Charlotte Tilbury Expects Her Two New Products To Become ‘Instant Viral Sensations': ‘A Product Does Not Launch Until It Is Perfect'
Charlotte Tilbury
Right on the heels of the announcement earlier this month that Charlotte Tilbury will be the first-ever official beauty partner of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, her brand is leaning into what it is calling its 'Unreal Summer'—which includes the release of two new products.
Inspired by the cult favorite Unreal Skin Tint, the Unreal Blush Healthy Glow comes out June 18, with the Unreal Lips Healthy Glow Nectar Oil available to buy the next month on July 15.
'With every beauty innovation I create, I always put skin first, supercharging each formula—whether it is skincare or makeup—with science-backed, skin-loving ingredients to create incredible formulas that are suitable for all skin types,' Tilbury tells me via email. (She calls me 'darling'—so very signature of her—multiple times. It's a beauty writer's dream come true.)
Up first in Tilbury's Unreal Summer Collection is the launch of the brand's Unreal Blush, which is available to buy today. 'I wanted everyone to be able to mimic the way your skin blushes when you've spent the day on the beach and look fresh, radiant and healthy, so I have created a holiday glow-up in a stick,' she says, calling the blush a 'summer-glow filter effect, bottled.'
Charlotte Tilbury's Unreal Blush features six shades.
The blushes come in six shades, and 'it looks and feels like a second skin,' Tilbury says.
'I am also obsessed with the viral blonzing trend, which mimics that gorgeous, sun-blushed glow that looks like you've just spent the day at the beach,' she says, calling the product 'the lovechild of blusher and bronzer.' The Unreal Blush also leans into the glazed blush trend, and the application is simple, she teaches me: apply the product around the forehead and in a 'W' shape across the nose and cheeks and blend.
'Everyone will be asking if you've been on holiday, have spent a day at the spa or have just been on a juice cleanse,' she assures me.
The Unreal Blush, released June 18, is part of Tilbury's Unreal Summer Collection.
The Unreal Lips also come in six shades, and she tells me she worked with leading Parisian experts and mixologists to produce what she calls her 'mood boosting scent technology,' which 'is proven to enhance feelings of happiness.' (Lip products have long been known to make me happier, but now it's science-backed happiness.)
'It's a sensory dream,' she says.
The innovations don't end there, as it turns out—two of the six lip shades, Pink Watermelon and Strawberry Vanilla, adapt to the pH of each wearer's lips to 'reveal a one-of-a-kind shade that's unique to you,' Tilbury says, also telling me that she 'meticulously designed' the product's applicator to hug the contours of the lip and 'distribute the optimal amount of product.' The Unreal Lips are, in her words, 'a lip hug in a tube.'
The six Unreal Lips shades are designed to not only look good, but boost happiness.
The Unreal Lips fill in the look of fine lines and are scented, as 'I have never enjoyed the sickly sweetness of existing lip oils out there, so we tested iteration after iteration to perfect my essences so it's like bottling the nectar of each fruit so they smell super natural,' she says. The fruits available? The aforementioned Pink Watermelon and Strawberry Vanilla, plus Coconut Water, Cherry Glaze, Pure Peach and Candy Fig.
Unreal Lips drops on July 15, including the Pink Watermelon shade, seen here.
Tilbury is president, chairman, chief creative officer and founder of her eponymous brand—and when your name is on the company, it absolutely has to be done right.
'A product does not launch until it is perfect, which can sometimes take years,' Tilbury says, adding that those who shop her products 'deserve nothing but the best.'
'I cannot wait to see my Unreal Blush and Unreal Lips become instant viral sensations,' she adds.

The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Just Got A Massive Raise. Here's How Much They Make In 2025.
