One of the main reasons I love makeup is that it allows virtually anyone to have access to luxury products. Not everyone is willing and able to drop a few thousand on a Chanel Bag. Lipstick on the other hand is a much less expensive way for someone to wear Chanel or Dior for example. Charlotte Tilbury cosmetics are some of the very best out there. The renowned makeup artist has worked with It Girls like Kate Moss and Sienna Miller known for their understated, gorgeous and effortlessly cool looks. She even did Amal Clooney’s wedding makeup. From Megan Markle to Kim K, the most A-List celebs with bank rolls to match love Charlotte Tilbury makeup. If you want to take the luxury makeup plunge but don’t know where to start, here are the 5 best Charlotte Tilbury products to try (according to ME).
Matte Revolution Lipstick
Megan Markle loves this shade. Kim K wears this shade (they actually named it after her). My favorite is a cult classic in the shade Pillow Talk. It’s a rosy nude that is actually flattering on every skin color. It looks like your lips but better. Not so nude that it doesn’t look like you’re wearing anything, this color looks polished and timeless.
Brightening Youth Glow
I have to admit, while I LOVE color cosmetics, this skin product is by far my favorite from the brand. I noticed an immediate luminosity to my skin when I first tried the Brightening Youth Glow. I apply it after my serum and under my foundation. The product is thin, not glittery but somehow gives my skin a pearl-like glow. I can not get enough or recommend this highly enough! Here’s what others said about it in a product test group:
according to Bloomingdale’s product description
• 100% saw a visible improvement in skin discoloration and age spots
• 100% saw an improvement in skin tone and luminosity
• 100% agree pores and blemishes are instantly blurred
• 100% agree skin feels moisturized and smoother
• 94% agree it enhances skin glow

Lip Cheat Liner
The name says it all. The texture mimics that of your lips. The name of the product says it all “Lip Cheat Re-Shape & Re-Size Lip Liner” , um okay YES. I use this shade and slightly over line my lips at the cupid’s bow (the “v” shape on the top lip) and my lips look so much more voluptuous. I heard about this trick from Ariel -Kylie Jenner’s go-to makeup guy.
Legendary Lashes Vol 2
The formula is thick so it adds massive volume but also wet which makes lashes long. The wand is fat in the best possible way. I love how black my lashes look when I wear it. I even top off false lashes with this mascara to make them blacker. Grab this mascara here.
Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder
I’m over 35 and don’t ever “bake” my under eyes because it accentuates my fine lines and honestly just looks bad on me. I pat on the thinnest dusting of this pressed powder and my concealer is set without a trace of cakey-ness. I also like to apply this mid day because I tend to get oily in the T-Zone area. The powder is finely milled which means the powder particles are extra tiny making the finish flawless. I love a product that does what it says. Charlotte Tilbury’s do just that. I found out about this one when I attended Kim K’s makeup guru Mario Dedivanovic’s Master Class . He said he uses this on her all the time. Get it here.
