Hi folks! Hope you've been keeping well and having a great start to the year so far. :)
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen some pics of some very beautiful things from Charlotte Tilbury's new makeup line that I received as an ah-mazing gift from le hubby just prior to Christmas! Thanks so much le hubster!!! *sigh* #luckywife
// Briefly, Charlotte Tilbury is a world-renowned British makeup artist who has worked with the likes of Kate Moss, Jennifer Lopez, Tom Ford, Vogue and just about any of the big names in the industry. (You can see some of her work featured here). //
Here are some sneak peek photographs...oh, be still my beating heart...
It's Charlotte Tilbury's Future Vintage: The Collector's Edition Gift Set! ^_^
The prettiest, luxurious packaging!
Below, inside the box is a personally numbered and signed card by Charlotte herself. :D
There are only 300 of these limited-edition gifts released for Christmas. As you can see in the bottom right-hand corner of the card, I am the lucky owner of number 197 of 300!
Charlotte Tilbury describes the set as the -
"ultimate in gifting for the beauty connoisseur and a great investment in future vintage beauty pieces."
It's really amazing! (Did I say "amazing" already?!)
There are two compartments in the gift box. The top layer consists of:
- Lip Cheat lip liner in 'Pillowtalk',
- K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipstick in 'Penelope Pink',
- Luxury Eye Shadow Palette – 'Vintage Vamp', and
- Lip Lustre in 'Bardot Beige' (exclusive shade).
The second layer contains more gorgeous vintage-inspired goodies:
- Mini Charlotte’s Magic Cream,
- Bar of Gold, and
- Filmstar Bronze & Glow.
Here they all are again together in their packaging...
Unpacked... ;) As you can see, the packaging is art-deco inspired - so gorgeous and rich in deep vintage crimson and stunning rose gold!
Sneak peak of what's inside each product...
To add to the set, I also got a couple of other beauties to complete Charlotte's 'Vintage Vamp' look (check out her tutorial on how to create the look in YouTube here).
This includes Charlotte's Cheek to Chic Swish and Pop Blusher in the shade 'Love is the Drug' (below).
And, the other is the K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipstick in 'Night Crimson' for a much more dramatic look.
Last, but not least, I got her makeup bag, which have the fabulous lipstick kiss prints on one side and on the other side - a very positive and inspiring quote about the power of makeup.
If you're interested, I will be posting some more photos, swatches and my thoughts on each of the products here in the coming weeks. So stay tuned!
Thanks for stopping by! ^_^ xo
