Charlotte Tilbury has applied lipstick to some of the most famous lips in the world, so she sure knows how to make a woman feel sexy and hot using make up.
Now she has created a new collection of lipsticks that will support women and empower them too. Launching this summer, her new Hot Lips collection will not only look stunning, but donations will also be made from each sale. Following from International Women’s Day, where we celebrate the influential and inspiring figures who have made an impact on our lives; Charlotte Tilbury has collaborated with not one, but twelve world famous women for her latest makeup launch.
Embracing strong women with a max impact beauty tool, the collection consists of 12 new bespoke lipstick colours, capturing the signature lip colours of each women. Ranging from icons including supermodel Cindy Crawford to Emily Ratajowski, Salma Hayek to young socialite Poppy Delevingne – they all lend their names to their perfectly selected shades. Each woman chosen was based on Charlotte’s admiration for them – either for their beauty, their style and their power of being positive role models.
Lipstick has been used historically to measure the prosperity of a country – a true indication that a small thing can add a great change to the way someone feels about themselves and how that reflects to others. Charlotte spoke of the happiness women can find in every tube “Lipstick is powerful. It can boost your confidence, pick you up when you’re feeling down, re-energise you, add instant glamour to any outfit and immediately enhance your beauty.” Oh, we couldn’t agree more.
The collection will be raising awareness for an amazing charity Women For Women International; which raises money to support women survivors of war and conflict to rebuild their lives. From every Hot Lips sale, £1 will be donated WfWI – in the first 2 months of launch (from June). Tilbury and her 12 celebrity collaborators also plan to spread the word of the charity through the #LipstickConfidence social media campaign; which will be taking place in July alongside the launch. Join in!
It’s the ultimate all-female beauty collaboration that’s for sure, and we cannot wait for it to launch.
