Really good long lasting red lipstick?

Hello all. I really love Mac Red (like Ruby Woo but less dry) but it just doesn't last on me.

Can anyone please recommend a long lasting red lipstick preferably with a slightly blue tone (rather than pink or orange or whatever). Thanks

I find this smashbox lipstick has amazing staying power. I wear the shade infrared which on me is a true red and doesn't have pink, orange, coral, whatever undertones. There's 120 shades though so you should find one too suit you Grin

I find Marc Jacobs Oh Miley quite similar to MAC Red, and it lasts brilliantly. Another that might be worth checking out is Burberry Military Red.

Wet N Wild have absolutely amazing staying power. Their Cherry Frost or Stoplight Red (the latter of which is a colour dupe for Ruby Woo) are great and available on Amazon if you aren't somewhere that has them in shops.

Otherwise Milani's Amore Mate lip creme in either Desire or Romance. They are matt but they're extremely moisturising (I have very dry lips) and long lasting, and they don't bleed out either.

Matte not mate!

Believe it or not, the Rimmel crayon in the blue-red shade "The Redder the Better" lasts and lasts all day on me. I don't have to reapply it, even when eating and drinking. It's cheap as chips as well.

Maybelline Superstay 24 Hours - its dual ended, and paints on like a lipgloss. It then dries matte or you can put the balm on at the other end.

I put it on at 7.30am, it survives copious amount of drinks and lunch. I then retouch at about 1pm and it lasts me through to taking make up in the evening.

I need a blue toned red and always get compliments on wearing this.

Have a look at lime crime. Will never buy another brand of lipstick 💄

Burberry lipstick.

Passes the drink and bagel test

Bobbi Brown art stick is the only one which works has staying power for me. Various fab reds.

Charlotte Tilbury Tell Laura and Lost Cherry are lovely. Not a fan of the rest of her make up but I do enjoy these lipsticks. There are a few more I'm after.

I have one from next that lasts ages

SimplyNigella · 12/06/2017 20:15

L'Oreal Infallible Sexy Balm- it goes on like a balm, is incredibly moisturising but gives full on red lips, looks like lipstick and last hours. Love it.

Revlon Really Red is matte like Ruby Woo but isn't drying and lasts for ages.
