Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink
Favorite shades: Pioneer, Seductress, Ruler & Lover
Maybelline’s Super Stay Matte Ink was an instant favorite of mine and I haven’t let them go since! They are seriously my personal favorite long wear drugstore lipsticks. I talk a bit about them in my raving post all about the best Maybelline makeup products, but let me just say here, that this long-wear matte liquid lipstick with a killer shade range will not let you down and is my all-time favorite lipstick from the drugstore! Their red lipstick in the shade Pioneer? Amazing. I even compared it to Taylor Swift’s lipstick in this IG Reel.
With just one swipe, achieve a color-intense matte finish that lasts up to 16 hours. Pair it with your favorite lip liner and you’ll have an unstoppable lip combo perfect for special occasions. This iconic longwear formula delivers a highly pigmented, smudge-free color that locks in place, ensuring a fresh and vibrant look all day long with no transfer. Trust me, I have tested it for a while and it does live up to the hype!
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick
Favorite shades: Bare it All, Fire and Ice, Rum Raisin & Rose Velvet
This is where comfort meets a luxe feel. With a formulation made up of 80% conditioning ingredients, it softens your lips with soothing comfort while delivering beautiful color. It is perfect for dry lips and is offered in rich, vibrant shades that feel lightweight on your lips. These have been around a long time, and they are still amazing for a reason. The shade range is also insane – so many different options!
Revlon Super Lustrous Glass Shine Lipstick
Favorite shade: Rum Raisin
This stunning lipstick is formulated with high-shine elements and it reflects light for a brilliant, glossy finish that catches every eye. Perfect for a night out. With its buttery soft feel, this creamy stick melts onto your lips and will leave you feeling thankful for the purchase. If you like the original Revlon Super Lustrous, give these a try for a more glossy feel!
Maybelline Super Stay Vinyl Ink
Favorite shades: Peachy, Captivated, Lippy, Red Hot & Striking
Maybelline is one of my favorite drugstore brands for a reason! This liquid lipstick offers up to 16 hours of wear, thanks to their Color Lock formula that prevents smudging and transfer. Seriously, the staying power is amazing! If you like the original Super Stay Matte Inks but want a more glossy finish, definitely give these a try. They’re a great Urban Decay Lip Bond dupe!
This long-wearing formula looks like a lip gloss but stays put. Simply shake and swipe for some instant shine that will stay put and feel comfortable. With a variety of shades available, from bold reds to subtle nudes, you won’t be able to find a more comfortable, long-lasting drugstore lipstick.
e.l.f. O Face Satin Lipstick
Favorite shade: Dirty Talk
If you are sleeping on e.l.f. makeup products, just know that you are missing out. You have to give them a chance if you haven’t! Especially their amazing concealers. But this lipstick? Amazing. With just one swipe, this lipstick delivers an intense, satiny color that lasts. Its creamy, long-lasting formula is infused with nourishing squalane and jojoba esters, keeping your lips hydrated and comfortable all day long. I love how comfortable these are with a gorgeous matte finish.
If you’re looking for a good Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk dupe, definitely try the shade Dirty Talk – it’s so similar!
L’Oreal Glow Paradise Balm-in-Lipstick
Favorite shade: Beige Eden
This is your secret to juicy-looking lips. This innovative balm-in-lipstick formula instantly hydrates and nurtures lips, leaving them softer and with a cushiony texture that effortlessly glides across lips. It melts on contact, providing intense hydration and a radiant glow. If you’re a fan of glossy/balmy type of lipsticks, you have to give this one a try! Beige Eden is seriously a gorgeous nude shade.
Milani Color Fetish Matte Lipstick
Favorite shade: Secret
This stunning lippie is designed to complement every skin tone. The ultra-creamy lipstick offers full coverage and one-stroke payoff, gliding seamlessly onto lips for high-comfort wear. Formulated with Hyaluronic Acid, this vegan lipstick nourishes and keeps lips ultra-soft and smooth for long-lasting wear for the entire day.
I love the packaging on these, too! They look so high end. Another Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk dupe is the shade Secret – it’s very similar!
NYX Shine Loud Long-Lasting Liquid Lipstick
Favorite shades: Global Citizen & Goal Crusher
This ultra-pigmented formula offers up to 16 hours of no-transfer wear, delivering bold color with an ultra-glassy, non-sticky shine finish and is one of my favorite liquid formulas. With an easy 2-step application process, simply pair the high-pigment base coat with the ultra-reflective and non-sticky top coat for the most beautiful shine you’ve ever seen, with no budge, bleed, or fade.
These are very unique in that they are two sided with the lipstick on one side and the gloss on the other. I find the best way to wear these is to let the lipstick sit down and dry a little bit before applying the clear gloss. It is such a lovely way to get a long wearing lipstick with a high shine finish!
Maybelline Color Sensational Ultimatte Slim Lipstick
Favorite shades: More Buff, More Ruby & More Magenta
Infused with rich color pigments, this slim lipstick delivers intense color, such as More Buff, a stunning yellow-pink nude. Experience the extreme matte finish with a smooth, cushiony feel that’s lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear. Available in a full range of warm and neutral shades from nude to red, this slim, luxe lipstick is the perfect addition to your makeup collection and will easily become your new favorite lipsticks with matte finishes.
If you like a traditional lipstick feel with a little more longevity, these are going to be for you! While they’re not as long wearing as the Matte or Vinyl inks, they do last really well on the lips and are super comfortable.
