As a lipstain this product is as drying as all the others. But used as cheek stain over a little primer, this stain is perfect !
I use the "always hot chili" which is a fig shade, stays on all day, looks so natural, and is reasonavly priced.

I was skeptical but I'm convinced! I bought a nude shade to try and applied according to instructions. Stayed on until I remove it purposely. I have dry lips but the exfoliating ensured a great smooth application. Downside is the package. I wished they would sell the balm separately. I feel that I will run out of it before I run out of the lipstick itself. Still, I'll buy more colors soon!

I have this in Endless Ruby and Cinnamon Stay. ER is a gorgeous shade of red that I love so much I bought another tube just in case these are discontinued (since a lot of people seem to hate them). CS I picked up because I wanted a less bold color. Unfortunately I'm not a fan of Cinnamon Stay on me. It doesn't look awful but it doesn't do anything for me either so darker skinned ladies beware.

I haven't had the problems with application that others mention. I just make sure my lips are clean and free of oil and wait the TWO minutes the packaging suggests before adding the gloss. I've worn Endless Ruby for 7+ hrs and it still looked perfect when I went to bed that night. I did have to reapply the gloss a few times but the color didn't budge at all. I did find Cinnamon Stay applied streaky but since I'm not crazy about the color anyway I just put it *on top of a balm* to sheer it out but it obviously is not long wearing used that way.

Packaging is pretty basic and feels cheap which makes me wonder why this is 9 bucks in some stores. The twist up part of the gloss side wobbles in it's base and I'm scared I'm going to break it. I'm not sure that it would survive if I kept it in my purse. Overall I think these are great lipsticks but I wish there were some options for daytime shades other than browns.

This is the only 24hr stain on the market that will not budge, I have fallen asleep in this and woken up with red lips (don't judge me I know you've all done it!). It's really phenomenal for long nights out dancing when you don't want to be checking your makeup every hour. Because it is such a clingy formula you need to take a few extra steps in application

1) EXFOLIATE! before applying i run a toothbrush over my lips to get rid of any unevenness. This product will stick to any imperfections and look flaky so get rid beforehand.

2) If you have time put a tiny amount of lip balm on and let it sink in until lips are totally dry. If you don't have time to let it dry skip this step.

3) Apply stain and let it dry COMPLETELY

4) Glossy balm over the top

5) Enjoy perfect lips for hours!

6) If you need to reapply when you're out wet your lips and run a tissue over to take off as much of the base layer as you can and reapply on a smooth surface. If you don't it will look flaky as the new layer sticks to the excess bottom layer.

Used properly this is a cracking product that lives up to the hype

I logged in today just to write a review on this!

So... I have small lips and for some reason, dark lipstick just never looks good on me...especially red lipstick. I've tried several higher-end long-lasting lipstick brands before, and the results are usually the same - I end up with the lipstick coming off in the center of my lips (towards my mouth) and then this red ring that only covers like 3/4 of my lips. Obviously, this happens with lighter lipsticks too, but it's just not as noticeable. My boyfriend really likes the red lipstick, dark black eyeliner look, so I decided to humor him today. On a whim, I stopped at target and this looked like the best shade available (keep up the flame, I think). I really didn't expect to like it so much, but it's seriously awesome! This is seriously my new favorite lipstick!! I've secretly always wanted to be one of those girls that wears red lipstick all the time and now I can! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!

I had some high hopes for this lipstick. My mother's friend had worn it and she said that the lipstick really did stay on for the entire day, even when she was eating and drinking water. The color choices were fantastic and I just adored the packaging. It looked so convenient and I was happy to discover that there was a moisturizing balm that came with it, since I have really dry lips.

Warning to those that have really dry and sensitive lips. Don't use this. The first time I used this the color was sticky and hard to apply. It emphasized the cracks I have on my lips when they're dry. The moisturizing balm did nothing to help the matter. And now, my lips feel damaged. They're horribly dry... feels itchy and tight... and they're extremely swollen.

This might have all just been a result of the use of a chemical in the lipstick... a chemical that I'm allergic to or extremely sensitive to. Either way... definitely not trying this again. This lipstick is definitely not meant for dry, sensitive lips.

The lipstain does in fact, stay on for a very long time. As for the 24 hour thing, it is probably a case-by-case depending on what you eat and drink, but in general the color stays for a very long time.

When applying, just be careful that you let the lipstain dry first before applying the lip cream, else it all comes off and the lip creams gets kinda gross. Don't worry though, because the lip stain dries really quickly.

