Your summer glow starts with skincare, darlings. Skin looks its most radiant when it has been cared for correctly with supercharged skincare. To set your summer glow off to a glowing start, give yourself an at-home glow facial to hydrate, plump, and illuminate the look of your skin. Glowing skincare products help to boost your natural radiance and give your complexion the lit-from-within look of a day in the sunshine. Perform your summer skincare routine morning and night and your skin will glow around the clock!
Glow Toner: my daily radiance solution with niacinamide that refines the appearance of pores and gives skin a youthful-looking glow.
Charlotte’s Magic Serum Crystal Elixir: my youth-boosting face serum that deeply hydrates skin with polyglutamic acid and brightens the look of your complexion with Golden™ vitamin C.
Charlotte’s Magic Water Cream: my fragrance-free gel moisturiser that floods skin with hydration and unlocks a glassy, fresh water glow.
Charlotte’s Magic Cream: my immediate skin revival moisturiser with Cushion + Lift Mesh Technology to smooth, lift, and plump the look of skin.
Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil: my collagen-powered face oil that smooths, plumps, and brightens the look of skin.
A suntan with a healthy glow makes everyone feel ready for summer, but all of that sun exposure can be perilous for our skin! Too much sun is a beauty sin and can accelerate signs of ageing – but what if I told you that you can get a beautiful vacation glow from your boudoir? Tanning drops are a wonderful alternative to a natural tan; they give your complexion a sun-kissed summer glow that looks as if you spent a week on the beach! I created Beautiful Skin Island Glow Easy Tanning Drops to make self-tanning quick and easy for everyone! Even if you’ve never applied self-tanner before, these tanning drops are effortless to apply – you can even mix them in with your moisturiser! I recommend anywhere from 2 to 12 drops depending on the depth of tan you’re looking for (remember darlings, they will develop over 8 hours to give you an even-looking summer glow!). Massage a few drops into your face and neck morning or night and your bronzed summer glow has arrived!
SPF is an important part of your beauty routine all year long, but during the summer months when the sun’s rays are at their most intense it’s even more crucial to help protect your skin with a high-factor sunscreen. In the past, I’ve worn sunscreens that have clogged my pores and not played well with makeup, so I knew I wanted to create an undetectable sunscreen that delivers maximum SPF 50+++++ protection, feels hydrating and layers effortlessly with makeup. Invisible UV Flawless Poreless Primer is the primer I wear every day to prime my face and help shield my skin from harmful UV rays. On the skin, it feels deeply hydrating and has a smoothing, blurring effect that helps makeup to look even more flawless, and it has an invisible finish which means zero white cast on every skin tone. I adore this product – I even wear it at night because I just love the way it makes my skin glow!
Summer makeup is all about keeping foundation minimal and letting the natural radiance of your skin shine through. Reaching for a glowy, light-coverage foundation, tinted moisturiser, or skin tint is perfect for creating an effortless, beachy complexion that enhances your summer glow. Give your skin a super-natural summer glow with my Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint Hydrating Foundation Stick – it’s my natural-looking, light-coverage stick foundation with a ring light effect that makes skin glow! Or, if you prefer a more bronzed look, choose Unisex Healthy Glow tinted moisturiser to give your complexion a moisturised, sun-kissed appearance – it’s like summer in a bottle!
Tilbury Tip: Looking for a little more coverage, darling? Charlotte’s Beautiful Skin Foundation is a buildable, medium-coverage foundation that will give your complexion a healthy-looking summer glow.
Bronzer is your best friend when it comes to a summer glow, darlings! Cream bronzer melts effortlessly into the skin and gives your face a dimensional, soft-sculpted look. I like to use a cream bronzer like my Beautiful Skin Sun-Kissed Glow Bronzer to give the complexion a sun-bronzed appearance. This easy cream bronzer is infused with sunshine provitamin D3 which converts to vitamin D3 in the sunlight, helping to give your face an even-looking, sun-kissed summer glow! The formula is also sweatproof and humidity-proof which is essential in hot summer weather. For a beach-bronzed look, I recommend buffing cream bronzer onto the temples and the bridge of the nose with my Beautiful Skin Bronzing Brush to mimic the look of a day out in the sun.
For a magical summer glow in a wave of a magic wand, choose your favourite shades of my social media sensation Beauty Light Wands and give your cheeks the most mesmeric summer glow! My iconic beauty wands have a unique, high-gloss liquid formula that blends effortlessly into the cheekbones like a pool of beauty light! Just dot, dot, dot onto the cheeks and blend for a seamless summer glow in seconds! I created my Pinkgasm Sunset Beauty Light Wand as the shade of the summer; it’s a radiant rose that’s inspired by the gorgeous pink glow that lights up the sky at sunset and it’s perfect for giving your makeup look a sun-blushed effect.
