Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Bond Girl


On my recent trip to London there was one item on my wish list that I had to get: a Charlotte Tilbury lipstick. I have seen a few CT products in so many YouTube videos and they all look so pretty. As of now, this lovely brand is available in the Netherlands but two months ago that was not the case, so you would probably understand my excitement when I finally got my hands on one of her make-up products.

My sister and I went to Covent Garden and also payed a visit to the Charlotte Tilbury Boutique. The store is gorgeous and full of all the amazing products that I had seen so many times through my laptop screen. I immediately walked over to the lipstick area and swatched many of them on my hand. Yes, I was that crazy girl whose hand looked like a colouring book. In the end I went with ''Bond Girl'', a gorgeous rosy lipstick with a slight brownish undertone. It looks very natural and is not as bold as ''Glastonberry'', which is also a colour I really like. I assumed I would wear ''Bond Girl'' more often than a dark plum, so ''Bond Girl'' is my perfect first Charlotte Tilbury purchase!

One of the main things I love is the packaging. Everything about it is so luxurious and makes it a real treat to apply. The lipstick itself is gorgeous too and I love the matte formula. I like matte lipsticks in general because they stay on for a longer period of time and look amazing. Since the whole Kylie Jenner lip hype you can't really ignore matte formulas anyway. 

The application is really easy. The shape of the lipstick is a bit different than any other lipstick I own but still applies like a dream. The formula is very creamy and not drying at all which I find is not very common amongst matte lipsticks. The colour ''Bond Girl'' is also one of the prettiest colours ever. It's the perfect mixture of pink and brown. It stays on for ages too and looks so lovely on the lips. 

I always get many compliments when I wear it so this lipstick is definitely a keeper. Also the fact that Charlotte Tilbury is now being sold in a luxury department store in Amsterdam is music to my ears. I do find many of her products a bit pricey so you probably won't see me stocking up on all of her products soon. But a little make-up treat from time to time won't heart me, right?

What is your favourite Charlotte Tilbury product?