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." It's easy to fall in love with the Netflix's hit docuseries, America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. After all, these women work hard and make it clear they're high-level athletes, pushing themselves to their limits just to make the team and compete throughout the season. But season 1 of the series also highlighted how little the cheerleaders are compensated for their hard work. In fact, their low salaries forced many of the women to get other jobs just to pay the bills. But now, that's all changing. In the brand new second season of the show, viewers learn that the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders will receive a pay raise of about 400 percent for the 2025 season. The pay increase follows years of criticism about how little these women make, despite their long hours on the job. One former cheerleader, Erica Wilkins, even sued the squad in 2018, alleging unfair pay and claiming that she made about $7 per hour with no overtime pay and a flat rate of $200 per game. In total, that salary ended up being less than the yearly salary of the team's mascot, Rowdy. While that case was settled out of court in 2019, the squad's salaries have stayed low. But how much did the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders get paid before this hefty bump, and what will they make now? Here's everything to know about their salaries. NFL cheerleaders typically make around $150 per game, ESPN reported in 2017, making their yearly salaries about $22,500 per year, on average. The current federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour, which adds up to a yearly salary of $15,080. In comparison, NFL water boys usually make $53,000 per year and NFL mascots make $25,000 per season, NBC Sports Boston wrote in 2022. There are ways to earn more: Cheerleaders also receive anywhere from $50 to $75 for public appearances, according to the outlet. The Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders are actually one of the highest-paid squads. They previously earned about $15-20 per hour, or $500 per game. This made their yearly salary about $75,000, per NBC Sports Boston. "I would say I'm making, like, a substitute teacher [salary]," DCC alumna Kat Puryear said in a confessional on season one of the show. "I would say I'm making, like, Chick-fil-A worker that works full-time." Many of these women have other jobs, too. On season one, we see that first group leader Kelcey Wetterberg is a pediatric registered nurse, while Reece Allman worked at a flower shop. After the first season came out, America's Sweethearts director Greg Whiteley said that he "never" got a clear answer on how much a DCC made. "I think that's because it varies depending on how senior you are in the group," he told Glamour. "You may even get paid more if you're a group leader, though that was never clear to me." He did confirm that the DCC were paid more than other NFL cheerleaders. "As far as NFL cheerleaders go, I can say this with a high degree of confidence: the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are on the highest end of that pay scale," he said. "I've heard horror stories of what a typical NFL cheerleader makes, but the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders fall into a new category. None of them are rich. None of them are getting paid a ton, but it isn't the same dearth of payment that I think other NFL cheerleaders have to experience." If the DCC previously made about $75,000 per year, how much would their leader, director Kelli Finglass, have made in comparison? While there isn't a lot out there about her exact salary, she has a net worth of $1.5 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. That's still not clear. While the seventh episode of the season 2 notes that the women will receive a big pay boost, there are still no hard and fast numbers on what they used to make or how much they'll make in the future. If they previously made about $75,000 a year, and we're being told there's a 400 percent pay increase, that means their salaries will likely jump to about $300,000 annually—a massive change. Unfortunately, this isn't a new issue. Some NFL cheerleaders made as little as $5 per hour in 2014, according to PBS. In America's Sweethearts, archival footage shows that the DCC once made as little as $15 per game. "I think my game-day fee was $35, and we basically donated that back," Tina Kalina, who cheered for the DCC in 1989, said in America's Sweethearts. "These millennials, X-Gen—whatever they're called—they do look at it as a job, where as us old-timers look at it as more of a privilege." These low salaries are because NFL cheerleaders are independent contractors, not salaried workers, meaning teams are not necessarily required to pay the cheerleaders salaries in line with state or federal minimum wages, according to NBC Sports Boston. Charlotte Jones, Dallas Cowboys chief brand officer and daughter of the team's owner Jerry Jones, told Netflix cameras during season 1 that the cheerleaders "don't come here for the money." "They have a passion for dance. There are not a lot of opportunities in the field of dance to get to perform at an elite level," she said. "It is about being part of something bigger than themselves." Many NFL cheerleaders have turned to the legal system to fight for better salaries. In 2014, former Oakland Raiders cheerleader Lacy Thibodeaux-Fields filed the first class-action lawsuit against the NFL regarding cheerleaders' compensation, alleging wage theft and gender discrimination, per The Guardian. More lawsuits followed, including one from a Buffalo Bills cheerleader who claimed she received just $105 for an entire season after paying more than $600 for her uniform. By the fall of 2020, 10 of the NFL's 32 teams had been sued for wage theft, harassment, unsafe working conditions or discrimination, the outlet writes. Richard Dalrymple, former public relations head of the Dallas Cowboys, was accused of secretly filming cheerleaders in their dressing room in 2015. A fan also accused Dalrymple of taking lewd photos of Charlotte Jones, per Bleacher Report. The team settled the case for $2.4 million in 2022, with around $400,000 going to each of the four accusing cheerleaders, according to NBC News. Dalrymple retired in February 2022. Many of those lawsuits have been settled privately, per The Guardian. In the years since, many NFL cheerleading squads have made changes, including switching up their uniforms, adding men to their rosters, or even getting rid of the teams altogether. It's not clear at this point whether the new salary changes will cause other professional cheerleading squads to raise their salaries as well. The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are known for being one of the best and most well-known squads out there, and what they do isn't necessarily reflected in other organizations. Still, some other organizations may raise their rates in order to remain competitive.

