Perfect
In general, I don't need any coverage except for under my eyes, or sometimes around my nose. This product is perfect. It is a concealer, not a highlighter (although I suppose it can work as one if you have a light enough shade and use it in the correct areas of your face). The pigmentation is excellent, and 1 Fair matches my skin perfectly (I wear shade 2 in her foundation). After setting wit CT's powder, there is no creasing or issues, it is absolutely fantastic!
Love it
I have been using this by adding 1/4 of wonderglow to 3/4 of my CT foundation, and I love the results. I have not yet tried it as an actual primer, but since I am happy with my current results, I probably won't bother changing my routine. It gives me a subtle glow (NOT shiny or shimmery) and the texture is great. Not too runny, not too thick. I believe it will also last me ages as I use so little to mix with my foundation. Great product!
Lovely!
I wear shade #2 in CT's foundation, and shade #1 in this powder works great. It looked super light in the pan, but it blends seamlessly once on the face! I use this powder to set my foundation and it works fantastically. CT has really outdone herself on all these products, my face looks flawless!
Love the coverage, and perfect color match
I was going back and forth whether or not I wanted to buy this foundation, as it is so difficult choosing a shade online. Thankfully Beautylish was able to help me, and I figured out that #2 is a perfect shade for me (I am fair/light with yellow undertones). The coverage in my opinion is moderate. I personally don't need a lot of coverage as I don't really have anything to hide, so I love it. I mix 1/4 wonderglow with 3/4 foundation and apply with my fingers, fantastic result!
Excellent!
Not only is the packaging luxurious (as with all CT products) but the quality of the blush itself is also fantastic! I have fair skin and the peachy-pink of this blush goes perfectly with my complexion. I also have ecstasy on its way to me, and I am sure I will love that one as well!
Golly, I love this!
I usually suck when it comes to applying any sort of bronzer/contour, but this palette makes it so easy. The bronze shade goes perfectly with my skintone (fair with yellow undertones, shade 2 in the Charlotte Tilbury foundation) and it is so easy to blend in!! The highlight shade is also fantastic, not too shimmery, just gives a gorgeous glow on my skin. Amazing palette, great quality! I think the price jumped up $3 (yes, I notice these minor things lol) but it would even be worth up to $100!! Great product.
Great, BUT...
Okay, so I got a sample of this with a recent Charlotte Tilbury order I made. I love the brush and the formula, as it does add volume, curl and length, BUT, the formula is very dry!! I actually got two samples as I had two separate orders, and compared both (I thought maybe one was dried out) but they're both the same. It is hard to work with because of the dryness, but the end effect is nice if you're willing to work for it! Also, there are fibers in the formula, which I don't mind, but they usually settle in odd places on my lashes haha.
Great nude
I would give 5 stars, but I feel this specific shade doesn't apply as smoothly as the other CT lipsticks I own. I also have Penelope Pink and Bitch Perfect, and in comparison to the two, it is more of a neutral nude. Penelope Pink is a pink-nude and Bitch Perfect shows as a peachy shade on my lips, not super nude. I think Penelope Pink suits me better (I have warm undertones, green eyes, blonde hair) but I do also love this lipstick, as it goes great with a smoky/neutral eye. It is not as peachy as it appears in photos!
Love? Is there even a stronger word?
What can I say... This eye shadow palette is fantastic! Today I decided to wear all shades except for the bottom right, which is very dark and I will only use for a night out for dinner or dancing. All colors have fantastic pigment, and go on with ease. My favorite color is probably the top right shade, it is such a beautiful neutral taupe and looks great with my eye color and skin tone. The only downside about this palette, and why I docked half a star, is because the amount of eye shadow you get for the price you pay is a bit silly. The regular CT palettes are less money and you get more product. I realize this is a 'special formula', but I don't think it's so special to be charged so much more for so little.
