Charlotte Tilbury Stroll of No Disgrace Jewel Pots Critiques & Swatches

Charlotte Tilbury Walk of No Shame Jewel Pots ($35.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a medium-dark, reddish-copper with flecks of pink and gold sparkle over a more satiny base. The texture was slightly firmer and stiffer in the jar, and it seemed to work better when it was a little warmer and applied with a fingertip, which was how the brand recommended applying it.

It didn’t feel that much like a cream eyeshadow–it felt more like a cream-powder hybrid–the texture was no where near as emollient as it seemed it would be (from the brand’s descriptions). It never felt like a traditional cream eyeshadow during application, as it applied and felt like a powder and diffused like one. The finish was slightly shinier, so between the sparkles and sheen, it did look somewhat “wet” when worn at full opacity.

The pigmentation was opaque in a single layer, and it could be diffused with a fingertip to more medium coverage. It was more ambiguous whether the brand meant it was buildable with respect to the shimmer/sparkle or the coverage (their demo showed fairly opaque results in “one pass” from what I could tell). The color stayed on well for eight hours before fading a bit, but there was light fallout over time.
