Charlotte Tilbury Super Nude, Super Starlet, Super You Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches
Super Nude
Charlotte Tilbury Super Nude Kissing Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a light-medium, rosy brown with subtle, warm undertones and a glossy, cream finish. It had rich color payoff in a single layer, which applied evenly and smoothly across my lips without dragging.
The texture was lightweight, lightly creamy with a touch of tackiness, which kept it on better but wasn’t uncomfortably tacky. It stayed on nicely for four and a half hours and felt moisturizing over time.

Formula Overview
$37.00/0.12 oz. - $308.33 Per Ounce
The Kissing formula is supposed to be pigmented and luminous, while also being hydrating. It has a creamier, lightweight consistency that's comfortable to wear and to apply with a moderately hydrating formula to back it. I find that some of the creamier shades can sit in my lip lines a bit, but it really depends on the shade on how noticeable it is in person. The wear ranges from three to five hours (reds and the like). There's a faint, sweet vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Super You
Charlotte Tilbury Super You Matte Revolution Lipstick ($34.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a light, rosy brown with subtle, warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had mostly opaque pigmentation, though it needed a second layer in certain areas to reach full opacity. The consistency was more velvety and silicone-like, so it had a very thin and lightweight feel but didn’t feel clingy, thankfully.
It wasn’t as forgiving of lip texture or lip lines, and it seemed to pull into some of my deeper lip lines over the four hours it lasted for. The formula felt lightly moisturizing while worn.

Formula Overview

The formula is supposed to have "long-lasting color" that's "buildable" with "glowing pigments" that give the "illusion of wider, fuller lips." Some shades are buildable while others are fairly pigmented in one stroke. The consistency was more velvety, lightweight, and thin without being clingy or drying over time. I found that some shades were flattering on, as they didn't emphasize lip texture or get into my lip lines, while other shades gravitated into my lip lines. They wore between three and five hours and were typically non-drying. There was no discernible scent or taste.

Totally digging Super Nude. I do not have a dupe. Seriously! 😳
Super nude looks would look beautiful on you, Wednesday. Super flattering to your skin tone.
Love the shade Super Nude! Also, this whole release looks so pretty on you – the red brings out the green in your eyes.
Thank you, Kira!
I’m not typically a big CT fan, but I do think this is one of her collections I have appreciated most.
I’m starting to become a CT fan! Her formula lately is on point!
I really love the look of Super Nude on you, Christine. I am not a nude lover, since I have such pigmented lips, nudes change to something not attractive on me.
Really love how rich Super Starlet looks! It just exudes pure glamour and class. I believe it’s different enough from anything else I have to excuse my getting it, too.
Super Scarlett is my favourite here, a stunningly perfect shade for me. And I actually think that Super Nude is a pretty good everyday shade – like a MLBB kind of shade too.
The collection really works for you Christine – your eye look and the lipsticks. It looks lovely on you.
I never thought I could wear red until I met Super Scarlet (and Velvet Dragon by Lisa Eldridge.) Something about the copper orange tones in both of these lipsticks suit my skin color. The Super Scarlet is my favorite though because it feels so moisturizing on my lips. Since it is a limited offering I should probably buy another. Seriously, I’m in my 50s and the is the FIRST shade I’ve tried, and I’ve tried many, that I can wear. It’s an A++ for me.
I know it’s ridiculous to buy an expensive lip product when I’m wearing a mask all day, but I really want Super Starlet. I adore the KISSING formula and the color is gorgeous.
