‘Glass-like skin’ is something we’re all looking to achieve – and I think Charlotte Tilbury’s latest highlighter is the tool we all need in our makeup bags
It’s quite rare I find a product that literally makes me gasp out loud, but as soon as I swiped Charlotte Tilbury’s brand-new Pillow Talk Multi-Glow Highlighter onto my cheeks, I did just that…and then proceeded to take hundreds of pictures and videos to show off my glowy skin.
Available exclusively on Charlotte Tilbury, the limited-edition £35 highlighter is back and better than ever, boasting four stunning shades in one compact case inspired by the iconic Pillow Talk.
Despite switching most of my powder makeup formulas for liquid alternatives over the years, including my highlighters, I’m happy to make one exception for this silky-smooth, glowy product.
The glow-enhancing beauty must-have comes in two shades; ‘Dream Light’ which is a pink warm-toned highlighter, and ‘Romance Light’ which a nude-pink cool-toned highlighter.
As I like a more natural finish, I tend to stick with warmer-toned products, so opted for the ‘Dream Light’ shade which gave me the perfect sun-kissed glow. What I love most about this product is that it’s multi-tasking and works as a blusher too thanks to the combination of pink shades – so it’s basically a two-in-one!
Seeing as I have quite dry skin, I tend to stay away from powder products to avoid my makeup going patchy – so when I saw this highlighter was a powder formula, I was a little nervous to try it.
Despite my whole makeup routine being liquid based, the Multi-Glow highlighter gilded onto my skin effortlessly with no patchiness in sight – and to be honest, I was a little taken aback, hence my gasp.
According to the product description, the formula features silky Mica for a soft gliding effect, allowing easy application for a silky-smooth finish which explains the seamless application, and the Finely Milled Pearls are the secret to the long-lasting glow without the need to include glitter.
While the actual highlighter has no glitter in sight, the packaging certainly does – and I’m fully obsessed! Housed in a stunning luxury gold compact case, complete with a mirror, the real magic happens when you close the case. Behind the casing, pink glitter proceeds to drip down, creating the most stunning effect that looks amazing in the sunlight.
As someone who’s usually put off by powder products, I’m more than happy to make an exception for this highlighter and it’s definitely my new go-to for glowy, healthy-looking skin.
It seems Charlotte’s been busy creating multiple new products, as the queen of glow has also launched £38 Glow Easy Tanning Drops and Pillow Talk Plumpgasm Lip Glosses in two dreamy shades, priced at £27 each. The Mirror’s Reviews Editor Stacey Dutton tested the lip-plumping glosses for herself – check out her thoughts and amazing results here.
If you’re after a super affordable highlighter alternative, we’ve spotted this intensely pigmented powder by Revolution that’ll ‘instantly brighten your complexion,’ according to the brand – and it’s on sale for just £3.20 at Boots.
