Details: - A complexion booster that blurs, smooths, and illuminates for a real-life filter effect. - Can be used 4 ways - alone, under foundation, mixed with foundation, used on top of foundation. Key Ingredients - Finely Milled Powders: Blur lines and pores for a smoother, soft-focus look. - Porcelain Flower Extract: A Thai flower derivative that brightens and moisturizes skin. - Glossy Oil: A lightweight moisturizing oil that reflects and adds light where you need it.

My thoughts: I tried this product several different ways and found that utilizing this under my foundation or mixed with my foundation produced the look I enjoyed the most. I did try using the product without foundation, applied like a foundation and it was not a good look (I was glowing like Christmas lights under the snow!) I also used as a highlight after foundation and loved the radiant finish it provided. I found that applying the product with a makeup sponge allowed for an even application. I did not like the concentration of the product applied with the doe foot applicator (I would actually prefer a different packaging). While I do not like the packaging it did not interfere with my use of the product. The luminosity of the formula is beautiful. I did not find the product greasy, glittery or irritating on my skin. I was actually pleasantly surprised at how soft my skin felt after application (a flexible/natural feel on the skin). I did wear test the formula and it’s glow lasted through a 9 hour work day with no issues. Bottom Line: Yes this is retails for $59. Yes I felt like a beautiful glowy princess wearing the Hollywood Flawless Filter (checkout the before and after and give me your thoughts!!!) I love the way this product enhances my makeup and will definitely be wearing to holiday events.

“Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter is a standout product that combines the benefits of a primer, highlighter, and light foundation all in one. In the shade 2 Fair, it provides a beautiful, natural glow that complements lighter skin tones without being too overwhelming or glittery. The texture is lightweight and smooth, making it easy to apply and blend seamlessly into the skin. I love how versatile this product is — you can use it under foundation for a subtle radiance, mix it with your foundation for a dewy finish, or apply it on top of your makeup as a highlighter for added luminosity. The coverage is sheer, so it’s perfect for those days when you want to even out your complexion without the heaviness of full foundation. It blurs imperfections, giving ... More“Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter is a standout product that combines the benefits of a primer, highlighter, and light foundation all in one.

The coverage is sheer, so it’s perfect for those days when you want to even out your complexion without the heaviness of full foundation. It blurs imperfections, giving the skin a soft-focus effect, while adding a gorgeous, lit-from-within glow. The doe-foot applicator makes it easy to apply the product exactly where you want it, and a little goes a long way, so even the smaller size lasts a surprisingly long time. For me, shade 2 Fair is ideal for a subtle enhancement, especially on light to medium skin tones. It doesn’t settle into fine lines, which is a big plus, and it works beautifully on both dry and combination skin. However, if you have very oily skin, you might want to be careful with how much you apply, as it can add extra shine. Overall, the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter is a must-have for anyone looking for that perfect, glowing finish. It’s a game-changer in achieving radiant, healthy-looking skin, and the 0.18 FL Oz size is perfect for on-the-go touch-ups or travel.” they have a very nice packaging and very comfortable. 

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS I was super influenced on this one and really glad I was! I find this to be pretty affordable compared to the other foundation products I use (I know- technically not a foundation, but I’m using it partly as one) and it met my expectations based on the hype. I’m very fair but use self tanner. I purchased a full size of the lightest shade (fair 1 neutral) and then a smaller size of the next lightest shade (fair 2 peachy beige) to play around with for different seasons. I love the finish and as someone who doesn’t like a lot of coverage I can wear this alone / without other foundation for everyday dressed-down no makeup looks. It is as dewy as everyone says so if you want to avoid looking.. moist? lol then it’s not for you. On my dry skin, it makes ... MoreOVERALL IMPRESSIONS I was super influenced on this one and really glad I was!

It’s worth noting for fair girlies that this product leans yellow. I have pink / cool undertones, but neutrals usually work for me. In most makeup lines I just wear the lightest shade they have and it’s the closest match. In this case, even the fairest shade 1 neutral leaned a bit too warm / yellow for my liking, and slightly darker than I had hoped. Shade 2 is also more warm / yellow but that is to be expected for a “peach” named hue. I will be using that as a base for contour and for mixing when I have a tan. Shade 1 works for me when I have faux tan on and if I mix it with other makeup as intended with or without a tan. But I can’t wear it solo when I’m not rocking a tan, it would look weird. PACKAGING Everyone mentions the letters coming off the bottle. I haven’t used it long enough to encounter that, but I am not docking points because I honestly wouldn’t mind having a brand free bottle in my lineup, and I think for the price point to product quality ratio it is forgivable. I find CT products all kind of look a little like something off my grandmother’s vanity, but I think it adds to their charm in a weird way. Hope this helps!

I received this complimentary from Influenster and CharlotteTilbury in exchange for my honest review. The Hollywood Flawless filter is a complexion booster, sort of a cross between makeup and skincare product, in theory. The claim is it “blurs, smooths, and illuminates for a real-life filter effect. Customize your glow with four ways to apply.” You can wear this alone, under your makeup, mixed with your foundation, or as a highlighter of sorts. It has a very light coverage and comes in a dozen shades, in a beautiful glass bottle, with a doe foot applicator. I’ve tried using this several ways, and while I can attest to it giving a very radiant, illuminated finish my fall down is I’m not seeing the blurring or smoothing here. In fact very much the opposite. For the ... MoreI received this complimentary from Influenster and CharlotteTilbury in exchange for my honest review.

