Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick review

A good contender for a medium-wear lipstick. It doesn't have the all day staying power it claims, but I certainly get a lot longer out of it than I do most of my other lipsticks; for a full day of wear I generally only need 2-3 re-applications.

There's a good range available and the colour payoff is nice and bright without needing any layering. They're also easy to apply, unlike the liquids you usually need to use to get any kind of durability! My favourite thing about these lipsticks, though, is how comfortable they are to wear - I find that most lipsticks that last more than just an hour or two on me get dry and flaky before they start to wear off, which I don't get with the Ultimate Suede range at all.

I love these lipsticks, the colour pay-off is amazing and it is so creamy to apply and feels moisturising on my lips. I noticed after a while it stains my lips a little two in a nice way. Very pretty product and I love the packaging, makes it easy to see which colour I'm reaching for!

These awesom lippies feel like theyre not only a lipstick but also a lipbalm with the amount of moisture in them. Which is a good thing to me because i find a lot of lipsticks dry my lips out. They stajn your lips too (in a good way) so you dont have to worry about re-applying.

I bought two of these when they were first released, and ended up returning them both to Farmers for a refund.

They look lovely swatched and when first applied, but they dry up terribly on the lips and "pill" - i,e, ball up and rub off in dry little bits.

I've never been much of a fan of the type of long-last lipsticks that dry down and don't budge, but these were the worst I've ever tried.

I recently bought this lipstick in 047 shade. Its really easy to apply and has a creamy texture and smooth feel to it. The color appears lighter on initial application which prompted to me do a second and third coat. But I realised soon enough that the shade gets deeper as it dries to a matte tone. Overall extremely pleased with this purchase. Product does live up to its claim - lips feel comfortable and moisturised and nourished and the lipstick lasted me all day which is rare for me!

Not much to say really, lovely colours, and starts off nice and creamy but eventually started to make my lips dry and uncomfortable, and the colour did not last as long as expected. Still a nice lipstick, but not for all day.

I have 2 shades and I just love them. It’s good when you’re going to be very busy and don’t have time to see mirror as it doesn’t come off easily and doesn’t smudge while eating. The lips are moist and creamy.

This lipstick is a nice compromise between long wear and a traditional creamy bullet lipstick. It’s great when you’ve got a party or a dinner as it will stay on your lips for a few hours without showing much wear. My colour is called Preview which doesn’t really tell you much but it’s a pinky mauve and comes in a longer wind up tube. It glides on smoothly like a cream lipstick and you can do a couple of swipes without it feeling sticky. The formula says it’s Ultimate Suede and I guess the finish looks like a combination of matte and cream, not dried out like some long lasting lip colours can do. I’ve tested this out through coffee and cake and even an apple with minimal transfer! Any longer than quite a few hours say day to night you will find you need to touch up but I’m good with that as you get a bit of moisture when you re-swipe. The cap is clear so it’s become a little messy with product so if they ever redesign it perhaps do it in black. I’d buy this one again as an in between for just a dinner/drinks night or long lunch as it feels comfortable on the lips and stays a reasonable amount of time.
