With the festive fiestas ahead of us, a beauty look that fits every event you attend is all you need to complete the fashionable package. Well, we won’t take long before we take you step-by-step through a Charlotte Tilbury makeup look that we fell in love with while scrolling through Instagram. Let’s get started!

Your makeup’s base is everything! It can actually make or break the look, and to avoid the second option, you need a good concealer to start hiding imperfections. We absolutely love Tarte Cosmetics Creaseless Concealer, which delivers a full coverage with a natural, radiant finish. Apply it on your problem areas and move on to the next step – the whole face. You need to unify the tone of your complexion and this year, Hermès got us covered with its new, lightweight Baume de Teint that perfectly does that while revealing the beauty of the skin. Believe us, you don’t need more than that to create the perfect base!

For the eyebrows, Benefit CosmeticsPrecisely, My Brow pencil remains our favorite choice to draw incredibly natural-looking, hair-like strokes that last up to 12 hours to fill and define them. And to set them, Dior’s DIORSHOW ON SET BROW brow mascara creates an undeniably wonderful volume with a natural finish, as it keeps them in place for 24 hours thanks to its waterproof formula.

With this look, you don’t need a lot of effort with eyeshadow application and there is no easier way to do so than with CHANEL’s Les Beiges Healthy Glow Natural Eyeshadow Palette especially designed for easy neutral toned looks and offering 5 shades that range from soft to intense and from matte to shimmery. Choose the perfect shade and apply it all over the lid. And to go the extra mile, you can create some dimension by using the slightly darker hue on the crease. Easy, right? Well, now is the big achievement: a perfect cat eyeliner made easier with Tom Ford Beauty’s Eye Defining Pen. Dual-ended, it delivers ultimate precision and makes fluid strokes easy to achieve. For the water line and lower lash line, Lancôme’s Le Stylo Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil is the perfect choice thanks to its creamy, waterproof formula that allows seamless application. Apply it and use the built-in smudger to blend and smudge for a more natural look. Finish off your eyes with a few coats of mascara and for this step, we would definitely go for YSL Beauty’s Curler Mascara, which, thanks to its hybrid brush, gives you dramatically curled and defined lashes while lengthening them and giving them volume.

Moving to the cheeks, Charlotte Tilbury’s new Pillow Talk Beautifying Face Palette is indeed a beauty marvel that has it all. With 4 BLUSH + GLOW shades for the cheeks and the face, you can add liveliness to your cheeks with the blush and illuminate your face with strokes of highlighter applied on the areas that are usually hit by the light.

The best way to complete this look is with a perfect nude shade applied on the lips and there’s no way you wouldn’t fall for Gucci’s Rouge à Lèvres Satin lipstick in 200 Blaze of Noon, which brings together long-lasting finish, lightness and moisture to create the most comfortable wear in a swooning shade.

To keep the look in place and make it long-lasting, let us open your eyes on our ultimate favorite: M.A.C CosmeticsPREP + PRIME FIX+. Besides fixing your makeup, it gently soothes and refreshes your skin. Just perfect!
