11 Makeup Commandments Charlotte Tilbury Swears By

According to Charlotte, applying a serum before concealer is an old-school makeup artist trick. She recommends using her Mini Miracle Eye Wand, a double-ended tool that contains both formulas. Here's how Charlotte applies it: first (before foundation) pat the serum in, and wait a couple of seconds for it to dry. "The serum kind of stretches the skin and depuffs the area," she noted. "Don't rub! That under-eye area the skin is obviously much thinner than everywhere else." Then, add the light reflector color on top. "It really smooths it out and gives it that light-reflecting finish," Charlotte added.
