SuperStay 10HR Stain Gloss™ - Lip Gloss By Maybelline
maybelline.com
This is my new found favorite fall lip combination so far this season. I am a lip "junkie" and if you go through my makeup collection, one would find a massive amount of lip products everywhere. With that being said, I am a huge fan of dramatic lips. This ranges from pretty pinks, classic reds, mysterious dark plum lips, to sassy oranges and all colors in between. I discovered this awesome duo today and I just had to share with all of you how well these two products work together.
Lets first start off with the Super Stay Stain Gloss. I was immediately drawn to this color in the store because of the purple. It was a pretty shade from what it was supposed to look like on the colored cap. Again, I love bold and so I just went with this color because I feel like I have so many neutral pinkish reds if you know what I mean. This product is supposed to act like a stain and a lipgloss in one and I feel like it does a decent job at what it claims to do. I do find the consistency of the product to be a little weird and it seems to smell a bit like kool aid or some sort of flavored children's drink. I do like how it has a very wide and flat applicator brush. It covers a lot of lip and the brush is easy to work with. You need to let the product dry a bit before you start rubbing your lips together or licking them. The stain usually stays on my lips for a few hours which in my opinion is pretty decent. I would much rather have something stay on my lips for a few hours and not have to worry too much about it fading and such. Does it last 10 hours? Heck no. But, I do think it is one of the better stains on the market for sure. Now, here comes the fun part.....On to the baby lips.......
I love any lip balm that is going to give my lips great moisture but also a splash of color. I have been noticing lately that after doing my makeup, I can't just leave my lips bare. It just makes me look really off center and kinda pale? Hope that makes sense.. :) Anyhow, the baby lips products are awesome. I just happened to have this baby lips flavor in "Grape Vine" in my pocket throughout the day and it was perfect when my lips were feeling a little parched. I didn't realize at first how these two lip products would work so well together. I was really just trying to keep my lips moisturized so I wouldn't be rubbing my lips together. But these two really compliment each other. The stain was having pretty good staying power today but with the hint of color of the baby lips, I didn't have to retouch the stain today. It was quite a pleasant surprise. Now I am certainly not claiming that my lips looked like when I first applied the stain, but it was a quick and easy option for me to keep my lip color throughout the day without looking in the mirror.
Hope you find this useful and that you are having a fun filled weekend :)
