ILIA Humble Me Lipstick Review


I have been on the search for a natural nude lipstick. It is often difficult to find the perfect true nude lipstick for various skintones without it being chalky or dark. One of my favorite nude lipsticks was MAC Peachstock and I really wanted to find a more natural alternative to that shade. I picked up ILIA's lipstick in Humble Me and it really reminded me of my old favorite.

ILIA's Humble Me is a matte true nude lipstick, the coverage is semi-opaque but is can build to be fully opaque. When compared with MAC Peachstock, ILIA's Humble Me is slightly warmer. The two are virtually identical when worn on lips.

ingredients:
Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil*, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil*, Jojoba (Simmondsia Chinensis) Seed Oil*, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil*, Beeswax (Cera Alba)*, Triisostearyl Citrate, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter*, Manihot Esculenta (Tapioca) Starch *, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Rosa Canina (Rose Hip) Fruit Oil, Sage (Salvia Officinalis) Leaf Extract, Tocopherol. May Contain: Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxide (CI 77499, CI 77492, CI 77491), Red 7 CI15850, Red 28 CI45410, Yellow 5 CI19140. *Certified Organic Ingredients




I have very pigmented lips and my top and bottom lip are different shades. When I wore this lipstick on its own I was able to still see the difference on both my lips. However, when I blanked out my lips with my foundation and then applied Humble Me, I got the perfect true nude lip. In the picture below I am wearing ILIA's Humble Me using that method.



I really love this color and plan on purchasing more ILIA lipsticks in the future. Are there any other lipstick shades or brands that you like? Please comment and let me know :)
