The Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Eyes Are Forever Instant Eye Palette has officially launched as the 2021 Charlotte Tilbury holiday palette, and it’s seriously pretty.
Every Christmas, Charlotte Tilbury launches a new Instant Eye Palette, and they’re always extremely popular, and I had to order the Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Eyes Are Forever Instant Eye Palette this morning, as soon as it launched, as the shades are stunning.

The Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Eyes Are Forever Instant Eye Palette is £60 / $75, and includes twelve powder eyeshadows. This year’s design of the palette has an amazing matte black finish, with the same starburst design as previous years. I love how smokey and grungy it looks, which complements the ‘smokey’ theme of the palette.
The Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Eyes Are Forever Instant Eye Palette has the twelve shades laid out in four sets of three shades, just like all of the Instant Eye Palettes. Each trio of shadows has a ‘look’ name, and are designed to be used together to create a cohesive eyeshadow looks.
You can obviously use whichever shade however you like, but I like that the palette has been designed to give you four different eyeshadows looks in one. Inside this palette, you get the following eyeshadow looks;
- Love Eyes
- Power Eyes
- Happy Eyes
- Confident Eyes
The Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Eyes Are Forever Instant Eye Palette combines 6 magical formulas, from magic matte and soft shimmer to metallic sparkle and fluid metal to intensify, define and illuminate the look of your eyes this Holiday season.
When the Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Eyes Are Forever Instant Eye Palette was first sneak peeked on social media, there were a lot of comments on how similar the shades were to previous palettes. It’s definitely not a unique colour story, but it’s still beautiful regardless.
There was a green trio in last year’s palette; the Bejewelled Eyes To Hypnotise Palette, and there’s a green trio inside this palette too, but they are different variations of green, and I think this year’s palette is even more beautiful than last year’s palette.
Look how beautiful the swatches of the Charlotte Tilbury Smokey Eyes Are Forever Instant Eye Palette are? I’m so excited for my palette to arrive, and I’ll be sure to get my review post up as soon as I can. It’s a gorgeous palette, and it’s officially available right now.
