How to Use: Your Guide to a Flawless Finish

Discover the secrets to applying Charlotte Tilbury’s Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder for a smooth, poreless-looking complexion. Whether you’re setting your makeup for the day or touching up on the go, these steps will help you achieve stunning results every time.

For a Flawless, All-Day Set

This is the perfect technique to lock in your foundation and concealer for a look that lasts.

1. Swirl: After applying your foundation and concealer, gently swirl a soft, fluffy powder brush, like Charlotte’s Powder & Sculpt Brush, into the compact. Tap off any excess powder.
2. Sweep: Lightly sweep the powder across your T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin), under your eyes, and any other areas where you want to reduce shine and set your makeup.
3. Blend: Use light, outward strokes to blend the powder seamlessly into your skin. The goal is to create a soft-focus veil, not a heavy layer.

Pro Tips for Your Skin Type

Customize your application to get the most out of your powder.

• For Oily Skin: If you’re looking for maximum shine control and coverage, apply the powder more generously. Start at your T-zone and sweep outwards and upwards, covering the entire face. This will create a truly mattified, flawless finish that helps control oil throughout the day.
• For Combination Skin: Focus the application primarily on your oily areas, typically the T-zone. Use a lighter hand on the drier parts of your face, like your cheeks, to maintain a natural, healthy glow without adding unnecessary product.
• For Dry Skin: A little goes a long way. Use a small, targeted brush to apply the powder only where needed, such as under the eyes to set concealer or lightly on the nose. The hydrating ingredients will prevent a chalky look, but a targeted application ensures your skin’s natural luminosity shines through.

Application for Different Needs

• To Set Your Look: Use it as the final step in your makeup routine. It locks everything in place, from foundation and concealer to cream blush and bronzer.
• For On-the-Go Touch-Ups: The chic, portable compact is perfect for your handbag. When you notice shine appearing, simply use a brush or puff to lightly press the powder onto the T-zone to mattify and refresh your look instantly.
• To Achieve an “Undone” Look: On days when you’re wearing minimal makeup, you can use the Airbrush Flawless Finish powder on its own. Apply it over moisturized skin to blur imperfections, even out your skin tone, and reduce shine for a polished, natural look without foundation.
