Maybelline Superstay Ink Crayon Reviews

I received the colour 40 laugh louder to trial, which is a bright orange shade, the smell of the crayon was very pleasant, slightly vanilla scented if anything. The shade is an intense payoff and tends to stain your lips, which is a good thing if you want it to last until your next meal. There are many shades in this range, i would suggest to pop into your nearest store and swatch shades to find your perfect match. I prefer this to conventional lipstick, perhaps because its easier to hold and control.

This review is based on the product itself, not the shade, as the shade I was sent (40: Laugh Louder) is orange, and looks horrid on me. I've already agreed to gift it to a blonde friend, who loves the colour, so all is well there! Simply a mismatch between my own colouring and the shade.

I would be very tempted to buy one of these in my preferred shades - a hot pink would be awesome.

This product is a lip liner/pencil/lipstick all in one. It comes in slimline packaging featuring an absolutely genius inbuilt sharpener. This not only stops your lip and eye products sharing a sharpener (hello germ transfer!), it means that you're assured of a tip to use for lining no matter where you are applying the product.

It applies and feels much like lipstick, creamy, non drying, comfortable - but slightly sticky; it doesn't 'dry' completely. It's NOT transfer proof, however it also stains, so while the top colour transfers, your lips are left with the colour as well.

I found by the end of the day i had uneven patches of it I ended up wiping off, so that's something to watch out for - reapplication, or at the very least rejuvenation with a bit of lip balm would be key. Because of this, it can't perfectly claim it's 'superstay' title, especially compared to the Matte Ink liquid, which is one of my holiest of holy grails.

So saying, coverage is full, opaque and bright.

Why doesn't it get full marks? - transfer and fading could be a little annoying - haven't been able to try it out on a full day event etc due to timing of trial but suspect that it wouldn't hold up for a full day

Thank you Beauty Review for this trial.

Laugh Louder! What a name for a colour, such fun. Super cool orange, I had so many comments at work, a real winning colour if you love orange.

This ink crayon is super easy to apply, its just like a crayon. It has a nifty sharpener so you always have a point for lining your lips as well as filling them in.

I was impressed with the rich creamy formula however I felt it was a bit drying which I didnt like. I did try it using a lip balm first and that worked for me a bit better, but I would prefer not to have to use 2 lip products.

For me I liked to staying power of this formula, I reapplied after lunch which took me through to home time.

I recently tried the Maybelline Superstay Ink Crayon in the colour red and was pretty impressed! The colour is super bright and it is so easy to apply as rather than your typical thick lipstick it comes quite thin with a precise tip.

I did find after eating and drinking it would slightly come off so I would suggest if you are looking for a longwearing lipstick that doesn’t budge at all I wouldn’t recommend this one. Apart from that I cannot flaw it! I’m looking forward to trying the more nude colours.

My sister gave me the shade 25 Stay Exceptional and I have to say I love it! The colour glides on and stays on for hours! Easily refreshed without looking cakey too.

I liked this lip crayon a lot, colour payoff is great, very handy for travel as there’s an in-built sharpener at the end of it, so very easy to take this on trips, no need to pack a sharpener! It applies precisely and gives a very good coverage, not quite matte though, it takes some time to dry sadly and also not very long-lasting, at least not for me. It comes off after/while eating, but it kinda just fades evenly, so at least not looking ugly before topping up the colour. It definitely doesn’t last those 8 hrs it promises, so that’s why I took some stars off. It doesn’t dry my lips out like some other matte lipsticks, so that’s a positive as well, all in all, this is a great, travel-friendly lippy, I think I’ll pick some more shades up in the future!

Woo what a colour! I got Laugh Louder 040 which is a orange red colour and its nice and bright for a festive pop of colour!!! Im not a bright lippy kinda girl but i thought what the hell id try it so i did once lol It was easy to apply almost like its name ink crayon, it blends really well and has a nice moisturiser to it. I found the staying power really good the colour did dull down a bit over the day which to be honest with i was quite happy about and i love the idea of the inbuilt sharpener as i find it easier to blend with a sharper point. Im keen to try another colour that i may wear more often so id still say it was/is a great product.

Did Maybelline Superstay Ink Crayon in shade #55 Make it Happen, happen? Sort of. Let’s talk about the packaging first. It comes in a nice long tube making it easy to store and carry in a makeup purse. It has a removable built in sharpener at one end and the twist up crayon at the other, and is all very simple to use. Dark red lipsticks however, as this one is, can be tricky to apply, and in my mind, this particular product colour works better as a lip stain than an actual lipstick. This is because the crayon is very creamy and applies in a blotchy fashion, which in part, might also be due to the current heat and humidity. The ‘top layer’ does transfer onto cups and glasses but once gone, what remains is long lasting, although not 8 hours of long lasting, and as already mentioned, looks like a lip stain rather than a lipstick. It is also tricky to get a precise outline of the lip shape due to the crayon shape of the product. Overall, I guess it happened, it lasted, just not as long as suggested by Maybelline!

I love to try a new shade of lipstick and see if I can pull it off, Make it happen #55 started off as vibrant bright red. I love how precise it was to apply and the fact that it was matte so it was gonna stay where I put it. I drink a lot of coffee, slowly the colour was being left on my cup and sadly the beautiful bright red was turning to a patchy tacky pink. I was impressed that it didn’t bleed inti my lip wrinkles, but instead it just looked smudgy and all this was over the period of around three hours. So while it didn’t deliver on 8 hrs I did enjoy the first application and the handy sharpener - although it does get a bit messy- I think it would work wonderful with the more subtle colours as you would get the stark contrast. I love the fact that it was easy to apply and fits nicely in a small bag or even a pocket.

Unfortunately this was the totally wrong colour for my complexion (an orange base) but I used it a couple of times at home and was pleasantly surprised. It goes on nice and smoothly and does last, but not as long as it says. Anything that lasts longer than half an hour is a bonus, this lasted a couple of hours.

There was no packaging on this, just the Ink Crayon but the shape and colour make it stand out.

If I can find the right colour for me then I will buy.
