Charlotte Tilbury Mini Haul and Review


Ever since we laid eyes on the Charlotte Tilbury Film Star Bronze and Glow we have had it on our list of must purchase beauty items. However, way back in March when summer was but a distant dream another version of the famous Bronze and Glow started to make an appearance on blogs and YouTube.

This new version was the Norman Parkinson collaboration FILMSTAR BRONZE & GLOW (SUN TAN & SUN LIGHT) We had to have it for our summer holiday! Not only did it look completely beautiful with a stunning vintage photograph of Jerry Hall on the front taken for British Vogue on Montego Bay in 1975, it was a cream product and would be totally perfect to wear in the 100 degree Florida sun.

The very day the collection was released we ordered the coveted item and decided to throw in the stunning Eyes to Mesmerise cream eyeshadow in Bette to make the order worthwhile! It looked too beautiful to pass up.

The delivery arrived very quickly in the most gorgeous Charlotte Tilbury box. It was wrapped in tissue paper and so beautifully presented that it was almost a shame to tear into it. The new cream version of the Film Star Bronze and Glow is highly pigmented and using a light hand (and the Real Techniques Bold Metals 301 Flat Contour Brush) the bronzer gives a perfect amount of contour and warms the face very naturally. 



The highlighter in the palette gives a very luminous look when applied and has a slight golden sheen. We are still experimenting to find the perfect brush to apply the product however even using your fingertips to lightly apply the product to your cheekbones it still gives a pretty golden glow. 

We are excited to use the Eyes to Mesmerize over the summer as the colour is a burnished golden chocolate shade with the most beautiful sheen. It will perfect swept across the entire lid for a quick summer eye look.

Purchasing these two Charlotte Tilbury products has definitely made us eager to try more from the brand. Charlotte herself is so passionate about her products and her passion and enthusiasm rubs off on you when you watch her YouTube channel. We will most definitely be purchasing more Charlotte Tilbury products in the future. Watch this space!

Do you have a favourite Charlotte Tilbury product? We would love to hear your recommendations!
