Charlotte Tilbury cult 'magic' cream slashed to 'unheard of' €42 in huge sale
The iconic Charlotte's Magic Cream, hailed by fans as "the best moisturiser ever", is now half price as part of the brand's major summer sale. Normally, two 50ml refill jars would cost a hefty €175 - but right now, shoppers can pick up two of these refill tubs for just €85, making each pot just €42.50 - which is practically unheard of for Charlotte Tilbury.
Described by Charlotte herself as "magic skin", the cream is a "skin revival moisturiser" that "retexturises, smooths, firms, plumps and primes the look of skin in one step". Infused with a "Magic Matrix" of ingredients - including hyaluronic acid, vitamins C & E, and a plump-effect peptide complex - it's clinically proven to improve skin's texture and hydration.
Originally created backstage at fashion shows to transform tired, dull complexions, this cream became so popular with models and makeup artists that it quickly gained cult status. Tilbury says the "instant miracle turnaround cream" became a beauty industry secret before going viral - and has remained a global favourite ever since.
With a 4.6-star rating from nearly 6,000 reviews, fans call it a skincare essential. One shopper said: "This is my 6th pot... I absolutely love it". Another wrote: "Always go back to this! My favourite moisturiser ever!" One review summed it up saying: "The best moisturiser I have ever used and I have used many."
Many reviewers swear by this cream's results. One happy customer wrote, "It leaves the skin feeling plump and healthy," while another said, "My face feels the difference and my mirror shows me how." Another fan added: "This cream is fantastic, it melts in to the skin [and] doesn't leave your face greasy like some moisturisers".
Even those with tricky skin types are singing its praises. One reviewer said: "I have THE most fickle, hyper-sensitive skin... but blow me down if it isn't the lightest, most nourishingly, moisturising cream I've used in a looong time!"

Several shoppers love how the cream performs under makeup. One said: "It works really well in keeping my makeup looking fresh all day long." Another added: "Amazing product! Glides on the skin making it a must-have preparation for the perfect makeup look."
Some say they saw visible changes quickly. One wrote: "That cream is really magical - all my skin problems disappeared in a week. Since then my skin is beautiful!" Another echoed this, writing: "Definitely lives up to the name, magic! Beautifully nourishes my skin and leaves me feeling as if I have just had a facial."
However, others weren't sure about visible improvements. One said: "Absolutely love this cream. It leaves my skin feeling velvety silky smooth all day. Not sure if it has improved the look but definitely has the feel." Another mentioned the high cost of the cream, saying: "Everything about this moisturiser is amazing, I've had 3 lots now and while it is pricey I love it. It feels like a treat everyday."
For customers who've struggled to find the right product, this one seems to be the solution. One reviewer said: "After years of trying to find the perfect balance for my skin, this is it! I would really struggle without it now." Another summed it up: "I seriously can't live without this product!"

Thanks to the cream's popularity, a wave of potential dupes has hit the market - including a £6 (€7) version from Penneys that's been gaining attention online. Beauty fan @beautyglowgirl tested Penneys PS Pro Hydration Cream with SPF 15 against the original Magic Cream and found both felt luxurious under makeup.
While she noted that Tilbury's version had a "strong fragrance" and left "a bit of a film", the Penneys version was "ultra-hydrating", fragrance-free and "sinks in better". Despite liking the budget option "a lot", she admitted the two creams are "definitely not the same".
Meanwhile on Amazon, the Revolution Beauty London Pro Miracle Cream has also been hailed by reviewers as a potential dupe for Charlotte's Magic Cream - and costs just €8.98
One shopper said: "I don't know if this is a dupe or not for the Charlotte Tilbury Magic cream but this did wonders for my super dry skin and made my foundation look perfect." Another claimed: "Its a dupe for charlotte Tilbury, i love it."
A third reviewer agreed it was a decent alternative, but added a humorous downside: "Miracle cream is actually a decent dupe for CT - except for one thing - it smells like Drakkar Noir from the 80's boy scents with an overtone of Giorgio for the Beverly Hills older ladies-- BLECH!!!"

Americans baffled by Ireland's chicken fillet roll and Cork's flag during visit
Rattling off your go-to chicken fillet roll order might be second nature, but for tourists, the fascination lies in understanding why this humble deli item is a staple in Irish life. That's exactly what piqued the interest of American YouTubers Joey and Lauren, who sampled their very first chicken fillet roll on a trip to Cork. Their culinary adventure began after comedian and singer-songwriter Garron Noone dropped a comment on one of their videos. However, upon reaching Dunnes Stores to try out the renowned hangover remedy, they were hit by the sudden realisation that they were clueless about the process. The rookie pair, eager to dig into what they dubbed an iconic part of the Irish diet, turned to the store staff and some youngsters in line for their own rolls for guidance. Joey confessed to the camera inside Dunnes: "We are probably going to ask somebody because we have never gotten this before. We don't really know what this is but we know we need to try it." Despite the initial confusion, the content creators got their rolls after some help from locals (Image: YOUTUBE/Joey and Lauren) Lauren chimed in with her own uncertainty: "We are kind of confused how to get it, like if you are supposed to order it or buy it in a prepackaged thing?" After getting some assistance, they received their rolls, opting for a "really plain" combo of southern fried chicken, mayonnaise, butter, shredded cheese and corn, all for €4.99. Before tucking in, Joey expressed gratitude towards the Cork locals: "Everybody was super helpful. They helped us order it and we also got a free can of 7UP. "Really nice workers here and these group of guys to our right, they actually helped us out a lot, they have been really nice to us." When it came to the big reveal, Lauren declared: "It smells good. I don't know how I'm going to take a bit out of this it is so big. Oh my gosh. That's really good. It is hard to eat though." She went on to say: "We will definitely be getting this again. This is really good, definitely one of my favourite things that I have eaten here... hashtag demolished." A true sight to be hold (Image: YOUTUBE/Joey and Lauren) Joey was just as impressed, and after polishing his off, he enthused: "This is super good. In the words of Garron Noone, delicious, because this is super good. I would get this ten times out of ten, this is a ten out of ten, I am glad we got this. I am really hungry, kind of hungover, and this is a great treat for that." The pair had a brilliant time exploring Cork, but before discovering the ins and outs of the All Ireland hurling final, something else - aside from the chicken fillet roll - left them scratching their heads. Discussing the iconic red and white banners, Joey explained: "There is really great scenery here. We love this spot overlooking the water here, amazing. But as we have been doing our walks we have been noticing these flags, it looks like a Polish flag or an Indonesian flag so we were like, 'Are people just really big fans of Poland here because it is red and white?' "But luckily our friends last night told us it is actually Cork's county flag, so cool to know." Following the release of their video, which can be viewed in its entirety here, one viewer responded: "Chicken fillet roll out of Dunnes. You have been baptised. You can officially call yourself Irish."
