Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Matte Revolution Lipstick & Lip Cheat

Pillow Talk

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Matte Revolution Lipstick ($34.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a muted, medium pink with warmer undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had medium, buildable color coverage–up to mostly opaque–with a velvety, smooth, and thin consistency that clung a bit to lips, though not in an uncomfortable, drying kind of way. I just felt like it had a tendency to emphasize my lip lines a bit as some color pulled into them.

The Matte Revolution formula is supposed to be “long-lasting, buildable [and] hydrating.” When I tested the lipstick, it stayed on well for four and a half hours and was non-drying. It was easy to apply, reapply, and to wear, but I wish it was kinder to my lip lines and was hydrating as described!

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lip Cheat Lip Liner ($22.00 for 0.04 oz.) is a dusty, medium-dark pink with a hint of mauve paired with a flat, matte finish. It had good color coverage in a single stroke, and it was nearly opaque when I used it to fill-in my lips.

The Lip Cheat formula is described as a “rich, velvety liner” that can be used all over the lips or for defining the edges of the lips that is supposed to have six-hour wear. The texture was smooth, slightly velvety, and didn’t tug too much on the lips; it was easiest and most comfortable to use as a defining pencil (used along the edges) than to color all over. When I used it all over, it had good, even coverage and while very matte, it actually made my lips appear smoother. As a standalone lip color, it wore well for six hours on me and was non-drying.
