New Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Additions

New Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Additions

Charlotte Tilbury expanded her Pillow Talk universe with new shades of Pillow Talk in the Lip Cheat Lip Liner, K.I.S.S.I.N.G. Lipstick and Collagen Lip Bath formulas. She also launched a plumper called the Pillow Talk Big Lip Plumpgasm Plumping Lip Gloss in two variations. As a fan of her original Pillow Talk Matte Revolution and Lip Cheat, I bought all the new ones to try and review.

Lip Cheat and Lipsticks

New Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Additions: Pillow Talk Fair, Original and Medium

For her lip liners and lipsticks she now as a shade called Pillow Talk Fair which is a cool-toned baby pink. I really love the Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk Fair which pulls a slightly bit deeper but the K.I.S.S.I.N.G. Lipstick is too pale and contrasted with my natural lip tone to work for me. It has a beautiful creamy formula that performs just as well as her other lipsticks. The shade is just too light and for me. For those who find her original Pillow Talk warm I think the new Pillow Talk Fair will be much better for you.

I’ve swatched all the Pillow Talk shades I have in the Fair, Original and Medium. I added Icon Baby to the mix by popular request. I really love that shade (reviewed here) but several of you aren’t a fan of the sparkle and glitter texture. It does not bother me but some were hoping that Pillow Talk Fair would be the same as Icon Baby without the shimmer. Swatching them side by side I think they’re very different.

I still like the original Pillow Talk the best for her lipsticks.

Plumpgasm Plumping Lip Gloss

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Big Lip Plumpgasm Plumping Lip Gloss

Charlotte Tilbury’s new Pillow Talk Big Lip Plumpgasm Plumping Lip Gloss is going to be either hit or miss for you depending on your pain tolerance for the tingle. I’d rate it an 8 out of 10 with a very strong sting that doesn’t go away. Some plumpers tingle for a few minutes but then the tingle fades. These are very strong on me and as much as I tried to love these, I just can’t. The tingle is as strong as the Fenty Heat and Maybelline Lifter Plumping Glosses on me and I cannot handle it.

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Big Lip Plumpgasm Plumping Lip Gloss Fair Medium

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Big Lip Plumpgasm Plumping Lip Gloss Medium Deep

Colors are really beautiful though. I found it really interesting on my arm swatches (above) they pull really warm and almost orangey looking. In the tube and on my lips they pull more neutral.

I wish these were in a lip gloss vinyl/lacquer formula instead of the plumpers but I know plumpers are popular so I do see these being very on trend.

Collagen Lip Bath

Charlotte Tilbury Collagen Lip Bath

I’ve saved the best for last because I think I love the Collagen Lip Bath more than anyone else. These give the illusion of fuller lips but it’s not really a plumping gloss, it has a high shine with a cushiony feel that makes them look super lush and glossy.

Rosy Glow is actually my favorite which I don’t have anymore because I’ve used it up multiple times (so I’m re-ordering as one last Sephora haul). I do really love the new Pillow Talk shades along with the Original.

Pillow Talk Fair is a pale milky pink but it’s one I can wear without looking like I have white-out on my lips. Pillow Talk Original is a nude pink. Pillow Talk Medium is a deeper rose nude. Pillow Talk Deep is pretty sheer but with some layering it gives a really pretty chestnut brown look.

Charlotte Tilbury Collagen Lip Bath Pillow Talk

I added swatches next to Refresh Rose, Peachy Plump and Walk of No Shame.

Overall I think these are beautiful additions to the Pillow Talk lineup. The KISSING Lipstick did not work for me shade-wise and the Plumping Lip Glosses are a no-go as they’re too painful for me to handle.
The others are solid A+ material.

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Icon Lipsticks + New Queen of Luck

January 29, 2024

NEW Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Icon Lipsticks

We’re seeing so many many lip launches this year and I am loving it! Today I have a look at the new Hollywood Beauty Icon colors and a few other recent launches from Charlotte Tilbury including the:

KISSING Lipstick shades

NEW Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Icon Lipsticks

I have five new KISSING Lipstick shades which pull neutral pink or rose on me. How the undertone looks on you will vary depending on your skin tone, skin undertone and lip tone. She also launched red shades but since I rarely wear reds I passed.

