Had anyone used her products?
What is all the hype about with the Magic Cream?

I found Charlotte Tilbury to be style over substance, other than the lipsticks.

Their eye shadows are lovely but expensive for what you get.

LadyOfTheCanyon The ELF dupe is great, as long as you have neutral to warm undertones. I'd rather be a shade or half a shade cooler, but it's light enough that it blends well

@LolaSmiles
Oh that's good to know. I'm straight down the line neutral so will look it up, thanks!

I’m one of the very few who love the magic night cream - it is indeed very sticky but on those evenings when I’m getting ready for bed a few hours before I’m intending to go to sleep and I’m not using dermatica (tend to use it about 4/5 nights a week, I use a thin layer of this and it has a few hours on my face before I’m sleeping. I give it a few massages over the following couple of hours and I wake up with a very hydrated feeling to my face.
I found the makeup stuff I’ve tried to be quite good to be honest, love the new cream bronzer and I have some lipsticks that are good shades for me. Used to love the foundation but I haven’t worn foundation for years now so don’t know if anything has changed with it. The push up mascara was a bit disappointing and I don’t wear eye shadow and never have done so can’t comment on that. Bought a couple of the copper and other coloured eyeliners which were lovely.

I like her eyeshadow sets, the eye creams and some of the lipsticks. Not tried magic cream. Mascara was terrible.

I'm not a fan. When it first came to the U.K. I was blown away by the press coverage and went to Selfridges and bought lots of bits - the eye crayons were great but dried out very quickly and became hard and scratchy. The lipsticks were very drying although Amazing Grace is a lovely colour. Magic cream was so heavy it dragged when I tried to rub it in. Most of it needed up in the bin within a year.

I recently got a miniature of the Push Up mascara in a beauty box. It's better than not wearing mascara but not much.

another brand I think is overrated is Pat McGrath. Lovely colours but no staying power.
