5 of the best long-lasting lip products

While reapplying lipstick gives you something to do (like when you’re out at a bar and being hit on by a weirdo and need an excuse to bail), no one actually likes doing it. Plus, it’s really annoying to have spent the time meticulously lining your lips and expertly layering them with colour only to have the shade seem almost non-existent after a few sips of your G&T.

Which is why I present you with five of the very best long-lasting lippies. Because if there’s one thing a girl should always rely on to last the distance, it should be her lip colour.
ESTÉE LAUDER PURE COLOR ENVY LIPSTICK
Give your lips lashings of saturated colour with this classic from Estée Lauder. It’s bursting with multifaceted colour pigments to define your pout with luscious colour for up to six hours. Run, don’t walk!
“The formula is spot on! I am addicted to matte lipsticks but make an exception for this creamy finish because it doesn't budge! ” – Emma 458.

MAX FACTOR COLOUR ELIXIR LIPSTICK
Beautifully pigmented? Tick. A nourishing formula? Tick. A gorgeous range of shades? Double tick. This lipstick truly does have it all. And if you’re a fiend for a red hue, Ruby Tuesday is one that can’t be missed.
“This is quite possibly one of the most long-lasting moisturising lipsticks I've tried.” – Petal.

YVES SAINT LAURENT ROUGE PUR COUTURE GLOSSY STAIN
This liquid lip colour is famous for its pretty packaging and how long it lasts. But on top of that, it leaves lips with a gorgeous satin finish and offers SPF 15 protection. A winner all-round.
“The pigmentation of this product is like no other – it lasts through food, kissing and day-to-day activities. By the end of the day I’m still left with a slight tint to my lips.” – ray_jay.

AUSTRALIS GO LONG LONGWEAR LIPSTICK
If you’re looking for a long-lasting lipstick with an almost-matte finish, then this is just what you’ve been looking for you. Oh, and you won’t be disappointed with how it feels on your lips, either.
“What I like is that they wear and wear without fading! I hate touching up during the day and I hate products that wear on the inside of my lips, leaving me with a ring of colour on the outside. These don't do that! They hold up while eating and drinking too!” – breathesarah.

REVLON COLORBURST™ BALM STAIN
The crayon-like lip stain works a treat to coat your lips in a colour that’ll last but without that dried-out feeling. Just take note that it won't leave a pigmented finish all day, but rather a flush of colour.
"I find they do stay on quite a while, even with talking/eating/drinking. They are affordable and have a gorgeous shine to them." - Brittbut90

I haven't tried any of these but would love to give the Revlon Colourburst a go - or the YSL lipstick if I was slurging!

I rather a lipstick that doesn't leave my lips looking and feeling dry, I usually bring it with me in my bag so I am happy to reapply.

On my lips Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet stays ages. I also find L'Oreal Color Riche lipsticks pretty long lasting.

I have seriously tried every long-lasting lipstick product on the market and I am only satisfied and trusting of L'Oreal Infallible 2 step Longwear lipstick. I have nearly every colour, it's that good. I have tried other brand versions but they don't stand up to L'Oreal.

I've got a fabulously long lasting Elizabeth Arden lippy at the moment, and nothing beats the Lancome lip gloss which I suspect would stay on in even in a nuclear holocaust.

Apart from being long lasting, I prefer ones that don't transfer as well. So far I have Covergirl Outlast, L'Oreal Infallible 2 Step and Provocalips lipsticks which come packaged more like a gloss stick. Are there any lipsticks, in lipstick form, that do both ?

No, have not used any of these before. Actually, do not mind how long lippies last, as I have to wipe them away anyways often (before eating a must!), so longevity never an issue

The packaging for the Estee Lauder hasn't been available for ages as far as I'm aware. It's been well over 12 months since Carli departed BH.

I love it when there are a variety of products in each price range like this - but sadly the Estee Lauder is a blunt-cut lippie - I hate those blunt cut ones they are so much harder to apply than the shape of say the Colour Elixr one (my preferred shape)

My all time favourite would have to be Loreal duo lip gloss and lip balm in Violet Parfait. I would love to try any of the above.

These products sound divine, there is nothing worse than your lipstick coming off soon after application. I love Jeffree Star's lip velours as they last a long time.
