CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain Reviews

I Ousted Outlast!
After much commercial hype about this, I was anxious to try it. At the time I was the "Drugstore Deals Reviewer" for a major online beauty site. The colors were lovely; I chose a few and puckered it. My mouth remained puckered. The formula dried it so badly that I felt like I was in a bad dream. Unless you are will to continually coat lips with a powerful gloss, run--don't walk--away from this stain! — 3 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 5 people said helpful

Didn't like the taste
It stained the lips like it should, but it left an AWFUL taste on my lips. I'm one to compulsively lick my lips and it was awful. The colors aren't very desirable to my taste; I'd prefer something else. It's basically like using a marker on your lips. I didn't use this after one or two times, waste of my money. — 2 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 8 of 11 people said helpful

Very Good.
My friend got two of the same lipstains (#400). We're both really different, she's pretty pale compared to me and our lips have different pigmentations. This color comes off very pretty, like a very dark pink, but not quite red. I like the idea of a lipstain, but this fell short of my expectationsI gave it 2 lippies because I really do like the color. The staying power sucks though. I have to reapply it multiple times a day because if I lick my lips it comes off. If I drink/eat anything it comes off. Also, it leaves my lips feeling dry even if I've put lipbalm before. There is also a weird taste if I do lick my lips, like a bittersweet taste. I don't think I will repurchase, but it is kinda of great if I have to run and go. It's very buildable but kind of hard to blend out if put on already. I've had mine for about a year now...I have only used it sparingly though because I forgot I had it. I only tried this once for one hour. The color stays even after taking shower, I had to take it off with makeup remover. I don't like how it feels when you put it on. it feels like you are drawing lines on ur lips with a marker. It is not shiny at all. if you add a lip gloss on top of it, it looks nice. I am not sure if it will last all day with eating and drinking. but it looked like it will. i tried rubbing the color off with my finger and it didn't come off at all. its one of those things which u might really love or really hate. Reapplying lip color constantly is such a pain! I thought this product might be a good alternative but I was rather disappointed. I bought the cinnamon color and have since tried applying it in different ways. The first problem is that it is not color true. The box suggests it's a nice nude brown but if you test it on your skin or apply to your lips it quickly turns into a dark red. Very startling! If the stain is applied lightly the color change is less dramatic but it sure doesn't stay brown. This was something I tested on four friends with different skin tones and it happened to all of them. I don't know if the other stains are color true but it is something to be aware of. The second issue is that despite being a 'stain' the color doesn't last. Applied without gloss or anything else on my lips it wears off fairly quickly if I don't eat or drink. If I do eat or drink it vanishes almost immediately. Applying gloss over the top makes it go even faster. My friends had similar experiences. Honestly, I might as well just use lip liner which (for me) lasts just about as long. The third negative is the way it goes on. It is not like a lipstick where you have a solid, rich color. Applied lightly it gives a tint of color which can be very pretty and natural looking. You can also layer it for a deeper color. Unfortunately, the color still remains patchy unless you really work to blend it in. Getting an even application is really hard! I'm not sure if this is the fault of the product or the applicator. Finally, the lip stain magnifies dryness no matter how much or little you wear. Adding a layer of gloss, either before or after, doesn't help and makes the lip stain wear off much faster. Only one of my friends seemed not to experience what we dubbed the lip shrivel. It did look very nice on her but one out of five isn't all that great. I don't think I will buy again or test other lip stains by Cover Girl. I might test other brands but my hope aren't high. — 1 year, 4 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 9 of 17 people said helpful

Terrible!
The Outlast Lip Stain dried my lips out terribly! It also did not stay on as I would have liked. If you to try a great lip stain, try Tarte's lips stains. :) — 1 year, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 9 of 13 people said helpful

Great for Summer
This is a great product for summer. The shades are light and bright - they really pack a punch! The product also feels very light on the lips, has a nice scent, and a nice taste. That being said, they can be a bit drying and don't last too terribly long. If your lips are not super moisturized, the product tends to end up in a ring around your lips and look like bad lip liner. That being said, you can't use moisturizer before applying the product. I did find that a basic lip balm after product use helps extend the life of the product on your lips and helps with the drying issue. This isn't my favorite product, but I certainly don't regret buying it. It is much better than the Revlon version. — 1 year, 10 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

Good Lipstain...
I like this lipstain because it comes in nice colours and the colour actually lasts. The con with these lipstains though is that the applicator sucks and it dispeneses really unevenly. Also quite drying on the lips so make sure to top it with a gloss or something to take away from the dryness. — 2 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 5 people said helpful

a great, true stain
you get a felt tip marker type wand in a great selection of shades at a drug store low price of around 7$, and what you have inside is a true lip stain, not a drying long wear gloss. its absolutly liquid inside, and you should put it on completly clean, dry lips, with no chapping or peeling bc the color will be much darker and longer lasting on the dry skin parts and may sting a little in any cracks. other than that it lasts and lasts, 4+ hours and you can leave it by itself for a matte finish, add clear lipbalm for a semimatte look or clear gloss for a shiny, translucent bright colored finish. you can layer the stain untill you get the depth of color you want, making it even more versatile, and if you put the stain under colored glosses, shimmer or glitter shades you already have well, even more fun! it really is a perfect all around addition and tons of fun. hit. — 4 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 19 of 22 people said helpful

Skip and Get the Maybelline One
This product sucks...no other description fits. The colors are way too deep, they don't last and they apply badly, lots of color in one spot but not enough in another. I'd give it NO stars if that was an option! — 2 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful
