The Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Contour Duo in Beige is designed for individuals seeking to enhance their lips for a wider, fuller appearance. This innovative double-ended pencil provides a unique solution by combining a darker 'Sculpt' shade for natural contouring and a lighter, creamy 'Fill' shade for all-over color, creating a three-dimensional effect. While offering an easy-to-use method for lip enhancement, mastering the precise application for your desired look may require a bit of practice.
Discover the core functionalities that make your Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Contour Duo a standout product for lip enhancement:
Self-Contouring Double-Ended Pencil: This intuitive design simplifies the lip contouring process by providing two specialized formulas in one tool, allowing the pencil to guide the creation of definition and fullness.
Optimized Dual Formulas: One end ('Sculpt') features a powdery, darker shade to create natural-looking shadows and a '3D lip plumping effect,' while the other ('Fill') is a soft, creamy, lighter shade that glides on smoothly for all-over color and seamless blending.
Highly Pigmented + Easy to Blend: Both formulas are rich in color, ensuring a quick and impactful pay-off. Their blendability promotes a natural, seamless transition between shades for a polished contoured look.
Long-Lasting Performance: Engineered to last for up to 6 hours, this duo helps maintain your lip look throughout the day and effectively prevents lipstick feathering.
Lip Volume + Hydration: Infused with plump-effect peptides, the formulas contribute to smoother, more hydrated, and visibly plumper-looking lips. The 'Fill' end moisturizes for up to 24 hours and increases hydration by 93% after 12 hours, while the 'Sculpt' end also moisturizes for up to 24 hours and increases hydration by 117% after 12 hours.

The Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Contour Duo in Beige is engineered for effortless lip enhancement, creating the illusion of fuller, more defined lips. Its dual-ended design and specialized formulas work in harmony to achieve a natural, sculpted look.
Prepare Your Lips: For the best results, ensure your lips are smooth and hydrated. You may gently exfoliate if needed and apply a light lip balm, allowing it to absorb fully.
Define with the 'Sculpt' End: Take the darker, powdery 'Sculpt' end of the pencil. Gently trace just outside your natural lip line, focusing on areas where you want to create depth and shadow, such as under the center of your bottom lip and along the Cupid's bow. Use light, feathery strokes to mimic natural shadows and create a softer, more blended line. This creates the '3D lip plumping effect'.
Fill and Blend with the 'Fill' End: Switch to the lighter, soft and creamy 'Fill' end. Apply this shade all over your lips, blending it seamlessly into the 'Sculpt' line you just created. You can use it as a base for lipstick, or wear it alone for a natural, enhanced nude look. The creamy texture ensures comfortable wear and easy blending.
Layer (Optional): For added dimension or if you're using it as a base, follow with your favorite lipstick or gloss over the 'Fill' shade.
Start Light: Begin with minimal product and build up to your desired intensity. It's easier to add more product than to remove it.
Blend Immediately: The creamy 'Fill' formula blends best when applied shortly after the 'Sculpt' shade.
Practice Makes Perfect: Experiment with the placement of the 'Sculpt' shade to find what works best for your unique lip shape and desired outcome.
For Long-Lasting Wear: The pencil itself is long-lasting. For extended wear of your lip color, apply the 'Fill' shade across the entire lip as a primer before your chosen lipstick.
Getting started with your Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Contour Duo is straightforward. Proper care will ensure its longevity and performance.
Your Lip Cheat Contour Duo comes ready to use. Simply uncap the desired end.
As with any traditional lip pencil, your Lip Cheat Contour Duo will need to be sharpened to maintain precision. Use a high-quality cosmetic pencil sharpener to ensure a clean, smooth tip without damaging the product. Sharpen both the 'Sculpt' and 'Fill' ends as needed.
With Other Lip Products: This duo is designed to be highly compatible with a wide range of lipsticks, liquid lipsticks, and lip glosses. The 'Fill' shade acts as an excellent base to enhance color and prolong wear, while the 'Sculpt' shade provides definition that complements any lip color.
Skin Tones: The 'Beige' shade is formulated with neutral nude tones that are neither too cool nor too warm, aiming to flatter various complexions by mimicking natural shadows.
Storage: Store your Lip Cheat Contour Duo in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can affect the formula's texture and longevity. Keep the caps securely on both ends when not in use to prevent drying out and to protect the tips.
Cleaning: The pencil itself does not require cleaning beyond sharpening. If the outer casing gets dirty, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth.
Hygiene: To maintain hygiene, avoid sharing your lip pencil with others. If desired, you can gently wipe the pencil tip with a clean tissue after each use.
