e.l.f Jumbo Lip Gloss Stick Review

I puchased a couple of these through Iherb for I think $2 or so each, in the colours In the Nude and Pink Umbrellas.They smell and taste like mint!. They are both smooth and glide on easily. To me they both look better if applied the smoothed out with a fingertip. The nude is a safe nude and does not give a concealer lip look thank goodness.They last for quite a while and are not sticky. Not bad for a cheapy treat.

I paided $2/$3 off iherb for mine, I got it in the shade Nude. Its a very nice subtle nude thats super glosses and not to sticky like some glosses tend to be. Large amount of product for a small price and lasts ages, I do find it needs to be smoothed out a bit to get an even coat of colour as it builds around the lip line, but lots of products do that.

I got this because I have a bit of an obsession with lip crayons. The short of it is if you are used to decent products don't bother. It's not the nicest formula to put on and it does not stay where it should for very long at all. I didn't even wear it the whole day I just could not be bothered reapplying it every half an hour.

Lip crayons are something I carry around in my work bag a lot as they are super no fuss and easy to wear at work. I picked a few of these up as they were so inexpensive (I got them from the ELF site directly).

ELF is a brand I love and a few of their products are my holy grail products. This, however, was a massive miss.

Despite the fact that these are said to look like a gloss, the pigmentation is almost non existent. If you want something that has less pigmentation than Maybelline's Baby Lips then perhaps you will like the pigmentation of these. However I was looking for something that had more pigment and the fact that these are so sheer disappointed me.

Also, I found that these didn't moisturise my lips. Initially this felt ok on my lips (albeit slightly oily), but after wearing it for about 30-60 minutes my lips felt drier than they did before I applied this...

I wouldn't repurchase these at all and I would recommend skipping them. Even though they are inexpensive they are a waste of money.

I’m a huge fan of lip crayon-style products, and so I added a few shades of these to an iherb order a while ago. Unfortunately I’ve been super underwhelmed by these, and I’m actually going to throw them away once I’ve written this review (no use having them take up space, and I don’t think they’re good enough to pass on to someone else).

These come in the standard twist-up crayon packaging: a white pencil casing with a tinted bottom (corresponding to the shade), and a clear lid. It’s not fancy, but it’s functional and in no way offensive.

I find the texture really weird. It’s slightly waxy and grainy, and drags a bit when I apply it. The pigmentation is very sheer. That wouldn’t bother me if it was buildable, but I find that if I try to build it up the colour starts to ‘pill’ together, and looks really chunky and patchy.

In terms of wear, these last for about an hour at most on me. I don’t find them in any way moisturising, and they look progressively worse as time goes on. The lightest shade I have, Pink Lemonade, is the worst: it actually starts to clump together and looks like I have flakes of product just sitting on my lips. So unattractive! :P

Ultimately, I think that these are really bad quality, which is a shame. E.l.f. usually has really nice products, but this one is a huge miss. I wouldn’t recommend, and I won’t be purchasing any more of these.

I recently got this in the shade Tiki Torches don't know why everyone else seems to hate this because I'm in love with it! I love the sparkly gold shimmers in it that make it a 'golden red' that reminds me of fire and sunsets. The crayon itself feels like a dryish lip balm rather than a gloss, which I'm more than happy about. It's smooth enough to glide on when I apply it but not oily feeling. The pigmentation is like a colored lip balm, a pale crimson kind of color, which fits with my natural lip color perfectly. It's lasting power probably isn't the best but I have nothing against reapplying it throughout the day. Even when it starts to dry out, it still feels ok and not clumpy or sticky. I don't really like the packaging since it looks quite cheap but I suppose it's what's on the inside that counts. It does have a slight plastic like smell but I only picked it up when I sniffed it (hoping for some nice scent).

This product really worked for me for some reason and I'll probably be buying it again in my next iherb order.

I bought this in Pink Umbrellas, which is a sheer mid tone pink so it should work for almost everyone. It's not a particularly special color, so it might be good for everyday when you need a little something on the lips but don't need to spend a lot of time thinking about it. Nice if you are looking for a sheer tinted gloss that is portable. It's a fat lip pencil that twists up when you need more product. Not much color payoff for this shade. Nice budget option.

I purchased this on sale for about $5, really affordable. I really liked this initially when I started using it. Jumbo lip gloss stick is easy to use. The wand is retractable. Has a light gloss shine but applies like a lipstick. The only real problem I had with this is after awhile I didn't like the shade. In saying that I would definitely repurchase but in a different colour.

I also had this in Movie Star. Loved this shade, does kind of stain the lips as the colour fades off so still looks nice.
