In an exaggerated V-shape, on the outer corner of your eyelid, blend the beautiful burgundy ENHANCE shade upwards into the crease. Swipe along the upper and lower lash line for added intensity.

To add even more depth and definition to your look, layer the plum SMOKE shade on the outer corner, throughout the crease, and along the upper and lower lash-line.

Using your finger, dip into the enchanting POP shade, peach-toned gold glitter, and tap onto your lid. Apply just to the center or all over the lid for an extraordinary sparkle to really make you stand out from the crowd.

A soft chocolate brown eyeliner adds the perfect definition to enhance your eyes in seconds. Glide Charlotte’s Rock ‘n’ Kohl Eyeliner in Barbarella Brown from the inner corner of your upper eyelid, getting as close to the lash-line as you can, to the outer corner. Flick the pencil outwards and upwards for a fabulous feline flick!

Curl your lashes and apply lashings and lashings of Full Fat Lashes Mascara in Glossy Black to your top and bottom lashes. The fine-tipped bristles catch even the tiniest of lashes to curl, separate, lengthen and volumize! Instant drama in one coat! Apply an extra coat for added intensity.

Create an absolutely irresistible and kissable pout with three of Charlotte’s lip icons. Line and define your lips with Lip Cheat Lip Liner in Walk of No Shame, a modern, dark-rose shade that pairs perfectly with the berry-rose matte lipstick, Matte Revolution Lipstick in Walk of No Shame. Plump up your sultry, seductive look with Lip Lustre Lip Gloss in Unleash Me for a gorgeous, sheer plum lip lacquered finish.

Tilbury Tip: For deeper complexions, Charlotte recommends Lip Cheat Lip Liner in Savage Rose, a rosy-red shade, and K.I.S.S.I.N.G Lipstick in Night Crimson, a deep plum lipstick, to add instant glamour.

Finishing off your look with blusher is the ultimate final step, start with a small amount and build up the pigment as you go so you can see exactly how much color you need. Charlotte’s Cheek to Chic Blusher in Love is the Drug adds a youthful glow of cool-toned shimmering pink to your complexion.

To apply: SWISH your brush around the outer shade and tap off any excess product. Blend the brush up the cheek, starting at the apples towards the top of your cheekbones. Then POP your brush directly into the middle shade, using the tip of your brush tap off the excess again, and apply just to the apples of your cheeks to make them pop and glow! Blend both shades together for a seamless flush of color.
