Halim v. Charlotte Tilbury

Your legal rights are affected whether you act or don’t act. Read this website and the Notice carefully.

A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit called Halim v. Charlotte Tilbury Beauty, Inc. No.2022C11832 (Cir. Ct. Cook Cnty. Ill.), pending in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. The lawsuit alleges that the Defendant, Charlotte Tilbury Beauty, Inc, violated Illinois’s Biometric Information Privacy Act, 740 ILCS 14/1 et seq. (“BIPA”), by collecting, storing, and using the biometric facial geometry of individuals who may have used a Charlotte Tilbury Beauty beauty tech tool or other virtual try on tool without first providing the requisite disclosures or obtaining the requisite consent. The Defendant contests these claims and denies it violated the BIPA.

You are included in the Settlement Class if you used a beauty tech tool or any another virtual try on tool on the Charlotte Tilbury Beauty website and/or mobile application, regardless as to the manner in which such tools were accessed, including but not limited to, “Charlotte’s Virtual Try On,” “Pro Skin Analysis,” “Foundation Shade Finder,” “Complexion Edit,” “Highlight Shade Finder,” “How To Apply,” “Blush Finder,” and “Skin Reader,” in the state of Illinois at any time between December 1, 2019 and August 31, 2023.

If the Court approves the Settlement, Defendants will pay $2,925,000 into a Settlement Fund, which will be used to pay valid and timely claims, settlement administration expenses, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, and an incentive award to the Class Representative.
