Carthen shares fabulous full face routine
Cheekily captioning the video “Pampered & powdered 🎀,” the model sported a classic square-neck black tank with her long, dark tresses pushed behind her. She kicked off the tutorial by applying the brand’s Airbrush Flawless Blur Concealer ($36) to her cheeks, forehead and chin, blending while noting how easily it “melted” into her skin.
Her next step was contour. She used the same concealer, but one that was “a couple shades deeper” than her natural tone. She then showed how she preferred to carve out her face, instructing viewers to place the product just above the natural cheekbones and add a few dabs to her forehead for the ultimate lifted look. “The key is to blend high,” she revealed before exclaiming, “Look how sharp those cheekbones are!”
Her third step was brightening, for which she conversely used the same concealer in a couple of shades lighter than her natural tone. She dotted the creamy product on the corners of her inner and outer eyes, down her nose and on the undersides of her lips for a natural, effervescent effect.
“And now, for the main event,” the star quipped as she set her hard work with Charlotte Tilbury’s new Airbrush Blur Loose Powder, which comes with an adorable heart-shaped powder puff for application. After applying the finely milled powder to set her face, she used the popular “baking” technique under her eyes and jawline. She then used the brand’s beloved Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray ($39) and the Airbrush Flawless Finish ($50) for extra hold before adding plenty of the new Airbrush Flawless Blush Blur in the shade “One Night Only.”
As noted by the brand on Instagram, both the Airbrush Blur Loose Powder and Airbrush Flawless Blush Blur are not yet available; however, they are currently slated to launch on the brand’s website beginning Thursday, Aug. 27—but if you want to get your hands on these beauties early to twin with Carthen, fans in North America can download the official Charlotte Tilbury app for the opportunity to shop the pieces on Tuesday, Aug. 25!
