Full details

FAQs

Can I use this on my eyelids?

While designed for cheeks and lips, some users have successfully used it as a cream eyeshadow base. However, it is not specifically formulated for the delicate eye area and may crease.

How many shades are available?

The ILIA Beauty Multi-Stick is available in 12 shades, offering a variety of colors to suit different skin tones and preferences.

Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?

ILIA Beauty products are generally formulated with a focus on skin-friendly ingredients. However, if you have very sensitive skin, it's always recommended to do a patch test first.

How long does the product typically last on the skin?

Wear time can vary depending on skin type, application method, and external factors like heat and humidity. On average, expect a natural-looking flush for 4-6 hours, potentially longer with touch-ups.

Can I mix shades together?

Yes, the creamy formula is designed to be mixed, matched, and layered, allowing you to create custom shades and finishes.

Does it contain SPF?

This specific product description does not mention SPF content. Please check the product packaging for detailed ingredient information.

What is the finish of this multi-stick?

The multi-stick is available in both natural and luminous finishes. The natural finish provides a sheer veil of color, while the luminous finish adds a subtle radiance.

Troubleshooting

Product is difficult to blend and looks streaky.

Ensure skin is well-moisturized before application. Try warming the product on the back of your hand first, then dabbing and blending onto the skin with fingertips or a damp sponge.

Color fades quickly.

For longer wear on lips, consider applying a lip liner first and blotting. On cheeks, ensure skin is clean and free of heavy oils. For extended wear, a light dusting of setting powder over the cream can help.

The twist-up mechanism is stuck or won't retract.

Gently try to twist it back. If it's difficult, ensure no product has hardened around the base. Clean the base with a dry cloth. Avoid forcing the mechanism.

Product feels sticky or heavy.

Apply a thinner layer and ensure you are blending thoroughly. For cheeks, try applying to the apples and blending upwards towards the temples. Avoid applying too close to the nose area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

No setup is required. The product is ready for immediate use upon purchase.

Compatibility:

Suitable for most skin types, including normal, dry, and combination. Those with very oily skin may prefer to set with a powder or use sparingly.

Care:

  • To Use: Twist up the product gently. Avoid twisting up too much at once, as it can be fragile.
  • To Clean: After application, gently wipe the tip of the stick with a clean tissue if needed to remove excess product or debris. Do not use water or harsh cleaners.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to maintain freshness and prevent drying.
  • Application Tips: For best results, apply to moisturized skin. Warm the product on the back of your hand before applying if you find it difficult to blend directly on the skin.
