Whether you’re jetting off for a summer holiday, a business trip, or a weekend away with friends, there’s something for EVERYONE!!” Charlotte Tilbury
Fraser Brown, Retail Director at Heathrow said:
“We are delighted to be the first airport to welcome Charlotte Tilbury- another unique shopping offer for the thousands of passengers passing through Terminal 5 each year. Hosting the finest British brands at Heathrow is essential in our goal to deliver the best airport service and shopping experience in the world, and a lasting, positive impression of our country to our overseas visitors.”

The new Charlotte Tilbury Beauty counter, situated at the front of the World Duty Free Beauty Hall, officially opened today, Friday 28th June. Bringing Charlotte’s expert Hollywood, red carpet and backstage secrets to life in Heathrow Terminal 5, the counter has been designed with the instantly recognizable rose gold, night crimson and old Hollywood inspired décor, which customers have come to know and love.
The counter will showcase Charlotte’s makeup and skincare products, including her famous Charlotte’s Magic Cream and the icon Pillow Talk alongside Charlotte’s iconic 10 looks wardrobe which is at the heart of the brand. One woman, 10 looks – like a wardrobe of little black dresses, these color-curated, off-the-peg, ready-to-wear makeup looks show women how to match the right eyes, cheeks and lips as put together by Charlotte. Unique to the range, women can choose by personality, lifestyle & preference. All customers will have the chance to explore, play and shop at their leisure and discover her travel beauty tips and tricks.
Charlotte’s award-winning Beach Sticks, inspired by her childhood in the magical, bohemian Ibiza, will be exclusively retailed in World Duty Free at Heathrow Terminal 5 going forward, outside of CharlotteTilbury.com. The easy-to-use, creamy color blushes create the ultimate summer radiant glow, the perfect accompaniment for any holiday beauty look.
On the day of launch, travelers leaving from London’s Paddington Station to head to Heathrow, will find Charlotte’s Team Tilbury cabin crew handing out her iconic Hot Lips stickers to place on their suitcases.