I watch Netflix for a living — here are the 7 new shows and movies I'd stream this week
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. The list of new Netflix shows and movies this week has a major series premiere on it. And it's not the only thing on the streaming service this week that you'll want to keep an eye on. The series premiere in question? "The Waterfront," which is a new drama series set on the North Carolina coast. It has the right blend of comedy, melodrama and crime to be the next hit show on Netflix, so make sure to check it out when it arrives on June 19. Of course, some people love Netflix for its reality shows, and this week, a big name returns to the streaming service. "America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders" season 2 premieres on Wednesday, and it will bring plenty of unscripted drama and high stakes as the show searches for the next batch of Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. For more to watch, read on for my top picks, a full list of everything new on Netflix this week and the scoop on what's leaving Netflix this week. If you need more, check out our guide to everything new to Netflix in June or this new dystopian drama miniseries that arrived last week. "The Waterfront" stars Jake Weary as Cane Buckley. Scion of the Buckley fishing empire, things aren't going well for him and his family behind the scenes. Cane's parents, Harlan (Holt McCallany) and Mae (Maria Bello), are trying to fix things, but at the show's start, they're in danger of losing everything. That causes Harlan to make a mistake he can't come back from, and to turn to drug smuggling to make ends meet. That puts the Buckleys in bed with an up-and-coming drug lord, Grady (Topher Grace) and based on the trailer, that's something that surely won't end well. Watch on Netflix starting June 19 Netflix may have lots of original scripted shows and movies, but it also offers a ton of reality shows and documentaries. "America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders" combines both of those genres for a docuseries about rookie cheerleaders trying to make it onto the Dallas Cowboys cheer squad. Making the squad is difficult, and even if you make it, the demands are high and the wages are low. In season 2, just 23 out of 36 veteran Cowboys cheerleaders are returning, giving this season the largest rookie class of the past five years. Watch on Netflix starting June 18 The "Trainwreck" docuseries is an anthology series of documentaries, each investigating compelling events that often ended in disaster. In "Mayor of Mayhem," the compelling event in question is the 2010 mayoral campaign of Rob Ford, who ran for and shockingly won the Toronto election that year. But it's not just the campaign this documentary film will follow. It will also cover the subsequent scandals that plagued Ford's administration, including the accusations of substance abuse that were levied against the mayor during his time in office. Watch on Netflix starting June 17 Justin Willman first made his name as a magician-comedian back in 2018 with his Netflix original show "Magic for Humans." Now, he's back on the streaming service for his first-ever Netflix comedy special. But this won't be your typical comedy special. Yes, there will be jokes and bits about AI, screen time, and being a nerd in high school. However, there will also be magic tricks and illusions, including a bit where he smashes a woman's phone ... without mentioning he was going to do it first. Does that woman's phone survive this hour-long comedy special? You'll have to watch "Justin Willman: Magic Lover" to find out. Watch on Netflix starting June 17 "Somebody Feed Phil" is now one of Netflix's longest-running shows. It features "Everybody Loves Raymond" creator Philip Rosenthal traveling the world to discover new locations and new cuisine. Back for season 8, it doesn't look like Phil's changing up the formula, but he is going to new locations. Guatemala, Amsterdam, Tbilisi, Sydney, Adelaide, Boston, Las Vegas and San Sebastian all feature in season 8. He's also bringing some guests with him, including "Everybody Loves Raymond" stars Brad Garrett and Ray Romano and singer Donny Osmond. If you love