It shares the power of beauty with the world by combining all the DNA of beauty in a range of beauty products.
In September 2013, professional make-up artist Charlotte founded her eponymous cosmetics brand, Charlotte Tilbury. She came from an artistic family in London and lived with her parents in Ibiza, Spain as a child. Raised by artist parents, she was always passionate about beauty and had her own unique perspective.
