Few beauty companies can elicit the kind of fervor people have for Charlotte Tilbury and her eponymous line of glowy, hyper-feminine cosmetics. Obsessed over by celebrities, Tilbury’s fellow makeup artists, and hordes of fans alike, it seems like no one can get enough of the best-selling brand. Fortunately for everyone, Tilbury shows no signs of slowing down any time soon, especially with her famous Pillow Talk line pumping out cult-favorites like it’s nobody’s business.

The iconic pinky-nude hue is slowly taking over Charlotte Tilbury’s entire collection. The people want this shade available for every makeup product humanly possible, as evidenced by the fact that a Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk product is sold every minute. Luckily for all the Pillow Talk fanatics out there, the brand obliges the demand.

In July 2021, Charlotte Tilbury expanded its Pillow Talk collection with the debut of a cream shadow shade and the reintroduction of one cult-favorite cheek product and followed up a few months later with a holiday collection (featuring Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor as campaign head) full of Pillow Talk goodness — like a whole collector’s box of the line. So, what is it about Pillow Talk that gets people so wound up? The simple shade that started as a singular lipstick has boomed into a full-on line that expands beyond the scopes of lip and cheek products — but more on that below.

What's included in the Pillow Talk makeup line?

Pillow Talk, Charlotte Tilbury’s signature assemblage of the line’s sultriest (and often most reflective) products, is already something of the brand’s centerpiece. Inspired by the original Pillow Talk lipstick, itself a pouty shade of rosebud-pink, the Pillow Talk empire now encompasses lip glosses, lipstick, liners, eyeshadows, and even mascara, all promising an alluring look worthy of the name. “When I first started out as a makeup artist, I used to mix multiple lip colors to get the perfect, beauty-enhancing pillow-y-nudey-pink hue,” Tilbury once told TZR. "It then became my dream to bottle that pout-perfecting, suits-all shade and share this beauty secret with the world.” Since the 2017 birth of Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk Matte Revolution Lipstick, the line has expanded to include a Pillow Talk product for about everything under the sun, launch after creamy blush and tinted eye-cream launch.
