Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte Darling Easy Eye Palette Review & Swatches
Charlotte Darling
Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte Darling Easy Eye Palette includes six shades that have been pulled from Bella Sofia (previously The Dolce Vita) and the Love Eyes/Happy Eyes trios from the Stars in Your Eyes palette. All six shades performed well; they were pigmented, blendable, and easy to work with and lasted eight to nine hours on me.
Charlotte Tilbury The Dolce Vita #1 Eyeshadow
The Dolce Vita #1
The Dolce Vita #1 is a bright, light-medium gold with strong, warm peach undertones and a metallic finish. The eyeshadow had rich color coverage paired with a smooth, cream-like texture that was dense without being too heavy or too thick, so it sat well on bare skin and blended out easily. I felt like it was softer than I recall the original quad I have this in (which was from when the first debuted stateside). It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before starting to fade.
Charlotte Tilbury Love Eyes (Enhance) Eyeshadow
Love Eyes (Enhance)
Love Eyes (Enhance) is a peachy coral with warm undertones and a metallic finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer with a lightly creamy texture that was soft, yielding but not powdery to work with. This shade wore well for eight and a half hours before showing signs of fading.
Charlotte Tilbury Love Eyes (Smoke) Eyeshadow
Love Eyes (Smoke)
Love Eyes (Smoke) is a medium-dark coral with warm undertones and a matte finish. It was intensely pigmented with a soft, silky texture that was a smidgen dusty in the pan but applied evenly and maintained its intensity when blended out. It lasted well for eight and a half hours before fading noticeably.
Charlotte Tilbury Happy Eyes (Prime) Eyeshadow
Happy Eyes (Prime)
Happy Eyes (Prime) is a bright, medium-dark reddish-copper with warm undertones and a metallic finish. The eyeshadow had opaque color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly and smoothly to my lid. The texture was lightly creamy, dense without being too heavy or too stiff in the pan, so it had great adhesion but was easy to work with. The color stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before showing signs of wear.
Charlotte Tilbury Happy Eyes (Enhance) Eyeshadow
Happy Eyes (Enhance)
Happy Eyes (Enhance) is a muted, medium orange-brown with warm undertones and a matte finish. It was richly pigmented with a smooth, velvety texture that was easy to work with as it blended out nicely but retained its intensity. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me before fading a bit.
Charlotte Tilbury Happy Eyes (Smoke) Eyeshadow
Happy Eyes (Smoke)
Happy Eyes (Smoke) is a muted, medium brown with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had excellent color payoff in one layer, which adhered well to bare skin and blended out easily. The consistency was soft, smooth, and not too firmly nor too softly pressed into the pan. It lasted well for eight and a half hours before fading noticeably.
