her Light Wonder Foundation, her blush and the Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder? I'm interested in getting these three things but still on the fence about taking the plunge! 

 

Please let me know, many BTers opinions have helped me out on products before 😄 Thanks in advance!

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

I like Glastonberry, so I'll speak up for it.  I don't think it's matte at all!  It has a shimmer which I find makes it more wearable.  But I can see the shade looking muddy on some.

And I do like these mattes but the formula isn't consistent, in my opinion.  Red Carpet Red, Bond Girl and the nude (Victoria?) are my personal favorites.  But the nude won't work on many.

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

I had the same bad experience with Glastonberry as well. Of the 12 mattes, it was the color I was looking forward to the most because it was purple. To be fair, many brands have a hard time making a proper, unpatchy purple. Red Carpet Red is my favorite of the CT mattes so far.

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

I may exchange it for Red Carpet Red since it's been such a hit around here!

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Also, a touch more brown maybe, but UD Blackmail is similar too. And their formula is something I LOVE ❤️ ! The first 20 min after application it is demi matte, after which it becomes matte, for me. But it is SO comfortable and does not dry my lips out. I do not have Blackmail, though online it looks slightly more brown than Glastonberyy. I do have 1993, Menace, Tilt and Temper, and it truly is a gorgeous formula !

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

If anyone wants to see Blackmail in action, I suggest Tati from YT channel Glam Life Guru, she has very good swatches 🙂

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

In the same berry/purple color tones, I find Marc Jacobs Boy Gorgeous to be gorgeous 😄 (couldn't help it) ! It also is a close dupe for Tom Ford Plum Lush !

 

It has a matte finish and stays put on me, no feathering and excellent formula !

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Hmm, so is it a semi matte? I may actually like this. 

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Yes, the formula is semi-matte and forgiving (they describe it as "modern matte" which is not really helpful).

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Red Carpet is my favourite too!

 

I like Love Liberty, but I think I have it more to have it than anything else.  I am glad a matte doesn't dry me out...so I want it.

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

enableme, this is exactly what I felt about Glastonbury when I tried it out at Nordies a few days ago..  I reviewed somewhere below.  I decided not to buy it.

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Drats! I wish I would have waited before ordering it. It's a shame because I like the color a lot!

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Aw I'm sorry to hear that!  I was totally interested in Glastonberry.  

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

It's a beautiful color 😞

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Hi! I'm wondering if any of the CT lipstick has a sheer finish? Do they have that "click" when you shut them? I haven't tried any of her products, but I am so tempted!

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Miss Kensington has semi sheer color payoff compared to other mattes! But it is among the ones with wonky texture. Pulls in to the lip lines pretty quick. The shimmer doesnt help either! 😞

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

You're right! It's the only one that applied sheer. It was the worst of the mattes for me. 

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

So far none of them are sheer. Agree with Vineetha on Miss Kensington. The tubes are not magnetic. They don't click when they close. 

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Hi all,

 

After stalking their site, I bought some goodies and wore them everyday so far. I bought matte lipsticks in Walk of shame and Lost cherry, and I love them both. I have dry flaky lips, but these go on without tugging. They are not hydrating but they don't make my lips more parched either. And even on dry lips, they do not emphasize any flakiness. I love these both so far ! Gorgeous shades as well !

 

I also bought Eyes to mesmerize in Bette, and I LOVE IT ! It is a complex gold bronze shimmer, which just gives a wet foiled look. I can add more swatches if anyone would like to see 🙂IMG_7191.JPGIMG_7207.JPG

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Thank you ! 🙂

 

I love the colors in the matte range, while I do agree that the finish and texture are hit and miss, checking swatches helped quite a bit while choosing. And personally, both lost cherry and walk of shame are gorgeous colors. I have had no drying/flaking( I have very dry lips) or sheer finish problems with them, they are very buildable too if you do want an extreme POW thick layer application. Hope this helps anyone looking to buy these !

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

Very nice! And is perfect for you!

Re: Let's talk about Charlotte Tilbury..

GORGEOUS. Seriously, so pretty.
