CHARLOTTE TILBURY SUN KISSED GLOW CREAM BRONZER | fair skin | over 40

[@georgiam2259]

I wish these came in a mini version. Thanks for the review!

[@Budgi3girl]

Exactly. I love when companies do mini sizes! I don’t wear makeup everyday so products last ages. I try more products/ shades too!

[@MagicDarkStar]

I am so tempted ! I’m quite pale and am struggling which to choose, if I can’t choose then I won’t be getting one, as my elders used to tell me ‘if you can’t choose then don’t bother’I am also starting to steer away from Charlotte tilbury, the brand just doesn’t have the same excitement anymore and the prices are getting ridiculous ! It’s a shame as it used to be my favourite brand.

[@allisonwhisler4149]

I’m falling out of love too. Everything has an orange undertone on me. Would it kill her to release release some cool toned large palettes? However, I am interested in this.

[@jofereday7213]

I’m a 2N in Dior, so fairly pale, & my medium bronzer came today, & I was like hells bells that’s dark! But I’ve tried it & it’s beautiful, so glad I didn’t go for the fair, as it does look very cool & more of a contour shade than a bronzer 😊

[@adreaminfocus]

Ooh great I think I’ll go with your suggestion … medium it is

[@Anu-pf4wi]

Thats my idea as well…. Affraid fair its too cool and contour for my pale skin as well🤢

Both shades looked beautiful on you, I wouldn't like to say which was best. I must say I'm surprised how matte it looks for a CT product, her models usually look like the tinman.

I love Charlotte Tilbury products. They are so beautiful.

[@adreaminfocus]

I do too

[@meenasian4073]

Just wanted to comment and don’t know if you would agree but because your going back to being blonde in hair colour and I can see your greyer hairs at your roots (I’m exactly the same with my greys and I’m the same age as you 42) I think you would look really awesome with the silver grey hair fully all over. Just think it would really suit you 👍 Love your channel as well always tune in to watch your reviews and tutorials and I too am a northern lass 🙌 - love you ❤️🙏😘

[@julianursten6399]

I agree Meena. Once I started watching Monique Parent I wasn’t afraid of going grey anymore. I am embracing it. However, I am 72 so maybe it’s an easier option for me. I wonder if I would have embraced grey at 42

[@meenasian4073]

@@julianursten6399 I completely agree embrace your greys I really want to embrace mine but my husband keeps saying nooo not yet 😆😆 but I know I will do for sure in the future 🙏☺️ I just keep seeing Gemma’s awesome grey roots and then I think to myself just go fully silver grey like your gorgeous mum - it would look so stunning on her ❤️❤️

[@rosieHolliday5887]

I briefly saw this on another channel yesterday afternoon & my immediate thoughts....."I need to see Gemma try this!" 😆I literally can't buy anything without seeing it on your channel first 😄

[@Bodenesque]

I too had found a lot of CT products hit or miss & had stopped buying the brand, but had a feeling this was good & also bought shades 1 & 2. I’m a light medium skin & can use both & blooming love them. It’s the perfect consistency & the perfect replacement to my old Chanel Cream bronzer - cos the new Chanel formulation isn’t 😉

[@MsBNoodle]

Good to know thanks!

[@chaosbecomesher]

Ooooh, thank you! I never tried the Chanel cream bronzer before the new formulation and have been curious!

[@amimay574]

I’ve watched this video 4 times trying to decide what shade to get. I’ve just ordered fair and now having regrets…maybe I’ll end up with both too 🙈

[@doodlebear7958]

I watched Charlotte’s video but was waiting for yours as I’m closer skin tone wise to you. I’m scared of bronzer as I often look orange. I really didn’t like the Chanel. I am tempted by the fair BUT could it look a bit muddy? And that price 😩. The only bronzer I use is the light filmstar bronze and glow and even then sparingly!

[@antonjenet3812]

I love so much Charlotte Tilbury makeup. Thanks 😊

[@MsBNoodle]

Shocking that the packaging is already scratched. This is a product that should last 2 years, and it's not cheap.

[@joanie-music]

And the packaging is a knockoff from Makeup Revolution Glow Splendor bronzer from 2020!

[@MsBNoodle]

@@joanie-music just googled, very similar!

[@Donna-cc1kt]

Channel bronzer is less expensive than Charlotte Tilbury & Huda. Wow.

[@Mamado88]

Chanel is an awful shade though, so orange ick

[@allie1914]

The Chanel is less pigmented so probably need to use more and as lots of people have said the shade range is rubbish

[@cherylb_88]

@@Mamado88 completely agree! I hated the shade. I haven’t tried the reformation but the original one was awful

[@trppro7640]

Thanks for the detail. I love a cool toned bronzer It has a lot of colour payout. Looks lovely.

