If you aren’t obsessed with Charlotte Tilbury, I only have one question for you: Why not? I suppose I can give you the benefit of the doubt by assuming that you just haven’t been able to get your hands on any of the products yet. They are so good that they do sell out quite often, but if that’s not the case and you’ve had a perfectly stocked local Sephora, we need to talk about it.

The Charlotte Tilbury Contour Wand and Beauty Light Wand have completely swept the internet over the last few years, but those aren’t the only products that we consider to be totally precious in our collection. Whether you are no stranger to the brand or you are a total CT newbie, here are 10 products that we consider to be the very best:
I bought the sample size after watching all of the TikTok reviews of this product, and I was immediately sold after one use. You can use it as a primer for foundation or on its own, and both options leave your skin glowing and definitely give the “flawless filter” look. I’m always impressed with how much better my makeup looks since I’ve added this product to my makeup routine, and I get so many compliments every time I use it.

I’ll never stop raving about this primer! I feel like I can wear minimal makeup because the primer leaves such a flawless finish and subtle shimmer to my face. I also love how lightweight the formula is. It makes my skin feel hydrated all day long. You definitely get a bang for your buck with this primer, as a little product goes such a long way.

I got this foundation literally the second it launched, and I really think it is my favorite foundation I’ve ever used. I have extremely dry skin, and nothing has ever made it look so good. Most products look good at first, then within a couple of hours, they look dry on me, but this one stays dewy without being greasy—it literally just looks like healthy, beautiful skin. The most telling thing to me is the products I reach for when I really need to look good, and this foundation has become that. There was quite a lot of heated debate on TikTok between this and the new NARS foundation, but I strongly disagree with the consensus that the NARS was better. This foundation is an absolute dream for dry skin and has become my holy grail. I don’t think I’ll ever go without this in my makeup bag.

This is my new favorite finishing powder. I finish my makeup by applying it to my T-zone where I find I get the most oily throughout the day. It gives my skin a smooth and bright appearance without being too heavy and making me look like I’m wearing a lot of powder. I love the blurring effect it has on my pores and blemishes, making them basically invisible.

You might think that a bronzer is just a bronzer upon first glance. As long as the shade's right and it doesn't look like your face is dirty, you're good to go. I thought the same until this fell in my lap, and now, I simply cannot find joy with any other. This bronzer is the same exact formula as the famed Flawless Finish powder (the one above that Keely raved about), so it glides on your skin and blends like nothing I've ever used before. It makes my skin look glowy with a little extra color and basically no effort.

I could take or leave the Hollywood Contour wand, but I go absolutely wild for the Beauty Light Wand in the shade Pinkgasm—it’s one of my favorite cream blushes in the game. The application is so creamy and luxe, and I love how seamlessly it blends. The color is absolutely to die for, and if you love a dewey, highlighted blush look, you need to get your hands on this when it's in stock (trust me, it sells out fast).

As far as powder blushes go, this might be the best I’ve ever tried—ever. I love the subtle hint of shimmer that makes my skin look so glowy—no highlighter needed. I have Pillow Talk (obviously), and it somehow pairs beautifully well with my skin in the summer and the winter when my skin tone is quite a few shades different. You never have to worry about using too much, but you also don’t have to work too hard to get it to show up on your skin. Truly, it’s the Goldilocks of blushes, and I’m obsessed.

I am not someone who goes particularly wild in the eyeshadow department, so a quad often attracts me more than a full palette does (and is especially nice for travel, which I’m planning on doing a lot of this year). This one is full of shades of rose, which can sound like it will make you look like you have pink eye, but it literally does the exact opposite. Every time I do my eyeshadow, I use this, and the result is an elevated, cohesive eye look that makes my green eyes absolutely pop like nothing else does. I’m no eyeshadow expert, but this is easy to use and makes it look like you’re an eye-makeup master with little to no effort. The quality of these eyeshadows is the best I’ve ever used.

Name a more iconic lipstick. I’ll wait. I picked this up when it got a ton of hype a few years ago (I swear, everyone was recommending this shade), but as soon as I swiped it on my lips for the first time, I understood why everyone was losing their minds over it. It’s matte yet moisturizing, and it looks so good on all of my friends no matter their skin tone. It’s become my go-to purse lipstick and always comes through when I’m in a pinch.

There is a reason this is everyone and their mother’s holy grail lip liner. It is the perfect neutral shade to pair with just about any lipstick you choose (I’m partial to Walk of No Shame) and even looks good on its own with a sheer lip gloss. If you need a lip liner that you can reach for seven days a week without a second thought, this is the one you need in your makeup bag.
