Smoothwear All-Day Lipcolor

Some of you asked what kind of lipstick I mentioned in my previous post. I used to LOVE MaxFactor lite Lipfinity Lipstick but they stopped selling it for some reason (doesn't that always seem to happen - that your favorite products are discontinued).

So I decided to try Cover Girl OutLast Smoothwear All-Day Lipcolor. It stays on for about 8 hours. They also have an Outlast lip color that lasts for 16 hours but I think it's thick and heavy. I don't like thick pasty lipstick and this smoothwear kind has a little moisture in it and it doesn't seem too heavy. I still have to reapply lip balm (preferably Mentholatum) throughout the day for added moisture.

This lipstick doesn't rub off on your kids or your clothes (unless it's still wet from application. but it only takes a minute or two to dry). I stopped wearing lipstick when I had kids because I kept getting it all over their clothes and skin... until now.

I'm sure other make-up companies have their version of this, and if you try a different brand, let me know how you like it.

I haven't been a big lipstick wearer since I have had kids either. Most days I am not even a make-up wearer, oh well. Thanks for the info though, sounds like it works good. I might just have to try it out!

Kristen Danielson uses that same lipstick. Do you remember her? That is so funny because I was noticing the other day that her lipstick always stays on. Maybe I'll have to give it a try.
