Great

Matte lipsticks are usually super drying and cracking but this is not the case. It dries fast but is still super moisturizing and extremely long lasting. Plus a gorgeous shade!

I have used so many expensive products that offer the same benefits and for the price, this product wins! You definitely have to let it dry but that doesn't bother me. Overall will definitely keep buying.

Maybelline Matte Lippy

I usually wear reasonably natural shades of lipstick, no bright reds or purples for this girl, but I thought I'd try something a bit different and went for the "Voyager" colour to try. Packaging was nice enough, anything that shows the colour of the product rather than just a plain black/white etc container is a win in my book. I did have problems with the applicator, especially the bow on my top lip, and discovered just how quickly the product set making it difficult to wipe away the over-run. But once I was happy with the application I was very pleased with the results. The colour was more intense than I would usually wear but after a while decided I quite liked it, and definitely was fond of the matte look. It didn't feel tacky at all and I was very impressed with the wear time. It lasted all morning and didn't start to wear off until later in the afternoon when it was eating time. I found the outline lasted all day, but the inside did need a touch up after eating. All in all I was really impressed with it, and would definitely look at purchasing more of the more neutral colours at the other end of the range.

Tips: If you need to make any corrections after application, get on to it quick smart because it sets very quickly.

Sticky situation

I LOVED the colour and look of this lipstick. I got the 'Lover' shade which worked we with my pale complexion. It was so easy to apply and I felt like I didn't have to go out to purchase a lip liner to wear it. It's only downfall was it's texture. Two hours into my initial application it was still sticky! That definitely would not stop me from wearing this product again. The positives well out weighed the negatives. I can't wait to purchase more shades of the Maybelline Superstay Lip Ink.

Tips: Don't apply too thick or it'll take fooooorrreeevvveeerr to dry! Also an oil cleanser works best trying to remove this stubborn lip ink - it's not lying when it says Superstay!

It actually really does stay on...

I've tried several stay on lipsticks and to be honest this is possibly one of the best in terms of staying power.

So the smell when you you it on is yuck - like a cheap vanilla candle but that goes away when it dries which is really fast. The brush thing to put it on is quite pointy which is good as you want to make sure you get your lines right. I have a dark shade and did clown mouth by accident and had to correct it with eye mark up remover as it was firmly a lip stain. God forbid you get it on the carpet!

People noticed it and I got compliments at work which I don't with my usual lipsticks - perhaps as it's so matt and quite dark it really does stand out.

The best thing for me was simply the staying power without going all crackly which is what I've had before from stay on lipsticks or very matt lipsticks.

By about 10 hours wear my lips did feel dry but certainly not cracking. After 2 meals, loads of drinks and 10 hours wear it was starting to wear off but not completely so I'd say that's a very good innings.

I'd certainly buy other shades but maybe not the lighter ones as I think they may look a bit weird with it being so very matt.

Tips: You're going to need eye makeup remover to get this off if you make a mistake.

Should I stay or should I go...

This lipstick is so appealing for staying power and it does last, but it starts to break down in the middle after drinks or meals and needs to be re-applied. I purchased this in Pioneer, which is the perfect blue based red. It can be applied very sparingly as it is super pigmented. It does have very good staying power, if your on a smoothie diet with a straw it'll last the whole 16 hours... It felt slightly sticky when I applied it, and it also made my lips feel very dry and like they were coated in something unnatural.

Tips: A little goes a long way

Love this matte ink

I put this on in the morn before heading to work, do a long hard physical days and work and its still in place when I come home! Dont put a snd ayer on during the day as it can tend to get clahggy, if it needs a tidy up wipe the majority of it off and slick the lippy on again. I have 4 colours and this is my current go to lippy :)

Tips: Be careful to follow your lipline carefully as mistales are hard to recity without starting again.

Will not budge

I liked this lipstick, the matte finish is really nice and the colours are super pretty. The product is highly pigmented and very vibrant. Application is easy and once applied it takes a while to dry which can be uncomfortable but then it like a lip tattoo it won't smudge, bleed or move at all. This product is the best long-lasting lipstick I have found, my only complaint is that it can be a little drying to my lips.

Tips: Use an oil cleanser to remove.

Impossible to remove

This liquid lipstick is both great and terrible because once you apply it it is quite literally impossible to remove. You can eat and drink and do anything and it won’t budge. But it is really hard to get it off once you want to remove it. It’s also a very moisturising formula so it doesn’t really dry down and stays slightly sticky.

Matte perfection

I love a lippy that doesn’t need to be retouched every 5min. It’s super matte and the colour is always on point.

Great Colours Super Stay Debatable

Well, I have to admit I absolutely loved the colour! when applying the product I found the applicator a little odd with a hole in the middle of the sponge-like end. Maybe this is a new thing but it did prevent me from having to redip to apply more and it didnt leak out when applying so that was great. The first day I used it found it lasted most of the day I was actually quite impressed as the most colour starts to disappear within hours but this product I managed to get a good 8 hours out of it, so a big thumbs up. The second day is where things fell apart a little I was disappointed at a function I went to my lip colour left lumpy lip ink on my wine glass and this wasn't just a small amount either it was clearly obvious (don't worry I know you are never going to prevent that) but compared to the other ladies my glass looked terribly worse and obvious. Overall I would use it again sparingly maybe with a non-sheen lip moisturiser to help prevent transfer and the colour is absolutely fantastic.

Tips: Use a lip moisturiser to help prevent transfer to glasses when out to functions.
