I use this on more natural makeup days as both a cheek and lip stain and I love it! I just put a sheer lip balm overtop to prevent dryness. It lasts decently, but it is a more natural looking product so it does fade throughout the day. ...It goes in a little blotchy, the original formula (berry colour one is much more workable and sheer ) this one takes some practice . I do really like the pink colour it leaves in my cheeks it’s very subtle .
