Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick, Portofino

Original product

As usual when I read reviews about products I see the helpful reviews and those that are written by unrealistic people. This lipstick is no exception in that reviews are varied. I guess I think it's common sense that a lipstick boasting to last 6 hours is going to stay on pretty well and not be full of moisture or that one needs to be somewhat precise when putting this on, but that's just me I guess. To address some of the concerns from other reviews, yes it does stay on, but it is easily removed with putting a balm on your lips so it's not like you are stuck with it. As far as messy goes, I don't see how it is messy, but hey, I guess someone did. What I do know is this is the best lipstick I have ever purchased. I don't wear makeup at all except of lipstick and mascara and I am cheap and not one bit into brand names, but this lipstick delivers. My lips actually look fuller wearing this and I love how the color stays. Yes, it is not a moisturizing lipstick but I would not call it drying. I do however dab a tiny bit of Aquaphor over it if my lips feel dry (not to much though or the color will come off). I am brunette with a medium skin tone that likes a more natural look and at first I ordered the color "Aria" (which I like), but it is to bold for my practical everyday look. The second color I ordered was "patina" which is my all time new favorite color. It is a stunning, natural looking mauve like rose shade that looks stunning on dark haired people. Again, this is the best makeup product that I have ever purchased and I would suggest giving it a try if you are a reasonable person and don't expect perfection out of a product.

It arrived promptly and it exceeded my expectations. Stila has a good reputation and it certainly will remain one of my favorites. Thank you!

It lasts up to 6-8 hrs with my mask on. There’s a little color transfer. But the color pay off is amazing esp. when you put makeup on your lips first.

Love this lipstick! It stays on all day. Better then others I have tried!

This is by far the best liquid matte lipstick available. Cant thank Cliqkart enough for making it available to me well before time . I absolutely love it!
