Hi Darlings, today’s post is going to be the review and swatch of the Charlotte Tilbury Cheek To Chic Blusher in the shade Pillow Talk.
Another CT product and this time we are talking about the blush. I definitely have mixed opinions about it.
It reminds me of the Marc Jacobs Flash & Fantasy Air Blush which was one of my favourite blush but it got discontinued. The shade is quite similar and to be honest this is the shade of blush I usually go for so I was all over this one and I love me a fancy blush.
You can get it from Sephora for 40$.





Colour
On the site, it’s described as a nude pink. It has two shades: a satin dark nude on the outer part (swish) and a shimmery ivory pink on the inner one (glow).
PACKAGING
The packaging is stunning: so sleek and fancy. It comes in a pink box and the blush itself it’s the classic maroon with golden details. I’m obsessed with it.
It has a mirror on the inside.

PIGMENTATION & FORMULA
The formula is quite soft and smooth especially when you swatch it, it has a medium pigmentation. You definitely have to build up the colour which as I said in the past is my personal preference with face products.
It doesn’t have any fallout and it’s not too chalky.
You have to be careful with the glow part though, if you swirl in it too much it tends to make the blush too shiny and enhance pores. I wish it was smaller because it’s not shiny enough to be a full on highlighter, but it’s too shiny to be a blush unless you like very shimmery ones.
APPLICATION
It is not super pigmented but you can layer it. I tend to use mostly the swish part with just a bit of the glow shimmer.
SWATCH




LASTING POWER
On me, it lasts around 8 hours before starting to fade.
RATINGS:
- Colour: 10/10
- Longevity: 9/10
- Application: 7/10
- Formula: 7/10
- Pigmentation: 9/10
- Packaging: 10/10
GRADE: B+
I really like this blush, it looks like you are naturally flushed, I prefer when blushes are less pigmented because it helps to avoid the clown effect. I don’t particularly love how shimmery it is but you can work around it. The lasting power is amazing. The colour is perfect for every day and it will look good with any kind of look. If you don’t mind to splurge for these kinds of products and don’t mind a shimmery blush I recommend it.

This is such a pretty blush! Can’t go wrong with CT!
Agree! My favourite brand
I just love the packaging and the colors. It looks good on you. I wouldn’t pay $40 for it though. Maybe $10.
Yeah, I don’t think it’s worth 40$ but 10$ is too little, maybe 25$!
This blush colour looks great on you. I don’t love shimmery blush either because my skin is too textured but I might pick one of these up eventually, I’m just not in a rush to try it.
Yeah there are products I like better, but it’s nice to have in my collection x
I kind of wonder how this would look on me. I like that you rated it so highly, so I’m going to have to find it.
I bet it will look amazing!
Great review! I love the sleek packaging and the colour is perfect! Looks so good on you!
Thank you 💕
This looks so beautiful, and it looks great on you! What a great colour. Plus Charlotte Tilbury packaging is always so stunning xx

Thank you, I totally agree! I love it 💕
Who doesn’t love a bit of shimmer on the cheeks? I’ve never heard of this brand before but I will keep an eye out.
It’s amazing!
Love this shade! Disappointed to hear about the level of shimmer; I don’t like how some shimmer blushes just sit on top of the skin. That’s why I usually prefer something cream-textured.
I feel like if the shimmery part was smaller it would have been perfect
Beautiful blush! I think it looks best on fair skin. Thanks for the review and the swatches! Charlotte Tilbury is my favorite makeup brand for sure! I love everything she makes. <3
I definitely agree! I love it
