Are you on a never-ending hunt for the perfect everyday pink lipstick? Look no further because Charlotte Tilbury has just released a range of lipsticks that are not only celeb-approved but also bound to become your new go-to. In this article, we’ll dive into the world of Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Icons collection and discover the top-secret award season lipstick that has everyone buzzing.
The Power of a Perfect Pink Lipstick
As a beauty enthusiast, I’m always on the lookout for a pink lipstick that effortlessly enhances my everyday look. Charlotte Tilbury’s latest collection immediately caught my attention, especially when I learned that renowned makeup artists had used these lipsticks on their celebrity clients during award season. One such example is Jessica Chastain, whose makeup artist Kristofer Buckle created a dreamy makeup look for her at the Emmy Awards.
When I reached out to Charlotte Tilbury’s UK PR team to uncover the exact shade Jessica Chastain wore, I discovered that it was Icon Baby, a warm nude-rose lipstick. This shade perfectly complements Jessica’s fiery red hair, proving that the right pink can work wonders for anyone.
Embracing the Pink Lip Trend
Kristofer Buckle, the makeup artist behind Jessica Chastain’s stunning Emmy Awards look, believes that pink lips are currently having a moment in the beauty world. From the Golden Globes to the Emmys, pink lips have been dominating the red carpets. The new lipsticks from Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Icons collection are designed to embrace this trend and provide a versatile range of shades for every occasion.
“These new lipsticks are fabulous! I’ve had so much fun playing with these and can’t wait for everyone to try them,” says Kristofer Buckle. He explains that the Charlotte Tilbury K.I.S.S.I.N.G formula, which these lipsticks feature, adds a subtle shine to the lips without the need for a gloss. This not only gives you an on-trend lip gloss effect but also eliminates any stickiness or risk of transferability. Additionally, these lipsticks provide a contouring effect, making your lips appear more defined, symmetrical, and full.
Introducing the Hollywood Pinks Collection
Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Pinks collection offers a range of shades that are not only wearable but also glide on effortlessly. One shade that caught my eye is Candy Chic, priced at £27. Described as a candy pink that makes everyone wink, this lipstick strikes the perfect balance between pink and nude. If you’ve ever struggled with nude shades overpowering the pink in your lips, Candy Chic is the solution.
The K.I.S.S.I.N.G Formula: Shine and Comfort Combined
Apart from the stunning shades, what sets Charlotte Tilbury’s lipsticks apart is the K.I.S.S.I.N.G formula. It provides a comfortable and shiny finish that lasts throughout the day. While some long-lasting lipsticks require a balm or gloss on top for added shine, these lipsticks deliver a beautiful shine without any extra steps. As expected, you may need to reapply throughout the day, but the compromise is worth it for the radiant shine you get.
The Perfect Pair: Lipstick and Lip Liner
To complete your pink lip look, Charlotte Tilbury offers a new addition to the Lip Cheat family – 90s Pink. This lip liner, priced at £21, features a dreamy 90s-inspired warm rose pink shade that perfectly complements the Hollywood Pinks collection. The liner not only enhances the longevity of your lipstick but also adds definition and precision to your application.
If you’re considering purchasing both the lipstick and the liner, the Lip Kit is an excellent option. Priced at £45, this kit offers a 5% saving, allowing you to enjoy the perfect pink lip combo at a more affordable price.
Wearability and Longevity
Looking at the Hollywood Pinks collection as a whole, you may notice a lack of zingier shades. However, this is intentional. The beauty of these lipsticks lies in their wearability and ease of application. They are designed to be effortlessly glided on without the need for a mirror. While reapplication may be necessary throughout the day, the lipsticks do offer some staying power. However, keep in mind that the shine may fade slightly after eating and drinking.
A New Favorite: The Everyday Pink Lipstick
Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk is undoubtedly an iconic lip color, often found in the handbags of beauty enthusiasts. However, after trying the Hollywood Icons collection, I believe I’ve found a new favorite. Candy Chic, with its perfect balance of pink and nude, has quickly become my go-to everyday pink lipstick. Its shine, comfort, and long-lasting formula make it a winner in my book.