Personally, the colors are a bit too bold for me, but if you want really red lips that will stay red, this is the cheap product for you. The product is scented as well. The one I bought smelled like rasberries. But even if you don't like the smell, the smell goes away pretty quickly after application.

The packaging is pretty bad. It is clean, but the caps make me nervous because I don't think they look very tight. They feel pretty loose, but I have not had a problem with it spilling everywhere yet.

3/5 could recommend depending on the person's need, but personally won't be buying again. Not a bad product, but there are better out there.

This product is amazing! It really stays on for 24 hours! This lipstain has the best quality out of the ones that I've ever used. The only thing about it is that even though they sell quite some colors, the kind of pink shade that I like is not available! The color is either too light or too purple or red. That's why I keep buying my pink lipstick of Maxfactor (lipfinity) and for the orange lipstick I just buy this one. The product is definitely worth the money!

I have had mine for a while (few months) and use it in the morning. I wont really apply it again after that because it lasts FOREVER. You have to let it dry on your lips before applying the balm and it wont flake if you only apply a thin layer! Ill eat and drink and kiss and it doesnt come off :) This is the only type of long wear gloss I can wear. I cant feel this one on my lips like other brands, which is what I hate most.

I bought 2 colours, Timeless Toffee and Infinite Petal. Timeless Toffee is a light beige/dark nude colour and Infinite Petal is a dark pink/light purple berry colour, both contain shimmer. I never tried long wear lip colour before, so when this went on sale I tried one.

Long wear lip colour tends to be drying because the product clings onto the lips. This is why it comes with a moisturising lip balm. It actually comes with directions on the side of the product that directs the user to allow drying time before applying the lip balm. I find that when followed correctly the product works fine. It is not really 24 hour wear, unless you do not plan to eat or drink in 24 hours as all cosmetics come off with oil. So if you eat anything that contains oil, the product will come off and need to be re-applied. The balm is super soft and started melting in the summer, but it is just regular balm so if I use it up or it melts off I can always just use any balm to subsitute.

The packaging is kind of flimsy. I find the lip balm side is not securely designed so can fall off, especially after multiple uses. I think I either banged or dropped one of them and cracked the plastic on the gloss side already.

I would not buy this product again because I find it is redundant. It is a good idea, but I can obtain the same results with a lipstick and lip gloss. I also find the idea of long wear is not possible to achieve unless the user does not eat or the product is permanently tatooed onto the lips.

This does what it says on the tin! It really does stay on for ages! I tested it on my hand in the shop the first time and it was still on 2 days later! :-S

So I stumped up a bit of cash and took the plunge. So far I have only tried it at home but I ate a meal and drank some drinks and it was still on. It needed a little top up in my inner lips (I guess as that area is naturally very moist) but other than that it was fine.

You expect long lasting lipsticks to be drying but it really isn't very drying at all. I don't think you can get away from some dryness though with a long lasting lippy but it's a small price to pay for the super-long wear. Also on the other end is the balm which you use for subtle shine and moisture.

For me, the reason for this product is for example if you're going out for a meal and really need it to stay on all night - then this will do a great job. Plus if you're not using it that often, then it's pretty economical.

I will defo buy again.

The first time I tried this product it flaked off within minutes. But I gave it another go after reading reviews and I'm happy that I did. Now it doesn't seem like such a waste of money.

If you are experiencing flaking, make sure that your lips are dry when you apply this. No balm, gloss, or chapstick or it doesn't stick to the lips (this was my mistake the first time...). Also, don't wait until it's completely dry to put gloss over. I waited like 10-15 seconds and applied the balm/gloss over and the color lasted and didn't flake.

The only think about this product that makes me not want to buy again is the applicator and consistency of the product. I just think it's a bit messy.

I have two shades of this product: a very red one and a pink-ish one. It really does what it promises: it stays on your lips forever. I ate, I drank and after 9 hours it was still there. However, it isn't very confortable for me after so many hours; I don't know if it happens to others too, but I try to remove it and put it again after 3-4 hours because it changes its texture, probably from drinking and eating and all. But it doesn't bother me; I actually prefer to reapply it because it looks better when it's fresh.
Now, the first time I used it, I tried to take it off with a wipe (make-up remover) and it just didn't come off. I discovered later that an oily removal was needed :)) So: 1. if you don't have an oily makeup remover, you can use baby oil/olive oil/coconut oil to wipe it off; 2. if you eat something oily, it will come off your lips.
It doesn't stain clothes or glasses or anything; it doesn't stain your face if your hair gets crazy - like normal lipgloss does; and it isn't sticky, though it looks like a lipgloss. It really stays on the lips for 24 hours and it looks great!

