amazing, stays on your lips for ever!

I bought this product lastnight and tried it when I got home. When I woke up in the morning...my lips still had colour to them! I couldn't believe it...it stayed on all night!! It smells amazing and even tastes great and I love how it stains your lips intead of just covering them with goop like most lipsticks/glosses. I would definately reccomend this product!!

When this first came out, I was quite intrigued with the idea of a 'marker' that's a lipstain. I also hate reapplying lipsticks so lipstain sounded like a good idea. So i finally bought one to try. The precise tip makes it easy to fill my pout neatly. It didn't taste weird, lasted a long while and had great colour payoff, which is great. I think this would be perfect for summer or even layering under lipstick to make sure you always have a bit of colour. I am definitely looking forward to try more. The only downside is that i find a lot of the colours are really similar, I would appreciate some lighter colours.

It lasts a long time, even after I eat. It doesn't dry out my lips and I loved the colors.

I had originally bought this product (can't remember which colour now) about a year ago, and was disappointed in it. The stain didn't stay, and invariably came off whenever I'd apply a clear lip gloss over top. A month or so ago, a friend was using one and said she loved it - it stayed on her lips practically all day, and she had no problems with applying lip gloss over it - the colour stayed put. So... I decided to give the product another try, and purchased it in #405 Berry Smooch from Shoppers Drug Mart for $9.

I've had varying degrees of success with this product. While it seems to stay put a bit longer than before - maybe because I'm showing more patience in allowing it to fully dry before licking my lips or applying gloss/balm - I still find it's not really delivering on my expectations. I also have the same experience as one of the other reviewers - it seems to wear off in the middle of my lips first, which then makes it look that I went especially crazy with a lip liner.

The pros: I love the colour, the ease of application, and the smell is okay (although I prefer fragrance-free - why spend money on nice perfume when all you can smell is your lip colour??).

The cons: Doesn't deliver on my expectations; doesn't last more than 3 hours; more expensive than it really deserves to be.

Would I recommend it? Yes, but I would inform the person I was recommending it to that they may need to adjust their expectations. 'Lasting all day' clearly means different things to different people.

I love the idea of this product and the fact that Pat McGrath had the idea. The colours are beautiful and the application is easy.

My only problem is that it wares off in the middle (on me) and stays around the edges. I've noticed that on girls with fuller lips it stays true for hours because their lips don't touch each other as much.

Sometimes I mix a few of the colours right when I apply them by blending them out before they dry, and it has a nice dewy effect. I love that it has vitamin E in it unlike most lip stains that are alcohol base so this moiturizes your lips all day.

I really wish that they had a colour that was actually a peachy coral instead of koi coral which is like a hot pink.

The price is a little steep since it's so small but it's a great product.

I purchased this in 415 about a month ago. I'm not a big lipstick fan and find most lipglosses too sticky, so I generally prefer lip stains. I was absolutely in love with Revlon's "Just Bitten" lip stain in Cherry Tart, but unfortunately that must have been a limited edition product because I can't find it anywhere. That said.. I tried a couple other lipstains that were not the color I was looking for, and then I came across this one.
Pros: It's really easy to apply, the color is beautiful and exactly the shade I was looking for, it smells good, and is easy to carry around with you for touchups, and the price is great
Cons: It makes my lips look dry unless I apply a gloss over top and it does not last as long as other stains I have tried

Overall, if your looking for a lip stain this is the best I have come across so far for the price!

I got color number 415, Teasing Blush, to try out. This product from CoverGirl has a marker or pen applicator for your lips unlike regular tube lipsticks. It is water based so it shouldn't dry out your lips and doesn't feel heavy or look thick. It is supposed to last far longer than regular lipstick and isn't supposed to kiss or rub off onto anything. No leaving color on your teeth or cup.

Well, I was told that exfoliating your lips before using this product works better so you have more of an even application. It says to apply it to clean, dry lips. There are several methods I know to exfoliate lips. You could: use petroleum jelly and a wet washcloth, softly rub with a sugar scrub, manually exfoliate with a very soft toothbrush, or use a micro-exfoliating scrub made especially for the lips. When exfoliating lips it is best to start slow, rub gently, and then moisturize.

It was pretty simple to apply it correctly so it goes on smoothly. When using the Outlast Lipstain I found that putting a gloss over it made it shimmer instead of look flat. After drying fully (this does take some time and patience) it does seem to stay put. Although I had a bit of trouble with it if I licked my lips. If you lick your lips they have a raspberry-vanilla scent and flavor so they don't taste horrible. I have heard the applicator dries out easily and quickly, but if you store it like a pen or marker should be stored, tip down, then that problem should be solved.

All in all I liked the product and after thoroughly drying it stayed on for roughly 4 hours. I personally like to put a gloss or lip balm over it because it wasn't as moisturizing as I would have liked. It's suggested retail is $7.29 for one lipstain and they come in other colors that will compliment your skin tone.

I'm a bit ambivalent about this product.... The colours are really pretty (love the Mauve) and sheer, it tastes good, it defines my lips nicely. I'm not a lipstick fan, but still like rosy lips, so this is nice under a lip balm because the colour sticks around for a while, and isn't too arduous to re-apply it a couple times a day.

However, the colour doesn't come out of the pen very easily, and as mentioned by other reviewers, it doesn't last THAT long. I'd give it a couple of hours, maximum. And you absolutely need to wear a balm or a gloss over it, because it's inky rather than creamy. Worn alone, it'll dry your lips out. That said, I'd still choose it over lipstick, and it's cheaper than some of the other lipstains on the market, so I'm pretty happy with it for now.

I generally like this product, however I am sure there are better on the market- although likely not for this price. It is the only lip stain I have ever tried and I found it quite suprising and different from lipstick, in a very pleasant way. The best thing about it is that it doesnt smear like lipstick tends to! I could wear this when I was drinking and I wouldnt go into the washroom to find I has absent mindedly smeared red across my face from my lipstick. The lipstain feels fairly nice aswell. When you wear it your lips still feel fairly clean and not glossy and gloppy, however there is a dryer feeling to the lips. I prefered to wear my lipchap 'blistex lip infusion' over this product, when i did my lips felt perfect. They looked great too! This product is so vibrant and wonderful, and it creates a different sort of effect from lipstick, its generally cleaner. This product lasted really well for me, it held up to my eating and drinking. Because it held up so well I once wore it underneath my lipstick which was a little darker(it matched my dress). The lipstick I had wore of very easily as soon as I took a sip of anything it would be half gone, and if I absentmindedly licked my lips I'd end up with that ring of lipstick around nothing. With this lipstain underneath my lipstick it was less obvious of the wear and it blended fairly well although they were slightly different shades, and let me relax a little when it came to retouching my lips. I was really interested in this product and it has opened me up to the idea of lipstains. I would reccomend this, and I will certainly be trying more lipstains in the future.
