It is funny how one product can have all of the hype. Beauty bloggers, YouTubers, influencers, have all praised the now so famous Charlotte Tilbury lipstick adorably named "Pillow Talk". We have heard everything about it, but mainly that it was the 'perfect nude', and a 'favorite'. Yet how could we disagree?
It all started with a lip liner, launched in 2013 by the British makeup designer. As soon as it launched, it became a best seller, praised for its ability to make your lips look fuller, plumped, and simply better. A natural shade that was also perfect for many skin tones. Aware of its success, the brand decided to develop the product into a lipstick, now a real must have for all neutral lips and natural color lovers. The formula which has a matte finish, but is however riche and not drying, but also the perfection of that color, made of this launch one of the most important in the makeup industry of the 21st century. Charlotte Tilbury describes it herself as a lipstick that will give you "the most beautiful lips of your life". Quite a statement. Yet one I would definitely agree with. This color is discrete and neutral, however, when you wear it, it is definitely noticeable. Because if it won't give a massive pop of color on your face, it will however make your lips look perfect, with a simple rosy tint.
The success of the lip liner and the lipstick led to one of the most exciting launch of the year. In 2018, Charlotte Tilbury presented to the world her two new palettes, inspired by the now worldwide best seller lipstick. The result? A rosy cheek palette that will once again leave a discrete color, yet add just what's needed for your face to look illuminated and alive. The Pillow Talk Cheek Palette is actually giving you the "in love" kind of blushing, what we all craved to find, and she made it.
Concerning the eye palette, well, that's a real dream. A combination of four colors, including the pink from the lip liner, declined in three shades, a lighter and shimmery one, a darker pink, and a rose gold that is the one of dreams.
It is funny how one color can go through the years, and constantly be praised by new bloggers, YouTubers, and influencers. Yet I totally understand the hype, and am one of the first to praise this lovely shade, and rushed to get all of its new products. "Pillow Talk" achieved to become an emblematic color, and once you'll have tried it, you'll understand why. A real makeup dream.
