Ever bought a new lipstick in the hope it’ll be the stay-all-day kind, only to find it’s disappeared into oblivion a few hours later?
Youhave?
Same.
The only way to assess a lipstick’s staying power is to buy it and try it. So, theCosmopolitandigital team put a selection of popular lipsticks to the test over lunch at The Langham, Sydney.
THE VERDICT
Kylie Cosmetics Lip Kit in Candy K, $40
Tested by:Erin – Online beauty and lifestyle writer
“Warning: Kylie Jenner Lip Kits are full on. This lipstick definitely stayed put all afternoon BUT it made my lips feel like sandpaper. Personally, I would prefer a product that’s a little less heavy duty, even if that means reapplying here and there.”
Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick in Queen B, $30
Tested by:Sammy – Online news and entertainment writer
“Ireallyliked my lipstick. I applied two coats and it went on oh-so-smoothly. It didn't show the lines or cracks in my lips. I ate a lot and drank a lot and it DID NOT MOVE. It stayed on even in the middle part of my lips and the colour totally brought a pop to my black outfit. 10/10 would recommend.”
Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lipstick in Bombshell, $35

“It lasted pretty much the entire time! It only needed one light top up a couple of hours into lunch to tidy it up, but otherwise it's colour remained the entire time. At one point I did worry that it looked gross and crusty however I checked it out in a mirror and it actually still looked smooth! I may now be a convert! Next time though, I would probably invest in a lip liner as well to tidy up the edges.”
Marc Jacobs LoveMarc Lip Gel in Seduce Me, $41.35

It lasted probably as long as you’d expect a lipstick to last while eating and drinking. It had a really nice feel to it, it didn’t dry out my lips. No smudging (that I noticed). I’d spend money on it as I like the texture and colour but not specifically because it didn’t budge at all.
