'Charlotte Tilbury's new double-ended lip liner makes my lips look like they have filler'
As Charlotte Tilbury's new Super Nudes collection drops, our Mirror head of beauty puts the standout Lip Cheat Contour Duo to the test– with results that rival lip filler
It's always a good week when Charlotte Tilbury releases a new product, but this week is particularly special because the brand is launching a whole new Super Nudes sculpting system.
Launching online today at Charlottetilbury.com, the range consists of four new launches to sculpt and define the eyes, lips and face in a flash, and join the other existing four products already in the Super Nudes collection. The new launches include: Lip Cheat Contour Duos, £21 each, Big Lip Plumpgasm lip gloss in Nudegasm Diamonds, £27, a Shapewear Brush, £28, and Glowgasm Face Palette in Nudegasm, £60 (a returning favourite).
While all four products are on track for viral success, the real standout of the range, according to Zoe, is the Lip Cheat Contour Duo pencils. Priced at £21 each and available in four shades to suit all skin tones – Light, Medium, Tan and Deep. Here's what she thought of the pencils when she tested them out this week...
Charlotte Tilbury Super Nudes Lip Cheat Contour Duos review
Zoe says: "Remember when everyone suddenly became obsessed with lip liner? We've got Charlotte Tilbury to thank for that – her original Lip Cheat put precision pouts on the map over a decade ago. Fast forward to now, and she's back at it with the brand new Lip Cheat Contour Duo - a genius double-ended pencil that's basically your shortcut to a fuller-looking pout (no needles required).
"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!"
Inspired by 90s supermodel nudes, the range features four dreamy neutral duos - think flattering pinks, earthy taupes and rich browns, all carefully crafted by Charlotte herself to flatter a wide range of skin tones. To really boost the volume, you can use the new Plumpgasm lip gloss in Nudegasm Diamonds to add extra 3D definition, which Zoe is wearing alongside the lip liner shade shade Light in her after photo.
Elsewhere, if lip plumping products are on your May wishlist, the new Morphe Hot Honey's Plumping Lip Oil is online now and exclusive to ASOS. A plumping lip oil with a hydrating formula is infused with manuka honey and chilli extract to give the ultimate plump, they're now shoppable for £11.20. REFY's Lip Buff lip serum and plumpe r, £16, is also a favourite of ours.
The Charlotte Tilbury Super Nudes new additions
Alongside the standout Lip Cheat Contour Duos, you'll also find the Big Lip Plumpgasm lip gloss in Nudegasm Diamonds, £27. This plumping gloss, which first launched last March, just got a nude makeover—and we're predicting it's going to be a hit. This clear champagne-nude gloss infused with light-catching crystal glow pigments adds instant dimension and shine.
It layers perfectly over liner for a fuller, 3D pout in seconds, and the formula is the same juicy, plumping hybrid as the cult-favourite Pillow Talk Big Lip Plumpgasm - think ultra-glossy finish with the comfort of a lip oil, plus long-term smoothing and plumping benefits the more you wear it.
There's also a Glowgasm Face Palette in Nudegasm, £60 - your shortcut to a lit-from-within look. With a mix of smoothing, illuminating nude tones and a blush-glow pop, this universally flattering palette acts like a face-lift filter, reshaping and defining the face with soft-focus dimension. It pairs perfectly with her viral Hollywood Contour Wand (which now comes in five new shades).
Finally, starting today, you can get your hands on a new Shapewear Brush, £28, which aims to bring Charlotte's 30+ years of red carpet contouring expertise straight to your make-up bag. This clever 2-in-1 tool features an angled brush for shaping and defining, plus a tapered, fluffy end that fits perfectly into those trickier areas (like the sides of your nose or under your cheekbones) for seamless blending. Whether you're sculpting, highlighting, or micro-contouring, it's designed to deliver a smooth, undetectable finish.
The new Super Nudes launches on Charlottetilbury.com today, as well as from Sephora.

