STEP 1: APPLY AN ENERGIZING CAFFEINE EYE SERUM
Before applying makeup for tired eyes, use Charlotte’s Cryo-Recovery Eye Serum as an ENERGIZING ALARM CLOCK for your eye area! Inspired by ice-powered cryotherapy, this caffeine-infused eye serum helps to depuff the appearance of the area around the eyes while providing a cooling sensation that’s designed to make you look and feel instantly more awake!
Charlotte’s eye serum has a cooling metal tip that glides effortlessly across the skin, massaging the ICEAWAKE™*, REPLEXIUM™**, caffeine complex and SWISS ICE WINE ESSENCE infused formula onto the eye area to help create a beautiful, brighter-looking finish that’s ready for makeup!
Tilbury Tip: Keep Cryo-Recovery Eye Serum refrigerated for an extra-cooling effect!
STEP 2: DEFINE THE EYES WITH NAVY EYELINER
Charlotte designed her Sleep Cheat Liner Duo to help tired-looking eyes appear WIDE AWAKE! The eyeliner duo features a midnight navy shade that’s perfect for adding definition to the lash line, helping to contour the shape of your eyes to cheat a more lifted look. Glide it along the eyelid to create a lift-effect liner, and underneath the waterline for an eye-opening effect that’s like an OPTICAL ILLUSION! The gel-like formula is like beauty sleep, BOTTLED!
STEP 3: GLIDE A BRIGHTENING NUDE EYELINER THROUGH THE WATERLINE
A brightening eyeliner is an essential step in Charlotte’s makeup for tired eyes routine. Gliding the peachy nude shade from Sleep Cheat Liner Duo through the waterline creates the illusion of bigger, brighter-looking eyes that have had a FULL NIGHT’S SLEEP! Use it alongside the navy shade for a graphic, eye-opening effect that helps you look more awake!
STEP 4: APPLY SOFT, NEUTRAL EYESHADOW
A subtle wash of colour through the crease can help the eyes look awake and ready to mesmerise! Charlotte’s Luxury Palette in The Sophisticate is the perfect soft, neutral colour story inspired by one of her 10 iconic looks; start every day by using this eye-enhancing quad to create effortlessly elegant looks that help bring life back to tired eyes.
Following Charlotte’s easy-to-follow PRIME, ENHANCE and SMOKE eye makeup routine, use the shades in The Sophisticate to create a magical matte eyeshadow look. With Charlotte’s Eye Blender Brush, sweep the shades onto the lids to give tired-looking eyes a gorgeous gaze that appears fresh from a restful retreat!
STEP 5: GIVE LASHES LENGTH + VOLUME
Mascara is ESSENTIAL for giving tired-looking eyes a wake-up call! Charlotte’s Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes! Mascara helps lashes look longer and more separated with a 24-hour vertical lift effect! A coat or two of this volumising formula lifts the look of your lashes, helping your eyes to appear more open and awake morning and night while creating the fluttery, fanned-out effect that Charlotte adores.
