Introduction
The intersection of sports and beauty has taken a glamorous turn with the partnership of Charlotte Tilbury and the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders (DCC). Known for their iconic performances and striking looks, the DCC epitomize confidence and charisma, a perfect match for Tilbury, whose makeup artistry has enhanced the beauty of numerous celebrities throughout her illustrious career. By becoming the DCC’s first official beauty partner, Tilbury not only provides a strategic beauty routine tailored for the cheerleaders but also opens up avenues for fans to adopt a similar look, marrying high-performance makeup with everyday aesthetics.
The Partnership: A Match Made in Glam
Charlotte Tilbury's relationship with the DCC is a blend of shared values and mutual admiration for classic Americana. “Their style is rooted in classic, timeless Americana,” she explains. Through this partnership, Tilbury aims to amplify the natural beauty and strength of the cheerleaders while ensuring their makeup withstands the rigors of performance.
Her inspiration stems from iconic American beauties, from the sun-kissed glow of Jennifer Aniston to the iconic lip of Cindy Crawford. The cheerleaders embody the same confidence and transformation she seeks to evoke in those who use her products.
The Art of Sweat-Proof Makeup
With extensive rehearsals and performances under the Texas sun, the DCC requires makeup that is as resilient as they are. Tilbury emphasizes the importance of creating a look that is not only visually appealing but also functional—designed to be long-lasting without the need for constant touch-ups.
Key Products for Flawless Wear
To achieve a look that can withstand the sweltering heat without compromising style, Tilbury has identified key products that form the backbone of the DCC's beauty routine.
Magic Cream Moisturizer
The foundation of any effective makeup application is good skin prep. Tilbury asserts, “You cannot have a beautiful painting without a beautiful canvas,” stressing the importance of hydration and skin care in the beauty regimen. The Magic Cream Moisturizer, gifted to every cheerleader in the squad, promises to create hydrated, plump skin, perfectly priming it for the application of makeup.
Airbrush Flawless Foundation
Next in the lineup is the Airbrush Flawless Foundation, known for its lightweight feel and full coverage that diminishes imperfections. With commendations for its ability to minimize the look of redness, blemishes, and fine lines, this foundation works well in the scorching heat while providing the coverage necessary for performance and photo opportunities.
“Apply half a pump of foundation onto the back of your hand and buff from the center of your face outward,” Tilbury suggests. This technique ensures maximum control, leading to a natural finish.
Setting for Success
Locked in with the Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder, the DCC girls enjoy a product that smooths and blurs imperfections while delivering a matte finish that doesn’t look flat. This powder is formulated to be hydrating, avoiding the dreaded “cakey” look that can occur with traditional setting powders.
Tilbury urges, “This powder not only sets for hours but moves with the skin without settling into fine lines,” emphasizing the importance of comfort during their active routines.
The Final Touch: Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray
To complete the routine, the Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray is utilized. Dubbed "your very own cheerleader," this spray promises to maintain makeup integrity for up to 16 hours. This final layer ensures that the squad stays camera-ready throughout varied activities, such as moving from the locker room to the field.
Mastering the Makeup Look at Home
Tilbury is not only about performance-level makeup for professional cheerleaders; she extends her reach by offering fans the same pro tips and products to achieve the stunning DCC look at home.
Contour and Highlight Like a Pro
To cultivate that sought-after "snatched” look, Tilbury suggests her Hollywood Contour Wand paired with the Beauty Light Wand. These products are designed for easy application, allowing even novices to master the art of contouring and highlighting.
"Simply apply two dots on the sides of your forehead, along your cheekbones and jawline, then blend," she instructs, inviting everyone to enhance their facial structure simply and effectively.
Eye-Catching Appeal
To bring focus to the eyes, the Exagger-Eyes Volume Mascara is touted as a game-changer. With claims of up to 28-hour wear, this waterproof formula not only adds volume but also promises to be smudge and flake-proof, crucial for a day full of activities.
Tilbury emphasizes that just one coat can deliver striking results for a wide-eyed look that withstands the heat, making it a staple in the DCC's and fans' makeup bags alike.
The Perfect Pout
The much-anticipated “perfect America’s Sweethearts pout” begins with the Lip Cheat Lip Liner and is completed with the iconic Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk. Grounded in both a rich history of success and contemporary trends, the color not only increases the definition of the lips but also provides a long-lasting finish that doesn’t feather.
Tilbury’s products and techniques encourage a beauty experience that is thorough yet accessible, allowing users to feel empowered and fabulous—much like the cheerleaders themselves.
Living Up to the Hype

From ensuring the makeup can withstand sweat and humidity to providing tips that consumers can apply in their everyday routines, this partnership redefines beauty standards in sports.