The new shades are cooler-toned than a lot of her other neutrals, but to me they’re still in the neutral category. The only one that pulls truly cool-toned on my lips is Red Carpet Pink.

All of the KISSING Lipsticks have a satin finish with a soft shine. They’re creamy, medium to full coverage and comfortable to wear. Lasting power is standard for her lipsticks, they stay put pretty well but aren’t transfer-proof. I love that these have a metallic pink color for the exterior packaging. Makes it fun!

NEW Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Icon Lipsticks

 

Icon Baby is a neutral light pink with a little bit of shimmer. The shimmer isn’t really noticeable on my lips although it does add a bit of dimension. This one has a little bit of texture in the tube which I suspect is from the shimmer, but once on the lips I don’t feel it.

Candy Chic is a candy neutral-warm pink. It’s almost a Barbie-like shade but with a bit more warmth.

Red Carpet Pink is a pretty cool-toned pale pink cream. On me it pulls almost mod-like, I’m really surprised how bright and warm it is in the stock photos and on their models although they have completely different coloring than me so I can see how it can look entirely different.

90’s Pink is a neutral mauve rose pink shade. It almost has a berry vibe to it. I think out of all the ones this is one of my favorites.

Rose to Fame is another mauve pink rose, it’s similar to 90’s Pink, I would say that Rose to Fame pulls a little more vibrant on me.

Rocket Girl is one of two limited-edition shades Charlotte Tilbury launched inspired by Elton John. This is a muted dusty pink. She describes it as a “cool nudey-pink” but on my lips it’s more of a neutral warm shade, almost pulls a little peachy on my complexion.

Above wearing:

Swatch comparisons below to many of her other neutrals. These are the most neutral neutrals I could find in my stash. In swatch testing I was really surprised to find so many of her other shades are more neutral-warm by comparison.

Below added swatches include Hot Lips 2 Dance Floor Princess, Pillow Talk + Pillow Talk Medium, Very Victoria.

NEW Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Icon Lipsticks swatches

I did not pick up any of the red colors although they look quite stunning. I rarely wear red and I feel like I already have a good selection from recent Bobbi Brown, Makeup By Mario and Chanel 31 Le Rouge launches.

Lip Cheat – new shades

NEW Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Icon Lip Cheat Icon Baby and 90s Pink

She launched 5 new shades of lip liners. I picked up the two lightest options. Icon Baby is described as a “warm nude-rose” but to me it’s more of a peachy nude pink. It does pull warm on me and on my lip tone you can barely see it. Iconic Nude and Pillow Talk show up a lot better on me.

90’s Pink is a deep rose. I was hoping it would be identical to the lipstick version, but it pulls a few shades darker and more reddish. Still very pretty and pairs beautifully with the lipstick.

Queen of Luck

Charlotte Tilbury Queen of Luck Eyeshadow Palette

I feel like it’s been so long since we’ve seen a new eyeshadow palette from Charlotte Tilbury. Queen of Luck has a pale cool cream shimmer, duochrome golden pink shimmer, warm gold glitter topper and soft warm tan brown matte. I think it’s beautiful. I swatched it next to Celestial Lights which was limited-edition. I think they’re definitely similar in the effect so I don’t think you need both if you already own Celestial Lights.

Charlotte Tilbury Queen of Luck Eyeshadow Palette vs Celestial Lights

 

You can see Queen of Luck in actionin this reel here. I really like it but don’t think it’s an absolute must unless you missed out on Celestial Lights.

Overall lots to love from these launches. I think there’s a shade for everyone. If you tried any of the reds I’m curious to know your thoughts!

All the Hollywood Beauty Icon shades are out now at Charlotte Tilbury and Sephora. There are some bundles available at Charlotte Tilbury if you buy a Lipstick + Lip Liner Duo or a Lipstick Duo Bundle (you can pick the shades).

