Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk Medium (£27)
"As someone who thought only deep reds, burgundy, and berry tones looked good on me, Charlotte Tilbury's Pillow Talk Medium was my first official foray into the pink-nude realm, and I never looked back. My skin tone is tan/dark tan with neutral undertones, and I always had a tough time finding nudes that suited my complexion, especially a rosy nude that looks romantic and flirty. The berry tones of this lipstick make it approachable for those with a tan skin tone like myself, and it has both warm and cool elements that make it suitable for a variety of undertones. With a little bit of brown lip liner, Pillow Talk Medium seamlessly blended into my complexion, delivering that effortless soft-glam look. This lip combo is perfect for any event, whether it's a wedding or brunch. Beyond the colour and its incredibly pigmented payoff, the texture is flexible and moisturising on the lips, making it such a delight to wear often. This is pretty much the only lipstick I wear for that pinkish-nude look, and with the right lip liner, it's totally worth the hype." — Anvita Reddy, assistant editor, Commerce