Every eyeshadow look that I create has a distinctive persona that can change the way you look and feel – whether you’re The Rebel, The Sophisticate, or The Rock Chick. If your look of the day is focused on creating a summer glow, then The Golden Goddess is the perfect eye look for the occasion. The Golden Goddess Luxury Palette features four sandy, golden tones that are a flawless match for glowing, bronzed skin and sun-blushed cheeks. Following my easy PRIME, ENHANCE, SMOKE and POP eyeshadow method, light up the look of your eyes with the golden tones in The Golden Goddess and create a sizzling smokey eye that’s the embodiment of summer glow. Complete your Golden Goddess eyeshadow look with The Classic eyeliner in Shimmering Brown and Full Fat Lashes! mascara.
Tilbury Tip: If you want to dial up your eye makeup, I recommend tapping a golden cream eyeshadow like Eyes to Mesmerise in Golden Eclipse onto the centre of your eyelid to add dazzling, metallic shine.
I like to reach for glowy lip products during the summer because not only do they give your lips a gorgeous, dimensional glow, but they’re perfect for keeping your pout hydrated in warm weather. My perfect summer lipstick combination is threefold: a natural-looking lip liner to emphasise the look of your lip shape; a satin-shine lipstick that swipes on a moisturising coat of colour; and a glimmering lip gloss that makes lips glow!
Lip Cheat: my reshape and resize lip liner that contours the look of your lips and provides natural-looking, waterproof colour for at least 6 hours*. I recommend pinks like Icon Baby and Love Trap or Nudes like Iconic Nude and Foxy Brown to complement your summer glow.
K.I.S.S.I.N.G Lipstick: my moisturising, satin-shine lipstick with light-diffusing pigments that helps lips to look fuller, poutier, and more luminous. Choose Coral Kiss, Stoned Rose, or Island Dream for your best summer glow.
Collagen Lip Bath: my collagen-infused sheer sparkle lip gloss with a subtle plumping effect. Shade Refresh Rose is a muted rose that layers beautifully over every lip colour to create an instant summer glow.
Tilbury Tip: Looking for a one-and-done lip product that you can apply with your fingers? Try tapping my Beautiful Skin Island Glow Lip + Cheek onto your lips to give your pout a quick and easy summer glow!
A dab of cream blush on the apples of the cheeks is perfect for giving your complexion a healthy-looking, sun-flushed glow. Some of my favourite summer glow secrets of the moment are my Beautiful Skin Island Glow Lip + Cheek tints! The dream-cream formula melts beautifully into the skin, creating a beautiful, summertime tint in your favourite blush shade. Whether you love the tropical, bright-pink glow of Paradise Pink Glow or the moody, sun-kissed glow of Sunset Bronze Glow, choose your cream blush shade and tap it on for natural-looking blushed cheeks with a soft, summer glow!

To get a summer glow from head to toe, use bodycare like body creams, body lotions, and body shimmer to keep the skin on your body looking hydrated and well-nourished. My secret to smoother, firmer-looking skin with a magic glow is Charlotte’s Magic Body Cream! For years, celebrities and stars have been falling in love with Charlotte’s Magic Cream and practically begged me to create a body cream with the same transformative effects. And so, I created this hydrating body cream with ingredients from my original formula including hyaluronic acid to plump and hydrate the appearance of skin; vitamins C and E for a brightening effect; and shea butter to feel soft and nourishing, as well as introducing body-targeting ingredients like Algaktiv™ Uplift to firm, tighten, and lift the look of skin and energising caffeine to help reduce the appearance of cellulite. Applying Charlotte’s Magic Body Cream is perfect for giving your body my famous Tilbury glow, especially during the summer months when you’re showing a little more skin.
Tilbury Tip: To glow like a runway star, smooth Supermodel Body illuminating body shimmer onto your arms, legs, shoulders, and chest to create the ethereal summer glow of supermodel skin.
Want to top up your summer glow on the go, darling? I always carry a face mist in my handbag to give my face a quick spritz of magic moisture. Face mists are perfect for replenishing dehydrated skin and are useful for reinvigorating the look of your complexion. I created Charlotte’s Magic Hydrator Mist as an immediate skin reviver; spray it on between skincare steps as a layer of hydration that helps to supercharge skincare absorption or apply on top of makeup to refresh the look of skin and renew your dewy summer glow.
