Charlotte Tibury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Glastonberry & The Vintage Vamp Luxary Palette

I was lucky enough to receive my first bits of Charlotte Tilbury makeup for Christmas. It was a brand that i had been lusting after and had wanted to try for ages, and the Glastonberry lipstick and The Vintage Vamp palette were top of my wishlist.
The first thing that instantly stood out to me as i excitedly unwrapped them on Christmas day is just how well thought out even the packaging and presentation of the makeup is. I am a massive sucker for a nice bit of packaging but Charlotte Tilbury is something else entirely, even the box the makeup came in was designed with the signature burgundy style with the rose gold accent, and the makeup was wrapped inside matching tissue paper.
Both the Matte Revolution lipsticks and the Luxury Palettes are packaged inside their burgundy box's with the rose gold writing the design is simple but the effect looks sleek and expensive. The lipstick itself is incased in a stunning rose gold tube applicator, the tip of the lipstick is shaped in a sort of angular square shape that i find makes it quite easy and precise to apply, especially good for a dark shade like Glastonberry. Although a matte lipstick they are designed to still be nourishing on the lips and are infused with Papaya and Orchid to hydrate this gives it the most amazing scent that reminds me of cocoa butter its seriously yummy. I really love the formula i don't find it at all drying for a matte lipstick and it lasts seriously well, very impressed. On to the colour, i picked Glastonberry as my first to try as i love my dark vampy colours so much right now, its the most gorgeous rich berry shade and has quickly become my new favorite.
The Vintage Vamp Luxury Palette is well, exactly that it really is beautiful in fact it looks to pretty to touch. It took a a fair bit of deciding between which palette i wanted to try but i thought The Vintage vamp was just a bit different and would go well with the Glastonberry lipstick. The four shades are colour coded and designed to compliment each other, with a colour to prime, enhance, pop and smoke.
The prime shade (top left) is my favorite in the whole palette a soft pinky nude highlight with an amazing sheen to it really does make a great base shade. The enhance shade is a warm red toned brown that gives great definition to the crease, and the smoke shade a burgundy/plum that goes really well with the other colours both are matte with very slight shimmers to them. The pop colour is a vibrant gold its not as pigmented as the others its a light shimmer which does exactly what its says and gives a nice pop to the eye. I think all the eyeshadow shades work really well together and look amazing. They also last really well on the eye, again i was really impressed.

The Charlotte Tilbury makeup is pricey, but i feel you are paying for a genuinely quality product and i love treating myself to a little bit of luxury.