I love this lipstick! it's really resistant, stays perfect all night long without retouching, and doesn't even leave any stains on glasses (which I find gross and is one of the reasons I usually don't wear lipstick). It may start to flake a little about 8 hours or so, though. The only downside is that, if you want to remove it earlier than that, it won't come off easily only with water and soap - but with a makeup remover you'll be fine. I have this in "keep up the flame" and it's a gorgeous non-shimmery red.

I love this stuff! Wore it for my wedding and stayed on all day long. You do need to have a gloss because your lips will feel dry after awhile. Follow the directions carefully. If you don't wait the entire drying time - it might flake off. They also have some wonderful colours. I went with All Day Cherry - looks great on blue eyes, blonde hair and fair skin.

I bought this in Blush On which is a medium rose pink and the color suits me perfectly. It goes really well with very light skin. The formula is pretty good. I notice that the color stays true to what is in the tube; it doesn't darken or change which Revlon Color Stay does, on me at least. I apply it once very thinly and then use my pinky finger to kind of rub it in, then apply the gloss. After about an hour I apply a thin second coat. This makes the color more vibrant and after this second application it lasts a long time, hours and hours. Only one coat tends to fade away after awhile. The formula isn't as good as Revlon Color Stay but the colors Color Stay has now are terrible. Hardly an choice and most of them don't look good on me. I don't find the Maybelline 24 hour formula too drying. If you need more gloss then just use a regular lip gloss; it won't affect the color. I would definitely buy this again.

I love lip stains - I've been using Lip Ink for about a year, and my only criticism is the way that some colours seem to change colour with my lip chemistry. Anyway, I thought I would give this 24 hr stuff a try, because the colour range appealed, and... It is fantastic! No colour change and brilliant lasting time.

I put it on at 8am and go to work. Lunch, cups of tea, snacks, and by 6pm the inner edges have just started to wear off. The outer lip line and rest of the lips are still perfect. And that is with only one or two gloss applications. Astonishing.

Even using my Liz Earle cleanser (v rich and creamy) won't get the stuff off, and I have to exfoliate with a micro fibre flannel at night. They say use a oil based makeup remover, so I'm going to find some.

Could it be that the people who have problems with it 'crumbling' and peeling, are putting it on too thickly? Or using a lip cream underneath it? Those were two things I learned not to do with Lip Ink, because they both reduce the staying power A LOT! The thinner you get the product, the better the staying peer, and if you can feel a layer on your lips, then it is too thick.

Anyway, I now have three lovely soft shades (if you have been colour analysed Soft Autumn then I recommend these); a very nude Creme Caramel, a deepish warm pink Forever Heather and a gorgeous deep brownish Pink Spice colour. The last two are EXACT matches to dots on my Sci Art Soft Autumn colour palette.

This was an awful product. The color flaked off my lips within 15 minutes. The residue looked like I had been wearing old lipstick for days. Very gross and unattractive. And considering the actual amount of gloss is extremely tiny, it's a huge ripoff. Just another gimmick that doesn't work.

I got this color in a dark red, after multiple things of lipstick I bought of a similar color would never stay on more than 30 minutes. With lipstick, it would always wipe off into a gross pinkish color, and I didn't want that to happen. I read online that lip-stains were the way to go, and so I decided to try this 24 hour color.

Well, good news. The color is gorgeous. In the five minutes I was able to wear it without problems, I'd already gotten multiple compliments on it.

But that's the problem. The color chipped off after just minutes.

I'd almost prefer the gross pink smear of lipstick to how this gloss comes off; it chips off like a poorly done paint job. It got on my teeth, and makes my lips look HORRIBLE when it's coming off. It looked like I was eating berries that stained my face. I re-applied the lip gloss 4 times in a row in just an hour. Sometimes, after 10 minutes of waiting for it to dry before I put on the balm, the balm itself will take the lip gloss off.

I work as a front desk secretary at a medical clinic, and this is super embarrassing to have to deal with the first (probably only) time I used the product before my lunch break, where I washed it off (not a problem to do for it lasting ~24 hours~) and applied a tinted chapstick to make the leftover stain less noticeable.

But like I said, gorgeous color. If only it stayed on.
