I’m not sure what to think about these. I like the sheen, but the pigmentation seems a bit light, and most of the color pairings wouldn’t work for me. I’ll be interested to see what you make of them, Christine!

Oooh, some pretty colors here. These might be nice during winter, when my face is dry, but not sure about the staying power. I can’t find this product on MAC site. So is this for cheeks and lips?

I’m intrigued! It seems to be on a sheer side on things, which is what I prefer in a cream texture. Toning down over-applied pigmented creams or liquids is a nightmare for me. Hope this is easy to work with, lasts and doesn’t move around like Casual Colour. I have this dream where I only take stick products on my travel trips. Let’s see.

I purchased several of the Bite Multistix based on your reviews, Christine. I wasn’t planning to use them on my eyes so wasn’t too concerned that they would be creasing. I have been able to apply them very lightly to my mobile lid as long as I don’t go up to the crease. I use them sparingly for that application. I love them for cheeks and lips to I look forward to seeing these. Thank you again for all you do.

i like the idea. i hope they are for lips too, i like the sheen colour.
on cheeks, i am curious to read how they blend and how the formula performs overall.

These look nice for dry skin but my skin eats this sort of texture for breakfast! despite being combination-skinned. I dunt expect then to last as well as the Bite multistick but it’ll be interesting to see how they review.

Not impressed. The pigmentation does not look good in most of these.
For the price, I would definitely try another brand, like Bite or even NYX sticks.
