A lip tint/stain that lasts

40 replies

MTBMummy · 19/02/2014 19:06

I have no luck when it comes to lipstick, try as I might I cannot find one that stays on.

I really like lip tints and stains as they don't feel as claggy as lipstick, especially for just wearing day to day, but they all seem to fade to nothingness within an hour

Does anyone have one they can recommend that seems to last? I'm happy to pay for something that works

Thanks

Revlon lip crayons last well and they're only about £8

rootypig · 19/02/2014 20:51

oooh you need YSL Vernis a Levres. It is fucking MIRACULOUS stuff.

AmelieRose · 19/02/2014 20:52

I agree with Dave above - was just about to post the same. Much better than the Clinique Chubby Sticks - the Revlon ones last longer and are far cheaper!

tshirtsuntan · 19/02/2014 20:54

Benefit benetints have too much staying power for me- you can't get the buggers off! The original one is a fairly dark pinky/red colour but I think they do other shades now.

BloodFlower · 19/02/2014 20:55

Revlon kissable balm stains all the way :)

rootypig · 19/02/2014 21:19

No no no no no. YSL. Please try it at a counter. It's a game changing product, there is nothing else like it.

moonshinestar2 · 19/02/2014 21:34

Benetint for certain - I have the cherry one and love it!

daimbardiva · 19/02/2014 22:21

No 7 lip stains and lip lacquers. Really like both these products

HappyGirlNow · 19/02/2014 22:28

Benefit Posietint - it's the pink version of Benetint..

MsAspreyDiamonds · 20/02/2014 03:40

Elizabeth Arden 8 hr cream in liptick form Flipping amazing, my lips are so soft after use and it really does leave kissable lips. There are two tints available: pink or deep red which leave a hint of colour so perfect for daily use. Use a lipliner all over your lips before applying if you want a more intense shade for evening wear.

Stila lip and cheek stain - the pomegranate one is lovely, a "your lips only better" colour.

buttercrumble · 20/02/2014 07:11

Benetint the coral one is georgeous

whereisshe · 20/02/2014 10:56

To everyone who is saying benetint, how do you get it to stay on? I find it's gone within half an hour of application...?

101handbags · 20/02/2014 11:48

Maybelline Super Stay 10 hour tint gloss - this stuff is amazing. I need to take it off with clinique take the day off at the end of the day - it fades a little but it never comes off entirely. I have had strangers come up to me & ask what lipstick I am wearing. I wear the 540 Endless Ruby. This is a stain even though they call it a tint gloss - it's not a sticky gloss.

Toofattorun · 20/02/2014 22:18

Oh bloody hell...
Why did I read this? I bought the YSL Vernis a Levres lip stain today at Boots. It cost £25.00. It is the first gloss that doesn't feel sticky and I've been wearing it since 7pm and its still on (not v. Glossy but the colour is still there) three and a quarter hours later. I'm very impressed!

rootypig - I blame you 100% for my spending!

now I have to find someone to blame for spending £65 in MAC

DipMeInChocolate · 20/02/2014 22:20

The only ones that stay on me are Maybelline 24hr lip colour. Shame as not many of their shades suit me.

Dawndonnaagain · 20/02/2014 23:30

Went to a gig last night, got home at two a.m. Fell into bed, got up showered, dressed, did hair. Went downstairs to do face and last nights YSL lippy was stii in place.

Toofattorun · 21/02/2014 09:20

Dawndonnaagain - how many layers did you put on? That's very impressive!

I only tried it out with two light layers and it lasted about 4 hours or so even after eating. I can still see a slight colour now but nothing major.

Can't wait to try it out properly today.

plentyofsoap · 21/02/2014 10:00

Why have I just read this. I want it now and I'm going into town soon. I blame you all!!

Dawndonnaagain · 21/02/2014 10:36

I did two, put it on, blot with tissue, reapply, forget it!

HelloBoys · 21/02/2014 10:52

The YSL is excellent was recommended by someone here didn't believe them but it works! sort of a gloss/stain. not cheap but bloody works!

BetterWithCheese · 21/02/2014 13:57

Dawn and Toofat what YSL colour did you get? I got 23 which goes on a pinky coral which is gorgeous but the stain is quite orange . I love the feel of it though so looking for a better shade that stains pinker than 23 does.

I love the Benetint in the coral shade.

Oops mine is 29 not 23.

Dawndonnaagain · 21/02/2014 14:54

I have olive skin and black hair though, so bright reds look okay on me.

rootypig · 21/02/2014 19:21

Woo so glad someone listened to me! Because it ACTUALLY WORKS

And makes me look better in photos, unlike any other make up product. I have 5 (night out) and 29 (perfect day neutral) I am hankering after a few more
