Slay alert: Charlotte Tilbury just spilled her holiday makeup secrets, and let me tell you—this is not about glitter. The queen of holiday glam revealed her go-to hacks for that airbrushed, lit-from-within look that lasts through midnight parties and awkward family photos. Spoiler: It’s all about layering, patience, and a little bit of science.
First up? The sandwich hack. Tilbury’s obsession with her Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray isn’t just hype—it’s a game-changer. “Set your makeup, then apply a thin layer of Airbrush Flawless Finish down the face, then mist again,” she says. It’s like giving your skin a triple-layered hug. The result? A flawless base that stays put through 12-hour champagne sipping and 2 AM karaoke. Pro tip: Use setting spray on your eye shadow brush before blending—your lids won’t ghost like a drama queen.
Next, Tilbury’s dreamy shimmery eye look. She’s basically a glitter wizard, but this isn’t about flash. It’s about subtle glow. Start with a warm nude or brown base (yes, even for darker skin tones), then layer a shimmer shade on the center of your lids. “Tap it on with your ring finger,” she says. “It’s like painting by numbers.” For depth, smudge a darker shade into the crease and along your lash lines. The final effect? A soft, ethereal eye that’s too pretty for a Zoom call.
And let’s talk about that perfect base. Tilbury’s new Airbrush Flawless Foundation is basically a skincare serum in disguise. “Less is more,” she says. Half a pump? That’s all you need. The formula now has anti-aging goodies to tackle fine lines and pigmentation—so your skin looks like it’s been on a spa retreat, not a 12-hour party. Pair it with a hydrating moisturizer (Milk Makeup’s Hydro Grip Primer is my fave) and you’re golden.
💫 2) Layer your foundation with Airbrush Flawless Finish for a “skin-like” finish.
Key points: 1) Use setting spray as a primer for your eye shadow. 2) Layer your foundation with Airbrush Flawless Finish for a “skin-like” finish. 3) Master the Strawberry Chocolate Lip hack with a neutral liner and plumping gloss.
