The other day, I wrote a blog post all about some of my favourite face powders. I wanted to like to the review that I wrote on the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Finish Powder. Only to find that I have never actually wrote a review on this item before. I just could not believe it. This is an item that I have used and loved for almost a decade and I have never shared my thoughts here on my blog.
As soon as I realied that I have never reviewed this item, I opened a new document and began compiling my thoughts. Even though I am sure you will already know all about this item, I feel like I need to share. Simply for the reason that I use and love this so much. So, here is my review on the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Finish Powder.
Why I first bought this item.
The main reason why I first wanted this Charlotte Tilbury item all of those years ago is because I adored everything from the brand. I went through a real stage of purchasing everything that she released and that included this powder. I think back in the day when I started blogging, it really was a bit of a rat race trying to be the first one to try the latest item by Charlotte Tilbury. She releases that much these days that I think it would be near on impossible to keep up to date with everything. Not to mention it would be bloody expensive!
Â
The packaging.
As with anything that is Charlotte Tilbury, you already know that the packaging is just phenomenal. Even though this stunning and vintage-style packaging is simply beautiful, it is also incredibly practical. One pan of this can last me for going on two years and in that time, I really do put this through its paces. They get thrown around and manhandled. Never in all of the years that I have had them have I ever had one with defected packaging. They are hardwearing, the mirror is perfect, and are slimline enough to fit in every single handbag!
Â
What this does to my makeup. Â
When I am getting ready to head out to work in the morning, I will set all of my makeup in place using my standard Laura Mercier Translucent Powder. I then go about my day. As I do have quite an oily complexion, usually I do have to go in with a touch of powder throughout the day. That is what this Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Finish Powder is perfect for. I take just a small amount on a very tall powder brush and with a light hand I dust it over the areas that I feel need a little more coverage.
Â
The staying power on the skin.
As I mentioned, the main reason why I need this powder is because I have oily skin. If I go in and apply a light layer around 11am, that will then be me done with powder for the rest of the day. I may get a little glowy through the day, but it certainly isn’t offensive and it is quite nice. Even on them days where my natural glow is more like straight up oil, this powder does a great job at bringing everything back into line and making my skin look good. Exactly what I need for when I am out and about.
Â
Would I repurchase?
The ultimate question in any review is whether I would actually repurchase the item. I am sure that you guys can tell. Especially with the fact that I have been using this powder since it was released. But I absolutely repurchase this powder. As soon as I hit the pan on this item, I make sure to purchase another and have it waiting in the wings. I cannot be without this powder. It makes my skin look amazing and is truly unlike anything else that I have ever tried before. It is truly stunning and I highly recommend it to everybody.
I hope that you guys enjoyed this blog post. As I mentioned, I am sure that you already know everything that you need to about this item. Since it was first launched, it has become a cult classic product and that is because it is a truly fantastic item. I adore using this and I look forward to the effect that it will have on my skin. Whenever I reach for this item, my skin always looks flawless and airbrushed, just as the name would suggest. As always, I will pop a link to this item below. Please do leave me a comment below. Let me know if you have tried the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Finish Powder. Are you planning on picking this item up soon?
