Lately, you might have seen featured in a lot of my Instagram posts these perfect Charlotte Tilbury MATTE Revolution lipsticks and today I’m back with another Charlotte Tilbury sweet treat – a full review! I hope you don’t mind it! Haha!…

That is simply because I love them so much. The formula on these is well… just different than anything I have tried before, different than any matte lipstick in my collection.

First of all they’re matte and long lasting on the lips but not at all drying. Even if they are matte they still manage somehow to look luminous and feel lightweight on the lips.

All the colours are incredibly pigmented and they literally glide on the lips thanks to the amazing blend of hydrating and nourishing oils in the formula ( orchid and lipstick tree extract, that is! ). One swipe will actually be enough to pack on the right amount colour to make for a right application.

Today I have for you three new shades: Lost Cherry, Amazing Grace and Walk of Shame. But before I start reviewing these gorgeous colours I have to let you know that these are not my first Charlotte Tilbury MATTE Revolution lipsticks. Everything started with the shade Sexy Sienna, previously reviewed here, and I knew I had to go back and get these other shades too… That much I love the formula, the application and the lasting power of these gorgeous lipsticks.

Lost Cherry ( swatched in the picture above ) is a bright and happy, fresh cherry pink red. This pastel fuchsia is the “happiest” colour of the entire range, and with the upcoming Spring I thought it will make a great option for a simple, girly look!

Amazing Grace is a vintage tea rose, which I imagined to be a bit more pale from the swatches I saw online, and a bit more on the nude side than rosy. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a beautiful everyday shade that I’m sure it will look flattering on ladies of any age and so many different skin types! And I equally love it!

In the picture above you can see Amazing Grace which I used to create a look with the Charlotte Tilbury The Uptown Girl Eyeshadow Palette a while ago! See post here!

Walk of Shame is a berry tinted rose which I mainly got because it’s complimentary to my beloved The Dolce Vita Eyeshadow Palette, also from Charlotte Tilbury. But I’m so happy I did because the colour is gorgeous on my lips and it’s like nothing else in my collection!

One more thing that I really like is the square shape of the actual lipstick which makes defining your lips so accessible, makes drawing the cupid bow on your upper lash with high accuracy and also fits perfectly into the corners of the lips which we all know how difficult is to do without messing up! That’s why using a lip liner with these lipsticks is absolutely optional!

I absolutely love the retro, beautiful and feminine, rose gold packaging with the Charlotte Tilbury logo embossed on the lid. The closure is “étanche” which will definitely prevent the lipstick from going bad before time.

Here you have my MATTE Revolution picks! Which one are you lusting after?

See you soon beautiful!
