Charlotte Tilbury Hits US Retailers In September

by Alexandra Kozinski

If you've been living under a beauty industry rock, Charlotte Tilbury is kind of a big deal. She's been in the biz for over 20 years and her client list includes Kate Moss and J-Lo, just to name a few. In addition to being a celebrity makeup artist, she launched her own cosmetic line in the UK in September of 2013. It's been a long wait, but finally Charlotte Tilbury products will be available in the US come September. Fair warning: You might want to prepare your wallets for this one.

Tilbury's makeup line is conveniently categorized into 10 signature looks, with names such as "The Sophisticate," "The Rebel," and "The Golden Goddess." Her website makes things seriously foolproof, because upon clicking on your desired look, it pulls up a product list of everything you'll need to recreate the pictured look — and I literally mean everything. The product list for each look is extensive, ranging from moisturizer to brow products and everything in between. I can't say I know too many people who would have the patience to use every product listed in one sitting, but Tilbury definitely is thorough, to say the least!

If you're like me and not quite in need of an entirely new makeup collection, there are a few stand-out products in Tilbury's line that are worth checking out, such as the celebrity-favorite Magic Cream. If the name itself doesn't pique your interest, Charlotte describes the product on her site as "a secret mix of patented anti-age ingredients, a hyaluronic acid booster plus floral extracts that lift and transform tired skin in an instant!" Um, I'll take two, please.

I don't know what it is about makeup in stick-form that gets me all hot and bothered, but the Beach Sticks, part of Tilbury's "Makeup In A Minute" range, are seriously calling my name. These creamy, illuminating products are masters of multi-tasking, as they are meant to be swiped along the cheekbones and lips for an effortless glow.

Charlotte Tilbury products will be available at Nordstrom, as well as other select retailers, starting in September. If you can't wait that long, Net-A-Porter has three exclusive beauty kits available for purchase right now, and they look pretty darn tempting.
