Enter: The Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint – a sheer, buildable foundation that combines our favourite elements of the Tilbury icons we all know and love.
It’s the glow of Hollywood Flawless Filter with the blurring powers of Airbrush Flawless and the skin-loving ingredients of Beautiful Skin, all rolled into one convenient, balm-like stick.
Anusha wears shade ‘11 Tan’
Brand Manager Anusha had nothing but glowing reviews for the Unreal Skin stick: “It felt super lightweight on the skin – I didn’t feel like I had anything on at all,” she tells us.
Anusha, one of the many Charlotte Tilbury fans at MECCA HQ, says she was won over by both the effortless application and the instant glow, declaring it her new ‘no-makeup makeup’ essential: “It’s great for everyday when you’re running out the door and don’t have time for a full face.”
Marie wears shade ‘7 Medium’
Senior Go-To-Market Manager Marie is just starting to dip her toes into the world of skin tints, explaining she’s on the lookout for one that doesn’t make her oily skin “look like I’ve just run a half-marathon.”
When we asked for her thoughts on Unreal Skin, Marie raved about the convenience and the lit-from-within finish.
“The application was super easy and mess-free,” she told us, adding, “It felt lovely and light but still had great coverage and gave an instant glow, which wore well over the day.
“Honestly, this could be an everyday winner!”
Jeremy wears shade ‘4 Fair’
Customer Education Lead Jeremy was quickly impressed by how easy the stick formula was to apply: “It’s dreamy,” he said, adding, “I'm shocked at how thin the texture is for the coverage and glow it was able to provide.”
It's a departure from Jeremy's usual base – “It veers glowier than my personal preference for everyday," he notes, describing the pearlescent finish as “beautiful” and something he’ll reach for as a radiance booster when he wants to look “awake and rejuvenated”.“I could see myself wearing this strategically on the high points of my face, or even under the eyes to illuminate,” he explains.
