Inside the drum inspired packaging there is a mirror within the lid, but there isn’t an applicator as Benefit recommend applying the blush with your fingertips. The compact closes shut with a magnetic mechanism which is strong enough to not have to worry about it opening accidentally in your makeup bag. The blush itself is domed, with a pretty sunburst pattern embossed into the blush. One of Majorette’s endearing qualities is that it’s Peach and Pomegranate scented which smells amazing.. just like a tropical smoothie. If you have sensitive skin that reacts to scented skin or makeup products.. fear not, as the scent doesn’t transfer to the skin.

The cream to powder finish description is spot on, and you get the best of both worlds – the easy application of a cream blush, but the longevity of a powder blush. In terms of shade, Majorette looks like quite a bold orange in the pan, but on the skin it’s a much softer pinky coral that I imagine will flatter all skin tones. You can choose to wear Majorette as a subtle flush of colour, or you can easily build it up for a bolder effect. Application is so quick and easy, by dabbing my fingertips or my beauty blender into the blush and then onto the apples of my cheeks until I’ve got my chosen colour intensity.

Benefit have marketed Majorette as being a Blush Booster in that it can be used as a base for other blushes to ‘amplify your flush’. At first I did think that it was probably a gimmick but it really does add depth and dimension to other blushes by applying Majorette as a base with your chosen blush layered over the top.  By wearing Majorette layered under a powder blush, it helps to lock the blush in place all day long with absolutely no fading and when worn alone it lasts for around five hours.

The lipsticks are all absolutely beautiful as they’re packaged within stunning rose gold metal casing, which looks so art deco and retro and I love it so much; who wouldn’t want to pull this out of their handbag? Bitch Perfect is a slightly warm toned pink which is my perfect nude. In some lights, I find it can look more browny nude than a pinky nude like in the swatch above, but it’s such a flattering shade that compliments practically any blush shade. Bitch Perfect is incredibly creamy with the formula being similar to that of a MAC Cremesheen or a YSL Rouge Volupte, and it applies smoothly and feels so comfortable on the lips. Due to the creaminess, it lasts for around two hours before touchups are needed and it’s not at all drying on the lips.

What I particularly love about the formula of the lipstick is how shiny the finish is, as it almost looks as if I’m wearing a layer of gloss over the top. I really do think that my lips look a little fuller when I wear Bitch Perfect which I’m guessing is down to the light-reflecting pigments. It’s safe to say I’m head over heels in love with my very first Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick, and I’ll definitely be adding some more shades to my collection very soon.. 

Have you tried any of the Charlotte Tilbury Lipsticks?

This palette even has a little cocoa powder added into the eye shadows to create a chocolaty scent, an amazing little touch. As always, the eye shadows are beyond velvety to touch and blend like an absolute dream. This is such a wearable palette for every skin tone.

The quality is exceptional, the same quality we've come to expect from Makeup Revolution and I Heart Makeup. The shimmery shades are a lot more pigmented then the matte. I found them to be easy to work with and blend well. You can get Naked Chocolate here for £7.99.