In fact very much the opposite. For the first 5 minutes or so it looks nice enough, but as the clock tiks, this highlights my pores, making them look larger and more obvious, it makes every scar, line wrinkle jump off of my face into clear view. Especially when I wear it without a foundation over it. Under my foundation, well, it just doesn’t seem to do much of anything honestly. I’m not sure if this is just designed to work only on skin that is already flawless? But on mature skin, nope. This just makes my skin look worse than it did before I applied it so I’ll be skipping this one going forward as it just isn’t worth the $49 price tag, I mean it isn’t worth any price in my opinion. So bummed, I had high hopes after seeing so many people rave about it online. My guess is they have great skin already, are young, (in both cases they then really do not need a product like this 🤷🏻‍♀️) or just want to make CT happy and get PR?

I would like to thank Charlotte Tilbury and Influenster for allowing me to take part in this incentivized campaign in return for an honest review here are my thoughts: When I first received this product I did not know what to expect how would it perform: would it perform like illuminizer, would it perform like a foundation, possibly both!?!? So I began to do my research and Charlotte says that this product could be used for different ways. So I set out on trying to utilize this product in all four different ways alone under makeup over makeup on the high points of the face and finally mixed with Foundation. I'm in the process of filming the process of designing different makeups based on the four different styles of makeup. When you place Flawless Filter on the high ... MoreI would like to thank Charlotte Tilbury and Influenster for allowing me to take part in this incentivized campaign in return for an honest review here are my thoughts: When I first received this product I did not know what to expect how would it perform: would it perform like illuminizer, would it perform like a foundation, possibly both!?!? So I began to do my research and Charlotte says that this product could be used for different ways. So I set out on trying to utilize this product in all four different ways alone under makeup over makeup on the high points of the face and finally mixed with Foundation. I'm in the process of filming the process of designing different makeups based on the four different styles of makeup. When you place Flawless Filter on the high points of the face I will really want to mattify the complexion to give a contrast between the two different finishes to really showcase the radiant glow Wearing it alone how to perfect the skin in such a way that you can wear this all by itself. Subtle highlight and contour in places and then using this product to bring all of those places into harmony and the most beautiful fashion. Key here is not using too much otherwise your going to give Tin Man, your going to be looking "Metallica"! Under Foundation the undertone of this formula is a bit sweeter than mine a bit more red this allows me to utilize this in a color correcting fashion for subtle ashy places on the skin. And some point today I'm going through my kit and trying to select my most matte foundation to mix the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless filter into so that we can achieve a porcelain doll effect where the skin is matte but you see the light reflecting from underneath of the skin. I am loving this product as a color corrector as something to give a little bit of warmth especially if ever your concealer goes a bit ashy, this is wonderful to give your face Radiance and realness. Sometimes when a face is too matte it does not look real! But when light from it is reflected subtly off the skin it looks real provided your layers are not too thick. I have used this product with moisturizer with airbrush thinner through an airbrush. As a person with a red to red orange undertone this is works naturally without adjustment!!!

Okay

I wanted to try this product as it is highly hyped on tiktok and by many people. I do not really use foundation and have previously only tried the Dior forever glow foundation. This is definitely not a foundation though, which I think is the impression a lot of people have. It is kind of glittery and is more so a highlighter, it does not really cover anything so if that is your goal, you definitely can not use this on its own. I tried it on my skin and you could see redness or anything I wanted to cover but looking more glittery… Something I do not like is that it is very shiny and shimmery/glittery as compared to glowy.This is good to purchase if you only want to try the product out and do not want to commit to and waste a full size version.

My skin is combination so it already has a natural shine and this product does not look good on me. The shade was also a bit too yellow for me. Also, I was kind of surprised by how small the product actually is, but it is really good for travel for sure! But, if you were to use this every day all over your face, it would run out very soon. That being said, I only used this product on some parts of my forehead and cheeks, I have not tried it all over my face or with a foundation so I cannot comment on that.

TOO expensive, crease-central

The only reason Im giving such a low rating is because the price is ridiculous. If this product were $30 or less I would give it three or maybe four starts but Im being harsher because of the expectations I had for such a luxury price. I spend an entire giftcard I recieved on this and was expecting to be blown away. I do enjoy the shine it gives, and its light and feels good on the skin. HOWEVER.....This is crease central. I CONSTANTLY have to blot under my eyes every 10 or so minutes because this product creases like nobodys business. I also don't use a lot because it is so shiny so I feel like the product will go bad before I can even use it all. I use it sparingly in areas of my face I want to bring out that inner glow, as a foundation I do not recommend because ... MoreThe only reason Im giving such a low rating is because the price is ridiculous.

I use it sparingly in areas of my face I want to bring out that inner glow, as a foundation I do not recommend because you will look like a greased donut (which looks good for people with perfect skin) but for those of us with large pores, acne spots, perhaps some imperfections, it highlights those way too much. Also this product is very sheer so I would not recommend it anyway as a foundation for that reason. If you have the money, perfect skin, and enjoy a glowy look this is for you, but for anyone esle who has greasy skin, imperfections, sweats easily, prefers a matted look, wants full coverage, has smile lines or wrinkles, just a forewaring youre gonne have to carry around a beauty blender all day. I still use this product because Im not wasting it, but I will never buy this again.
