A Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat

Despite wearing lipstick on almost a daily basis, there are some days when I just don’t feel like wearing anything on my lips – mostly when I’m having a lazy, no-makeup kind of day or if I know I’m about to delve into a hefty burger for lunch and don’t want to have to worry about my lipstick smearing.

Unfortunately, I’ve not been blessed with perfectly even or shaped lips and so this often leaves me feeling rather bare-faced (or lipped!). I have however found a way to cheat your way to fuller, even looking lips and it's through the combination of a lip balm and liner. Specifically, the NUXE Reve de Miel and Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk or Pink Venus – depending on your lips shade. This pairing is perfect for a simple touch of colour for everyday wear and almost creates that ever sought after ‘my lips but better’ look – plus both products are matte so it follows the natural lip texture perfectly - and I personally prefer a matte lip so much more! 

I've found this combination great for creating perfect lips but it also looks near identical to the much sought after Kylie Jenner lips. I believe she uses the MAC lip liner in 'Soar' but I've found Pillow Talk to be just as similar and with a touch of the CT 'Nude Kate' lipstick over the top, it's become my everyday go-to shade.
