Charlotte Tilbury is one of the most famous beauty brands on the high street. The make-up artist’s brand is filled with cult products that are staples in many make-up bags.
But for many beauty aficionados, especially at the moment, replacing your favourite Charlotte Tilbury foundation or eyeshadow isn’t as easy. The luxury products are reserved for a splurging shopping spree or a well-thought gift rather than a regular purchase.
The cost of living crisis is causing all of us to tighten the purse strings, but it’s not the end of the world. Keen bargain hunters and beauty fans have found dupes of some of Charlotte Tilbury’s best products at a considerable discount.

Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter dupes
Flawless Filter is described as a “customisable complexion booster”, it’s halfway between a primer and a foundation and if you want a beautiful glow on your skin, this product can do no wrong. But at £39 a bottle, it’s not the cheapest product to repurchase.
However, keen beauty fans have found a couple of dupes that work in similar ways and cost significantly less.
E.l.f. Halo Glow Liquid Filter - £14
At just £14, this is a major reduction on the price of Charlotte Tilbury’s original. TikTok users went crazy for the affordable “complexion booster” and often the product is out of stock in at least half of the shades.
Popular TikTok creator Mikayla Nogueira gave the product her seal of approval in a comparison video with more than 1.3 million likes. She says: “I take dupes very seriously… This looks identical - identical!”
Collection Gorgeous Glow Filter Finish - £6.99
Collection Cosmetics are renowned for their low prices, with many products available for as little as £1. Described as “the ultimate illuminator, prime and skin perfector”, Filter Finish has rave reviews with one shopper describing it as better than the original.
They said, “This product is so much better than the original, it gives a beautiful glow and adds a tiny bit of coverage. This feels just incredible and for the price, I will definitely be buying again, it’s magic!”
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand dupe
The contour wand, recognisable with its cushion applicator, is a cult favourite for good reason. It’s described as being lightweight and able to blend seamlessly and even at £30 a pop, it’s almost always sold out.
Revolution Eye Bright Concealer - £6
Using liquid contour is one of the latest beauty world crazes and you’ll often see videos of influencers covered in dots before blending in their product. This concealer, used in a darker shade, has been described as being slightly dryer but very blendable and more pigmented than its Charlotte Tilbury counterpart.
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise dupe
These stunning eyeshadow pots are a massive investment at £26 for just one shade. They are incredible though, with many users opting for the whipped, creamy shadows as shades to use on their wedding days.
Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Cream Eyeshadow - £4.99
Do not fret, however, for the price of one Charlotte Tilbury favourite, you can pick up five shades of Maybelline’s Colour Tattoo shadows. There are hundreds of reviews from happy shoppers who praise the shimmery shades for their smudge and waterproof lasting power.
Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk dupe
Pillow Talk is perhaps one of Charlotte Tilbury’s most popular and iconic products. A beautiful, neutral pink, Pillow Talk comes in a comfortable matte lipstick and suits almost everyone who wears it.
At £27, it’s an expensive investment for a lipstick, especially if you’re going in blind without trying it beforehand. But that doesn’t mean you can’t get a taste before investing.
Revolution Satin Kiss lipstick in chauffeur - £5
Now, on the outside this one is a dead ringer for the original pillow talk down to the rose gold tube it’s packaged in. At just £5, it’s hard to argue with this, the shade is practically bang on though you do lose some luxury in the formula.
However, if you’re just trying to get a taste of the iconic product, then it may not be a horrible idea to try this one out first and save yourself some pennies.
