Hello darlings (sorry could ‘t resist) just adore how Charlotte Tilbury addresses everyone as ‘Darlings’. It’s so endearing and makes you feel so inclusive! So I was gifted this cute little travel gift set by my gorgeous sister, she knows how much I adore Charlotte Tilbury products and have yet to purchase these skincare delights.
A great way to test them out before committing to the full sizes and ideal for those who are trying these skincare wonders for the first time. The packaging is just beautiful and comes in this mini travel suitcase. So after using the products for a few weeks I thought I would do a review of them. The products in this gift set are rather small but for a travel sized gift set you can’t go wrong.
GODDESS SKIN CLAY MASK: I am not a regular mask person, however I like to try them out now and again so can be picky when it comes to choosing a mask. I was a little sceptical to begin with about how good this mask was going to be. After trying out the Goddess Skin Clay I was pleasantly surprised. This clay mask is just amazing, it has a great smell, I would say it smells like roses and it feels wonderful when applying it. After leaving it on my face for about 30 minutes I then gently wash it off with lukewarm water. It leaves my skin feeling so much healthier, smoother and very soft to touch.
MAGIC CREAM: Now this is one product I have been wanting to get my hands on. I have heard so much wonderful things about it and could not wait to try it out. I was so excited that the Magic cream is what I used straight away once I had opened the package. It has quite a thick consistency so you really don’t need that much to apply all over your face. It feels great on my face and just feels fabulous applying make-up on top! Although the cream is rich, it absorbs quickly into my skin leaving it feeling hydrated in a matter of seconds. The actual size (50ml) of the cream is rather pricey, but I do think its worth it as you don’t need a lot of the product and it should last you a long time. This small (15ml) gift size one I have been using for the past three weeks will last me for about three to four months. I use a pea sized amount morning and night. I will for sure be purchasing the larger size once this is finished.
WONDER GLOW: After applying the magic cream I apply the Wonder Glow and then my make-up on top. I also just wear it on its own on top of the Magic Cream and it leaves my skin looking dewy. I tend to do this on my morning school run. Not having to apply my foundation saves me some time! Always a bonus when your trying to get the boys ready and out the door. This is what Charlotte Tilbury has to say about the product. ‘State of the art fluorescent core light diffuser absorbs UV particles from the sun and reemits their energy as visible light, illuminating your skin. Soft focus ceramic microspheres smooth over wrinkles and imperfect skin tone, creating an anti-ageing optical illusion for a flawless, poreless complexion.’ I don’t have noticeable pores so can’t really comment on whether it gives you a poreless complexion or not, however it does leave my skin glowing! I am certain I shall be purchasing this product too.