Both are drop dead gorgeous on you! I will get the fair, for the cooler tone… mainly to contour.

[@gladysgarrity5721]

Hi Gemma the blusher is just beautiful I watched Charlotte she fine a fabulous review to the product is fabulous 🌸🌺🌼🌹

[@marywiththelonghair1330]

YAS! I am cool/fair and I can’t wait to scoop up the fair shade of this! Wouldn’t mind the medium shade also, but for the price, I’ll go with fair. I’ve got similar ones to the second one. It’s hard to find a good cream bronzer for fair skin. They all pull orange on me. I haven’t even seen this on the face yet, but I’m sold. I hope I can get it next week! Very intrigued by how firm it is. I’m not scared of creams or liquids, I love them, but the stiffest cream bronzer I have is from Fenty. Anywho - great video so far! ❤️❤️

[@rebeccac.1758]

I'm buying this 100%

[@ASIIIULKA91]

I love this bronzer

[@Littlen80]

It’s a big fat yes from me 🙈❤️Love CT 🤍

[@twoleftfeet9626]

I got the fair shade. I am your shade twin and am really happy with the fair shade (btw, you were right about the Lancome Idole waterproof mascara, it is very good. I ordered the idole concealer on your recommendation. I find the Doublewear concealer to be better than Pat Mcgrath which runs off on me, so I will be interested to see how the Idole one compares)

[@Annie-wy4rr]

So do you prefer this one or channel? X

[@PamperedWolf]

This one x

[@patriciaquintela899]

Well, I do like CT’s package more and has a mirror, but the others have also ok packages and are cheaper. I will have to test them 👏

[@janearcher3834]

This does look great on you. Gemma, could you please do a tutorial on getting a fair person ( I am your shade twin) doing a 'no makeup' bronzy look. The kind of look you might have if you spent the day at the beach in Greece (I'm going there this summer), but don't want to actually get sun - without having a bronzed head on a white body! I am practically translucent without makeup, and don't plan on getting an actual tan. I have seen a few products which look gorgeous such as the Tower Bronzino Illuminating Cream Bronzer in West Coast. When I put that on my skin it look like evening sunlight on my skin. But I don't know how to get the whole look. Pleeeeze!!!

[@adreaminfocus]

I’ll second this!!!!

[@janelleespinosa6247]

Your application is so amazing, this looked gorgeous on you. Right now I am totally in love with creams, and the Rare Beauty bronzer is taking me there!! Great video, love your channel!

[@cabrooker]

Can’t wait for these to get to another retailer as CT doesn’t accept international cards!!! This looks soooo lovely

[@thorbjorgsveinsdottir8564]

Have you tried Paypal? i am from Iceland and I can use Paypal in Sephora even (they don’t accept my card but I can use it through Paypal, then I send it ofc to a friend in NY)

[@samantarizzi248]

I’m getting the shade Fair for Christmas! 🙂 Hopefully I’ll like it as much as you do. Usually I am a huge fan of CT products! 🥰 I was thinking about getting Tom Ford Terra bronzer but then I changed my mind and decided to get this cream bronzer by CT. It’s much more cool toned and much more affordable and you get a bigger amount of product in it as well. 😃

[@ginamiller6754]

Thx! Great review! I’m going to stick with the Chanel for bronzing my face as my skin is very dry. I will eventually get the C.T. crm bronzer in fair to contour my jaw line as it looks to be very close to the Filmstar bronze &glow contour shade. I’m transitioning to mostly cream products for my dry, mature skin. There is a learning curve to using mostly cream products, but my skin prefers them.

[@thorbjorgsveinsdottir8564]

I guess I will end up picking them both up 🙈 I am pretty fair and love cool tone bronzers like you BUT the medium looks amazing on you so I really wan´t that one to 🙄🤗😝 Lot´s of love from Iceland 🇮🇸 Too bad I just came from London and visited the store in Covent Garden (met a fellow Icelander who just started working there …so cool) but these had not launched 🥴

[@Sarah-gf9ed]

Thank you so much for this clip! I am still deciding which colour to go for, fair or medium, both look stunning on you!

Hmm, when my Fenty bronzer runs out I might try this.

