The makeup artist to the stars is offering 20% off sitewide on full price products, but the discount is only available for a limited time
While we can't always bank on favourable weather for the Bank Holiday, one thing we can count on is our beloved makeup and skincare brands will be offering discounts. Not ones to disappoint, Charlotte Tilbury is spoiling beauty enthusiasts with a site-wide sale, providing shoppers with 20% off their high-quality, Hollywood-adored products.
The sale runs from Wednesday, May 21 to Monday, May 26, and anyone who enters the code MAGICMAY at checkout will receive 20% off any full-priced items. With no minimum spend necessary, it's an ideal chance to snag some celebrity-endorsed cult favourites.
However, when there's a discount on such a vast array of items, it can be challenging to pinpoint exactly which ones are worth purchasing. To simplify matters, we've highlighted four standout products that are not only adored by beauty editors but also sported by A-listers from Zendaya to Sarah Jessica Parker.
Each product is part of the limited-time discount, though it's worth noting that bundles, already discounted items, and a few other exclusions don't qualify.
In other news, Amazon is hosting its inaugural Everyday Essentials Week, featuring seven days of deals on everyday essential items until 23.59pm on Tuesday, May 27. As part of the event, there is up to 40% off beauty, including brands like NIVEA, KIKO and Neutrogena, reports the Manchester Evening News.
For those in need of a new beauty gadget, Foreo is offering an additional 30% off with the code BANKHOLIDAY30 until May 27.
Whether you're in the market for a glowing base, plumper lips, or dewy skin, Charlotte Tilbury is a go-to brand for beauty aficionados eager to replenish their makeup and skincare collection, and these four celebrity-approved favourites are an excellent starting point.
1. Super Nudes Lip Cheat Contour Duo – was £22, now £17.60.
The newest member of the esteemed Lip Cheat line-up, the Super Nudes Lip Cheat Contour Duo, has quickly become a favourite on the red carpet. This dual-ended lip pencil is available in four shades to suit various skin tones, offering two complementary colours: a darker hue for defining and a lighter one for filling, creating that sought-after full-lipped effect.
At the Met Gala earlier this month, White Lotus actress Aimee Lou Wood sported the medium shade, as her makeup artist Shayna Goldberg disclosed. Zendaya opted for the Tan shade at the same event, pairing it with the lustrous Big Lips Plumpgasm.
This clever two-in-one pencil is hailed as a superb substitute for cosmetic procedures, with our own Zoe Cripps remarking that it gave her a 'had filler' appearance. She commented: "On one end, you've got Sculpt - a powdery, deeper-toned shade designed to fake natural-looking shadows and add subtle contour. Flip it over, and there's Fill – a creamier, lighter tone that glides on like a dream to blend seamlessly with the sculpted edges. Together they deliver the easiest, most flattering lip contour of your life. Just look at my before and after– my boyfriend asked me if I'd had lip filler!".
And what's particularly noteworthy is that it was only introduced last month, presenting a splendid chance to economise on one of the brand's freshest innovations, with the promo code slicing £4.40 off the recommended retail price.
2. Beautiful Skin Foundation – was £39, now £31.20
This glow-enhancing foundation has earned its reputation as an essential behind-the-scenes beauty product. Infused with moisturising hyaluronic acid, complexion-brightening rose complex, and offering a smooth, layerable texture, it provides a natural-looking finish that endures for up to 16 hours.
At the previous Met Gala, a star-studded array of celebrities such as Sarah Jessica Parker, Demi Moore, Emily Ratajkowski, Lana Del Rey, Jodie Turner and Rita Ora were seen sporting this nourishing foundation, yet it's not exclusively for high-profile events. The medium-coverage formula, boasting a palette of 30 hues, boasts claims of tripling radiance and doubling the appearance of smoothness and plumpness in skin, leading our specialists to make it a part of their daily routine.
OK's Laura Mulley shared her experience: "I've tested hundreds of foundations in my time, but this is one that I would 100% buy again. Its name is totally accurate; it really does give 'beautiful skin' – even, perfected and radiant in a very natural looking way and, unlike a lot of foundations, it stays looking like this all day long; no creasing or settling into pores."
Head of shopping Zoe is an enthusiast, stating: "I'm obsessed with this. It goes on like a tinted moisturiser but instantly offers coverage comparable to a high-coverage base. It also blends effortlessly over my skin, leaving it soft to the touch and boasting a radiant glow. It required minimal additional application - definitely no powder. If I were to go out, I might set my under-eye area and forehead with a hint of translucent powder, but for a casual day, I'm content with an intense glow."
3. Charlotte's Magic Cream – previously £79, currently £63.20
Referred to as the "magic dew of youth" and "luminosity in a jar", the Magic Cream is Charlotte's backstage go-to for models and celebrities at fashion shows and award ceremonies. Originally mixed backstage by Charlotte herself, the Magic Cream garnered cult status with its transformative formula that immediately revitalises exhausted, parched skin.
Rich in hyaluronic acid, peptides, rosehip oil, vitamins C and E, and other active powerhouse ingredients, it boosts radiance and crafts the ideal base for makeup. Actress Sienna Miller once called it a "big drink for the skin" on social media.
She enthused: "Charlotte's magic cream is a miracle product. I actually remember the days before Charlotte had her brand and she would mix up her magic cream for shoots and stick it on my face, so when this became available to buy, I think a lot of us were very, very excited. It's an amazing product, it feels so good, it smells so good - it's a big drink to the skin and the best prep beneath makeup."
The skincare expert from The Express, Tiffany Lo, is a fan of the cream's 'rich, thick texture' and highlights that she achieves a 'dewy glow' with just a light application of the moisturiser without feeling any 'sticky' after-effect. However, she remarked: "It is a nourishing day cream to use and I prefer using this on cold weather days than in summer because it gives me tiny breakouts on my combination skin when the weather is hot and humid."
4. Beautiful Skin Sun-Kissed Glow Bronzer – was £45, now £36
This creamy bronzer delivers an illuminated glow thanks to its infusion with finely milled pearls, while silky polymers ensure a soft-focus effect for both the face and body. It boasts a formula rich in hyaluronic acid and sunshine provitamin D3, promising to double skin's hydration in just an hour.
Within a day of launching, one sold every 30 seconds, testifying to its massive popularity – it comes in four shades and can be applied to produce a long-lasting result. The cream is available in four shades to match varying skin tones - ranging from fair to deep - and persists up to 16 hours while withstanding sweat and humid environments.
This hybrid cream is enthusiastically supported by hundreds of customers who have awarded the product five stars – describing the texture as 'buttery and buildable'. However, some clients may still prefer a powdered form; an alternative can be found with the Airbrush Bronzer.
Beauty writer Bethan Shufflebotham has expressed her fondness for the item: "This bronzer I absolutely love. It's the first ever cream bronzer from the brand that works to blur, hydrate and bronze all in one. It gives you an instant sun-kissed skin effect which makes it a great product for the summer months, plus it has a mirror in the compact which makes it ideal for holidays or on-the-go. My favourite tip is to apply it to your eyes as a shadow for an effortlessly cohesive look."
