Charlotte Tilbury K.I.S.S.I.N.G Lipstick in Hepburn Honey

Hepburn Honey


Last week I found my self taking a browse around the Selfridges Charlotte Tilbury counter (extremely dangerous), and I couldn't resist picking up this K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipstick in Hepburn Honey (amongst a few other things). Its such a lovely, rich nude that just looks incredible on.

NEW LAUNCH|| Jo Malone Wood Sage and Sea Salt Perfume



This new luxury perfume by Jo Malone, was the latest launch in her line of fabulous fragrances. Just released earlier this month, the baby of the group is by no means a slow-starter. It is quite honestly one of the nicest things I have ever had the pleasure of smelling, and I promise you I could not be happier than when I am prancing around, adorned in this satisfying scent.

Wood Sage and Sea Salt does sound a bit bizarre doesn't it? I mean, it's fairly hard to conjure up an idea of just how this smells… is it like the beach? And Wood Sage, like what even is that? Well… that was my initial response, when learning the contents of this bottle from such a beloved brand, but upon smelling it, it was a true lightbulb moment. A proper rom-com meet-cute if you will, but instead of a loved up leading couple, it was my nose and this little glass bottle of perfume.

Yes…I am weird, but this fragrance is not. I firmly suggest you make your way to your nearest Jo Malone counter and peruse an infatuation of your very own, I promise you won't be disappointed. You're Welcome.

Have you tried this yet? What do you think? And also, what other Jo Malone scents do you love and wear, and what do you think would blend well with this? I am dying for suggestions!


Lots of Love,

NEW|| Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lisptick in Love Liberty



Love Liberty

I love lipstick. Glossy or matte, dark or light…pink or purple, you get the just - I'm a fan. So after trying a couple of Charlotte Tilbury's K.I.S.S.I.N.G Fallen From The Lipstick Tree Lipsticks (Bitch Perfect and Coachella Coral), I nearly died when I heard about the launch of her Matte Revolution collection for lips. Naturally I picked up a couple (three) and I will post a little look at each, so you can decide if you're ready for the matte movement too.

Lifestyle|| SO?… Christmas Gifting Event




In (scorching hot) July of this year, I was lucky enough to attend the So…? Christmas in July event, to celebrate the launch of their new couture city sprays and some excellent Christmas gifting ideas.

The party was really on with bespoke cocktails and manis, gorge canapés and best of all…macaroons with the SO…? emblem on. Cool doesn't even cover it, (not to mention yum!)

Conceal It: The Retoucher by Charlotte Tilbury




Another Charlotte Tilbury genius product, this concealer is one of my latest buys from her line, and like everything else - believe the hype… this stuff is gooood. As will her other skin based product, this isn't dense or sticky, and applies with absolute ease. I use it around the eyes primarily, and a little on minor blemishes, but it isn't the most pigmented and doesn't have the most intense coverage I've seen either.


I dont necessarily think this is a bad thing, it works to lift under eye shadows and just freshen and pick up duller areas of your face, and luckily at the moment my skin in behaving (touch wood), so that's really all I need, and I am loving using this product. An absolute pleasure Ms Tilbury. There is no cakey-ness in sight, and it lasts a perfect amount of time, so much so that I am pleasantly surprised with the fresh appearance of my face - even after the most horrific of rush hour bus journeys, and that can't be bad.


On the Skin


Blended



The shade I chose was Medium 3 (the third darkest out of a possible four shades), but it's still not super light, so I recommend using her advice on which to get depending on the shade of her foundation you use…or even better pop into Selfridges and ask one of the professionals at her counter!





If you want to buy online you can grab one here, happy shopping!



Lots of Love,

Eyes Made Easy - Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon in Bronzed Garnet




As with all the Charlotte Tilbury range that I have come across, this shadow stick is bloody phenomenal. Suited for Green eyes (mine are Green/Blue), it is literally the quickest, easiest way to get a professional eye look in a matter of seconds.
