It applies creamily and smoothly, with an opaque and highly pigmented finish that shows up vibrantly even on deeply pigmented lips.
ConsThe Charlotte shade seems to differ from the others, as it has a more glowy and luminous feel compared to the rest. When applied lightly, it can appear slightly uneven. The formula also has significant transfer and does not have great longevity.

Diva tends to look quite dark burgundy, but this one seems to have a bit more of a reddish tone (based on my lips).
ConsIt's not the most long-lasting product. There is a bit of emphasis on dry patches, but with proper care, it can be covered up.
TipI personally tend to do a lot of full-lip looks, and I found that applying a thin layer of Charlotte first and then lightly blending in some MAC Diva in the center works really nicely, especially for this time of year when it pairs well with coats.

ConsI personally don't like glossy lips, so it's not great. The longevity also seems average, and it wears off quickly on the inner lips.
TipIt applies moisturizing, so you don't need to use a lip balm, and it's easy to apply casually.

Additionally, the long-lasting formula meant I didn't need to reapply it often, and the color remained vibrant. Not only did it suit fair skin tones, but it also made my darker complexion appear more radiant and natural-looking, which I was very pleased with. The sleek, magnetic case has a satisfying 'click' when opening and closing, giving it an irresistible, playful charm. :D
ConsThe lipstick applies smoothly, but the formula is somewhat matte, making it feel a bit drying on the lips. As a result, it can accentuate flaky skin and fine lines, especially when my lips are not in the best condition. Additionally, while the color has excellent staying power, it tends to transfer heavily when drinking from cups or glasses, which is a bit disappointing. The lip case also feels like it's prone to the lettering wearing off quickly, and it picks up fingerprints easily, making it look dirty faster. The angular, heavy design also makes it bulge out in small makeup pouches, which can be inconvenient.
TipCompared to MAC's Hang-Up in a similar shade, Charlotte's lipstick has a stronger, juicier red undertone. It's a lovely burgundy color. :) As someone with quite dark skin, I'm always cautious when choosing lipsticks, but I find that this burgundy shade suits my complexion much better than the more common orange or coral shades, which can sometimes look too stark. That's why I often repurchase this color. Charlotte's shade is also very flattering on deeper skin tones, so don't be afraid to give it a try! If your lips are dry, be sure to apply a lip balm first, blot with a tissue to remove excess oil, and then apply the lipstick. Or, you can generously apply a lip balm like Vaseline before bed, and gently remove any flaky skin with a cotton swab the next morning - this will help the lipstick wear much better and last longer. As someone with fuller lips, I find that applying the lipstick all over can look too heavy, so I like to use a makeup sponge to dab and sheer out the color, creating a nice gradient effect.
