[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Using stick makeup is one of my favorites – it’s easy to use, no need for a brush, and highly portable. I have been a fan of Ilia Multi Sticks for some time now due to these reasons, and my absolute favorite product is Dear Ruby, which comes in a beautiful tomato red shade.
Unless you have a very deep skin tone, this shade might be difficult to wear at full intensity, but Dear Ruby has a sheer formula that works well on cheeks, lids, and lips. Personally, I see it as mainly a cheek product, but I like the idea of using it on all three areas at once – something I may try out on Instagram.
This color brings a smile to my face and makes me eager to apply it. I adore the textures of Ilia Multi Sticks, which contain shea butter, orange peel wax, and avocado oil – all ingredients that are gentle on the skin and provide comfort.

First, let’s talk about this lipstick – a shade I wouldn’t have chosen myself, but it’s surprisingly wearable and appealing. It’s Wild Rose, offering full pigment, creaminess, and enriched with castor oil, apricot seed oil, and mango seed butter. The feel of it matches its ingredients. I haven’t yet tried the mascara, but I believe I’ve tried it before, so I’ll save that for another day.
Can’t you see Dear Ruby shining even more in the summer? While I can wear it now with my slightly olive tone, it will look even more stunning in the summer sunlight when my tone shifts from cool olive to warm olive.
You can find Dear Ruby HERE for £36, and Wild Rose HERE for £28.