Rocket Girl and Queen of Luck are both exclusive to Charlotte Tilbury for now.

Charlotte Tilbury Pinkgasm + Pinkgasm Sunset

May 25, 2023

Charlotte Tilbury Pinkgasm + Pinkgasm Sunset

Charlotte Tilbury added some new items in the Summer of Lovegasm Collection with new shades of Jewel Lips lip gloss and a new shade of the Beauty Light Wand. The team also brought back the Glowgasm Face Palette in Lovegasm.

I have a look at both Jewel Lips and Beauty Light Wands today. I passed on repurchasing the highlighter contour palette since I already own the original and found the shades a bit frosty for my taste. (If you search videos on YouTube you will see there are slight variations in color and undertone between the original and newly re-released version.)

I have all 4 items applied in action from Instagram which I’ll link below. For more thoughts, keep reading.

Beauty Light Wands

Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wands Pinkgasm and Pinkgasm Sunset

I really love the Pinkgasm Beauty Light Wand. It’s been one of my favorite shimmery pinks since it originally launched. I often top it with the Dior Rosy Glow Blush for a bit more of a pink pop.

The new Pinkgasm Sunset is a shimmery deeper reddish pink. I really like it because not too deep or dramatic and it’s also not as shimmery/frosty.

Both have a noticeable shimmer finish but blend out easily on the skin. On my skintone (Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Foundation in Shade 6N) these work as a blush with a highlighter sheen.

Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wands Pinkgasm and Pinkgasm Sunset

Jewel Lips

Charlotte Tilbury Jewel Lips Pinkgasm and Pinkgasm Sunset

There are two new shades of Jewel Lips lip gloss and as a gloss lover, I really love these. Pinkgasm is a pretty baby pink with subtle shimmer and Pinkgasm Sunset is a sheer jelly red. They both have a sheer finish – to me they apply a lot sheerer than what I see on the models. I love both colors as they are but kinda wish they had the pigmentation you see on the stock swatches and on the model lips. Even with layering I cannot get the level of brightness or vibrancy as what I see online, but both are still stunning.

They both have some level of shimmer in the tubes but on my lips I don’t really notice any shimmer. Texture is smooth and glossy. Lasting power is pretty good for a gloss. They’re supposed to be plumping but I really didn’t notice any plumping effect or sensation.

They have a soft sweet vanilla-like scent to them. It’s pleasant and not overpowering.

Charlotte Tilbury Jewel Lips Pinkgasm and Pinkgasm Sunset

Below looks wearing:

Overall love the new additions. I think they’re pretty shades I’ll reach for often. I don’t usually wear reds but I love a good jelly red gloss for some color, especially during the summer months.

The shades appear to be exclusive to Charlotte Tilbury’s website for now. I’m not sure if we will see them at other retailers at a later date.

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Collection Newness for Spring

February 21, 2023

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Collection Review

In Partnership with Charlotte Tilbury

Charlotte Tilbury added new items to her Pillow Talk lineup for spring and as a huge fan of the Pillow Talk collection I’m thrilled to share a look at her new launches today! The Pillow Talk Collection features nude-pink shades that are universally flattering for everyone. The Matte Revolution Lipstick and Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk are hands down my favorite everyday neutral rose pink tones to wear and I’m always excited to see new extensions in this color theme.

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Collection Review

Pillow Talk Lips

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Collection Matte Revolution Lipstick, Lip Lustre Gloss and Lip Cheat Lip Liner

For those new to Charlotte Tilbury here’s a look at three of my favorite Pillow Talk lip products. The Matte Revolution Lipstick is a classic everyday rose with smooth velvety coverage. Her Lip Cheat Lip Liner is my perfect lips-but-better shade that goes with everything. For the lip gloss lover the Lip Lustre in Pillow Talk is the perfect glossy rose pink neutral with opaque coverage and a natural shine.

