Andrea Lavinthal, Style & Beauty Director:At first I didn’t think Charlotte Tilbury Cheek to Chic in First Love would do anything for me since the colors are kind of muted, but I was so wrong. You’re supposed to use the two shades to contour, but I just swirl them together and it creates the prettiest glow.
