As a super-fan of monochromatic make-up, I’ll never get tired of a single shade franchise. Nars Orgasm? Obsessed. MAC Velvet Teddy? In my basket, every time. Clinique Black Honey? The TikTok hype is real. And while I totally understand the fatigue around well-rinsed make-up hues, I find myself falling back in love with these hero shades every single time. My lifelong go-to shade? The effortlessly romantic rose that is Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk.

It's no secret that Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk has an abundance of adoring devotees, myself included. What started as the perfect wedding lipstick has blossomed into a catalogue of blushes, highlighters, eyeshadows of every formula, and even a mascara. Now, one Pillow Talk product is sold every 10 seconds worldwide.
It also has a star-studded roster of enthusiasts; Sienna Miller sported the deeper Pillow Talk Medium lip liner, and Lizzo wore the eyeshadow palette, both for their Met Gala ensembles last year, while Salma Hayek styled a similar medium hue for the Golden Globes and Camila Morrone, the classic lip shade for the Rome Film Festival. Did we mention it was Amal Clooney's wedding liner? An impressive line-up to say the least.
From timeless lip colours to glitzy party-ready shadows, I've tried every single Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk product; these are the pink products I'll be keeping by my side for years to come.
Whether I'm recommending a bridal beauty buy to a friend or reaching into my own make-up bag mid-commute, I find myself returning to Pillow Talk's oh-so-flattering shade time and time again - but, not every product can make the cut. Personally, I reach for a combination of the new Pillow Talk Multi-Glow and original Cheek-To-Chic blush for my day-to-day look. With a buildable pigment and believable shine, they make for an effortless natural flush that makes me look lively without ever looking too faux.
If I'm channelling old school glamour, which I often do for evenings out, I'll also call in the help of the Luxury Palette, which has a more subtle pinky tone and can be layered in its different finishes. Meanwhile, over on lips, I've been reaching for the glassy glow of the Pillow Talk Plumpgasm ever since it launched. While this high shine lip glaze isn't without a kick, I personally find its spice to be well worth the finish.
