This awards season, Charlotte Tilbury is determined to turn up the star wattage of Hollywood's leading ladies. Through her knowing use of her glow-inducing products, the celebrity makeup artist brings out the unique radiance of every actress. Truly, her looks are stunning.

Below she took us step by step through her process for achieving Emma Robert's Old Hollywood glamor for the Academy Awards. Her artists also worked with Thandie Newton and Kate Hudson for the big night, and they shared their techniques for their red carpet beauty looks too.

1. Charlotte prepped Emma's skin with her new Magical Facial Dry Sheet Mask (coming in March!). This next generation mask instantly hydrates, brightens, smooths wrinkles and evens skin tone.

2. Charlotte applied to Light Wonder Foundation for the perfect glow base and sculpted in killer cheekbones using the easiest contour palette in the world: Filmstar Bronze and Glow .

3. She dripped the highlight shade on the tops of the cheekbones and enhanced Emma's limbs with her

4. For a statement, modern matte lip, Charlotte applied her in Kiss 'N' Tell to exaggerate Emma's natural lip line, and created the ultimate blue-red matte lip with her iconic Matte Revolution lipstick in Red Carpet Red.

5. Charlotte created Emma's bombshell eye by first applying in Bette all over the eyelid up to the socket for a dreamy, bronzy wash of light. She then popped Jean in the inner corners of the eye to make them instantly bigger and brighter.

6. Then she defined the eye with her in Bronzed Garnet to create a soft, seductive feline flick.

7. Charlotte finished the look with Full Fat Lashes mascara just on the top lashes.

Makeup artist Jo Strettell gave the gorgeous Thandie Newton a fun teal eye and a nude lip to go with her funky sequin dress.

1. Jo used the new Instant Magic Facial Dry Sheet Mask (coming in March!) to give the skin instant glow.

2. Magic Cream was then smoothed on to plump out the skin, followed by Wonderglow primer and Magic Foundation for a flawless, poreless complexion.

3. Cheekbones were sculpted in with Charlotte's Filmstar Bronze and Glow. A warm glow was conjured with a swish and pop of Cheek to Chic in The Climax.

4. Brows were lifted with Brow Lift. Eyes to Mesmerise in Cleopatra was washed all over the eyelid, and then taken under the eye along the lash line for a hypnotizing, gilded, majestic gaze.

5. Full Fat Lashes mascara was applied for a full Hollywood flutter!

6. Jo sculpted Thandie's limbs with Supermodel Body that catches the light beautifully.

7. Thandie's lips were lined with Charlotte Tilbury Iconic Nude Lip Cheat Pencil. Charlotte's signature Matte Revolution lipstick in Very Victoria was then applied for a fuller wider, gorgeous nude lip.


Makeup artist Debra Ferullo gave all-American beauty Kate Hudson a fresh-faced glow for the Vanity Fair after party.

1. Debra used the new Instant Magic Facial Dry Sheet Mask (coming in March!) to give the skin instant glow.

2. Magic Cream was then smoothed on to plump out the skin, followed by Wonderglow primer to make the skin come to life. Next, Light Wonder in 3 was applied to Kate's T-zone, and Light Wonder in 5 and 6 was applied to the hollows of cheeks.

3. The Retoucher was applied under the eyes to bring light to the area, and Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder in 2 was applied to perfect skin.

4. To groom Kate's brows, Debra applied Brow Lift in Rita and Grace K to achieve a natural effect. For the eyes, Team Tilbury applied Eyes to Mesmerise in Marie Antoinette over the entire lid up to the brow bone. She then used Eyes to Mesmerise in Bette on just the lids up to the socket line.

5. Using the enhance shade from the Luxury Palette in The Glamour Muse, Debra applied it from the lid up to the socket line and blended outwards and upwards, and then went overtop with the pop shade.

6. With the smoke shade in the same palette, Debra applied the shadow to the outer corners and blended into the socket.

7. Debra finished by applying two coats of Charlotte's Full Fat Lashes mascara to the bottom and top lashes.

8. Debra lined Kate's lips with Lip Cheat Pencil in Iconic Nude and filled in with Matte Revolution lipstick in Very Victoria.

9. Lastly, Cheek to Chic in Ecstasy was applied to the apples of Kate's cheeks to complete the look.
