Hey ladies! I know we talk alot about the brand on other threads; I thought it would be best to centralize it to it's own category. It looks like it's close to being offered here; I just checked Nordie's and it appears available for order today. I'm contimplating an item; What have you heard of, or tried that's good? hackneyfl, you talk about the eye cheat; what do you use it for? The color looks nude.

Eye cheat is supposed to be for the bottom waterline mostly (not sure how hackneyfl uses it). It is supposed to "cheat" and make the eyes look bigger Look up British beauty blogger. She has a few swatches and brief reviews on her products. I had to Google for eye shadow and blush swatches. I ordered eye cheat and the lip gloss in ibiza nights (actually haven't heard much about the glosses) I love the sculpting duo (I got the gift set with the brush from the anniversary sale). I would pass on the brush. It sheds and for the price seems to expensive. Overall what I saw is people love her line and are so glad she came out with her own. I read good things about the foundation and people love her magic cream. Like I posted elsewhere you can sign up for her newsletter and first 100 purchases get a free magic cream sample. I hope her matte revolution lipsticks launch here. They look nice. Ahhh so excited!

I love everything I got from her; the lipstick is very creamy and doesn't dry my lips, love the eye cheat as we all know, the eyeliner is great too.

mrsbaine I just got an e-mail that my Nordy's order with the lip gloss and eye cheat shipped. I only do the free standard shipping but that pre-order that wasn't supposed to happen did ship!

LOL mrsbaine I feel like I have everything and it sounds like you have a lot of everything in general too. It's hard to recommend something (or even to pick something for myself cause I literally do not need anything). The Eye Cheat would be my pick if it sounds like something you would try. Or, her lipsticks are supposed to be really nice. I have my eyes on the Bitch Perfect shade. Her line just seems very well curated and high quality. Not that you (or I for that matter) need any more eye shadow but her quads look really pigmented and gorgeous.

Another lipstick would get bo love. I can't think of a color i don't have. And quads? I bought Cocoa Mirage last week. (Yup- just told on myself). I just got a new eyeliner from marc Jacobs. I really don't need anything so maybe i'll save a little money amd pass on something.

So my lip gloss and eye cheat will be here this Friday at the latest (so nice there was that accidental preorder haha).
I used my discount+ remaining Nordstrom note to get bitch perfect lipstick for $20. Also ebates jumped to 10% (so pissed I ordered a new face cream for my bf and ebates was only 3% yesterday grrrr).
Not gonna lie I love the color of bitch perfect but also the name. I just want someone to ask me what I am wearing haha.
The eye quads and blushes look pretty but I want to wait to see if we get some of the holiday stuff I saw on my UK beauty blogs. Also I have too much stuff.
Anyone else buy anything?

odd, on Nordie's, you have to search her name to get the collection up. It doesn't load based on brand yet. I wanted a matte lipstick, but they don't appear to be available. I really don't need anything else, so for right now, I think I'll wait.

I was not even familiar with Charlotte Tilbury until I started to read about her here and at BT. The excitement was contagious I can tell you! I ended up ordering a pencil and blush. I gave ordering a palette a lot of thought but used a tiny bit of self control and didn't order one.

I really want to wait for it to come to stores to test out. I need a new blush. But seriously for shadows- if I can get 4 from Mac or from MUFE that's a dupe for CT, I will get it from them.

IF that's true, it'll feel alot different than Mac. I looked at the blushes when they came out, and nothing really moved me. I still haven't bought any even though they are my one cheat item on this No Buy...

mrsbaine tehprincessjennCharlotte Tilbury has her Fallen Angel quad coming out for holiday (hopefully for the U.S. too-I don't see why not). I have seen a few reviews on it and the shadow payoff and intensity looks amazing dry (and 10x more so wet) and it seems texture wise they are really great. It looks like a pretty quad too. I think wayne goss posted something on his Instagram (which Charlotte Tilbury reposted) and British Beauty Blogger also did swatches awhile back. That's the quad I am waiting for!
