Extremely longlasting, needs an oil-based remover at the end of the day. Cheaper version of identical Revlon item., 13 Dec. 2015

This product certainly lasts and lasts. It's pretty much identical in performance to the much more upmarket and expensive Revlon version, at a budget price. I got the Quartz Star Rose Quartz shade, colour 110, which in the bottle, looks like a burnished copper, but which is far, far lighter when on.

The colour is a mix of nude pink with a hint of brown glitter and goes on with a sponge applicator, and you have to let it dry for about 2 minutes so that it forms a seal on your lips. Then, you use the other clear gloss side of the lippie to add sheen to the colour - this can also be used as a clear gloss. You could leave off the gloss part, but, it does make your lips rather stiff and dry, but at the same time, it gives a decent matte look (there are arrows to tell you which side to use first).

The lipstick lasts through food and drink, and only something with a bit of grease touching your lips would be enough to move the colour, and even then, it'd move the colour...

A Bit Too Pricey for the Size, 12 Dec. 2015

Maybelline Super Stay 24 hour Crystal Shock Lipstick 5ml in "PRECIOUS CORAL" Shade 470

This is the second of this particular Maybelline Lipstick range that I have tried and this is my experience:

1st Impressions:

• Presented in a smart celluloid box which has on it, the product ingredients (in minute printing) and the instructions for use? (Remember to read this before discarding this packaging!)

• Neither the celluloid box nor the lipstick inside was tamper-proof sealed in any way.

• 1 end of the lipstick is the colour application part, and the other is the secondary overlay. The presentation looks clean and smart.

• The colour applicator unscrews and the secondary overlay end is just pull off, twist up and then twists back down and clicks back on after use.

• Printed on the barrel of the lipstick holder, is an arrow with a '1' and another arrow with a '2', so you have the reminder of which to apply...

SuperStay 24 hr lipsticks are BY FAR the best I have used, 29 Mar. 2016

SuperStay 24 hr lipsticks are BY FAR the best I have used. I've spent a fortune on expensive lipsticks in the past, and now I never stray from these. They have remarkable staying power, they don't smudge and they don't bleed. If you're looking to try a new brand, please give these a go - they really are fabulous.
