Can't be better (unless it was cheaper...)

The hype is real with Charlotte Tilbury! I watch a lot of Youtube and in particular I love Amelia Liana who swears by the shade Pillow Talk. So when I got some birthday money this was one of the things at the top of my wishlist. I bought this from Nordstrom as I had a few other things that I wanted at the same time. Then I used my YouShop to get it from the states to NZ.

The packaging of these is so high end. I absolutely love it. The pencil is gold shade with the colour at the end which is great if you have a few so you know what you are picking out of your collection. Even the lid is the golden shade, very beautiful. The part that you would usually expect to be wooden is actually creamy white wood, looks lovely.

Now this product is named lip cheat is that it is designed to allow you to 'cheat' bigger lips by drawing along the outer edge of your natural lip. This is extremely easy to do with this product as it is very creamy to draw on, but also very opaque so you can't see the colour of your lips underneath. The colour itself is a nice darkened pink shade, looks quite natural. My favourite way to wear this is by itself with a clear lip balm on top which is nice. They claim that this is waterproof... why this is important I'm not sure, but it does set on the lips very well (in a non drying sort of way). As it goes on quite dry it does last really well on your lips, you can even touch it and not get any colour off! So wear time is quite good, however I feel like if you use a product on top that isn't that long lasting it often comes off with it. I must say this is getting used up very quickly, I think as it is so creamy you seem to use a lot with each use. Disappointing given the price.

Overall my first foray into Charlotte Tilbury products has been very successful and I can't wait to try more (once my bank account balance allows it)!

Definately not overhyped, this is mere magic

I have heard so much about how amazing Charlotte Tilbury products were before I started my journey of discovering their products that even I was sceptical of the hype but wow this lip pencil is going to take something pretty epic to stop me using it under every lipstick I own!

Packaging wise this is a wooden lip pencil which is great news as I do prefer the crisp sharpness that a wooden pencil give you versus and automatic pencil that at times can be quite fragile and not forgiving if you apply too much pressure upon application. Pretty in it's rose gold toned wrapping and luxurious touches of their logo and detailing with a glossy coat to protect the body of the pencil plus give it that little bit of extra glamour. The lid fits so snuggly and like to stay on! keeping the nib of the pencil free from any damage or dirt collection.

Formula is a creamy texture that softly glides over the contours of your natural lip lines and has a firmness that allows you to keep those lines neat and crisp, but soft enough to bring the lines over the lips to blur and create a even tone in preparation of lipsticks. Without any feathering, bleeding into the skin surrounding the lips or toughing and catching the motion of the liner is sheer breathtaking for a pencil and in the shade pillow talk gives your lips that plump look that so many of us crave.

I currently own the shades Pillow Talk and Bad Romance.

Pillow Talk is a soft pink beige nude that will suit almost every skin tone and is great for using with any lip shade as a base and liner.

Bad Romance is a deep aubergine purple that is great to line your lips in preparation for those dark vampy colours.

Another great thing about these lip liners are that they are strong fast and even when you are removing your makeup at the end of the day you will find the lip liner still there under the lipstick remains holding fast. However they wash easily off with an oil cleanser, warm water and cotton cloth.

I seriously can not rave enough about this product and will continue to hype it up for very valid reason.

My favourite lip liner.

I purchased the Charlote Tilbury lip cheat in Pillow Talk after hearing it being called a must-have all over Instagram. I don't have an issue with dry lips, however lip liners in the past have often dried out my lips quickly and made my lipstick appear flaky. To avoid this, I only apply lip liner to line the outside of my lips, however this results in an obvious line, particularly after a few hours. The Charlotte Tilbury lip cheat in pillow talk changed my lipstick routine. I now reach for this lip liner almost every time I wear lipstick, not just on days where I really, really need it to last. This is because I notice zero dryness with this product, even after days of use. It makes no impact to the condition of my lips, but makes a beautiful difference to the appearance and longevity of my lipstick.

