Here’s the lowdown on Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation. I have swatches of all the shades here along with all the details and before and after photos.

How Many Shades of Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation?

So I thought I would cut straight to the chase with the shade chat. Excitingly, there are 44 shades of this new foundation across cool, neutral and warm undertones, so there is pretty much should be something for everyone.

This newbie is an extension of the Flawless line. I absolutely love the Flawless Filter. In fact I actually hoped that was a foundation when it first launched, so this is all my dreams come true – dramatic, I know.

Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation Features

There is A LOT going on with this foundation!!

• Magic Replexium Serum – for younger looking skin (clinial trials saw a reduction in lines & wrinkles by 22% in 8 weeks)
• Aircool technology – for the fresh feel of skin
• C.T. Defence – Charlotte’s own pollution defence complex
• Moss Celltec – delivers intense hydration (clinial trials saw 216% increase in hydration after just one hour)
• 16 hour formula
• Waterproof, sweat-proof, transfer-proof
• Weightless full coverage
• Flawless, poreless, natural matte finish
• Does not require a primer
• 44 skin coded shades in pump bottles

It is such a light formula, and you can stretch the smallest dot of product over your whole face. You can layer for more coverage, but it literally covers everything and still looks like skin. I usually like a glowy foundation but this is so good.

Airbrush Flawless Foundation Magic skincare benefits

• AirCool™ (Questice®) – FRESH FEEL ON SKIN – works effectively to give a long-lasting perception of cooling. It releases menthol on the skin over time to create a non-aggressive cooling sensation
• Moss Cell Tech™ – HYDRATION – First biotechnologically produced moss extract, helps in maintaining hydration levels of the skin

Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation Swatches

Now I worked with wonderful CT makeup arstist Juan, to get these swatches. I managed to get most of them, however, I had a couple of camera issues so it’s not completely perfect. Also there is a tiny bit of duplication that I didn’t notice until I got home. Sorry!

If you already wear a Tilbury foundation, you may find you want to go one darker. I am usually 3, and matched myself to 3 Cool, but Charlotte took a look and thought I’d do better with 4 Neutral. I now have them both and will have a play and decide.

My Review – Before & After

So I am a fan of this foundation. It delivers a natural looking flawlessness with minimal effort and you hardly need any product to cover the whole face. You can adjust the finish by layering. I think it gets more velvet-matte (very natural), the more you use, and I also think it’s looks better on the skin the longer you wear it.

It is very durable and lasts the whole day, even when it’s hot. it stays looking flawless and beautiful. I am extremely impressed.
