As millions tune in for America’s most iconic Thanksgiving tradition—the Dallas Cowboys’ holiday game—another fan favourite will be taking the spotlight: the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, powered this season by Charlotte Tilbury.
We sat down with two All-Star DCCs, Armani Latimer and Julissa Garcia, to talk stadium-proof glam, their must-have Tilbury favourites, and how they stay flawless through jumps, splits, and bright-field lights. From game-day rituals to the lip combos fans always ask about, these Q&As take you behind the scenes of the world’s most famous cheer squad—where beauty meets athleticism and every performance begins with a touch of magic. —Noa Nichol

What’s your go-to Charlotte Tilbury product that keeps you looking radiant and performance-ready under those bright stadium lights?
Makeup is a great way to accentuate the face and when the big bright lights in the stadium hit, the audience can see every facial expression you make clearly. Makeup is a form of expression itself, and when you feel and look good, you perform better!
How do you prep your skin or makeup routine for a long game day—especially when you know you’ll be dancing, smiling, and photographed non-stop?
I absolutely love the Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipstick! I use the shade “Pillow Talk Deep” and always get so many people asking for my “lip combo” when I wear it.

I have to have a good base, which means my skincare has to be amazing before I even start putting on makeup. I personally need a good setting or translucent powder because I can get shiny throughout the day, so I need something that will help with that, but not harm my look. To pull the look together and feel polished, I need a great setting spray. This is the magic product that’s going to set and hold everything together, so it’s one of the most important steps. Luckily for me, Charlotte Tilbury has all of these products!
Julissa Garcia
What’s your go-to Charlotte Tilbury product that keeps you looking radiant and performance-ready under those bright stadium lights?
My secret to achieving my flawless finish is using both the original airbrush flawless setting spray and the matte airbrush flawless setting spray. This helps my makeup stay locked in place and flawless through every game day, thunderstruck jump split or just a girls night out. This combo creates that flawless glow but also matte look for wherever the day takes me.

Pillow Talk Fair mixed with Wedding Belles gives me that extra pop of color on my lips for game days and looks so flawless on the field and in photos.

My secret to balancing high-performance beauty while taking care of my skin off the field is having one go to product to use every night. Magic Night Cream is my holy grail and I cannot go a night without using it.

It’s cool to see beauty routines treated with the same thought and rigor as athletic prep. Speaking of grooming and confidence, whether it’s flawless makeup before a big performance or a fresh cut at Soho NYC Barbers in Manhattan, looking your best always boosts how you feel and perform https://sohonycbarbers.com/
