Can Anyone Recommend A Lipstick With Staying Power, @Shanus Or Anyone

NickNack · ‎03-10-2010

I would like to find a lipstick that stays on and isn't drying. I also tend to choose pinks and roses because I always felt like that's what looked good with my skin tone. I feel like I need something a little darker, but not red.

I am pretty fair skinned with blonde hair, and I'm 65 years old. I was wearing Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick, Rebellious Rose to my hair appointment the other day. I thought it looked good when I checked before getting out of my car. When I was sitting in the chair for my appointment it looked like I didn't have lipstick on.

My hairdresser also has fair skin and blonde hair. She wears a more coral color lipstick that looks really good. She's probably in her early 30's so much younger, but our coloring is the same.

@Shanus or anyone, can you suggest something for me? Price doesn't bother me that much, because it will last me a long time. I'd prefer it to be under $40 though.

Edited to Add: When stating the brand, please say which lipstick it is in that brand. There are so many different ones within each brand, and some are drying and some are not. Thank you so much.

I have good luck with both the Doll10 and Bobbi Brown lipsticks.I like the Doll10 the best because you usually a multiple set of shades. They work on all skin tones. I'm very fair and they really are nice. Quality is great. Bobbi Brown is very nice especially if you are looking for a particular shade. Hope either works for your needs.

My favorite is Dior Addict in 976, it is a lovely rosy color.

Lancôme has been my preferred lipstick for several years. $32. Good color saturation, staying power, moisturizing. Wide range of shades. I also like Doll 10 but that's my second favorite.

Thank you @Fressa . Which Doll10 and which Bobbi Brown lipsticks do you like? I've used Bobbi Brown, and the ones that I tried were drying. They have so many different ones I wouldn't be sure which one you were recommending. I do use her foundation and eyebrow definer and love them.

Thank you @smoochy . Which Lancome lipstick do you like? I don't mean color, but which one specifically?

Edited to say: I saw your reply after I posted this. Thank you!

You can set your lipstick and help it last longer by splitting a tissue so you only have a single sheet, placing it over your lips (lipstick already applied in a single coat), then stamping some translucent powder over it.

Zuzu Luxe is my favorite. The color Beso Beso is a brighter, wearable pink that looks wonderful on my pale complexion. They stay on through coffee, etc.