[@Rache_777]

[@stevdaughtr6098]

Am I crazy or does that look a little orange? It might just be the camera. It probably is. But I am intrigued bc times i wear creams sometimes pulls a longwear foundation up so def intriguing 🤔

Looks so beautiful on you. Initially, i was waiting for CT cream bronzer release, and then i saw Chanel new les beiges powder bronzer. Now i dont know which one to choose 😂 I think i will get both in Medium. I look awful in cool tones, and apart Sisley touche de soleil, i dont think i have anything in warm tone. I have Chantecaille in Serena, and its ok , but little cool on me. And CT powder bronzer i have in medium, but its not so warm either . i think i probably needed tan one. Ah and i was keep saying to myself i dont need anymore makeup, but its hard resist Chanel les beiges collection 😳😂 Have a blessed day 🙏🧡

Do I, don't I? Atm, I'm loving the Rare Beauty bronzer stick and I want to try the Milk Makeup new bronzer ... so do I add another one to the shopping list?

Oooo didn’t know milk had a new bronzer. Is it the one in the tube. I’ve just done a bit of a search. I’ve always wanted to try the stick too. Bare minerals used to do a liquid/ runny gel bronzer and they discontinued it that was my favourite bronzer. Not found anything I liked as much as that ☹️

I like CT products but what I don’t like are the ridiculous claims on some products & overly dramatic flowery language. I can’t get into the “250% of women said they looked 20 years younger” and fifty “darlings” 😂🤦‍♀️

[@PamperedWolf]

You and me both! xxx

[@MsBNoodle]

I saw a product the other day that had "normal" %s on it and I remember looking at it thinking what a contrast to Charlotte Tilbury's odd stats.

[@Budgi3girl]

Exactly… the language and claims really put me off too! It’s like they say let’s make some claims up, flatter them and they will buy it as they are dim …..but we aren’t that dim! They take what are usually really nice /beautiful products anyway and claim they are life changing, make you look sixteen and a wonder-product! Nothing wrong with a plain ole beautiful product! CT stop treating us as though we believe the hype! Excellent comment Dana. Xx

[@meganburbage1232]

While the "darlings" thing is annoying, the increases of 250 percent aren't that crazy. 250 percent just means 2.5x. So if there is 250 percent more moisture in the skin that just means double the moisture level, for example. But I agree the pretentiousness of CT is off putting.

[@MsBNoodle]

@@meganburbage1232 I do get that. But can't see why they don't go for 2.5x instead of the biggest looking number they can find.

[@kristinapella]

I always wondered if I can use bronzer. I'm very pale, so i thought if I use bronzer the rest of my body stays pale (if that makes sense)... Do I have bronze the rest of my body so my face wouldn't stand out... I don't contour either because to me it still looks like bruises

[@wakinunu]

What foundation are you wearing, it's beautiful 😍

[@Budgi3girl]

Great review. Can I ask anyone with the original Channel cream bronzer what texture is it. Gemma described it here as a cream slippery, emollient, with a sheen type of finish. I don’t find this, I find it quite dry and almost cream to powder finish.. not matte but definitely no sheen. I was disappointed when I got it as I was hoping it was a cream and not like a solid creme kind of thing. Have I got a dud! Should it be as Gemma described? My dry Skin would prefer a sheen and a more moisturising finish ☺️

[@zarawani8]

The original Chanel cream bronzer was a drier matte finish like you have described but they reformulated it and now it’s more emollient

[@Budgi3girl]

I loved the Bareminerals ‘sheer sun’ Bare Skin liquid bronzer🤎🤎🤎 but it was discontinued. I know a different product than a cream but has anyone got any recommendations for liquid bronzers please? Ideally for fair skin with no or very very little shimmer. I don’t mind a sheen or a dewy / moisturised look / finish as I have dry dry skin. I’m having a nightmare replacing it since they discontinued it. The ones I’ve tried are all to radiant/shimmery for me and my crinkled skin 🤪😆

Personally I don’t think you can say a brand is overpriced unless you’ve tried it - unless it’s way more expensive than similar brands on the market Charlotte Tilbury isn’t more expensive than a lot of high brands And a lot of the dupe products manage to dupe the colours but not the formulas Non of this is specific to Charlotte Tilbury but just in general seems a bit unfair to say a brand is overpriced if you haven’t tried it

Usually Tilbury packaging is unique to her brand. Not this time. Tilbury cheapened out. Cut corners. This packaging is a direct knockoff from the Makeup Revolution Glow Splendour bronzer, from 2020!

[@PamperedWolf]

Revolution has been trying to knock off CT product packaging for years so it's highly likely it's the other way around. CT brought out the red and gold packaging years ago with their New Year range and it's consistently appeared in her collection including the limited edition ranges. xxx

[@joanie-music]

@@PamperedWolf Tons of brands are continually trying to knock off Tilbury. So maybe it's poetic it's flipped on them this time. Regardless, their 2020 bronzer packaging, is CT's 2022 bronzer packaging. Tilbury normally 'creates' new unique packaging. Tilbury's new release has used generic packaging, with her logo/branding stamped on it.
