The Sunday Times Style: The Glamorous World of Charlotte Tilbury

Darlings, get a glimpse into my exclusive interview with The Sunday Times Style and discover the 5 must-have Charlotte Tilbury products in beauty journalist Hadley Freeman’s makeup bag.

“The glowy, sparkly Tilbury look is era-defining. She is Britain’s first global make-up behemoth, England’s very own Estée Lauder.” – The Sunday Times Style on Charlotte Tilbury

The Sunday Times Style Charlotte Tilbury

Darlings, it was my pleasure to sit down with The Sunday Times Style in December to talk about my partnership with Elton John’s Rocket Fund and my mission to share the confidence-boosting power of makeup with everyone, everywhere!

I’ve known Hadley Freeman – acclaimed journalist for The Sunday Times – for years, and I was thrilled to hear that my makeup and skincare are mainstays in her beauty bag.

We talked about the transformative effects of makeup and how it can instantly elevate your mood, as well as my magical journey from makeup artist to brand owner; what it takes to chair a successful, eponymous beauty brand; and how the ‘Charlotte Tilbury Effect’ has grown and grown, dominating the beauty industry in just a decade!

“Whether you’re in Selfridges or a make-up boutique such as Space NK, it’s always the Tilbury counter that is overwhelmed with customers while the other brands can only look on enviously.” – The Sunday Times Style on Charlotte Tilbury Beauty
