Charlotte Tilbury and friends behaving badly - reports of abuse from employees, sadly!

I really do wonder if CT has fallen slightly out of favour.
This could be! I’m not seeing as much as before. And I spotted that What Olivia Did had sold her gifted Magic Serum on eBay before it was even released. She was another big CT fan so it surprised me to see that.

Did all the stories about staff mistreatment go viral? Did CT ever respond?

I think the skincare is better than the make-up. I heard from a make-up artist friend that it’s actually created with/by a facialist who was unhappy about not being credited enough.
Like all of her line, it is ridiculously overpriced but I like the clay mask and beauty balm/4 in 1 thing.

I find the make-up hit or miss. I like the Dolce Vita (although I believe it has been renamed the Bella Sofia after her nieces) and original Pillow Talk eyeshadow palettes. Not impressed by the concealer or foundation.

It is shocking that a company so rotten can be worth so much. A lot of people, including influencers and beauty writers/columnists, willing to look the other way for £££
Brands like this get bought because it’s venture capitalists who make the decision based off of valuations / industry growth / financial performance measures and nothing else. If they were doing well selling you tit in a tube they’d still get snapped up. I’d imagine literally no one in those M&A departments or meetings has once discussed products / sustainability / brand ethos beyond their top sellers listings 🤷🏻‍♀️

I recommend you watch Dr Dray a licensed dermatologist on youtube or learn to read ingredients lists and you'll see how much she's ripping off her customers, it might have short term benefits like smelling nice or making your skin look glow-y but they're highly irritable and have really tit ingredients for such a high price point! she's just benefitting off the "Reputation" of her brand. Dermatologist's and aestheticians definitely do not recommend her skin care products

Thank you for recommending Dr Dray, I hadn't heard of her but can't wait to watch the rest of her videos. She's very good and it's so great to hear a dermatologist's informed thoughts and advice!

I must check them out! Some skincare seems to be such a rip off. A lot of people say that the magic cream is just expensive nivea

Her make up is not my cup of tea, and her magic cream moisturizer made me break out.
Not a fan and I cannot understand the hype

That 'Goddess Cleansing Ritual' duo made me break out 😖I'm still red and I wish I'd never used it!

I've never had any problems with the Magic Cream, but I'm thinking I'll stop using it as well. Really enjoying Dr Dray's videos about skincare and I'm going to adopt a simpler approach in my own routine. So much BS in the beauty industry!

It really is, having us believe you need to use all these different products, and all the lies about what they do, such a money spinner. I love Dr Dray's no-nonsense straight talk, she's not afraid to drag these companies/products! Really like her, thank you for telling me about her channel! I've noticed how skinny she is though and I hope she's ok.

Her foundation brought me out in the worst rash that lasted on and off for years. Left me unable to wear make up and even my facial regime had to change to all natural.

Another day, another new product launch. Oh my days! Charlotte Tilbury have been launching product after product like nobody’s business this past while, it kind of rubs me up the wrong way with this current situation; it strikes me as being so greedy and tone-deaf. I wonder how their sales figures are these days.

Very late to the party but did any ever come out of this? CT seems to be going as strong as ever.

Never bought any of her products but can’t stand how all her YT videos use models with perfect glowing skin. Always made me think her products were best suited to those who are already blessed with good skin and lovely features. Don’t know if that’s changed recently but I’d pay good money to see CT use her products on someone with skin that wasn’t flawless.