Hypnotizing Pop Shot + Pillow Talk Eye Colors

Charlotte Tilbury Hypnotizing Pop Shots in Pillow Talk Diamonds

For the eyes Charlotte Tilbury just launched two new shades of her Hypnotizing Pop Shots and I have the rose pink shade in Pillow Talk Diamonds. These are stunning sparkle toppers in a pressed powder format. The texture is impeccable. These shadows are loaded with multi-dimensional sparkle and tiny glitters yet they adhere remarkably well to the lids and stay put. I like to pat these on with my fingers. The Ultra Violet shade is already sold out, but the exclusive to CharlotteTilbury.com Pillow Talk Diamond shade is still available.

Charlotte Tilbury Hypnotizing Pop Shots in Pillow Talk Diamonds

I’ve swatched it next to her Pillow Talk Eyeshadow Palette and Pillow Talk Luxury Palette of Pops, both of which have glitter sparkle toppers. The new Hypnotizing Pop Shot in Pillow Talk Diamonds has more of a rosy plum pink undertone with more intense sparkle than what I see in her other palettes. Also swatched her Eyes to Mesmerize Cream Shadow in Pillow Talk for comparison which is a lovely plum rose on me.

Pillow Talk Blush + Highlighters

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Cheek Products Blush and Highlighter

For the cheeks her newest launch is the Matte Beauty Blush Wands. I hauled a few and shared a tutorial demo on Instagram a few weeks ago and love them. Pillow Talk is exclusive to her website. It’s a wearable soft matte rose that is easy to blend and layer with a nice natural matte dry down. For a cream/liquid blush these have really good staying power.

Charlotte Tilbury Highlighters

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Glow Glide Highlighters

January 11, 2023

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Glow Glide Highlighters

Charlotte Tilbury launched new powder highlighters called the Hollywood Glow Glide Face Architect Highlighters ($48 each). There are seven shades total – six shades are available at most retailers like Nordstrom, Sephora, Bloomingdale’s, Revolve etc. and one of them looks like it is exclusive to Charlotte Tilbury (Sunset Glow).

I picked up six of the Glow Glide Highlighters to swatch and test. These are powder highlighters that have a very smooth application. Shimmer is finely milled and glowy with medium to rich pigment. I’d say finish is on the more glowy side but it’s easy to blend/sheer out for a more subtle highlight.

At this point I think I have enough highlighters to last several lifetimes, but I think these are really beautiful. I like that there are tones to suit fair, medium, medium tan and deeper skin tones. I don’t know that I’d call any of these must-haves, to me these have a very similar vibe to the current Dior Forever Couture Luminizer Powders but with slight differences in color and undertone.

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Glow Glide Highlighters

Colors include:

  • Moonlit Glow is a pale ivory highlighter on my skin, it has the sharpest contrast on my skin
  • Champagne Glow is a champagne highlighter, also very pale but a bit deeper
  • Pillow Talk Glow is a light pearly pink glow
  • Gilded Glow is a pretty gold shimmer
  • Bronze Glow is a neutral golden bronze, definitely looks bronzey on my skin, I think it makes a great eyeshadow color
  • Rose Gold Glow is the closest highlighter I’ve seen to match rose gold, pulls warm on my skin, almost orangey but I think this would look beautiful on deeper skin tones

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Glow Glide Highlighters swatches

Check them out in action on my latest Reel:

 

For my skin twins quick note that I’m a shade to a shade and a half lighter than I normally am. I had to buy a shade lighter in a few foundations because most of them are too dark for me. I do tan easily so I suspect I will get more color soon. For the Charlotte Tilbury foundation I’m Shade 6 now.

Overall I really like the quality and finish. My favorites are Pillow Talk Glow and Champagne Glow although I think I will definitely be wearing Bronze Glow more once I get some more color. I really love the color in Gilded Glow but it’s a bit warm/yellow on me right now. For a more neutral gold I think the Dior Forever Couture Highlighter in Golden Glow is more wearable since it’s more neutral and less yellow. For a less orangey/warm color than Charlotte Tilbury Rose Gold I think you can opt for the Chanel Oversize Highlighter in Or Rose.

