Charlotte Tilbury Wants You to go to Sleep With Makeup On

Famed British makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury recently spoke to Allure Magazine and shared some of her beauty tips, one of which includes going to sleep with makeup on. Tilbury launched a beauty line last year in the UK and Europe and it's currently available through Net-a-Porter.com. 
On to the beauty tips! Tilbury suggests trying colored eyeliner to bring out the color of your eyes. She suggests plum for green eyes, reddish brown for blue eyes and copper or bronze for brown eyes.

Try using two shades of blush. This is a new one for me, I've never heard a suggestion like this before, but it makes sense. Tilbury says to try a fleshy color just below the apples of your cheeks and a brighter shade on the centers.

Don't match your foundation to your face, but rather match it to your neck or decolletage which is just a tad darker than your face. She says that blemishes and dark circles are more noticeable on a pale face.

Don't forget to curl your lashes! Tilbury says curling your lashes is like a push-up bra for your eyes.

Last but not least, she suggests taking all of your face makeup off, but leaving eyeliner and mascara on so you wake up with a lived-in and sexy look.

I realize she's a pro and all, but I've fallen asleep with my eye makeup on before and I looked scary when I woke up. So I won't be following that tip! 

In case you want to see some of the beauty line, here are some more photos to drool over:

The Magic Cream is supposed to be the ish when it comes to priming and moisturizing your face. Tilbury says she can't do a face without it.
