Opportunity

Charlotte Tilbury offered our members randomised skincare or makeup bundles to promote their 30% OFF summer sale, including Charlotte’s most loved and award-winning products.
In return, advocates created authentic and engaging content that inspired and educated their following on either skincare routines or beauty transformations.
