I'm never usually one for bright or bold colours, especially not red but this Charlotte Tilbury lipstick in the colour So Marilyn really caught my eye...
Recently I reviewed the K.I.S.S.I.N.G Stoned Rose lipstick which you can read here. I am fairly new to the Charlotte Tilbury range of cosmetics but so far everything I have tried I have loved!
What first attracted me to this colour was probably the name So Marilyn, anything with the name Marilyn instantly reminds me of the classic 1950`s look of red lips and winged eyeliner which is a winning combination. I would never usually choose a lipstick like this, much preferring to wear more natural and nude tones but once applied this colour leaves a very shiny, highly pigmented finish, I would describe this colour as ruby red and best suited to wear for nights out or a date.
These lipsticks claim to make lips appear bigger and with the Stoned Rose lipstick I did not notice any difference but with this colour I definitely noticed a difference, my lips appeared slightly fuller and I received many compliments. It looks very bright in daylight, perhaps a little too bright for my liking but still, this is a gorgeous colour that definitely reminds me of Marilyn Monroe and one which I will definitely wear in future.