This lip liner is in bronze packaging and can be sharpened rather than rolled up. It isn't the most luxurious Charlotte Tilbury product, but it is beautiful for a lip liner. Inside is a soft, smooth lip liner that still remains a lip liner rather than a creamy lipstick. I personally wouldn't describe it as 'velvety' but to me that is a positive as velvety formulas tend to shift on my lips or fade quickly. This product is soft, but it still latches onto the lips. It is suitable for lining the lips, or lining and filling in.

The shade of this lipstick is difficult to describe as it changes a lot depending on the lips that it is applied to. On my hand, it is a very pink nude, however on my lips it deepens. This is really going to depend on the person.

I don't struggle with lipstick bleeding, so I use lip liner to enhance the pigmentation and longevity of my lipstick. When combined with CT Bitch Perfect, my lips are the perfect nude. It enhances the colour of the lipstick and makes a significant difference to how long my lipstick lasts. I would go as far as to say that this lip liner provides an extra 34 hours of fully applied, pigmented lipstick. I will repurchase this lip liner when it runs out, and I'm currently not searching for any other lip liners.

Tips: Line AND fill in the lips to enhance the longevity of your lipstick.

Stunning little gem

I LOVE these lip liners. They are absolutely perfect for over lining the lips, something about them just makes over-lining look so natural! I have a few shades of this. Only downside is they are very expensive.

The best lip liner I have ever used

I bought the colour pillow talk to match the lipstick and gloss that I also bought from Charlotte Tilbury. It matches the lipstick perfectly and makes your lips look amazing.

Tips: Try not to overline too much

The first lip cheat that's actually worked

I splashed out on this because after hearing so many amazing things about it I just had to try it.

Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk is I believe where the obession with Pillow Talk began.

The shade is a pinky brown, the texture is smooth and hydrating and the liner defines the lips easily, with no drag.

I would say it is the best lip liner I've tried because of its super smooth application and texture.

I never usually overline my lips, but with this liner I can and it actually looks good.

It's a winner for me.

Fabulous Lip Liner

This lip liner is great. It has a slightly firm texture without too much slip, making it long-lasting and easy to work with, yet it's still creamy enough to glide on the lips smoothly. The formula is very pigmented, and I also love the fact that this lip liner is a sharpenable pencil rather than a twist-up. My favourite shades are 'Pillow Talk' which is a beautiful neutral pink colour and 'Iconic Nude' which is a slightly warm-toned brown.

Tips: Just a heads up, the 'Pillow Talk' lip liner is a totally different colour to the matching lipstick! I find that the lip liner is much cooler and more pinky, while the lipstick is quite warm, reddish and orangey.

Just lovely

Feels nice on, not heavy, doesn’t crumble or break, and sharpens well. I have this in Pillow Talk as I heard it was a universal nude shade, and I have had much difficulty finding a nude shade that suits me. I find this lip pencil great! Lasts several hours, and looks very natural, my lips but better. Pricier than your average lip liner, but you get what you pay for.

Tips: Goes very well with matte revolution lipstick

Only lip liner brand you’ll need

Great pigment, absolutely gorgeous colours, no transfer or crumbling, I use the colour pillow talk which is just a slightly darker shade then my natural lips so it’s great to wear by itself with a bit of lip balm for those “natural” days. Rate all of CT products!!! 10/10

Works well

I love this lip pencil. It’s creamy and goes on easily, and it sharpens well. It helps my lipstick “stay on” longer as it survives better than the lipstick so it keeps the edges of my lips coloured. I have an uneven cupids bow so I use it to correct that. I have the colour Pillow Talk so it’s not too bad if the middle of my lipstick wears off when drinking my morning coffee, because it’s a very natural shade that almost perfectly matches my lip colour.

The packaging is lovely. It is a standard pencil with a cap but the colours make it look luxurious and I like it better than the twist lip liners.

Tips: It’s easier to use a sharpened pencil if you want a precise line
