Charlotte Tilbury - Matte Revolution Lipstick - Lost Cherry


 Charlotte Tilbury is a lady I have long been interested in. I have loved her and her make up looks for years, so when I heard she was bring out her own make up line, I was very excited to say the least.

I had heard a lot about the matte revolution lipsticks on various beauty blogs and YouTube videos over the past few weeks and I just knew I had to try them.

I suffer from quite dry lips so I had always assumed that 'matte' lipsticks weren't for me...I have difficulty wearing the likes of MAC Ruby Woo, but after reading the reviews on these lipsticks they seemed to be the perfect mix of matte and long-lasting yet moisturising.

I settled on the colour 'Lost Cherry' after seeing it on the gorgeous 'Vivianna Does Makeup'.
I had been on the look out for a perfect orangey/red/pink lip colour for quite a while and this looked like the perfect mix of both.

The reviews I had read online were right, this lipstick is not drying in the slightest and slides on to the lips with ease. Non of the dragging and pulling you get with some really matte lip colours.

I would say this lipstick provides a slightly more velvet finish than chalky matte, but that is definitely a pro and not a con in my book...and boy does it have lasting power as well. I would say this lipstick lasts around 5 - 6 hours on the lips - could you really expect any more from a lipstick?

What appeals to me the most is the colour, it just completely wows me, it is so unique and like nothing I have seen before, the absolute perfect mix of orange, pink and red....is this even possible?!

The packaging of this lipstick is just beautiful, I absolutely love the gold casing...I always feel extremely glamourous pulling it out of my handbag!

The only draw back I have with this lipstick is the shape of the bullet, I actually find it quite difficult to apply the product straight to the lips using the actual bullet....I guess this is just something I will get the hang of in time!

Now the only thing I'm left thinking is which colour shall I get my hands on next?!