Since I love her Glowgasm Beauty Light Wand in Peachgasm I kinda wish she had launched a peachy powder highlighter or a deeper pink to match her Pinkgasm shade. For now I will stick with the wands since I think those colors are perfect.

Charlotte Tilbury Quick & Easy Looks

May 22, 2022

Charlotte Tilbury Quick and Easy Looks

Charlotte Tilbury launched five instant-look sets in her new Quick and Easy Collection. These are kit trios with cream twist up sticks packaged in a mirrored cases for busy women on-the-go. I was intrigued by the concept and ordered a few. There are five color variations total. Kits are priced at $75 each but each component is available separately as a refill ($27 for the highlighter, $20 for the eye wand, $27 for the lip + cheek wand, $20 for the case). All available online at Charlotte Tilbury.

Each kit has 1 Easy Lip and Cheek Wand, 1 Easy Eye Wand and 1 Easy Highlighter Wand. While doing some research on the colors I found that while there are 5 different Easy Lip & Cheek Wands and 5 Easy Eye Wands, the Easy Highlighter Wand is available in 2 colors.

Charlotte Tilbury Quick and Easy Looks

on the nails: Dior Vernis Bayadere 633 

I bought 3 kits and 2 refills. After playing around with these I have mixed thoughts. I love the concept and the colors are beautiful. The packaging is clever and super convenient for on-the-go whether you want to throw it into your purse or travel. Quality and color payoff of the products is excellent. Here are my thoughts on each product.

The Easy Lip and Cheek Wands are really nice! I liked them more than I thought I would. I usually don’t like products that are for both lip + cheek because I find them either too dewy or too dry. These work for both. Swiping on the lips gives you medium to full color payoff. Finish on the cheeks is more subtle once you blend it out. Not 100% matte, still a little creamy, but not super emollient.

The Easy Highlighter Wands come in two colors and if you’re a fan of the dewy highlighter look they’re really nice. They don’t have a dry down and remain dewy but I wouldn’t call them quite as dewy as the Chanel Baume Essentiels. On my skin these have a nice shimmer glow without glitter or frost.

My thoughts on the Easy Eye Wands are mixed. Pros: once they set they are budge-proof, colors are buildable and easy to blend (but you have to work quickly), color selection is nice! Cons: a single shade isn’t enough for a complete eye look, product is a little bit dry so there is a bit of tugging on the skin but once you warm it up it’s easier to work with, product size is very small.

Onto a look at the kits! Swatches below:

Charlotte Tilbury Quick and Easy swatches

Pretty Fresh

I bought the refills for the Pretty Fresh Look with just the Easy Eye Wand and Easy Lip & Cheek Wand. On my skin the Pretty Fresh eye color is a neutral champagne shimmer that pretty much matches my eye lid color so it was nearly invisible once blended. In the look below I added the Easy Eye Wand in Golden Glow.

Pretty Fresh Lip & Cheek is a pretty vibrant coral pink. I think it’s fun and fresh for summer. I also added the Easy Highlighter Wand in Chic Glow which is a pale opal shimmer. Skin-tone wise I’m wearing the Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Foundation in Shade 7 now.

Sun-Kissed has a warm pink rose eye shade and a plum-pink blush. This one also has the Golden Glow Highlighter in the kit.

Overall Thoughts

I love the concept and the quality is on point. However I don’t think these are going to give you a “complete” look unless you’re more of a minimalist and want just a subtle pop of color to refresh your look. These kits will cover the basics and I think they’re great for a quick and easy look. As much as I love a simple eye look I find I still need 3 colors for the eyes. Another downside is the price. I think the price points are fairly steep given the size.

I like that you can buy the individual shades. The compact is clever and holds everything in place so product doesn’t get lost in your bag. Individuals also come with caps so the product is sealed. Overall I really love the Lip & Cheek Shades. I think they’re nice for that quick and easy look for both the lips and cheeks. All the colors I tried are super wearable and have good color payoff.

