Consider this your official warning - the Charlotte Tilbury Black Friday deals are not going to stick around for long. Not that it's much of a surprise, really. Make-up maven Tilbury is well known for her ability to create viral products with A-List celebrities like Kate Moss and Jourdan Dunn vying to lend their name to her eponymous brand. This weekend alone we've seen huge discounts for the Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wands, the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Foundation and the Charlotte Tilbury Setting Spray. Today, we're shining a light on the latest CT cult classic to hit the sales, the [Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder {href='https://www.cultbeauty.co.uk/p/charlotte-tilbury-airbrush-flawless-finish/13322991/?' target='_blank' rel='noreferrer noopener nofollow' class='add-referrer-link'}), an iconic product beloved by beauty editor's and celebrities the world over. But are they worth the hype? Here’s our full review.
What does the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Do?
The Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish powder is described as 'a multi-tasking powder that minimises shine and sets your make up in place.' You can apply atop of foundation to keep skin looking hydrated (there's light-reflecting particles and hyaluronic acid in there) while keeping excess oil at bay. There's glow, yes, but none of the excess oil - especially around the t-zone. It's clever stuff.

Charlotte has applied this powder to the faces of A-Listers including Bella Hadid and Kate Moss thanks to its smoothing, blurring prowess. If it's good enough for a supermodel? It's good enough for us.
Pros
- Long lasting
- A little goes a long way
Cons
- Packaging starts off feeling luxe but then will peel and flake
How to use the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder
It couldn't be more simple to apply. I like to use a fluffy brush to glide the powder onto my skin - less is more initially. I focus on areas prone to excess oil, like the t-zone to set make-up in place. I'll also apply a small dusting under the eye area to keep my concealer from creasing before following with a light misting of the Charlotte Tilbury Setting Spray.
Our review
Rachael Martin beauty editor:
'At this point it's genuinely difficult for me to find a Charlotte Tilbury product that I don't love. This one is a dream for those with oily, combination skin types in particular. Just a sweep works hard to balance the skin thanks to the infusion of nourishing rose wax and almond oil. These work together with the mattifying pigments to create glow - but in all the right places. The staying power is great, but I do benefit from a top up around the sides of my nose around 4pm. Then, my make-up will sit beautifully right through to cocktail hour. My only gripe? Charlotte Tilbury's packaging. It fades and flakes fast, meaning you'll loose the luxe feeling quickly. But perhaps this is a small price to pay for beautiful make-up? I certainly think so.'
Final Verdict
'Is the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder worth it? In my opinion, yes. This powder does what it says on the tin - keeps make-up sitting pretty from dusk 'till dawn, minimises pores and illuminates skin. Would recommend.'
