Fabulous favourites: My top three Charlotte Tilbury products you need to try
If it isn’t obvious by now, I really love Charlotte Tilbury products.
I am very fortunate in that I have gotten to try a fair amount of her products (I would say at least 85% of her range). Although there were many hits, I did find some products I didn’t love as much, and others that have quickly become staples in my collection.
If you have always wanted to try some items from her line but don’t know where to start or which to try, then I’m going to throw you a bone here. I have many favourites from her brand, but there are three that really stick out in my mind for being truly stellar.
Here they are…
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Longwear Foundation
The first time I tried Charlotte Tilbury’s Airbrush Flawless Finish Longwear Foundation (C$53) it was love at first sight.
The Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Longwear Foundation, available in a staggering 44 different shades from light to dark, delivers flawless and poreless-looking skin. The formula is high-coverage and promises to say on all day, feel weightless, and give you a natural matte finish.
This foundation actually goes deeper than just giving you amazing-looking skin. The formula includes skincare ingredients, including Magic REPLEXIUM to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by up to 22 per cent after eight weeks of use, MossCellTec No. 1 to boost hydration by up to 216 per cent, and AirCool for an instant fresh feel while you wear it.
This foundation applies so flawlessly and really gives you the perfect canvas for the rest of your makeup. I also find it holds up well to sweat and won’t budge even after hours of wear. It hydrates skin, smoothes out the look of your skin, and gives you a radiant glow. Plus, the shade range in here is inclusive for most skin tones, so you’ll definitely find the perfect shade for you.
Charlotte Tilbury Legendary Lashes Volume 2 Mascara
Charlotte Tilbury’s Legendary Lashes Volume 2 mascara quickly joined my top five list of favourite mascaras soon after I received it.
Legendary Lashes Volume 2 (C$38) is a the brand’s reformulated version of the original Legendary Lashes mascara that promised volumized lashes in a long-wear, smudge-proof, humidity-resistant formula. The brand also guarantees that it increases the volume of your lashes by 507 per cent after one application (seriously, such a random number).
This mascara is only available in one shade, black, which I love, since let’s be honest, how often are you going to wear another shade? I didn’t try the original formula, but I absolutely love this one and it’s right up there with Too Faced’s BTS, Tarte’s Lights, Camera, Lashes! and Marc Jacobs Beauty Velvet Noir. This mascara gives you dark, thick, and long lashes, leaving you with noticeable eyes.
The brush on this mascara is that hourglass shape that I love. One swipe is really all you need, but the more you layer it, the more your lashes will stand out. I wouldn’t say that my lashes look over 500 per cent increased, but it does a phenomenal job at making them look fuller and longer. I would definitely say that this makes my lashes look double.
If you can’t tell already, I absolutely love this mascara and can’t recommend it enough. The brush is so fluffy and really allows you to coat and exaggerate each lash, leaving you with that false lash effect.
Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillowtalk
Could this be a Charlotte Tilbury post without mentioning her number-one product?
The Matte Revolution lipstick (C$39) is a moisturizing matte formula that smooths and shapes lips. The formula is enriched with nourishing orchid and lipstick tree extracts to soften, protect, and hydrate lips. It also contains 3D glowing pigments to create the illusion of lit-from-within lips, making them appear wider and fuller.
Although this lipstick is available in a wide range of shades, the most popular colour, and one that started a revolution itself, is of course Pillow Talk! This shade is so flattering is a mauve pinky nude that looks so good on most skin tones. This colour is flattering on so many people that they have released different products inspired by the shade, as well as complementary tones so it fits just about any skin tone imaginable.
I have the original lipstick, the lipstick topper, two of the lip liners, both eyeshadow palettes, the blush, and the Vinyl lipstick. It’s one of those colours that goes with pretty much any makeup look and is so versatile that you don’t have to put too much thought into which lipstick to grab.
If you don’t have it yet, I highly recommend picking it up.
I could really go on and on about other Charlotte Tilbury products to try, but since her line is on the pricier side, if you want to grab few items but don’t know where to start, then these are ones I would definitely choose.
