Blush Glow
Makeup by Mario Blush Glow MoistureGlow Plumping Lip Serum ($22.00 for 0.08 oz.) is a medium, pinky-coral with a creamy, glossy finish.
- Semi-sheer to medium, somewhat buildable coverage
- Very emollient, like a gel-cream feel–fluid but with some “heft” without being weighty
- Prone to over-application due to softness (would be terrified to put one of these in a hot car/pocket!)
- Short-wearing (2 hours), hydrating
FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent).

Formula Overview
$22.00/0.08 oz. - $275.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have a "serum texture" that "melts onto lips" that "plumps, nourishes, and hydrates." The formula is very soft and already melted before it gets close to the lips, so using a light hand when applying is key to avoiding the product breaking up against the edge of the tube or coming away in larger sections. It was also critical to only click up the smallest amount as it was very easy to nick and smudge product when putting the cap back on.
The consistency was moderately emollient with decent slip, so it was not a particularly long-wearing product (three to four hours), but it was comfortable to wear and wasn't as prone to settling into my lip lines as one might have expected. The formula itself is very cooling and minty with a noticeable cooling, plumping effect that goes on for 45 to 60 minutes.
They had semi-sheer to semi-opaque coverage, depending on the shade, though the brand described them as "sheer'" but their swatches looked more medium/semi-opaque coverage.
I did not find they were hydrating over time, but it is possible that is due to having issues with some plumping products in the past. These had a strong mint scent but no discernible taste.
Note: As I have had poor reactions to plumping products in the past, so I only tested two of the seven shades for wear as past experiences have resulted in allergic reactions that can take weeks to resolve. I purchased these not realizing they meant actually plumping rather than the illusion of plumper lips from the glossy finish.
