Dry, waxy, and glittery. 80s vibes...This does not give a plumping effect at all, if your lips are thin it’s going to make them look even thinner and the vibe is very 80s glitter. It’s not really worth it for me but if that’s your thing, there’s an honest review!

I absolutely LOVE the ILIA multi stick I received free from pinch me How great is it to have 1 product that can be used for various makeups cheeks and lips I love the shiney finish not too much, but just enough color and it's long lasting a smudge Free lipstick and check color. ...I have worn this with and without setting with a powder blush on top, and both applications have lasted 8 plus hours with it being in the eighties outside.

Great on skin, but good with makeup...I did not like that if I put makeup on, it makes the makeup clumpy & comes off....I allowed my elderly Mom to try it as well so we both used it twice a day, meaning four uses per day multiplied by three weeks (over EIGHTY uses). We've barely tapped into the bottle so that's why I believe the price is justified.
