Twiggy, 74, uses this Charlotte Tilbury mascara on her iconic lashes
This multitasker lifts, lengthens and volumizes for up to 24 hours, and it's smudge-proof for hot summer days.
Can you imagine being internationally known for your gorgeous eyelashes? Among plenty of other accomplishments, that's a brag that iconic supermodel Twiggy, 74, has under her belt, even after decades of being in front of the camera. Twiggy, real name Dame Lesley Lawson, burst onto the scene in the mid-'60s. She even landed on the cover of Vogue in 1967, at the tender age of 17. Her waifish figure and boyish haircut were striking, but equally so? Her long, dark lashes. While those were falsies back in the Swingin' Sixties, Twiggy still leans into her signature look today with the assistance of Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes! Mascara.
This cruelty-, paraben- and gluten-free formula is designed to give that beloved falsie effect, without the falsie effort.
When Twiggy became one of the new faces of Charlotte Tilbury in 2022, she shared her love of the brand's mascara with People. "I love the Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes! Mascara, and the new shade Dream Pop is my favorite! ... I pair this with the new Pillow Talk Dreams palette." The supermodel explained that her makeup routine has certainly changed over the years — of her signature look, she shared that she was "very fond" of dramatic eye makeup ever since she was young and "invented" her particular style.
"[The look] would take me one and a half hours to apply, including three pairs of false eyelashes," Twiggy laughed. Now? She depends on Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes to achieve dramatic eyelashes without the effort.
Push Up Lashes mascara promises to create a falsie effect without the fuss, thanks to a combination of an innovative wand and formula. The paddle-style brush has teeny tiny bristles that lift each lash for maximum volume, creating an eye-opening effect, and the mascara's formula uses a lash-lifting polymer derived from the larch tree. This ingredient is naturally "gummy" and helps lift and hold lashes in place while curling them, resulting in a false-lash look with a barely-there feel. Keratin is also in the mix, which helps condition individual lashes and create a thicker look, along with caranuba wax, which adds body and volume. The formula is also smudge-proof and humidity-proof — super important for the summer months!
Dame Twiggy isn't the only fan of Push Up Lashes — more than 500 shoppers are fans of the product at Sephora, giving the mascara a fresh-faced five-star rating.
"Love how my lashes look when I wear the mascara," said one five-star fan, who even "stopped wearing fake lashes."
Another user raved, "This might be one of the best mascara formulas I've tried, and the applicator complements it perfectly. The end result is a length and thickness to my lashes that isn't overly clumpy or crunchy."
One devotee shared that, though they have oily skin, "it does not transfer under eyes throughout the day. Looks natural with one good coat and can build nicely without clumping for more dramatic eye looks."
While Jet Black would be many users' go-to, Twiggy's favorite color is Dream Pop, a berry-brown shade meant to emphasize a range of eye colors, from blue to hazel to brown.
One reviewer wrote of Dream Pop, "Perfect for redheads! It doesn't look like a crazy color when you put it on. It looks great, because it's less harsh of a color than black against my fair complexion. Will definitely be repurchasing!"
Interested in Twiggy's other Charlotte Tilbury favorites? She also shared that she's a big fan of Magic Cream and Magic Night Cream:
This moisturizer is "gorgeous for every day," Twiggy says. An infusion of hyaluronic acid helps it keep skin quenched.
Twiggy shared that she has dry skin, so "lots of moisturizer is really important to me." She uses this cream every night to lock in hydration for some very literal beauty sleep. The included retinol helps combat visible signs of aging.
