The Best Charlotte Tilbury Makeup to Buy

Everyone has been talking about Charlotte Tilbury products for a couple of years now, and I finally decided to try some of her products during a recent trip to Nordstrom.

I did not realize how BIG of a name she is until my Nordstrom visit – did you guys know that she has done Victoria’s Secret fashion show makeup? That’s where Supermodel Body was inspired. You know – to get the perfect model-esque sheen that’s believable and NOT Edward Cullen. 

The sales associate was showing me everything, and never have I been (almost) persuaded to buy literally everything. I’m very good at saying “no”, but I needed everything. The quality, packaging, and performance is that amazing. In addition, everything is cruelty free, and unfortunately you don’t often find that with luxury makeup brands. 

When Charlotte Tilbury sent me some more goodies to try, I was so excited because I knew I would love everything. I have been using several Charlotte Tilbury products for about a month now, and I want to share my ride or die products with you.

1) LEGENDARY BROWS

Oh.my.god. This stuff gives you supermodel brows. Think anti-Instagram brows. I use a brow pencil and finish up my brow look with this brow gel. It’s not sticky, crispy, or flakey like many other brow gels I have tried. See my full supermodel brow tutorial HERE.

2) HOT LIPS in KIM K W

Starting with a disclaimer on this one – this will most likely not work out well if you have medium to dark skin. This color is a true nude pink without looking dead. And if you want to channel your inner Kim K, get this color! It’s hydrating but it stays on very well. Plus I am obsessed with the packaging. So glam, and these lipsticks look so pretty on top of any vanity.

3) MATTE REVOLUTION in PILLOWTALK

Pillow talk lipstick matches perfectly with the Pillowtalk liner – I will get to that one in a minute. Don’t let the “matte” in the name of the lipstick scare you if you’re not a matte kind of gal. Had I not known that this was a matte lipstick, I wouldn’t have every guessed that it was. It’s not shiny, but it is not drying AT ALL. Seriously the best wearable matte formula I have ever used. The color is incredible. It matches most lip colors if you have light to dark skin. It looks natural, like you’re not wearing lipstick. Love that.

4) CHEEK TO CHIC ‘SEX ON FIRE’ 

Not too pink, not too brown, not too orange. This blush is just the perfect shade for most skin tones. It is natural looking, and gives you a radiant & flushed look. Not powdery at all, either. 

5) LIP CHEAT in ‘PILLOW TALK’

If you’re like me, you probably have a million drugstore lip liners. Yes, those are great. But then I tried this baby, and it LASTS. Lasts through eating, talking, drinking, etc. It is smooth and the color is the most perfect ‘your lips but better’ color.

Seriously, if you have not tried Charlotte Tilbury products, go and try them out! You will fall in love. 

If you have some C. Tilbury favorites, please let me know in the comments!

xoxo, Lynn

if you can’t go more than a day without washing if you can’t go more than a day without washing your hair (like me), let me introduce you to this 2-in-1 shampoo/conditioner combo that is truly so nourishing 🪄🧴 
@hairstorystudio NEW WASH was developed because most shampoos weaken the hair and strip out vital oils since most rely on detergent. New Wash is a cleanser but doesn’t contain any detergent & has a proprietary blend of essential oils & saturated cleansers. 
My hair is never greasy after using it and my dry AF scalp loves it! I’ve been using it for a couple of months now and I’m truly impressed by how nourishing it is for both my hair + scalp. ✨

I love trying new products and these are some ✨new✨faves of mine I have to share with you:

@saintjanebeauty lip oil: love a high-shine gloss and this is ITTT. It’s actually called a lip oil which did scare me before trying it, but really just feels like a gloss. It’s not greasy at all. the sparkly pink is my fave 💖 

@herbivorebotanicals moon fruit: calling all pregnant/breastfeeding mamas! this product is a retinol-alternative serum that's clinically-proven to treat signs of aging with 1% bakuchiol + plant peptides. I started using it a few months ago and really love it. I do miss retinol (still breastfeeding) but this is a gentler option. 

Burdock oil: I had no idea about this oil until I researched ingredients for the best scalp treatment and this is one of the ingredients I use in my DIY scalp treatment. However I’ve also been using it on my face to double cleanse because it is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. 

@lysbeautyofficial blush: this is the color humble and it’s the prettiest orangey pink which is fab for summer. I’m a cream blush convert because it’s so much more natural looking than powders. & this one is matte, so it won’t look greasy ✨
Your most beautiful life is meant to bring out you Your most beautiful life is meant to bring out your core values. 
I’ve always had a vision for my most beautiful life. But with anything, it needed some refinement (as with everything in life).
Since I have become deeply entrenched in coaching, I have been able to identify my core (vs acquired) values to be able to design my day/life. 🌸 
Some questions to ask yourself to do the same:

I’m your dream day, what are you wearing? 
What values are you living by?
What does your environment look and feel like?
Where do you live?
What activities bring you energy?
A gooddddd mint chip smoothie had been on my mind A gooddddd mint chip smoothie had been on my mind lately and I’d never actually had one, mainly because they’re usually made with banana….and I cannot stand bananas. SO. Knowing that mango can easily replace bananas when it comes to cooking, I picked up a bag of frozen mangos and went to town on crafting my own recipe. 

It legit tastes like mint chocolate chip ice cream 🍦

recipe:
🧊 ice
🥭 frozen mango
🥥 coconut cream
🥬 spinach 
🍁 maple syrup
🍬 peppermint extract 
🥜 almond butter
🥣 oats
🍫 Chocolate chips (I also add these in to the smoothie in addition to on top)