If you were looking for swatches and a review I hope you found this post helpful! I don’t know that I can call them must-haves. I like the concept, quality is great and I will use them.

You can find these available at Charlotte Tilbury right now. Have you checked these out? What did you think?

New Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Launches

April 21, 2022

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk New Launches

There are some new Pillow Talk launches from Charlotte Tilbury and I have a full haul + swatches for you! I have some hits and a couple partial misses in today’s roundup. You can find all the items out now, I hauled my picks from Charlotte Tilbury and Nordstrom.

If you’re shopping multiple items I highly recommend you check Charlotte Tilbury’s website first to see if the colors you’re looking for are still in stock. She has bundles available and most of them are customizable and have a price break.

Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Beautifying All Over Glow Highlighter

Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Beautifying All Over Glow Highlighter

There are two new highlighters called the Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Beautifying All Over Glow Highlighter ($45 each). There are two variations in Romance Light and Dream Light. Both have four shades each for a glass-like glow. Each palette has a mix of finely milled shimmers and a couple sparkle shades. The sparkle is super fine so it’s not chunky on the skin. Finish is smooth even though they’re very metallic.

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Beautifying All Over Glow Highlighter

Romance Light is the lighter variation which I prefer for my skin tone. It surprised me how pretty the glow is! I don’t know that I would call it a must-have since you can get a similar effect with other highlighters on the market.

Below wearing:

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Beautifying All Over Glow Highlighter Romance Light

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Beautifying All Over Glow Highlighter Romance Light

Dream Light is the deeper variation. It’s a semi-miss for me, mainly because the color is a bit too deep for my skin tone as a highlighter. On my skin it pulls very copper, very warm and a bit too dramatic. It would probably work better on someone with very tan to deep skin tone. I do love it on the eyes though! I think the colors are stunning as an eyeshadow palette.

Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Beautifying All Over Glow Highlighter in Dream Light

The product describes this as an “all over glow” highlighter. I found them too glowy to be used all over the face.

Quality wise these get a solid A+ for texture, packaging, lasting power and finish.

Pillow Talk Lip & Cheek Glow

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lip & Cheek Glow Colour of Dreams

The Pillow Talk Lip & Cheek Glow ($40) was relaunched in this collection. I bought both the last round but never used them so I gifted them away. I decided to give Colour of Dreams a try. The color is beautiful but I’m not a fan of the packaging style and it is too dewy for my cheeks. If you’re a fan of the dewy cheek look (like the Chanel Baume Essentiel) then I think you will love this.

It’s too dewy for my cheeks, a bit too sheer for the lips for my taste. It’s not a bad product. Just not what I look for in a lip or cheek product. Colour of Dreams is a neutral rosebud shade.

Swatched next to the Pillow Talk lip lineup for reference below.

Luxury Eye Palette + Eyes to Mesmerise

Charlotte Tilbury Luxury Eye Palette ($53) in Pillow Talk Dreams

Charlotte Tilbury added a new Luxury Eye Palette ($53) in Pillow Talk Dreams and I’m obsessed. It has two metallic shimmers with a fine texture and two soft pigmented mattes in a light rose and plum brown. I love the colors and color payoff. I think it’s really stunning!

I also swatched the Eyes to Mesmerise ($34) in Pillow Talk which isn’t new, but I hadn’t swatched it yet. If you like mauves you will love this one. I think it’s a really pretty shade, but I prefer Rose Gold for the pink tones.

Last I have a quick look at the Pillow Talk Beauty Light Wands ($40 each) in Pillow Talk Light/Medium and Medium/Deep. These have been restocked so if you had your eye on these they’re back! I’m reposting swatches I had from a previous review below.

Overall the quality and color payoff of everything in her new launch is great. The colors didn’t all work out for me, but there are some solid new loves for me. If I had to pick one stand out it would be her new Pillow Talk Dreams Eyeshadow Palette. The highlighters are nice but not must-haves.
