What the gurus are saying

This liquid lipstick earns praise for smooth application and impressive staying power that lasts all day without budging. The main thing to know is that the matte formula can be quite drying, especially around the edges of the mouth, so those with sensitive or easily irritated lips may want to prep with a lip balm first and keep one handy for touch-ups throughout the day.

"I actually do really like Maybelline Lip products. I actually like her face products too. They're really good. It is super pigmented. You need almost nothing on this. The pigmentation in this product is actually a really good example of a drugstore products becoming better. I do really like the pigmentation. It definitely has really good pigmentation."

"It's a matte liquid lip. The first one I had was a while ago and I just thought it was the worst thing ever. I [...] think that's why I didn't like the first one because it went on a little more patchy. [...] But this one goes on really smoothly. It stays on really well. You guys know I'm always drinking beverages, sipping water, coffee, tea, and this stays on really, really well. I've been super happy with this, and I like this color. It's what I'm wearing currently."

"Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink, these longwear matte lip glosses don't wear off, 16-hour wear. These can be very drying just as a word of warning and they can be particularly irritating around the corners of the mouth."

"This one from Maybelline in gone gr is so good"

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.
