Dupes for Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder

Everybody loves Charolette Tilbury makeup: her powder, blush, lipstick, lip pencils. Everything ... the whole luxury line is fabulous! 

Charlotte Tibury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder is a compressed powder that applies like super fine loose powder to achieve a look of perfection.

But some of us won't buy it. Mauh, for one, because we don't want to go broke. At $45 the face powder is not cheap. 

Never fear, dupes are here! If you desire to save your moola for big-ticket items that last longer, here are two winning dupes for Charlotte Tilbury's luxe finishing powder:
No7 Lift & Luminate Triple Action Translucent Finishing Powder - A lot less expensive, plus you get more power for the money. You are guaranteed to love it as much as the CT powder. If you're not rich and won't compromise, this powder is made for you!

Flower Light Illusion Perfecting Power - Drew Berrymore has an excellent line of makeup - Everything: foundation, powder, blush, lipstick, pencils, highlighters. Luxe formulas for less.

There's nothing wrong with a splurge once in a while. Yet, finding top-notch budget-friendly dupes lets you keep some of your money in your wallet to splurge when the time and merchandise is right!

When temptation calls your name, Savvy Shoppers, what hot button item/Catagory makes you open your wallet to splurge?

Charlotte Tilbury Limited Edition Bridal Lipstick Collection

The proper name of the limited edition collection is a mouthful: Matte Revolution Love Filter Lipsticks.
"Angie Smith," said I, "what's exciting and new in the beauty world? What should I write about next?" Turns out, Angie has already ordered it! Charlotte Tilbury who has a whole line of beautiful, natural lipsticks recently launched a limited edition of 3 Bridal Matte Colors that universally flatter every skin tone. Creating shades that look fabulous on all complexions -- light, medium, or dark -- has become a trademark of the Charlotte Tilbury brand. The limited edition bridal collection is no exception.

Lined up in order of the top image, the new shades are:

1) Wedding Bells - It is a nude pink with a matte finish.

2) Ms. Kisses - A lipstick shade in golden peachy pink with a matte finish. (The iconic NARS Orgasm hue is also a golden peachy pink.)

3) First Dance - A blushed berry rose leaving you with a pretty rose petal pout.

The texture of Charlotte Tilbury's matte lipsticks never dry out your lips ... but is creamy and moisturizing which adds to their popularity.

Wow, all 3 of the bridal matte colors are gorgeous! You did great, Ang!
See a YouTuber swatch the colors. Cute bracelet, no?

Dupes For Charlotte Tilbury In Pillow Talk

Unlike reds or bight pinks, nude lipstick is so wearable for daytime because it's also low maintenance. I can't bring myself to spend $34 for one designer lipstick, the price of one of my favorite brands, Charlotte Tilbury. Pillow Talk, a brownish (hint of peach, hint of pink) nude is a huge seller as you can wear it every day. A matte formula, it feels creamy on your lips and has staying power.

'Tis time to find its dupes. Costing $5.82 - $9 depending on the retailer, the following have a matt finish, the creaminess and staying power of Charlotte Tilbury in Pillow Talk the original:

1) Flower Beauty Pouty Lipstick: Spiced Petal - the #1 doppelgänger

2) Flower Beauty Pouty Lipstick: Naked Blush

3) L'Orèal Color Riche Matte: #633 Moka Chic

Even the 3rd choice, L'Orèal's Moka Chic, if not an exact match, is a near-perfect match and beautiful shade for less! So alike on your lips, you won't notice the difference.

Perhaps 6 times more for the luxe brand is never worth the price. Think of all the money saved in a year's time by buying a dupe.

You're welcome!

Charlotte Tilbury Makeup: One Woman, Ten Looks

1) The Ingenue

Charlotte Tilbury is a makeup brand on the same level as Chanel. The colors and textures are beautiful. Since the retailer is English in origin (not French), it's a few bucks cheaper then Chanel, but still a luxury brand and a splurge for the shopper on a budget. The Limited Edition Face Palettes are a smart entry into the Charlotte Tilbury line. Although not cheap at $75, the palettes are ample-sized, the hues are ultra flattering, and it contains a variety of face products to create a complete look.

The company website is a wealth of helpful information and great fun to explore. In addition to discovering and shopping for new looks and listening to catchy music, you can watch how-to videos featuring professional makeup artists who show you the steps in creating the different looks. Click each image below to enlarge:
2) The Golden Goddess                                       3) The Uptown Girl

4) The Sophisticate                                            5) The Dulce Vita
6) The Bombshell                                                     7) The Vintage Vamp
 
8) Glamour Muse                                                 9) The Rebel
10) The Rock Chick

Which looks are you willing to try? And which ones do you think you could pull off? 

Perhaps because of my pale complexion and fondness for light lip colors, I really like the Rock Chick, the Uptown Girl and the Sophisticate. If stepping out of my comfort zone, I could try the Vintage Vamp look -- love the sultry eyes and red burgundy lips of that one! Now you ...
