Meh
I have to be honest, I didn't like this product very much. It was alright when I didn't have any other lip stains on hand, but the staying power wasn't very impressive. Plus, it seemed to transfer. I don't remember the name of the color, but I got the brightest red I could find. I actually prefer the Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain because it doesn't transfer, doesn't dry out as quickly for me, lasts longer, and includes a lip balm at the other end. It is a little pricier, but I feel it's worth it. I purchased this for quite cheap in Work It Plum. While the colour itself is subtle and natural looking.. this does not last at all! In the above swatch photo I compared it will Revlons Just Bitten stain. After around 15 minutes I wiped gently with a damp cloth to test which would prevail. The NYC one disappeared 95% percent, while Revlon's disappeared 30%. One positive this about these, are that the felt tip is much more fine compared to other stain such as the Cover Girl and Revlon ones. Though these are cheap, they do not last that long on my lips nor hand in a test. I would not recommend or repurchase. I bought the color "persistent pink" and I admit that I loved the color so much. It's a clean pretty pink that you rarely get with lip stains plus it smells good and it actually lasts long. However, the marker tip dried so fast. I was irritated that no color would come out after I used it twice. I don't know, maybe I got a crappy one? The color selection looked amazing, but how can I use something that'll dry out in less than two days? — 1 year, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

MAJOR Disappointment
I was excited to try this, since I use a lot of their other products, and they're all reasonably priced. I put it on 1st thing when I got home (excited to see how long it would really work). MAJOR disappointment: I even waited a 1/2 hour before eating or drinking anything to give it time to set, and after I was done eating dinner ... looked in the mirror, and not a trace of the lip"stain" left on my lips. Major waste of money, and the applicator doesn't hold it's shape, making it awkward to apply evenly. It also smells like a Sharpie ... phew! (I bought this in the Never Ending Nude shade). — 1 year, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

cool product!
it's a pretty cool product. I like that it really stays only on the lips and is matte. I got it in Champagne Stain, and the color is a bit too bright if applied with the applicator onto bare lips. I like applying it on a thin coat of chapstick- just touch my lips here and there and blend with the finger. This way lips look more moist and the color is sheer and not too bright, and still lasts pretty long without staining anything. I also like the color much more that way, really freshens up my complexion. Very good product for the price, will definitely try the persistent pink one next. — 2 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful
