Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick review

I love this lipstick so much, it's my every day lipstick (I literally wear this every single day) and I've gone through 2 of these so far. It stays on all day long, if I eat sometimes it'll start flaking a little bit especially if my lips are dry so best to exfoliate dry lips before using this lipstick

I think the packaging looks amazing and is really easy to use. I love how it makes the clicking sound as you wind it and you never have to worry about the lid taking a chunk of the lipstick with it. I bought the Finale and Cruise Collection shades and I have tried Cruise Collection first. The colour is absolutely beautiful and it does stay on for a long time- from morning until night (and almost impossible to remove even with micellar water and eye/lip makeup remover). However, I ended up with a ring around my lips after work as all the colour inside must have come off as I talked and ate and drank. That means I need to either use lip liner on the inside of my lip or use gloss there to make fade out less obvious. I really wanted to like this product, this was my first longwear lipstick and I was amazed with how comfortable it felt but as I was looking for something low maintenance and easy to take care of, this one seems to be causing me more hassle than my usual lippies.

There is a great range of colours and many are pretty awesome. It has a clear plastic top so you can see the colour without taking the lid off. The lid stays on nice and tight and doesn't come off in your bag. While it goes on nicely and smoothly I find it dries out a bit too much for my liking. I wont buy another one which is a shame because he colour range is great.

This clicks as you wind up or down and looks different to other revlon lipsticks some are long lasting and quite pigmented so you do not need much others are more sheer than solid colour but buildable they do feel balm like and hydrating to your lips vitamin E and shea butter are good in my books and the fact mine actually clicks to wind up and down rather than winds straight up easy gives me the impression it could be safer in your hand bag if the lid comes off. The lipsticks can be mixed with other revlon lipsticks too so you can customize your colour.

Okay so I was super excited to try these because the packaging was super pretty and appealing but i was rather disappointed because I expected them to be matte and long lasting like the title implied. But these are super creamy and moisturising and they don't really last all that well. They have an amazing colour selection and the packaging allows you to see what colour the lipstick is just by looking at the outside of it, which I think is super handy for those of us that have way too many lipsticks ;) They are super pigmented too, to the point where I feel like after it comes off my lips, they are still stained from the colour. I feel like this range of lipsticks would be great for someone starting off with makeup, or someone with super dry lips, that wants some moisture and colour

That knowledgable lady behind the counter at Farmers pointed me in the direction of these lipsticks when I was looking at options for a long lasting lipstick.

In terms of longevity, they were pretty good, but I have found better. In terms of my lipsticks this brand was the second longest lasting.

I can't say it was hugely moisturising on the lips all day, initially it felt nice and sily smooth, but as the day continued it felt a little dry to me and the colour began to crack.

The colour was also not quite as pigmented as I expected to begin with and I think this may have been because of its initial silkiness.

I was also a little disappointed in Revlon's packaging, they have some far prettier packaging and I felt this was a little plain.

If I needed a now lipstick around the time of Farmer's beauty sale I may consider it, but I would probably try something else next time. In fact I'm already planning to try some different long lasting lipsticks.

I discovered these lipsticks a few weeks ago and I am wondering how I did not find out about them sooner! No more lipstick transfer onto cans or cups, no more reapplying every time I eat or drink. The shades Finale and Muse are absolutely gorgeous, they definitely do what they say they will and I have found they aren't extremely drying like some other lipsticks can be.

This lipstick is a little more expensive than some of the others from revlon but I can put this lipstick on a 7-30 am and by the time I go to have lunch at 2 ish it's still there. So I think it lasts quite well and does not dry out your lips. There is also a great colour range ranging from natural colours to brights. Lasts all day without drying out your lips.