Scott Mills' big admission about his finances after bagging £450k Radio 2 job
Radio DJ Scott Mills revealed he has 'made it' after he took over the BBC Radio 2 breakfast show after previously 'risking' his health from working too much over two decades Scott Mills has revealed he is finally 'financially secure' and has 'made it' after he took over the BBC Radio 2 breakfast show after Zoe Ball left the post. Scott, 51, took over the position in January from Zoe, who left to focus on her family. Opening up about his career and his new ability to say 'no' to work, after missing sleep for jobs, Scott told The Telegraph: 'For the first time, I really do believe in myself. You have to look at the facts. They've put you on the breakfast show, you must be doing something right.' It comes after he admitted to taking on 'too much' work, sometimes at a 'risk' to his own health. Reflecting on his jam-packed career, Scott said: 'I was working way too much, because my mindset was that you don't know when it might end. There was one freshers' week where my schedule for playing in student unions was: Monday: Aberdeen, Tuesday: Glasgow, Wednesday: Edinburgh.' While Scott said he 'enjoyed' taking every opportunit y he got for two decades, 'life is different now' and he 'doesn't want to' do that anymore. Last month, Scott opened up to the Mirror about the hard work that goes into the show and that Zoe gave him a warning when he took over the job, but he still describes it as his 'happy place'. He said: 'The show is a lot, it's hard work. It's a treadmill every day. I remember when Zoe finished, she said to me: 'Look, doing breakfast on Radio 2 is quite a lot. It's quite demanding, and you've just always got to be on." He added: "She was right. The amount of guests we have - it's continuous. When she said it to me, I was like: 'I'm ready'. And I am, it's my happy place." The Mail previously reported that Scott took a small pay rise for presenting the show, however, it was significantly less than his predecessor, Zoe. While it is reported that Scott is earning approximately £450,000 a year, Zoe was reportedly on £950,000. Zoe confirmed her departure from the early morning slot back in November, telling listeners it was 'time to start a new chapter' before she left in January. However, that wasn't the end of her journey on the radio. On air, she told her listeners: "After six years of fun times alongside you all on the Breakfast Show, I've decided it's time to step away from the early alarm call and start a new chapter'. She added: "I just want to say I'm so grateful to my incredible boss ladies... they have always been so supportive of me, especially in this job and particularly this year." Just months after her final Breakfast Show, Zoe has already returned to the Radio 2 line-up with a brand new Saturday afternoon show. The new programme launched on May 3 and will continue to air weekly. According to Radio 2 bosses, it will deliver "the best songs and chat for a Saturday". Zoe herself says listeners can expect "lots of laughs" and upbeat favourites.

How to get £204 worth of summer holiday beauty products for just £65 - but you better be quick!
Drum roll! Introducing our Summer Beauty Box: seven premium products from the most-wanted luxury brands including Charlotte Tilbury, Chantecaille and Tatcha. Worth £204, it's available to YOU readers for a sunny £65. We've handpicked the hero products to help you breeze through the holiday season. To keep lips plump and hydrated, Charlotte Tilbury Collagen Lip Bath in Pillow Talk Medium contains marine collagen and vitamin A to nourish every skin tone and leave you with a healthy gloss. Luxury brand Chantecaille hand-harvests rose de mai petals in the south of France to create its Pure Rosewater, a hydrating mist that dries without any residue. Delicately scented, it's a tall glass of water for your skin. Tatcha's skin barrier-strengthening Hinoki Body Milk is a lightweight lotion with a forest bathing-inspired scent that's clinically proven to reduce your stress levels. Plus it's full size, and usually has an RRP of £50. No summer beauty box would be complete without SPF. Supergoop! Mineral Sheer Screen SPF 30 contains softening aloe and squalane alongside bush clover extract to minimise signs of ageing and is suitable for all skin types. And don't forget something to remove that SPF at the end of the day. Oskia Perfect Cleanser is a nourishing balm with jojoba and rosehip-seed oils plus calming vitamin E. It restores moisture levels before emulsifying into a light milk in water. Protect your hair from UV rays, sea water and chlorine with Philip Kingsley's legendary Swimcap, a water-resistant mask that shields your hair from sun damage or going green in the pool. Sol de Janeiro has exploded in popularity over the past few years, and the scent that started it all was Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist. Notes of pistachio, vanilla, jasmine and sandalwood make this a 'holiday in a bottle' fragrance. If you can't make it to Rio, a quick spritz will do the trick.
