The colour, the texture, the pigment... all perfect. This lipstick has easy application as the pigment means it doesn't need to be applied with a hundred different strokes. It isn't too sticky and dries really fast. It's also rather creamy which means its not harsh on the lips.

Charlotte Tilbury K.I.S.S.I.N.G Review
Charlotte Tilbury K.I.S.S.I.N.G This is my fail-safe recipe for perfect lips… Enriched with a breakthrough, secret ingredient, the Lipstick Tree, an anti-oxidant that naturally protects lips from UV damage and external pollution leaving them cashmere soft and irresistible. Blended with special waxes and clever light-diffusing pigments for pert, full-bodied, ultra-brilliant lips that ensure you leave a lasting impression!
K.I.S.S.I.N.G is my signature range of 10 lipsticks curated with modern and classic icons in mind. It is a capsule colour wardrobe of backstage nudes to red carpet reds made to suit any skin tone. Perfect, full, kissable lips really do grow on trees…
• The Lip Stick Tree loves your lips, protecting them from UV damage and fighting oxidative stress so that lips are left soft, pert, soothed and hydrated. A tropical plant originating from America, the plump yet prickly red fruits appear like pouting lips that blow kisses at you as you walk by. The colour from its seeds was originally used by Indigenous American people to paint and protect their lips.
• Also contains light-diffusing pigments that give lips a brilliant, luminous, multi-dimensional finish - they capture the light across the lips and reflect it back out for a full-bodied effect.
• A special blend of waxes means this lipstick is a dream to use and glides over the contours of your lips. The result is colour rich and buildable, the formula does not bleed outside the lip line.
• Paraben free.

I have the Pillow Talk shade and it matches my lip colour perfectly. It feels nice and even though it’s matte, my lips don’t feel dry afterwards, in fact, they feel better. I only have to reapply after eating or drinking and it has a subtle smell, not necessarily fragranced but not unpleasant. The bullet is a nice shape for applying and I don’t need a few layers as it’s opaque immediately.
The packaging is luxurious and sturdy, and the magnetic close is convenient. The only sad thing is that you can start to see some scratches on the ridges as it gets knocked around in my handbag a fair bit because I use it almost daily for work. Sometimes I layer a lighter shade on top in the middle of my lips.
Tips: I use the matching lip pencil which I find keeps it lasting a bit longer
After reading many great reviews about Charlotte's Kissing lipsticks, I knew I had to get my hands on them and since it's not a product easily accessible in NZ stores I had to go online to purchase and then finding somewhere that ships to NZ without breaking the bank was madness but eventually I got my hands on a mini set of 3 flavours and the are devine. Full of colour, creamy texture, good lustre, easy to apply and wearable.
