6Charles' [=YouTube=] channel was created in December 2015; as of 2020, it has 23.6 million subscribers, making him the most subscribed male beauty guru channel on the platform. He became the first male ambassador for [=CoverGirl=] and also opened the second Morphe Cosmetics store in Birmingham, UK.

8Due to his popularity in younger demographics and his relatively clean image, his videos are frequently used by traditional media stars to "cross over" into new media. To date, he has made videos with names like Music/{{Zendaya}}, Music/LilNasX, [[Series/KeepingUpWithTheKardashians Kylie Jenner]], and Creator/KathyGriffin.

10Charles has been embroiled in several controversies during his career. He got into a public feud with fellow beauty [=YouTuber=] Creator/TatiWestbrook, received allegations of sexting several 15- to 17-year-olds (which he did admit to but denied knowing their ages at the time; this cost him his partnership with Morphe and led to [=YouTube=] temporarily demonetizing his channel), and was sued by his former producer Kelly Rocklein for allegedly underpaying her (which he has denied).
