At first it took a lot of convincing.. £19 for an eyeshadow?! really Eman..? I lost to the voice in my head and eventually ended up purchasing all eight! X_X (Over the space of a few months)
Trust me once you get yourself to a Charlotte Tilbury counter you ask yourself why you never had before.
I can't express how much I love, love, love, love, LOVE the Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleons! I particularly am obsessing over two colours Golden Quarts and smoky Emerald having hazel eyes I feel that Charlotte really hit the nail on the head as these colours are amazing. every time I have worn them I get numerous questions and compliments.
The main downfall I have experienced is that they need to be sharpened after almost every use; Given the super silky soft texture. Because of this you will lose some product with every sharpen.. but.. we knew this already.. and it doesn’t bother us right??? well… it kind of bothers me.. but then I realise that I don’t finish a lot of make up that often as I move onto the next! I personally feel that they work with or without a primer. Application of the pencils is great, I kinda just scribble everywhere! They can be quite harsh and rough to blend over the lid which is why id promote in using a primer as a base first.
Tried and tested - They are easily removed with an oil cleanser and they don’t stain the eyelid!!! This kind of result always makes me happy!I just wish they invested in better caps on the pencils as they are not very secure! Mine tend to end up under my bed or lost somewhere in that never..ever... ending bag of mine! They are by far the best eyeshadow pencils I have every tried. very creamy, soft and pigmented.
Smoky emerald has a blackish emerald base with Gold, Lime AND Pink Shimmers.It is pure lush! Golden Quartz has a more brownish background with goldfish shimmer. The colour chameleons lasts for around 10-14 hours without budging, which is their main selling point. You really won't believe it until you try it! even I was a bit spectacle at first.

Its really hard to choose as they are all so so beautiful but but but if I had too..id say out of the eight id say Smoky Emerald and Golden Quartz have the best colour pay off, the best texture of the 6 shades, they are rich in colour and are very. opaque and best of all.. no patchiness - Wooo! These two colours especially never leave my makeup bag.. I carry them with me always. They are such game changers!I found that the key to using Colour Chameleons as an eyeliner really comes down the brush used with the product.
Colour Chameleon Eyeshadow Pencils are , £19 each and some in a range of eight colours there are four colours recommend for day and four colours for night to suit all eye colours. Golden Quartz and Smokey Emerald are the day and night Colours recommend for Hazel eyes
Champagne diamonds and Black diamonds are the day and night colours recommended for Blue eyes.
Dark Pearl and Amber Haze are the day and night colours recommended for Brown eyes.
Bronzed Garnet and Amethyst Aphrodisiac are day and night colours recommended for Green eyes.
I purchased mine at the Selfridges, London counter.Staff are very friendly and helpful.
