Move over Rhode – it looks like there is a new must-have accessory in town: beauty-themed phone grips.

Hailey Bieber’s brand pioneered the concept of turning beauty products into a lifestyle statement back in 2024, when its phone case which holds the brand’s peptide lip product went viral.

Now, Charlotte Tilbury is the latest beauty brand creating buzz online for a must-have accessory, this time via a mini powder compact that doubles up as a phone grip.

Social media users have gone wild on social media for the gold-winged phone grip, which features a travel-sized Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finishing Powder in it.

A small circular cut-out at the base of the grip allows for optional charm attachments, encouraging personalisation and self-expression, the brand said.

As the beauty sector evolves rapidly, the Cosmetics Business Innovation Awards aim to highlight the ideas redefining ingredients, packaging, sustainability, digital tech and consumer experience across the industry. Entries open now!

 

The accessory is currently only available exclusively in China as a PR gift, and as a complimentary gift with purchase, the brand confirmed to Cosmetics Business.
