Although it hasn't been that long
since the launch, Charlotte Tilbury is quickly becoming one of this century’s
most iconic beauty brands. Working as a makeup artists to some of the world’s
most beautiful women for over 20 years, her new brand has the tools to give
every woman the ability to look and feel gorgeous. As an admirer of Tilbury and
her philosophy that every woman can conquer the world with the right makeup,
I've been dying to get my hands on one of her many amazing products. Flicking
through her collection on Selfridges, and in pursuit of the perfect bridal palette
(I'm getting married a year in October...hopefully...), I came across the Golden Goddess and admittedly clicked 'add to cart'!
Arriving on Tuesday, I couldn’t wait
to try it out! Now, admittedly, when I saw the colours in the flesh I was kind
of pessimistic that the copper tones would work with my deathly pale skin, but
when I actually applied it I think it kind of worked...
The palette comes with four shades,
each intended for a pacific purpose: 1. Prime 2. Enhance 3. Smoke and 4. Pop.
Following that guideline, I worked the shades in order and to suite my pacific
needs. Separately, each colour is gorgeous in its own right, but together they
blend seamlessly to create a gorgeous balance or gold’s and bronze's which, for
me, greatly enhanced my green eyes, which I love! I used the Real Techniques
Shading Brush to apply the shadows, and each one effortlessly blended onto the
eye and kind of made it impossible to apply too much or too little, which is
great for people who are perhaps a bit nervous when it comes to eye makeup. I
also found that it lasted all day, I applied it at 9:00am and when it came to
taking it off again at 5:00pm it was still in the same condition as it was when
I applied it, great for someone like me who hates the fuss of re-application
during the day! Although it stays in place all day, it's easy to remove when
you want to, which in my opinion is fantastic because I hate it when
you're left with shadow stains that just won’t budge. Although I love the
palette, I definitely think one of the Tilbury eyeliners is needed to add more
definition on the water line, which I'll promptly be purchasing!
Thanks for reading x
this seems like the perfect stress-free everyday palette: it's long wearing and your eyes look freaking incredible with it, and you have convinced me to add this to my bucket list of makeup I wanna try:)
