Below, Tilbury shares her humble beginnings in the makeup industry, the motivations behind her innovations, her favourite celebrities to work with, and more.
How did you get your start in the industry?
I discovered the transformative power of makeup as a teenager. I loved doing makeup on all my friends in school, and it made me realise that having the right makeup could instil confidence in everyone. After attending makeup school and assisting a makeup artist, I went on to head up my own team of artists.
The 1990s was such an exciting time to be starting out. I was working backstage on countless fashion shows with supermodels including Claudia Schiffer, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington and of course, my gorgeous friend and beauty muse, Kate Moss, as well as creating red carpet looks on celebrities like Penelope Cruz, Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Lopez, Sofia Vergara and Salma Hayek.
