Isn’t it funny… we put all this effort into glamming ourselves up with makeup only in an effort to look like we “woke up like this”? Or, better yet, to look like we aren’t wearing makeup at all? Come to find out it can be harder to achieve if you aren’t a celebrity MUA dolling up your clients. So, how do you get the look then? It turns out it’s all about getting your face to GLOW. Today I’m sharing all my favorite Charlotte Tilbury makeup favs for the “No Makeup” look. One key product I can’t live without? The Hollywood Flawless Filter – hands down.
For the past few years, I’ve been hooked on Charlotte Tilbury beauty products. From the cream eyeshadow pots (have them in several colors) to the bronzer/highlighter duo – the more I try, the more I love. So, today I’m sharing my most frequently used items from her makeup line to create that “no makeup” makeup look you can wear everyday. Plus, you know it’s good when your makeup artist best friend becomes obsessed too! All that said, I do absolutely love the skincare collection as well. I’ve raved about the Magic Cream time and time again, including here. But, I’ll save that for another post. Keep reading for all my favs.

Charlotte Tilbury Makeup Favs For The “No Makeup” Look
So, just like anybody my makeup routine changes throughout the year. I might change up my shade of lipstick or my lipgloss daily. And, I regularly rotate my shade of blush depending on where I’m going. But, there are some products I use day in and day out, no matter what. Since I’ve started using Charlotte Tilbury makeup, I can easily get that “no makeup” makeup look. I’m using products that highlight my features, but also make me look my most natural. So, I swear by all of these!
My Most Frequently Used Charlotte Tilbury Makeup Products
Just a quick note that you don’t need ALL of these to create that “no makeup” look. For that I would recommend the Flawless Filter, Cream Shadow in Jean, Cheek to Chic blush in Love Glow, Filmstar Bronze and Glow and the Legendary Lashes mascara. Of course, you can substitute some of these items.
Cream Eyeshadow Eyes to Mesmerise
One of my absolute FAVS (which is why it’s first)! I use these little eye shadow pots in two main colors – Jean (which is a champagne nude) and Marie Antoniette (which is more of a light taupe). You can wear them as a base or on their own. I normally blend one of the two below palettes on top.
Cheek to Chic Blush
Another HUGE fav – these blushes are life! Pillow talk is my go-to shade right now. But, First Love has been my most frequently used shade over time. It’s softer and has a more natural look while Pillow Talk is more pink, as if you just pinched your cheeks. Both are incredible and get lots of use.
Eye Shadow Palettes
One of the keys to a great “no makeup” makeup look is subtle eye contour. Honestly, it’s probably where my hand is heaviest since I like a little color. Daytime smokey eye?! Why not!? But, both the Pillow Talk and Exxager-Eyes luxury palettes are perfect for just a hint of color that’s more buildable when you want it (i.e. they’re perfect for wedding guest looks!).
Filmstar Bronze and Glow
Combined with the cream shadow above, this bronzer is a holy grail product for me. I would never say I contour, but this does add a little depth to your cheek bone. In the shade Light to Medium, it also has a really pretty highlighter that I’ve been using in place of the wand I’m including below. Charlotte creates products that give you a flawless complexion with a dewy look, otherwise known as the Tilbury effect! Even on days where my skin is far from perfect, Charlotte Tilbury products like this one hide imperfections and give you confidence in your skin.
Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder
While I love this finishing powder, it’s definitely on the nice to have list. There are days I just entirely forget to put this on and it’s fine. But, it does have a beautiful mattifying effect to tame some of the glow you’ll get with the other products.
Legendary Lashes Mascara
GAH! I love this mascara more than any other I’ve tried before. There was a formula change at one time (and I did prefer the original), but this mascara is something I keep on hand at all times. It makes your eyes pop! It’s heavily pigmented, so it gives them a real true black color. But, just know that all that pigment can run just a bit. So, I only use it on my top lashes.
Hollywood Flawless Filter
Otherwise known as the ALLOVER GLOW! When I originally bought this product, I was not a fan. I gave them away! Come to find out – I just bought two shades that were too light for me. I’m now using shade 3 and instead of using it solely as a highlighter, I put it all over my face as a primer. A lot of times on the weekend, I only use this product (no foundation). This product alone is critical to that “no makeup” makeup look. It leaves your skin dewy and with a glow, but very natural.
Lightgasm Face Palette
This easy palette has a bronzer, blush, highlighter and all over glow in one. So, I’m including it here because it’s an easy way to get that “no makeup” makeup look without buying everything I’ve listed here. But, I normally stick to the other products because I just like the shades more. That said – this is a grab and go solution if you’re only taking one item with you.
Lip Cheat in Iconic Nude
If I remember correctly, this was one of the first Charlotte Tilbury makeup products I tried! This nude shade is a great match for my skin tone. Being just one shade darker, it blends really easily with my lipsticks and glosses for a natural pout.
Beauty Light Wand Highlighter
Another crucial part of creating the “no makeup” makeup look is your highlighter. Remember, it’s all about that glow. This little tube packs a punch and lasts forever! With this Charlotte Tilbury product, a little bit goes a loooong way. I dab this right at the top of my cheek bone, down my nose, and on the top part of my lip. I used this everyday until I bought the Filmstar Bronze and Glow palette, which is now my daily go-to.
Matte Revolution Lipstick
If we’re keeping it real, I’m a gloss or lip balm kinda girl. But, when I want a full lippie, I’ll reach for one of these. Of course, the Matte Revolution lipstick in Pillow Talk is right at the top. The iconic pink-nude shade is universally flattering, especially since a medium intensity version has also been released. Of course, when one sells every two minutes it sort of speaks for itself! But, I also have the shade Very Victoria and it’s actually my fav shade. Inspired by Victoria Beckham, it’s more of a taupe-nude – perfect for that “no makeup” makeup look.
That’s it! I’ve linked all my favorite Charlotte Tilbury products through their site. But, you can also get them at Sephora (and they’re great to buy during their sales) or Nordstrom. If you have any questions, just leave a comment below or DM me on Instagram!
