Charlotte Tilbury ‘Luxury Palette’ Color-Coded Eyeshadow Palette in Dolce Vita
My second and latest Charlotte Tilbury addition to my makeup collection. Believe it or not, I actually don’t own a super high end eyeshadow quad so I was excited to know that Charlotte Tilbury would be my first. People rave about her makeup line and I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed if I chose an eyeshadow quad. I had a difficult time choosing which quad I wanted, but in the end, because the quad is super expensive and I wanted to get the most out of it, I chose “me” colors: warm browns.
Just as you’d expect, the packaging is luxurious and I love that she labeled each eyeshadow for its purpose. Not that I would follow it, but it’s nice to have for those who aren’t exactly comfortable with makeup. For me, I’d use shade #1 only as a highlighter on my brow bone and tear duct and #2 & #3, I’d use interchangeably on the lid/crease/lower lash line. Shade #4 is perfect for a pop, since it’s more of a pressed pigment. It’s not exactly super pigmented, but it’s a good eyeshadow to layer on top of warm browns for a bit of sparkle.
Wear time is pretty average, but what I find really beautiful about these shades is the texture. They’re not crumbly like cheap eyeshadows, but are firm and buttery all at the same time. I feel secure bringing these eyeshadows with me on trips since I know they won’t crumble. The blend-ability makes smokey eyes a breeze and the shades are easy to pull off day or night.
Since Charlotte Tilbury‘s products are more on the pricier side, this quad costs about $52. Do I think this is essential for your collection? Not really. It’s not exactly the cheapest either, but if you’re looking to treat yourself, I think it’s something nice to have.

If you do, tell me how you like it! xx
It’s definitely ok to treat yourself with expensive products because after all it’s all about passion for makeup, that’s what I think. I can’t wait for a visit to the US to get at least the Filmstar Bronze And Glow, CT went straight to perfection with her products! X

That would be awesome. Someday, someday!
Lovely eyeshadow quad. CT just makes me inhale sharply with the packaging. It’s so dang beautiful & the products don’t disappoint either so it’s a complete win-win.
