Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick and Lip Liner Review

Guys! I’ve been really getting into my lipsticks recently and am really excited to share some of these gorgeous new Charlotte Tilbury offerings, that landed on my doorstep recently, with you all.

At Your Lip Service is a really lovely set of three lipsticks in a super cute little box. Just look at this design. That’s one of the things I love the most about Charlotte Tilbury – the packaging. I’m a sucker for cute packaging and have been known to be a bit of a package hoarder in the past (I’ve turned over a new leaf this year…in most cases!).

In this gorgeous little set there are two Matte Revolution lipsticks in shades Legendary Queen, and The Queen, and then one K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipstick in shade The Duchess.

Legendary Queen is like Walk of Shame but with more intensity. It is a soft neutral wine shade, which is great for this time of year. I really like wearing it when I’ve got a cheeky Mustard colour jumper on. Winter colour combo win. The matte formula s

The Queen is a bold fuchsia, which I think will look great in the summer on a night out. I had to make sure I had lip liner on with this one to make it stay put, but I loved the look.

The Duchess is such a good everyday lipstick (I’ve worn it nearly every day since getting it) and has a nice, subtle gloss effect. It is a bit like Pillow Talk but is in a different formula so looks slightly different. I LOVE it and have seen it all over social media over the last week, so it would appear I’m not the only one.

The Lip Cheat Lip Liners are LOVELY. Such a good range of shades, great quality and they go on like a dream.

In terms of lipstick/lip liner combinations, Legendary Queen goes great with the Walk of Shame lip liner.

The Queen goes lovely with Pink Venus.

And my personal favourite combo is The Duchess with Pillow Talk – SUCH a fab combination.

You can use the lip cheat lip liner pencils to resize, reshape and redefine your lips. They blend in so well and are really easy to apply. Even for a lip liner novice like me.

From top to bottom:

pillow talk
bond girl
supersize me
hot gossip
love trap

Look how well they stay on even after wiping.

All in all, a wonderful selection of lipsticks and lip liners that will have me covered for all occasions and that I will be wearing again and again and again.

*These products were gifted to me but I chose to write about them and share them.

‘Each of us as citizens, has a role to play in c ‘Each of us as citizens, has a role to play in creating a better world for our children.’ - Nelson Mandela ❤️
It’s not enough though, is it? We’ve always h It’s not enough though, is it?

We’ve always had diverse toys in our house (not enough, but I’m working on it ❤️), but when questioned ‘why do you buy your kids Black dolls?’, I’ve faltered and answered incorrectly. I would respond saying ‘because that’s the doll Isla liked the best. What does it matter? We’re all human’, rather than questioning why that person is questioning it in the first place.

In a massive learning curve this week, where I am actively trying to become an anti-racist ally, not just anti-racist/non racist in general, I have found so many shortcomings in my effort to educate my kids and in my own attitudes towards race. But this isn’t about me. So here are some resources I’d like to share on top of the ones shared in my stories.

Some books to read:
Me and White Supremacy - Layla F. Saad.
Why I’m No Longer Talking To White People About Race - Reni Eddo-Lodge.
How to argue with a racist - Adam Rutherford.
Brit(ish) - Afua Hirsch.
White Fragility - Robin Diangelo.
I Am Not Your Baby Mother - Candice Brathwaite.
So You Want to Talk About Race - Ijeoma Oluo.

Diverse kids books:
Anti Racist Baby - X. Kendi.
Riley Can Be Anything -Davina Hamilton.
Look Up - Nathan Bryon.
Mae Among The Stars - Roda Ahmed.
The Mega Magic Hair Swap - Rochelle Humes.
Let’s Talk About Race - Julius Lester.
Welcome To Our World - Moira Butterfield and Harriet Lynas.
This Book Is Antiracist - Tiffany Jewell.
The Extraordinary Gardener - Sam Boughton.
Let The Children March - Monica Clark-Robinson.
Ruby’s Worry - Tom Percival.
A Kids Book About Racism - Jelani Memory.

Some things to watch:
When They See Us.
13th.
Who Killed Malcom X.
Time: The Kalief Browder Story.
Explained: The Racial Wealth Gap.
Dear White People.
I am Not Your Negro.

My to do list:
- Sign more petitions.
- Donate to more causes.
- Listen to podcasts and share.
- Encourage changes in the school curriculum so that my children, and their classmates, get a better, much more rounded and diverse education.
- Call things out.
- Have honest/open conversations.
- Share content.
- To keep educating myself, whilst never expecting others to do it for me.

It’s just a starting point.

Thanks for listening x

I can never pretend to understand, but I will always stand.

I’ve been on a huge learning curve this week and have, shamefully, come to the realisation, which I should have a long time ago, that it’s not enough to just not be racist. We must also be actively anti-racist and do everything in our power to ensure our children are too.

Today is a day to stop, listen, support, educate ourselves, donate, sign petitions, take action in any way we can, big and small, to make sure that everyone knows we stand with our fellow humans, family and friends. But we can’t just do this today. We must do it each and every day going forward ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻
And breathe! First day without both my babies for And breathe! First day without both my babies for the first time in 10 weeks today and it couldn’t have gone better. Both had wonderful days and were full of stories when they got home. I said over on stories last night, which got an incredible response so thank you to everyone who reached out, that I am completely comfortable with my choice to send the kids back to school and nursery but would never, ever judge anyone who felt different. We are all in different boats in this storm we’ve found ourselves in and what works for my family, might not work for yours. I have deliberately stayed out of the ‘are you sending your kids back or not?’ debate as it started to feel like another toxic discussion, in the media and on social media, that was resulting in yet another parenting divide.
I could have had the kids in this whole time, under key worker provision, but tried my best to hang on till the phased reopenings that I hoped would happen when they did. They were what I was aiming towards. Don’t get me wrong, I have LOVED having the kids at home together for such a sustained period, we have made lots of memories and learnt so much more about each other, but mixed in with the nature of my job and the fact that @thisdadalife is deployed and so I’m on my own with minimal support, I couldn’t have gone on much longer.
When I got in from dropping them off today, and as I went upstairs to work at my desk, I literally collapsed on the stairs and almost cried in relief. Relief that we made it through, as dramatic as that sounds. I don’t think I realised the toll it was taking mentally as I was constantly running on adrenaline.
I am so happy to get a bit more balance back and to, most importantly, feel like a better mum again. Not a snappy trying to juggle it all 24/7 with no break mum.
If you sent your kids back today, whether you wanted to or not, I’m with you and support you.
If you have kept them home in your bubble for longer, I’m with you and support you.
If you’re still unsure what to do and are undecided, I am with you and support you.
Nobody knows the full extent of someone else’s circumstances and we have to stop and realise that before we judge anyone else ❤️

This is the first year in YEARS that I have felt ok wearing a bikini. And I feel like it’s more down to how strong I feel, rather than how I look. Whatever it is, I hope it continues ❤️
On another note, how tanned does the @filterbymollymae fake tan make you look! 🙌🏻
(Both bikini and cover up are from last year).
