Charlotte Tilbury: Magic Skincare

It looks amazing under makeup
I think this moisturizer is the kind that looks amazing under makeup. I think that is where this brand shines. It's the type of skincare that works good for people who wear makeup. Now if you are a person who does not wear makeup and it's all about the actual skincare itself, you may not like this one. For one thing this moisturizer kind of smells like perfume. This is the kind of product that makes you feel luxurious. But if you have sensitive skin that is very reactive, I am not sure this is going to work for you. I feel like fragrance in skin care has been villainized and it's actually not that bad if it's a small amount and you do not have sensitive skin. Most of us know our skin especially if you try different things. My opinion on this particular moisturizer is that it feels very hydrating and it works really well under makeup. If you do not have reactive skin you are going to be able to enjoy this one. With that being said I would not recommend this to someone with sensitive skin because it is very fragrant which means it could cause irritation for some people. I personally enjoy the texture because it feels like a cloud but I noticed I only wear it under makeup. I don't turn to this moisturizer on a daily basis, personally. I think the reason is when you use this it's like an experience and it's very sensorial and that can be too much for me on a regular basis. So this is the kind of moisturizer where personal preference is going to really matter. Overall it is worth the cost because it literally looks absolutely stunning under my makeup and that is great.
Blown away
Received the Magic Cream for Christmas. Never ever has this happened, but after just 3 days of using this lovely cream I walked into work yesterday and a coworker who formerly worked for a plastic surgeon asked what I was doing differently for my skin, that my skin looked soft and glowing. Just blew me away! Can’t wait to see what happens with continued use, and I’m no spring chicken!
Moisturising
It’s definitely a big investment, but I love using it to prep my skin for makeup and it always turns out pretty!
