How To Use Hollywood Flawless Filter

The thing I love most about Hollywood Flawless Filter – aside from its legendary Hollywood glow – is how versatile it can be in your makeup process. Makeup is so personal and preferences can change from moment to moment. Sometimes, you may want to wear a more minimal makeup look without foundation, and other times you may want beaming cheekbones that could be seen from the stars! Discover 3 ways that I use Hollywood Flawless Filter backstage to give celebrities and stars my signature Tilbury glow.

Hollywood Flawless Filter all shades

  1. Hollywood Flawless Filter used as a glow primer

    1. Wear as a sheer, glowy foundation

    The look: Fresh, radiant glow

    While Hollywood Flawless Filter isn’t technically a foundation, it veils skin in sheer, illuminating coverage that looks so beautiful it can be worn alone. The formula is infused with smoothing, airbrush polymers and finely milled powders to give skin a smoothing and blurring effect; it perfects the look of your complexion while never looking heavy or caked on. I like to use this technique when I want makeup to look naturally enhanced and skin like. To get the look, moisturise with Charlotte’s Magic Cream to create a flawless base for makeup, then apply Hollywood Flawless Filter with the Hollywood Complexion Brush using stippling motions to get that super-smooth, seamless-looking, all-around glow.

    Tilbury Tip: Want a little extra coverage? Apply Charlotte’s Beautiful Skin Radiant Concealer in any areas you want to disguise the look of redness or discolouration.

  2. Hollywood Flawless Filter used mixed with foundation

    2. Wear underneath or mix with foundation as a glow primer

    The look: Soft, radiant glow

    Your favourite foundation and Hollywood Flawless Filter will be fast friends, darlings… Pairing your foundation with the glow-boosting powers of Hollywood Flawless Filter is every glow lover’s dream come true! Often, I will apply Hollywood Flawless Filter first to glow prime, creating a radiant base before applying foundation on top. The silky-smooth formula layers beautifully underneath foundation without patching or balling up and the smoothing and blurring-effect finish will give your foundation of choice a glow boost like no other!

    Tilbury Tip: My filter-effect formula also mixes effortlessly with foundation. If I am reaching for a matte foundation like AIRbrush Flawless Foundation and want to introduce some glow, mixing Hollywood Flawless Filter into your foundation on your hand or a mixing palette can manipulate the finish and add sheer, natural-looking radiance. This is how you get that matte not flat, flawless look.

  3. Hollywood Flawless Filter used as liquid highlighter

    3. Wear on top of foundation as a liquid highlighter

    The look: Highlighted, radiant glow

    They call me the Queen of Glowing Skin, darlings, and Hollywood Flawless Filter is undoubtedly one of my most legendary glow secrets! The super-flattering, skin-like glow can’t be denied! If you love to glow, darlings, you can wear Hollywood Flawless Filter on the tops of your cheekbones to create pools of silky-smooth liquid highlighter that beam bright with Hollywood starlight! To get the look, glide onto your cheeks and anywhere you want to glow – the nose, the brow bone, the Cupid’s bow, even under your eyes – and blend with the Hollywood Complexion Brush. This step will lift and brighten the look of your complexion, pulling focus in all the right places.

    Tilbury Tip: I love to glow, darlings, so I always layer my highlighter to make skin look super-radiant! Highlight with Hollywood Flawless Filter, beautify with my Beauty Light Wand, then spotlight with AIRbrush Brightening Flawless Finish. Trust me, darlings… This glow combo will change your makeup routine!
