The price is so expensive and honestly not worth the price however it’s a beautiful gloss. It’s not sticky but hydrating. I have shimmer peach and the colour is beautiful. Does it plump? I don’t really think so. It doesn’t burn or feel minty like a plumper usually does and I don’t notice my lips getting bigger. I top it up every 2-3 hours? The gloss is nice and shiny and feels so good on my lips. Show more
