I was pretty excited to do this review as I am big fan of their colorstay foundation! I got the color beige buff a nice neutral and applied. It looks like a gloss and dries to a nice stain. The color isn't totally in your face either which is nice. And off I went. Purchased my morning coffee, nice to see no lippie marks on the rim! However this is very very drying. And I mean big time. It felt as though I had put on a clay mask and left it for too long. I've been applying balm frequently throughout the day and it makes it feel a bit better. Overall? Does what it says, not sure about 24 hours but it sure doesn't budge! Not a fan of the drying though. Overall, I doubt I'll be purchasing this one.

Tips: Use lots of balm with this.
The colour lasts for quite a while (although nowhere near 24 hours) but it is a dry colour and isn't moisturising at all. I liked that it stayed on even when using lip balm during the day - it's the kind of product I will wear at work and not have to worry about reapplying during the day.
Tips: You need a good lip balm with this
Full marks for the product doing what it said. It does not come off after a meal (or a donut) . It goes on easily. Has a sticky feel but just till it dries which is pretty quickly. Dries light and barely noticeable (as in texture, not colour) its different and worth a try. I cant give it full marks as I prefer a creamy lipstick but its a must for the make up bag (like for date night and it will last) love the colour range too!
Tips: Best to use on good condition lips. (Lip primer, lip conditioner or lip butter) any cracks would show. Would suit a liner as well.
I love this product! it does exactly what it says it will, all your have to do is put it on before a night out.. no need to re-apply.
Love this! Its lovely how it glides on like a gloss but then dries so it doesn't kiss off and it stays all night and day. Excellent product!! Will definitely be purchasing more!
One of the things I hate about lippy is the fact that it deposits itself everywhere, leaving a set of facial fingerprints on everything. Well, with this stuff you could be a lipstick ninja, the staying power is so good.
The first time I tried this, I put it on at dinner time to see how far it lasted into the night - how would it cope with dinner and cups of tea? By the time I went to bed it was still going strong. Best take it off before I get it all over the pillows right?
Erm...I tried licking my lips and scrubbing with tissue, but the lippy stuck firm, with minimal remnants coming off. I eventually worked out that a bit of vaseline and a stronger material than tissue helps get most of it off. But there was a lingering "stain" still.
The next day I went for the full day test, so it went on before breakfast (and my morning coffee). I was amazed at how little lippy transferred to the lid of my coffee. The colour was also still going strong before I went out after work. I did touch it up just to refresh it, but it was still there from the morning.
Down sides? As with most "long-stay lippies" I've found, the consistency dries up a little after application, so your lips do become quite "sticky". I tend to rub my lips together a bit so this was a little unpleasant for me. It can also dry your lips out a little so it emphasises "cracks" or "grooves" in your lips.
But overall I thought it did a great job and I've worn it lots. This is a good testament from a lass who doesn't normally bother with lippy.
Tips: I started using Vaseline Lip Therapy under the lippy application to help with the "drying out" feeling. It does mean that the colour can come off a little easier, but it still stays on way better than any other lippy I've tried.
I have a couple of these in brighter shades, and even though I love the colour the staying power for me was not great. And when it started coming off, it flaked off from the corners of my lips. Reapplying made it look worse so you'd have to scrub it off which is not easy in the middle of a work day! Might use again but don't tend to reach for it!
I like the colours but I'm not completely sold on the product. It does do what it says, and is incredibly long lasting. However, it seems to dry my lips out a bit. Also, the smell is not the greatest, so if you're one for nice smelling products I wouldn't recommend this.
This is an awesome long wearing product. With most long wearing/colourstay products you run the risk of dry lips so you have to count the cost really. Exfoliating your lips before hand and patting with hot water and moisturising first can help. I think the colours are great, the product goes on well and drys quickly and Definately stays on through meals and then some. Once dried you can add a little gloss to freshen it up if desire. All in all I like this product (not love) but a strong like and would recommend if you want a strong, long wearing colour.
It stays. But its a bitdrying on the lips. Id rather reapply a lippy then have dried out lips. The colours are beautiful however Id reach for their suede range over these.
Tips: Less is more. don't over coat. use makeup remover at night.
