Is this a gloss or a matte liquid lipstick?

Despite the name, it is described as a true matte with a soft-focus finish, not a shiny gloss. Expect a flat, velvet look rather than shine.

How do I apply it for a clean edge?

Use the pointed wand tip to trace the cupid's bow and line the outer edges first. Then swipe the flat paddle side across the lips in one gesture for even color.

How much product is in the tube?

The tube holds 3 ml. That is smaller than most full-size liquid lipsticks, so it suits occasional use or trying a shade.

Will it dry out my lips?

Matte liquid formulas can feel drying, and this one has no balm or oil step listed. Apply over a thin lip balm if your lips tend to dry out.

Does it come in many shades?

The listing gives no shade range, so check the available colors before buying. It is not positioned as a large shade collection like major lip brands.
