Editor Quote: “Not gonna lie, the first time I heard about Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk Lipstick, I immediately scoffed at the ‘universally flattering’ language that was used to describe it. But then I actually tried it, and I was floored. The lipstick is a gorgeous, slightly cool-toned pink that felt so incredibly comfortable on my lips as a matte formula. I pair it with any brown lip liner, and the way my lips look perfectly pink and plump makes my heart sing every time.” — Ariel Baker, assistant editor, Beauty
