jaclynday: I’m not a big fan of lipstick. It goops, it runs, it looks heavy. I’ve tried high-end brands and low-end brands. Some are okay, but I’ve never fallen in love. But, it’s a quandary: how do you get great, rich color without lipstick? Gloss doesn’t have near the staying power. The solution is a really amazing lip stain, and I’ve found it: Cover Girl’s Outlast Lipstain. It’s about $8-9 and comes in a bevy of really gorgeous colors. I’m partial to Teasing Blush: the perfect shade of red/pink that stays on my lips for hours. I applied the stain yesterday at 4 p.m. and it was still going strong at 11 p.m. The biggest complaint about lip stains is that they are too drying, but after the stain sets on your lips, simply touch them up with a bit of Carmex for moisture. P.S. One note about lipstains: they’ll appear much, much darker on your lips than the color you see on the packaging/samples. I love how this one is pretty much a felt tip marker you can use on your face. It’s nice how these give you color a little more naturally than the various longwear liquid lipsticks.
