Love Flame

Charlotte Tilbury Love Flame Limitless Lucky Lips Charlotte Tilbury Love Flame Limitless Lucky Lips ($34.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a muted, deep orange-red with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had opaque color coverage that applied evenly across my lips without dragging. The texture was smooth, velvety, and very lightweight in feel without emphasizing imperfections, though it wasn’t smoothing so I’d still recommend exfoliating prior to wearing this type of formula. It wore well for five hours, which was solid wear but nowhere near the 16 hours claimed.

Formula Overview

$34.00/0.05 oz. - $680.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to be "super-matte" with "high impact" and "transfer-proof bold colour" that "lasts for up to 16 hours." They were very pigmented and velvety-smooth with a very lightweight feel but a denser, more velvety feel when being applied initially. They applied evenly and were fairly forgiving of lip texture/imperfections and didn't pill as some silicone-heavy formulas have for me. The high silicone in the formula gave it that velvety feel that glided across my lips but didn't feel traditionally emollient or "wet" like other lipsticks.

I really don't understand the need to make such a long wear time claim; 16-hours would be intensely long-wearing for some of the longest wearing formulas in the market, e.g. liquid lipstick that dries down to a matte finish. The formula was long-wearing by general standards, but no, it did not last anywhere near 16 hours! Most shades lasted between five and six hours with even fading/wear, but they made it past a meal just so-so. The formula was more non-drying than it was drying or hydrating.

There was a sweet, vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Red Wishes

Charlotte Tilbury Red Wishes Limitless Lucky Lips Charlotte Tilbury Red Wishes Limitless Lucky Lips ($34.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a rich, ruby red with strong, cool undertones and a matte finish. It had mostly opaque pigmentation that applied evenly, but the more velvety, silicone-heavy texture wasn’t as forgiving of lip texture/lip lines (despite exfoliating prior) as other shades in the range were. It seemed more prone to separating along lip lines and clumping around lip texture. It lasted well for six hours, left a stain behind, and felt non-drying.
