Elf jumbo lip gloss stick review năm 2024

The Essential Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks are hands down one of my favorite e.l.f. lip products. I don’t know why it’s taken me this long to write a review.

The Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks are widely available at Target and Kmart stores, though not all shades may be stocked.

Packaging

Each gloss is packaged in a white, matte plastic tube and features a twist-up bottom so you don’t have to use a pencil sharpener. A clear cap protects the gloss while the other end is colored in a similar shade as the gloss. Some shades are more accurate than others, but overall they’re surprisingly close.

The stick format makes precise application a breeze.

Not sure if this is a problem, but I’ve not had any issues with the product breaking.

Formulation

e.l.f. calls this a lip gloss, presumably due to the sheer consistency, though I’d probably just call it a light weight lipstick.

I adore the Jumbo Lip Gloss Stick formula. It is very moisturizing. No need to put anything on underneath; just apply and go.

I didn’t realize I’d buy more JLGSs, hence the used product photo. :/

Since they are glosses, all apply sheer. Some glosses have large glitter flakes–that are noticeable when applied–while others shades are cremes.

The glosses do contain a mild minty flavor that some may find objectionable.

Shades

There is a good assortment of shades to give all undertones something to work with. So far I own five shades, reviewed below.

Swatches of the e.l.f. Essential Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks

In the Nude [Creme]

Unfortunately, this is little different than putting concealer on my lips. If you were a fan of e.l.f. Minerals Natural Nymph, you should also like this shade, because they are nearly identical.

Pink Umbrellas [Creme]

This shade is a true pink with cool undertones. I like to pair it with green or purple eyeshadows.

It is one of the few true pinks that actually works with my skin tone.

Tiki Torches [Glitter]

The coral shade. A great warm shade for summer with gold glitter.

If the thought of wearing tangerine lipstick makes you balk, try Tiki Torches instead. It’s peachy enough to be flattering, but without the overt orange overtones of tangerine.

Summer Nights [Glitter]

It doesn’t seem it, but this shade is nearly identical to Tiki Torches, albeit not as coral. A sheer neutral with lots of gold sparkles.

It’s probably the shade I use most often.

Sangria Starters [Creme]

Sangria Starters is a wine shade.

This is the darkest shade of the Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks that I own. Fortunately, it is sheer enough that I can usually pull it off. It’s great when I want something a little more dramatic than normal.

Final Thoughts

Pros: Moisturizing, good spectrum of shades, economically priced Cons: Could use more shades, mint flavor may be off-putting to some

As I’ve said throughout the review, I really love the e.l.f. Essential Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks.

The e.l.f. Essential line is notorious for being hit or miss, but this product is definitely a winner. For $2 a piece, I highly recommend you visit your nearest Target to give ’em a try, or stock up during the next e.l.f. sale.

The Jumbo Lip Gloss Stick comes in a white matte chubby pencil like packaging. It twists up/down so you do not have to use pencil sharpener. It has clear cap so you can easily find the shade you are after. The end of pencil is coloured in a similar shade as the gloss. It has sweet peppermint fragrance that fades away after application. It does not cause any tingling sensation on my lips. This lip gloss sticks glide smoothly on lips and gives shiny finish. All four are nicely pigmented and also buildable. Apply one layer to achieve a light wash of color, or apply more to get a richer, intense color payoff.

These lip glosses are so moisturising that no need to put anything on underneath. Just apply it and go, that’s it. I only got one cremy shade rest three have glitter flakes in them, that are noticeable when applied. They do not feel sticky on lips as they are not lip glosses which makes them even better. The color pay off is really good. They last average 4-5 hours on my lips even after drinking then have to re-apply.

Flirty & Girly is vivid fuchsia shade with heavy shimmers in it. It has frosty finish. I really like this bright colour with shimmers. It is showstopper shade for me. The shimmers are pretty prominent, and although they do feel textured on the lips, they do not feel uncomfortable on by any means. This is a great shade for a night out.

Pink Umbrella is a true pink with a cool undertone. This is one of my favorites! It gives a natural looking pop of soft pink to the lips. This shade goes with any look. It also has some silver glitters in it.

Tiki Torches is a coral shade with gold glitters in it. It is perfect warm shade for summer. This one I use as eyeshadow too, and it looks beautiful.

Movie Star is a berry red with cream finish. It is not loud colour. It gives sheer red lips.

Overall, they are very affordable Lip Gloss Sticks. The lasting power is good. You can pick few shades if you are looking for a moisturizing gloss that feels comfortable on the lips and packs a punch in the pigment department. If you like sheer colour then I would recommend e.l.f. Studio Conditioning Lip Balms as they hydrate the lips and give beautiful looking tinted lips.

Is the elf lip gloss sticky?

Why you'll love it: Gives your lips a brilliant shine. Nourishing, non-sticky formula.

What is the difference between lip gloss and lip stick?

A lipstick is known to add colour to your lips whereas a lip gloss is meant to give your lips a shiny finish. For example, if you see a transfer proof lipstick, it is creamier and has a matte finish which lasts on your lips all day long. Whereas a lip gloss is more silky and sticky and it does not stay on for too long.

Does the elf lip plumper sting?

It stings a little but I did not see a huge difference in plumping. I will still wear it because of the color. I'm not all glitz and glam, I typically keep a natural look to my makeup and this gives a light plumping effect and nice shine.
