Covergirl Outlast Lip Stain

I hate lipstick.


I've got big ol' lips that make me look like a little girl snooping in mom's makeup bag when I wear caked-on out-of-the-tube lipstick.

So that's why I'm semi-obsessed with the idea of lip stain and have tried quite a few over the years, the best of those being from higher-end cosmetic lines which are more of a gamble (hard to find, expensive to buy).  So when I saw an ad about this new stuff from Covergirl, I squealed.  It's like a magic marker, but it's socially appropriate to smear all over your lips!

I've had to put on a couple coats to keep the color going, but for what I was looking for, it works just fine.

The first one I got was a safe pinkish-mauve which, upon close inspection, doesn't have the name listed on the tube.  FAIL.  They all have cute little names on the display in the store!  Anywho, I went back last night and got a darker red for when I'm feeling fab.  I'm going to a wine tasting on Friday and can't wait to try it!

I'm more of a burts bees gal - but this might be cool for going out on the town. Nice write-up!
