Whatever shade you choose, you will love it. It gives a beautiful shine to the lips.

Gives a beautiful shine to lips, and they look a little bigger, but if you don't like the plumping effect skip this. When you put it on your lips, it's like you are eating chili pepper, but after a few minutes, it's gone.

Great to fix your brows when you don't wear any makeup. It's not so strong, and you need to redo it after some time. But I like to use it when I choose not to wear makeup, just this one, mascara and gloss.
