My new favourite cruelty-free mascara
Normally I don't buy anything except waterproof mascara, but since last year I have made a point to only buy cruelty-free products and finding a new one that I liked has been difficult. Seeing as I was trying a few other CT products, I decided to take a chance on this mascara and am I ever glad I did! This mascara does everything it promises. When applying it doesn't clump, keeps my lashes separated, gives length and volume. And I have to say I love the brush. Many mascaras I've tried, I've found the brush is just too big, this one is the perfect size. Despite it not being waterproof, this lasts all day for me, and doesn't give me the dreaded under-eye smudges by the end of the workday. Will definitely be repurchasing.
Love it!
So far I am loving all the Charlotte Tilbury products I have purchased and this one is no exception. The packaging is so pretty, and the product inside is fantastic and avery finely milled. I have fair skin, and this bronzer a great colour for me. The highlighter is very pretty, with a shimmer to it and a little goes a long way. I do use this with the CT contouring brush and have had great results.
Leaves your skins velvety-soft
I decided to give this moisturiser a try after seeing so many make-up artists talk about how great it was. This is a wonderful product, it absorbs into my skin quickly and leaves it plumped up looking and velvety soft all day. I have combination skin and this did not make my t-zone super-oily, and yet left the skin under my eyes (that is normally dry and sensitive) really nicely moisturised. Will be re-purchasing when this one runs out.
Loved the sample - bought the full-sized!
At Christmas my family bought me a few goodies from Sephora, and a sample of this eye balm was included. It sat around until 2 weeks ago, when I thought maybe I should get it used up. Yes, I am so guilty of judging a product by it's packaging - which is a bit bland in this case. Was I in for a pleasant surprise - this is fantastic! I am 43, so wrinkles around my eye area is a concern, they were definitely looking much better and less defined after only a week of using the sample (I was previously using Lancome High-Resolution Eye). The under-eye area looks much firmer as well, and brightened. I went out last week and bought some as I seriously didn't want to go without once the sample was used up. It's on the pricey side, but if you get the chance to sample this product, I highly recommend it!
