Some celebrity beauty collabs just make sense, and this one is pure Hollywood magic. Today, Charlotte Tilbury announced that global music icon Christina Aguilera is the face of its new holiday campaign, which launches with 25 unique gifts.
Though we can’t believe it’s been 25 years since Aguilera’s version of “Lady Marmalade” topped the charts, the timing is perfect for the Grammy winner to step into Charlotte Tilbury’s glowy spotlight. “Christina is the icon, the voice, the showgirl—a record-breaking superstar and one of the most fearless, transformative beauty icons of our time!” says Tilbury. “Christina has always understood the power of beauty, music and performance to transform how you feel. She has reinvented herself through many unforgettable eras, always pushing boundaries, owning her individuality and inspiring millions around the world to express themselves with confidence.”
Tilbury’s Hollywood Holiday Wonderland campaign draws directly from the theatrical, burlesque-inspired world of Aguilera’s 2001 “Lady Marmalade” performance. In the video, they even dance to the song together—a love letter to millennials if you ask me.
Aguilera says she loves gifting beauty at the holidays, which is another reason this collab fits. “Makeup, skin care and fragrance can feel so personal—you’re choosing something because you want that person to feel good. I think that’s what gifting should really be about: making someone you love feel special,” she says. “I love the holidays. For me, it’s really about being home and spending time with my family. We go all in on decorating—the house gets super festive in November and December! I love creating that whole atmosphere and making it feel magical. And I love getting dressed up. If there’s a holiday party, I’m definitely embracing the theme: golds, silvers, reds, sparkle...I love it all!”
