This season, Pillow Talk, the beauty brand, introduces two new products: the Pillow Talk Beauty Soulmates Face Palette and the Pillow Talk Love Effect Lipsticks. The palette includes an Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder designed to neutralise dark under-eye circles and redness, paired with a Pillow Talk Love Blush for a healthy flush. Meanwhile, the lipsticks offer four new shades with lasting, hydrating colours. The new collection is available online and will arrive at other retailers shortly.
The Pillow Talk Soulmates Collection has an intriguing history. Per the official website, “Love is a natural beauty booster, darlings… I studied the way blood rushes to your lips and cheeks when you fall in love… The way kissing releases a rush of endorphins that enhance the look of your lips… The way you glow differently on your wedding day… Then, I created my nude-pink makeup universe inspired by these nature-blessed love tones!”
Charlotte Tilbury has a history of featuring prominent personalities in its campaigns, such as Twiggy, Joan Collins and Kylie Minogue. “Kim knows what she wants and understands the power of self-love, which is what this campaign is a celebration of. She is the ultimate Pillow Talk Beauty Muse,” said Tilbury. “She’s cheeky, naughty, fearless and exudes limitless confidence and empowerment. She embodies everything my brand stands for!”
