Cher captivated onlookers at the Met Gala in New York with her ageless appearance, wearing a custom Burberry ensemble complemented by Chrome Hearts and Swarovski jewellery, alongside a full face of Charlotte Tilbury products. At 79, she continues to defy age on red carpets, and this year was no exception.
The Secret Behind the Glow
The key to Cher's radiant look? Charlotte Tilbury's iconic Magic Cream. Originally developed backstage to provide models with an instant glow before runway shows, this moisturiser has achieved legendary status in the beauty world, beloved by makeup artists, editors, and consumers alike.
The cream has been reformulated with a new peptide-powered formula, boasting 100 multi-action peptides derived from stem cells of the eternal jasmine youth plant. According to Tilbury, this ingredient is known for its renewing properties, earning the product the nickname 'facelift in a jar'. Users report plumper, smoother, and more radiant skin in minutes.
Other Charlotte Tilbury Favourites
Cher completed her grungy Met Gala look with additional Charlotte Tilbury staples, including the Pillow Talk Blush Balm Lip Tint in Blushed Jam, the Airbrush Flawless Foundation, and the Unreal Blush Healthy Glow Stick in Pretty Glow. Shoppers have praised these products for their luxurious feel and effective results.
Affordable Alternatives on the Red Carpet
Luxury beauty wasn't the only star of the show. Cara Delevingne, a host of the Met Gala live stream, wore a semi-sheer Ralph Lauren dress and used L'Oreal's Telescopic Extensionist Lengthening & Curling Mascara, priced at £13.99, for a sultry smoky eye. Zoë Kravitz also opted for L'Oreal, achieving her glow with the cult-favourite Lumi Glotion at £11.99. This sheer primer, already a US bestseller before its UK launch in 2024, provides a natural radiance and is available in five shades from 901 Fair Glow to 905 Very Deep Glow at LookFantastic, Superdrug, and Boots.
