If you’re looking for an excuse to restock your Charlotte Tilbury collection, this is it. Aside from launching one of our favourite ever advent calendars, the brand has gone all out for its holiday campaign. Teaming up with the likes of Sir Elton John and Kate Moss, Charlotte has well and truly taken festive cheer to the next level.
But there’s something extra special about this Christmas launch.
The brand has announced its role as the Founding Beauty Partner of The Rocket Fund powered by the Elton John AIDS Foundation. And it even released a new limited edition makeup collection to celebrate!
Elton John x Charlotte Tilbury collab
Elton and Charlotte have co-created two new shades of the iconic Matte Revolution Lipstick. The limited edition Charlotte Tilbury Rock Lips in ‘Rocket Girl’ ($58 at Charlotte Tilbury) and ‘Ready For Lust’ ($58 at Charlotte Tilbury) are both inspired by Elton’s rockstar aesthetic. And you can snag them both along with a crystal-embellished makeup bad in the Rock Star Beauty Icons kit ($200 at Charlotte Tilbury).
If you’ve tried the iconic ‘Pillow Talk’ lippy (it’s Amal Clooney’s favourite lipstick), you’ll know it definitely lives up to the hype. And the two new shades – a pinky-nude and a rich berry hue (perfect for party season) – are set to become mainstays in your everyday makeup rotation.
“I truly believe in the virtuous circle of life – giving back and doing something wonderful that changes the world!” Charlotte says of the collaboration. “This is the most magical collaboration I could have dreamt of and together we want to shine a spotlight on those who are most at risk from HIV and inspire and empower everyone, everywhere, to live a life filled with confidence, happiness, and joy.”
And the legendary ‘Rocketman’ singer is equally as thrilled. “I had so much fun stepping into beauty magic and working with Charlotte and her muses to bring this fabulous campaign to life,” he says. “This campaign is certainly going to bring the sparkle, joy and glamour this holiday season, all while supporting my Foundation’s life-saving work.”
The Rocket Fund is on a mission to tackle the ‘stigmatisation, marginalisation, and poverty [that] have led to high rates of HIV and low access to healthcare’ worldwide. Charlotte’s personal contribution to the fund will help provide life-saving services and support to over 40,000 young people at risk of HIV and AIDS.
We truly cannot think of a more perfect pairing – or a better excuse to stock up on some new lippy.

Which of these Elton John x Charlotte Tilbury launches are you most excited to try?!
This is expensive for me to try.
it is and some of the sizes of skincare are incredibly small
Looks very luxe. 🙂
Very luxe! It looks tempting. 🙂
Very tempting, but way too expensive for my budget.
Absolutely Awesome Collaboration with Elton John Charlotte Tilbury so very Luxurious and very Expensive ❤️
I like the packaging, and the lippy shades look nice, but I probably won’t be buying them.
Yep, love the star patterns for the rockstar range!
I’m surprised he doesn’t have a line of glasses in Specsavers
Love it! I reckon they would sell too 🙂
Yes that would be the way to go !!
What an interesting collab!
Its quite pricy and I want to look at it first lol
‘Ready for lust’ looks gorgeous. They are pricey though. I wouldn’t mind paying that sort of money of they are worth it and are long lasting and non-feathering. Has anyone tried this brand?
They look beautiful, but too expensive for me.
A little out of my league, but I can’t help wishing! Wouldn’t that be lovely?!
I agree, a bit expensive but maybe one day??
That’s well out of my price range, but I do agree that it’s a good cause.
Yep, I can’t afford it but glad that some of that hefty pricetag is being donated to a good cause.
I can’t keep up. I stopped buying CT because I have so much of it and she keeps releasing new products all the time.
I know the feeling -It’s like being on a mouse wheel with no end in sight.
I haven’t tried Pillow Talk yet but I’d like to!
I do like the star packaging.
They’re beyond my budget.
I love the look of Richberry lipstick.
Thank goodness this collab is for charity. When I read the headline I thought ‘Wow haven’t these people got enough money’.
It is so good to promote a charity and hopefully at this price the charity gets a reasonable amount.
Not really my thing
Too expensive for me.
Never expected to see this collab!
I agree with others, the shades look nice from the photo but too expensive. I also couldn’t see if any of your purchase goes towards The Rocket Man fund.
Happy to pass on this.
I don’t wear makeup enough to buy it, it would go mouldy.
omg no, would never. Not big on CT goodies, and with elton collab? weird and no
That’s awesome!
the colours of these are right down my alley and i love ct lipstick, but i own too many lip products at the moment
