Haul: My First Picks from Charlotte Tilbury

Hallo! I finally took the plunge and made my first Selfridges (and certainly not my last) order early this week. THE ORDER ARRIVED IN THREE DAYS. Yes, there's a crazy shipping of £25.00 but there's also VAT deductions on the items. So, that means if you do some math, if you order enough items the deductions actually offsets the shipping (sort of break even, so to speak), and so I did that.
I had initially just wanted the new Tom Ford lipsticks (that's another haul entry), but since I am at the site, well, I should take the chance to get myself these Charlotte Tilbury makeup that I have been eyeing for quite some time. And I am impressed by the quality of her products so far (though a sample of her Magic Cream broke me out somewhat) but the makeup items... gosh. Loves.

Here's a quick rundown of the stuff I bought:

"Inspired by the ultimate, rock chick 'bedroom eyes', Charlotte Tilbury has created a revolutionary, no-nonsense liquid-eye pencil: it has the silky smooth glide of a liquid liner with the soft, sooty, pigment-rich result of a kohl. Rock'n'Kohl melts onto your skin for an easy, one-slick line that blends then sets. Channel your inner rock'n'roll muse with sexy, smoked-up rock chick eyes in an instant that stay put all day and all night."

I got mine in Bedroom Black (£19) - it is very creamy and sets matte. It does smudge on me.. but usually after I put on my falsies, liners don't really smudge anymore. I got this because the whole Rock & Kohl liner is so much a part of the Charlotte Tilbury aesthetic, I had to get one from her line.

"Beauty is how you feel inside and it reflects in your eyes. Charlotte Tilbury has de-coded the secrets to iconic, mesmerising eyes with these colour-coded eyeshadow palettes. Each one contains four harmonious colour ways that offer a complete 'desk to disco' eye colour wardrobe and an easy to use application ritual that is fail-safe to follow."

I got my palette in Dolce Vita (£38) it is a warm smokey neutral palette, and my, I had a hard time choosing which look to go for. There are a few neutrals which I would have got... if I need more eyeshadows (hahaa!) but I shall start with this.
I wore this palette (along with everything else) and I am very impressed by the weartime. The glitter part did not fade not fall all over my face. The glitter bits stayed and sparkled beautifully THE WHOLE DAY. The rest of the eyeshadows are creamy, intense.. not the smoothest (think Tom Ford) but very fine enough and blends like a dream.

at this moment, I am also eyeing
The Sophisticate
The Vintage Vamp
The Golden Goddess

I didn't have time to take proper LOTD pics yesterday.. so shall post LOTD another time.

"This is Charlotte Tilbury's fail-safe recipe for perfect lips. Thislipstick is enriched with a breakthrough, secret ingredient, the Lipstick Tree, an anti-oxidant that naturally protects lips from UV damage and external pollution leaving them cashmere soft and irresistible. Blended with special waxes and clever light-diffusing pigments for pert, full-bodied, ultra-brilliant lips that ensure you leave a lasting impression. K.I.S.S.I.N.G is Charlotte's signature range of ten lipsticks curated with modern and classic icons in mind. It is a capsule colour wardrobe of backstage nudes to red carpet reds made to suit any skin tone."

I got Bitch Perfect £23.00 - a pink nude beige, that's not too pale. I might get the reds from the line next time (trust me there will be a next time). The name is perfect, the color is perfect. The texture of the CT lippies remind me of the MAC Amplified lipsticks, quite thick and cream, and pretty long lasting too.

There's nothing like a couple of good old haul entries to end this Sunday huh. :)

Hope you enjoyed, and thanks for looking!
