Beauty writer and makeup minimalist has discovered one product she consistently returns to: Charlotte Tilbury’s Big Lip Plumpgasm lip gloss. The formula has earned repeated praise from others, and it now features in Amazon’s limited-time Holiday Beauty Haul Event discounts.

During a Charlotte Tilbury masterclass event organized by Amazon, participants replicated Christina Aguilera’s holiday campaign look under the instruction of makeup artist Alex Rutkovskiy. The session showcased both new and established products, though discounted items took center stage. Rutkovskiy demonstrated the application of the brand’s Beauty Light Wand highlighter, currently available in seven shades, by warming the applicator against the back of the hand before sweeping it across cheekbones, the nose, and the cupid’s bow. “Charlotte is the queen of the glow, so we love a glowing face,” he said. (He also called out how influencers complain about the packaging exploding in their makeup bags and purses, but that there’s a simple open-and-close twist applicator. The more you know!)

What began as a single lipstick shade has since expanded to four variations, Fair, Original, Medium, and Deep, to accommodate diverse skin tones. Rutkovskiy highlighted the kit’s budget-friendly appeal, with the complete set priced under $25 on Amazon, positioning it as an accessible gift option or stocking filler.

For lip application, Rutkovskiy taught the brand’s signature heart-shaped technique, beginning with the Lip Cheat liner. He emphasized the cupid’s bow and bottom lip center before connecting the sides to create an uplifted lip shape. The Plumpgasm gloss, often described as a holy grail product by devotees, was applied last. Rutkovskiy said: “There’s people who hate plumping glosses and people who are obsessed with them, and there’s no one in the middle.” He added: “It’s such a beautiful formula, which combines heat and cool ingredients, so there’s pepper and mint. It’s cold and hot at the same time. And it plumps your lips in the first three minutes.”

Lipstick, is included in the discounts. The shade delivers a similar Aguilera-inspired pout effect. The writer confirmed the gloss’s longevity, noting she applies it generously for evening events without compromise. Individual components of the kit, the highlighter and Plumpgasm, are also available separately at reduced prices.

Rutkovskiy addressed a frequent concern about the highlighter’s packaging, pointing out the included twist applicator helps prevent spills.
