Charlotte Tilbury Makeup...

[Bronwyn]

Kiko's is great. Not sure if Ive tried the palette you want but I love the pencils & polish (they have a ton). It kinda reminds me like if mac/inglot - nyx had a baby with great prices, lol.. definitely make sure u pop in one before you go home. Don't know if its a perm thing but they have a really great blush and also bronzer duos. There all over europe but where are you Bronwyn..? cuz you might actually have one closer to you than you think.

Good to know! that's such a good combo. yeah, their powder products look quite nice. I'll be in england, and there's one in the area I'll be staying in.

So I like my fallen angel quad, but unpopular opinion, it was a bit disappointing. Ignoring the fact that it was too pricey for the amount of product, I just found it had to be built up so much to get colour payoff on the eyes. There's a nice end result, but it wasn't that special. Though I do enjoy the texture.

Felt the same way about this palette so Im glad I wasn't the only one. I like the look I get with it but I definitely felt like some of the colors had to be built up & I tried different brushes & techniques too. I really like this palette but after all the build up and waiting for it I'm disappointed that I don't love it.

Yeah, and now I'm defs not buying her regular quads because of this.

the US has a cpl stores but yes definitely grab it when your in the UK, the selection in the EU in always better. and definitely ck out those duos I told u about. I tried them in the store lastime I went and they were really nice, kinda regret not grabbing them. There's a little pharmacy I usually go to when Im there to stock up on some of my skincare, I ask my friend what the name is cuz I forgot & message u it when I can k hun. **also go on the website b4 u go cuz they usually have coupons/printouts that u can use in the kiko store

 

[Mimi702]

Yeah, and now I'm defs not buying her regular quads because of this.

I really wanted a few of them too, like the rock, rebel & muse. But definitely gonna try them now 1st b4 I buy anymore & my fallen angel on was so tiny, I didn't realize her palettes were so small too.
*Ooh since you'll be in the UK, definitely make a list of things you want to try in person while your there cuz you'll have a bunch of great stores like Selfridges that carry brands you wouldn't normally get or would have to buy online only from.

Gorgeous!!! What do you think of the FA palette??

Hello Bronwyn & Mimi---I have not yet used my FA palette, my very first CT eyeshadow palette ever. Based on your comments I'll approach it w/my brushes that
pickup and distribute product most effectively and hope that it helps a bit. I know I'll be comparing it to my Chanel Rêve D' Orient palette.

 

[Medgal07]

I was never interested in the regular quads. Based on my experience once I get around to using my FA palette I may never gain that interest.

HI hun

yes definitely, thats what I had to did. Its really nice & the texture is beautiful but guess I thought the 2 top colors would just be like bamm- on & done and I found myself dipping in the palette to apply more product & really not wanting to ruin the stars. Let me know how it goes babe. I love the look but I definitely think I like my chanel more, but than again I might be bias cuz I love my chanel products, lol.

I mean, also I find there's a lot of decent cheaper eyeshadow palettes out there, drugstore included

 

[Medgal07]

Yeah, it's a lot harder to access stuff in canada, and I am mostly unable to shop online unless I pay a friend in cash beforehand, but I can't do that very often. Yeah, the duos do look nice. ooh love coupons.
Yeah, I'm thinking mostly boots and kiko, I don't wanna get really pricey stuff cause the exchange rate sucks, and tax is 20%.
Yeah, it's disappointing. Like, the shades are nice, but not very intense.

I guess that surprised me the most because the swatches all looked super pigmented. I don't mind paying extra for quality products but not because someone slapped
their name on it and called it a day. Well, it should be very interesting when I finally get around to using it.

Yeah, tho ppl often press down quite hard in swatches, and also swatches often look more intense than actual eye swatches, maybe because of the oilyness of the eyes. I do really like the packaging. The shades themselves are nice, but not really a full look in one.

For the price the product should be excellent and you shouldn't have to try to work it to make it perform as it should. ... I'm sorry you felt disappointed but thanks for letting us know. You just saved me a bit of cash I think there is lot of hype surrounding her line but I'm not sure of all products really perform ...

I really like it as they're colors that I wear on a daily basis, but the darkest shade is sort of powdery in my opinion, but I don't plan on using it all that often either. I do find I have to pack quite a bit of the product onto my brushes in order to get the color I want, which I wish wasn't the case as I feel I'm using up a lot of product but most is being eaten by my brush lol (and I don't have bad brushes!)

Yeah, also since it's a smaller amount of product, it kinda wastes it when you have to build up so much. I did find using mac satin taupe helped my look be a bit more intense.

Forgive me if someone has already posted, but there's free international shipping on net-a-porter. I got another CT matte l/s (Sexy Sienna). Note that you have to choose United Kingdom as your country. They take off VAT so mine came to around $30 excluding any cc fees. Much better than eBay!! Her mattes are my favorite matte formula of any brand I've tried so far.
