Covergirl Outlast, 30 Iconic Ruby, Lipstain, Smooth Application, Precise Pen-Like Tip, Transfer-Proof, Satin Stained Finish, Vegan Formula, 0.06oz

Beautiful lip stain with a very natural, flattering color. The pen-style applicator makes it easy to apply precisely, and it glides on smoothly without feeling heavy. It gives the lips a soft stained look that lasts nicely throughout the day. Great quality and a lovely shade that works well for everyday wear.

The best lip liner stain on the market! It lasts so long, blends well if you put a gloss over it quickly & the range of colors is nice. I wish the range of colors was even larger! It is not drying, but I always wear a gloss or balm on top. I’ve had mine for over a year and it has not dried out. It still applies well and a little goes a long way! Lasts even after oily meals, for 8+ hours.

Review is for Color: 20 Admire Lip stains are my favorite lip product these days, but I am particular about them. I don’t like the types that use a wand and then we dip it into liquid. Since Covergirl Outlast Lipstain is like a marker, I was excited for it. I like using this as my lip liner since it goes well with PH lipsticks by Magic Kiss and MoodMatcher. I don’t see myself using the CG lipstain alone since it’s semi drying and can be patchy. I only have one color so I don’t know if every shade is patchy. To be clear, the lipstain doesn’t cause my lips to be dry. It’s just not moisturizing the lips. Depending on the baseline of your natural lips the experience will be different for everyone. I think CG lipstains are best used with a gloss, topper, or another lipstick to fill in my lips. I apply the lipstain on dry, clean lips. I allow it to fully dry before applying something over it. It's a matte finish. However, nothing is transferproof on my lips including this product since I snack/eat often throughout the day. Transfer is minimal and it doesn’t get messy compared to traditional lipstick. It’s probably long lasting and smudge-proof if you fast. Pigmentation was good. Better than r.e.m. beauty’s lip stain marker. It has a light fruity smell. Almost cotton candy at times. Non-offensive. Not overpowering. I did not notice any bitter taste in my mouth. Made in the USA with imported parts. I really have no complaints about this product besides the color is wrong for me. I chose Admire (20) because I thought it was a lightish pinky mauve. Instead, it’s a dark mauve color like 90’s grunge. A plum shade. Keep in mind I am light-skinned with yellow undertone. It would look different on a deeper skin tone. The swatches/doodling I did on my hand looks lighter than on my lips. It was quite difficult to capture the color accurately in my photos. Hopefully my review is still helpful. I want to order more colors so I’ll update my review in the future. Would I recommend this lippie? It’s definitely not for everyone. It really depends on what you want out of it or expect from it. I have buck teeth and traditional (waxy/creamy) lipsticks always get stuck on my teeth so I find lipstains/PH lipsticks work the best for my type of mouth. My options are kind of limited.

The first lip stain that actually stays on for HOURS and hours. I still had a nice hint of color after 14 hours! I am going to try a few other colors as well. Great product.

This is a great, long lasting lip stain. It lasts almost all day even after eating and drinking. The pigmentation is great, the colors we have have all popped. It is not moisturizing but with a little gloss or lip balm on top it's great. It is pretty easy to apply and the tip is pointed for easier use.

Color is nice. Size of the tip is nice. It stays on for a decent amount of time. Doesn’t dry my lips out. But the pen itself dried up, and reminded me of an old Crayola marker really quickly after I used it only a few times. Could be good for travel, since you don’t get many uses out of it.

Major bummer. I was excited to get this lipstain in the Extra Witchy color, but I was shipped a lipstain with the plastic sticker seal already broken as if it has been opened and used already. There were also drops of the stain around the top of the applicator which I would not expect for a brand new unopened product. Clearly had been messed with. : / I know this is the seller/ manufacturer’s fault and not an Amazon worker because the broken-seal lipstain marker was then repackaged in an additional sealed plastic pouch. So, it had been repackaged for sale despite the sticker seal being obviously contaminated. Not sure I will try again to buy these here, even though the other color I got appears to be sealed and unused (I hope), but it was not packaged in an additional clear plastic pouch like the unsealed one. Honestly the factory sticker seal on these seems really insufficient and easily compromised. That’s probably CoverGirl’s fault, overall. But beware. Check your item closely upon receiving! I had to ask Amazon for a refund on this one. Also, the lipstain markers are way skinnier than I imagined, so it’s unlikely you get much product, and they surely would not last through many applications.

i got the “admire me” shade. th color is a QUITE a bit lighter than expected which is very disappointing. other than that, the pen point tip is AMAZING for that sharp lining of the lips! the tip seems very sturdy. it’s a light application and you can’t even feel it throughout the day. what’s even better, is it ACTUALLY stays. for. hours. i work in a restaurant and a hair salon so it’s very hard for me to be able to stop and reapply my lip liner. well, now i don’t have to worry about it!! worth the money (although the shipping is a bit high) it’s worth the base price of $8. i recommend!!
