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.
Oh Thats nice! I have been wanting to get Bond girl forever! $30 is same pricing as in the US maybe even lesser!

Oh?! Even shipping to the usa? Interesting!
Yes! It's such a great deal because they're shipping is normally quite expensive. Says it's valid to "08.12.14." I ordered yesterday, and it will be here Wednesday. Love Net-a-Porter!

LOL I got Bond Girl and Amazing Grace. I did NOT need those, but that deal was too good to turn down! It was cheaper than what they sell for here!!!

Nice!! I think you will love Amazing Grace! I have that one and I ordered Sexy Sienna. I also wanted Lost Cherry (due to frontrowbeauty's review) but I have to be kinda good right now.

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.
which kinda sucks cuz we shouldn't have to use mac or any another product to compensate after we throw down a bunch of cash for an item *with even less product than normal since its le too.

I have used various brushes with Fallen Angel - her own blending and smoke brush, my Shu no. 10 natural hair brush, Laura Mercier, Billy B, and had no trouble getting great colour payoff with what seems to me to be normal application. No fall out, no patchiness. I have two other palettes - Golden Goddess and Dolce Vita - and I find this does have a different "finish" in the pan. But applies beautifully, as do the others. This has the same sort of finish to me as Tom Ford Nude Dip, which is also a wet/dry shadow. Haven't used either palette wet yet but keen to do so.

Just wanted to add that I have not been disappointed with anything I've gotten from Charlotte Tilbury, and that now includes the blush, powder and foundation (LOVE them), powder eye pencil and Rock N Kohl, lipsticks and glosses, Magic Cream, Wonder Glow, and the Bronze and Glow. (I'm NOT going to do the math on all of that!!!) I haven't tried the mascara yet, but soon.

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!)
I still have not yet used my palette. Have you tried using it w/a slightly damp brush? I've heard that like my
Chanel Reve D' Orient, Fallen Angel can also be used wet or dry.

I'm glad you shared this just as I asked the question about having used the FA quad wet/dry. I also read that FA's
formula differs from the permanent range of quads, and that would explain it. Along with TF Nude Dip I also have
Emerald Lust, which can also be used wet or dry.

I've just been really pleased with her products. The only one I probably won't repurchase is the powder pencil Audrey. It's a little drier and I find that I get just as nice (if not better) an effect with Tom Ford Espresso, the Marc Jacobs liners or Urban Decay. I actually like that the palettes don't weigh a ton because it makes them nicer to travel with. And since I can't remember the last time I finished a palette ... I'm ok with the amount of product in them (even FA, which I know has less - but so does Nude Dip, so I can only assume it's the wet/dry formula accounting for lack of product).

I'm confident in saying that what I've tried from CT has been awesome. I only have three lipsticks, two lip liners and an eye shadow palette, but all have performed well! Especially the lipsticks, so I'm excited to receive my matte ones in the mail soon!!

I have a youtube channel and blog and I wanted to do a best and worst of Charlotte Tilbury but I wasn't able to, I love basically everything I've got! I have the Glamour Muse full set, the retoucher, two beach sticks, lipsticks, colour chameleon... and I like all of the things I've tried. There are always small details you can pick at but overall I'm impressed at the brand and I feel I want it all!!

I've honestly been pleased with the few CT products that I've tried. I still have not yet used my FA palette----so much makeup, so little time. In addition to FA I have the
Wonderglow Beauty Flash Primer, Film Star Bronze & Glow, Face Sculpt & Highlight compact and one lipstick in Hepburn Honey. I don't get concerned over palette
amounts either because I have sooooo many that like you, and I suspect most people, I've never finished an eyeshadow palette.

Three good endorsements!!! It's nice when you find a brand and love the products.

I am a fan of all the products that I have tried from this line, with the exception of the glitter "pop" shadow in some of the eye palettes. Other than that I like every product. Plus I like the other 3 shadows in the eye palettes that I have. Thankfully the FA palette (which is officially on regular rotation now) has no glitter pop shade. I have had no issues with the FA palette. I think that it is lovely!

I even like the contour/shading brush. It is a lot lighter than my other brushes, but it works beautifully for what it is designed to do.

I agree with the glitter pop shadow. I don't necessarily hate glitter but it hardly has any payoff, it all stays on my finger instead of my eyelid. It's specially bad in Glamour Muse, it's supposed to be purple but I can't get colour at all

Please post pictures Glammy. I have not paid much attention to CT. I have looked at her makeup online and I am not sure what would look good on me.

As a woc, what would you recommend for another woc?
Yes, I absolutely would! I haven't tried Filmstar yet, but other than that there's nothing of hers I wouldn't recommend. It's all amazing!!

Every woman needs the Bitch Perfect lipstick in her lot! Oh, and Glammy, her blushes are YESSSS!
