How to use it
There are three ways that you can use this concealer according Charlotte Tilbury:
- Face Lift effect – choose your conceal shade (see below) and use the product to conceal and smooth out uneven tone, hyperpigmentation and imperfections
- Eye lift effect – use your brighten shade (one shade lighter than your conceal shade) to correct and brighten dark circles
- Contour – use your contour shade (a deeper shade than your conceal shade) to sculpt in all the normal places that you use contour

Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Concealer vs Magic Away
I had lots of questions about how the new shades compare to the shades in the Magic Away concealer.
I got my beloved Magic Away shade 3 out and put it next to these shades.

I think that the nearest match to Magic Away concealer that I have is Beautiful Skin Concealer in 3.5:

Here they are swatched next to each other:

For reference, I use Shade 4 Neutral in Beautiful Skin Foundation, which I have used for this post.
This is 3.5 applied to the right, before blending.

And here is shade 3 of Magic Away on the left side of the pic, and new Beautiful Skin Concealer in 3.5 on the right – both blended.

I think you may be able to see that the new concealer has a fuller coverage and perhaps a smoother effect? What do you think?

My Review Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Concealer
After Picture of Beautiful Skin Concealer 3.5
Basically, this is a win for me. I love Magic Away, but I know I am not alone when I say that application could be tricky. The lid was sometimes hard to get off and the sponge could get messy.
There are none of those issues with Beautiful Skin Concealer. It is still early days for me but I really really love it. I am very happy with shade 3.5 and I find it lasts very well and looks beautiful.
I think it has slightly more coverage than Magic Away. It has a beautiful smoothing effect, looks luminous and bright and feels wonderfully hyydrating.
I will update with more thoughts as I go, but I think this is going to be a real crowd-pleaser. Big thumbs up!
