Kim Cattrall turns 70 today (Friday, August 21) and the Sex and the City star looks as beautiful as ever. Known for her portrayal as powerful PR executive Samantha Jones in the popular HBO series, the British-Canadian actress has long been a beauty icon.
The star's love of lipstick
In an interview with Elle, Kim said she discovered her love for lipstick after trying on her mum's as a child. She still loves wearing lipstick, starring in a Charlotte Tilbury campaign promoting the brand's popular Love Effects line last year.
In response to a question posed to her about her love of lipstick, Kim said: "I love lipstick because it’s kind of very European and French too. I just put a little bit of lipstick on. The rest I just don’t have time for."

Charlotte Tilbury's Mini Pillow Talk Lip Kit features a travel-size Matte Revolution Lipstick and a Lip Cheat Liner. An award-winning nude-pink lipstick, Pillow Talk is known for its universally flattering matte finish, and it's so popular, one is sold every 10 seconds.
It's available in four shades including Pillow Talk Original, Pillow Talk Fair, Pillow Talk Medium, and Pillow Talk Deep. The mini Pillow Talk lipstick is enriched with hydrating lip tree extracts, light-diffusing pigments and abyssinian oil for a long-lasting, moisturised look with a sumptuous satin formula.
The set also comes with a Lip Cheat liner which features the brand's renowned waterproof formula to help define, reshape and resize the appearance of lips. It also stops the lipstick from feathering or settling into fine lines or wrinkles.
Alternatives and reviews
If you'd prefer a more sheer lipstick, Clinique's Pink Honey is available for £20 instead of £25 with the discount code 'BEAUTY20' applied at checkout. A lightweight, tinted balm, it features a hybrid formula that is not quite a lipstick and not quite a gloss, delivering a soft, glossy 'your lips but better' finish.
Alternatively, the Caviar Smoothing Matte Lipstick in shade '668 Rose Crepe' by Laura Mercier costs £36 at Space NK. The luxurious lipstick delivers a stunning matte finish that smooths and blurs imperfections, for a long-lasting look.
The innovative formula glides on effortlessly, enriched with nourishing shea butter and hyaluronic acid for exceptional comfort and moisture. Lips stay defined for up to 12 hours, with no bleeding or feathering.
Back at Charlotte Tilbury, the Mini Pillow Talk Lip Kit has racked up almost 70 five-star reviews. One satisfied shopper said: "Fast delivery of a perfect product.
"This item is just right size for someone who doesn't use lipstick on a daily basis. Great that includes liner too."
A second wrote: "Perfect colour. I bought this mini set for my daughter’s wedding as it will fit perfectly into my clutch. Can’t wait to use it to top up on the day."
"Absolutely stunning," a third penned. "This fair shade is perfect for me, I have fallen in love with this. It is my first Pillow Talk lipstick and this mini set is perfect to try before I buy the full size. It’s so, so pretty it’s unreal. The perfect pinky shade, I love it."
One shopper, however, wasn't overly thrilled with the colour of the lipstick in the Mini Pillow Talk Lip Kit, giving it a three-star review. They stated: "I was disappointed in the colour.
It didn’t look the same as the pictures on the website or on the box. Was expecting a more pinky colour but was more an orangey brown."
"It was ok," another three-star review mentions. " I thought it would have been more pink tone. On me it was peach."
Nevertheless, someone else loved their latest Charlotte Tilbury purchase, adding: "I bought this little set for my wedding. my makeup artist used it on my trial and I instantly fell in love with it. I knew I needed it for top-ups through the day and for after the wedding."
Another five-star review reads: "I love the original Pillow Talk but decided to try as thought the shade would look better with a powder blue dress. I was right - this one is more pink than the original, love it. And love the mini kits as a way to try."
