CT Airbrush Bronzer in TAN & other goodies

The pan size on this Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush face & body bronzer is Huge! It has a similar formula to her compact powder formula...soft blurring coverage..🖌 I watched a YouTube video on this product and seen how the tan applies "Gradually" with a natural very subtle shimmer glow. I was hooked and when I received it yesterday I was right about the color TAN. It is absolutely gorgeous. Don't let the deep chocolate fool you. I am of medium skin color (summer complexion) & this is a very buildable color. I stamped it on with my WGoss brush to my lower checks & then blended up, lightly blending up the color. It works better if your foundation is fully dry before applying. You can sheer out with CT powder if you need to lighten. I used the same technique with my forehead. The formula isn't powdery & doesn't have gray or ashy undertones...it just gives a allover warm buildable GLOW🌟. I did a mini haul of items from Beautylish & included my Terry concealer (Bombtastic) my Jeffree Star C-18 concealer (a must buy) & Kevyn Aucoins pot of Super coverage concealer for those "On the Quick" makeup days. Also the new Kevyn Aucoin face balm makeup is incredible. Happy Bronzing.

Wonderfully Basic Eye Contour/Contour/Smoky Eye Palette

I love the fact that this palette is a great departure from all the other palettes out there that have far too many glittery, sparkly colors mixed in with just a few mattes. This palette is 100 percent matte. I highly recommend this palette if you're looking to create a nude, natural eye look. You can blow out the colors with the deeper browns & black eye color. I contoured my eyes, then experimented with the colors on my brows. Wonderful. It even worked as a nose contour...I do recommend this palette.

Sleek Tapered down Brushes for Small Eyes

Sonia G. (Thank Goodness) updated her past line of makeup brushes. I'm glad someone wrote a review that said they were for smaller shaped eyes, because my eyes are small & almond shaped. I love my Wayne Goss brush that covers that base, but this 5 piece S.G. set is perfect for smaller shaped eyes with less "Real Estate." They've been updated to a Cobalt blue color featuring a Sleeker, Slimmer, Tapered body that has a notably higher amount of brush material. Compared to the previous Red brushes that were audibly hollow & wooden, clunky & chunky, with the next to no brush material- makes these blue brushes a refreshingly welcome makeup set. You'll have a much easier time placing, transitioning, blending & defining your product on either your eyes or face. Highly recommend purchasing when they are restocked...🖌❤️

Too many Bronzy shimmers that look the same

This palette is a de ja vu repeat of shimmery, glittery colors overdone again. This bronze palette has a couple of beautiful shades, which are the two darkest, brown violet colors. the rest are orange based & are more of transition shades that all look alike. The glitters are very similar. There are 4 mattes & 11 similar gold bronzes. I'm not so much into the orange golds. Let's retire the 70's because it's been reproduced & rehashed too many times. Time to move on, as I may have to return this palette. Thanks again ND.

Magic Cream/Lotion in a pump bottle w/SPF 20

I purchased this new product "Charlottes Magic Cream Light". Thanks to the Quarantine Blues, I wasn't even aware this was available. -I feel like the Bubble Girl! So Out of Touch...but thankfully we still have online access to Beautylish.

The original MAGIC cream is wonderfully hydrating for skin that needs an intensive dose of hydration. As much as I love it, it can be heavy. Her Magic night cream goes even further & is super hydrating for super dry skin.

This new Light Version is perfect for daytime & summer days that run hot! It has a Broad Spectrum SPF of 20 which is nice. The Magic Cream light comes in a pump bottle that is a concentrated iquid. The pump works perfectly by the way. It leaves your skin baby skin soft, plumped, hydrated & soaks right in.

Just a side note: When my skin needs a double dose of hydration I will use the magic cream on top of my Tatcha mask or even under CT's dry mask massaging the product into my facial skin. Leaves your skin velvety soft.

If you have oily skin you can always apply with damp fingers patting on. I highly recommend this product.

King Me

I absolutely love this color because its out of the ordinary and perks me up. Despite the price it’s chock less of unnecessary ingredients .

Inglot’s liquid works with any Pigment Eye Shadow Color

Inglot's Duraline mixed with the pigment color can customize your colors depending on how much liquid you mix on a paw palette.

Or Use pads under eye to catch fallout before applying your foundation. Powder under your eyes before applying foundation too. Think outside the box to look foxy beauties!

Queen of Queens Surratt Brushes

This amazing line of brushes uses grey/blue Squirrel hairs & Canadian squirrel hairs that are incredibly soft. Hand assembled in Japan this face brush is densely assembled at the base/ferrule and slowly blooms out into a soft dome of hairs designed to pick up just the right amount of delicate face powder, blush & bronzer with zero streaking. The handle is lightweight and comes in a beautiful collectible box that slides open with a soft velvet flocked like material that protects the brush. Yes, the cost of this brush is pricey but if you bought the perfect little black dress, you wouldn’t wear it every day. I can almost guarantee this Surratt Face brush is most likely one you will reach for often and yes they are velvety soft. I am so intrigued with these brushes that I purchased the whole collection from various vendors, including Beautylish, because some were sold out.

If you were to purchase 4 brushes, I would recommend the face brush (multi-use), the large smoky brush for highlighting cheekbones, the complexion brush & the flat shader brush for eyes. Enjoy!

All Around Multi-Use Face Brush

Sonia G.’s face brush is my favorite brush out of her entire Sonia G line. I have a weakness for natural hair-cashmere soft brushes. This brush has the perfect handle & brush length (For my hands) that allow me to access my skin for better control. It’s great for blending Blush, Powder, Contour, Bronzer, etc. I love to watch editorial makeup artist for tips and one of the best was, Makeup Brushes truly have no restrictions on how you can use them. So I try to not limit yourself. Sometimes I apply moisturizer to my face, let it soak in & then use this brush to massage my skin...Sheer heaven! Although I have twoTop brands that are closer to my heart, my Sonia G. collection still has her own storage niche. This brush is definitely worth the purchase.

Wayne Goss’ #12 Paddle shaped cashmere soft but dense base

This large, cashmere soft, paddle shaped brush is the perfect companion to use with my Natasha Denona Sculpting palette. I hadn’t found a palette to match my skin undertones until ND’s. (Just A quick plug on ND’s palette) !

I received my WG’s #12 sculpting brush in my Beautylish Chinese New Year pkg. I had never noticed this brush before. It’s now one of my most used brushes.

It's my Home-Run Trifecta/Quinfecta brush. I use a microfiber towel to wipe clean in between colors/textures. I can sculpt (Cream) my face, contour nose & under my chin, blend, apply shimmer(powder) to my décolletage & shoulders & bronze & set with powder. I genuinely love this multi-use brush. Thanks to Wayne Goss once again & Beautylish.
