Thinking of Luxury Makeup? Think Charlotte Tilbury.



 Makeup Artist to the stars, YouTuber,  Vogues No.1 and Makeup Revolutionist!

This beautiful, inspiring and empowering lady knows a thing or 10 about make up. 

Her makeup may be pricey but I can assure you it's worth it.
 Using the same makeup as the likes of Kate Moss, Victoria Beckham, Cara D and practically every other A list model and celebrity on the planet is a pretty cool thought...right? 

Charlotte is the master of the smokey eye and the inventor of the the powerful and alluring yet doable feline flick. She provides us detailed how to guides on her blog and YouTube channel, therefore there is nothing this lady isn't doing which you can't recreate and using the exact products used on the stars. 

This is her makeup revolution and she's inviting women and men all over the world to join her. 


Her makeup is raved about and recently I was lucky enough to receive a present from my best friend Vee, from Victoria Beauty for my birthday from CT's luxury collection of colour coded eyeshadows. 

Luxury Pallette, Fallen Angel 
Sorry I did use it before I photographed it, I just couldn't wait and was going to a party! 
From left to right- 1 Prime, 2 Enhance, 3 Pop, 4 Smoke

How beautifully are these eye shadows presented? The rose gold packaging gives the product such a luxurious feel. With Charlottes name engraved and the sparking, starry case just makes you want to show it off to everyone.

My thoughts on the Shadows:
  • 1 Prime is a barely there glossy golden toned pink pearlescent colour, it is perfect as a base on the eye, highlight on the brow bone or inner conner of the eye or even as a highlight on the high of the cheekbone
  • 2 Enhance is a cool toned antique silver it will literally compliment any eye colour and skin tone. It will work well with warm or cool toned colours being blended into it with ease. 
  • 3 Pop is a Molten metallic bronzy colour, works well blended into the crease with enhance on the lid for an easy and wearable day look with a pop of colour. It will add a chic edge to any eye makeup look by making any eye instantly smokey
  • 4 Smoke is a velvet jet black, it is everything you want in a black eyeshadow and blends perfectly. However, it does have a little bit too much fall out which is slightly messy but ensuing you tap off excess prior to application it isn't a problem
Charlotte also has a tutorial on how to do the perfect smokey eye on her website using this pallet just click here to watch. Or she has made an easy desk to disco image based tutorial...


This combination should lead to something like...
This... I an going to pretend I look like this.

Let me know if you have any of Charlotte's collection and your thoughts? 

What should I add to my already very long Wish list?

If you have this pallett, do you agree? 

I'd love to hear from you! 

Thats all of now Beauties,

Mucho Love,