a food travel show, "Somebody Feed Phil" season 8 is one to check out. Watch on Netflix starting June 18 Kerry Washington may have been in the news earlier this year for "Shadow Force," but her most famous show or movie to date is still probably "Scandal." This Shonda Rhimes political thriller was a massive hit on ABC, and starred Washington as crisis manager Olivia Pope. At the show's start, she's in charge of an elite crisis management firm, but she used to work for the president of the United States, Fitzgerald Grant III (Tony Goldwyn). That's a relationship that gets her into trouble more than once as the show goes on, and trust me, this show has no shortage of drama. You can stream the entire series starting this week, and it might just become your next binge-watch. Watch on Netflix starting June 17 "The Intern" stars Robert De Niro as 70-year-old retired widower Ben Whittaker. He has grown bored with retirement and decides to rejoin the rat race as a senior intern at About The Fit, a fast-fashion startup in Brooklyn. As a former executive, he's overqualified and quickly impresses people. That gets him paired with the company's CEO, Jules Ostin (Anne Hathaway). Initially, she's wondering why she even needs a senior intern, but as he begins to improve her work life, he soon becomes indispensable to her. As a Nancy Meyers movie with two incredible lead actors, the bar is set pretty high with "The Intern." Whether or not it clears that bar is subject to debate, but the floor is also really high with so much talent involved in this comedy drama, so I'll be shocked if you don't at least enjoy it. Watch on Netflix starting June 22 JUNE 16 "The Last Witch Hunter" JUNE 17 "Justin Willman: Magic Lover" (Netflix comedy special) Sleight-of-hand sorcery. Mischievous mind games.

‘Ginny And Georgia' Finally Dethroned In Netflix's Top 10 List By A New Show
Ginny and Georgia Outside of a brief brush with the WWE, Ginny and Georgia has remained on top of Netflix's top 10 list for a full two weeks since it released on June 5. Fans waited years for it to return, and they were not going to miss its arrival at last. But now, at long last, Ginny and Georgia has fallen down Netflix's top 10 list, dethroned by not just one but two new shows. It's now in third, and second place is America's Sweethearts: The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, the reality series following the auditions for the famed cheerleading team and their performances and drama behind the scenes. This is season 2, which my wife has already watched, and I'm struck by how little drama there is behind the scenes, as all the girls feel like best friends, for the most part. Top 10 The new number one show on Netflix is The Waterfront. Here's the synopsis: This very much reminds me of a previous Netflix series, Bloodlines, and then sprinkling in a bit of Ozark as well. I suppose, given that most people liked those shows, Netflix is trying to find another hit in that vein, as neither are airing anymore. I am interested in the series not because of its concept but because of its cast. First, it stars Holt McCallany, Netflix royalty as one of the two stars of Mindhunter. In giving interviews about The Waterfront, he made news that it was possible that Mindhunter may return for a third season in the form of three two-hour movies, which would essentially be six episodes, but it's all down to David Fincher. In another lead role is Melissa Benoist, who was the CW's Supergirl for multiple years, and she'll always have a special place in my heart for that, even as she's about to be replaced by Milly Alcock in the DCU (star of another big Netflix show in the past month, Sirens). I also know Humberly González, as she played the lead role in a recent video game, Star Wars Outlaws. Oh, and she's in 18 episodes of Ginny and Georgia, the show she just dethroned here alongside her cast. It remains to be seen how The Waterfront will perform. A top spot debut like this is a big deal. It has a 67% critic score, but that's only with six reviews in. There isn't enough data for an audience score yet, so we will wait and see. Follow me on Twitter, YouTube, Bluesky and Instagram. Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.
