I love the different shades and it lasts long the only downside it is vital to apply some lip moisturiser before applying it. My lips dried and cracked after a while
Really loved the colour last on this one. Although the gloss adds for moisture I do prefer a straight on matte finish. The colour lasted long however I found it harsh on my lip. While I would recommend it for people that prefer an all day colour with a shine, those that want a matte finish should rather opt out because using it without the gloss doesn't feel so pretty!

I used the Revlon ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor in Stay Currant. The instructions for use were very clearly labelled on the side of the packaging the lipcolor came in. They stated that you’ll need to apply the colour onto bare lips and cover evenly. Now, because this is a long-stay lip colour, you’ll need to make sure you apply it very carefully, otherwise it’s going to be very difficult to wipe off.
I applied the colour first, as instructed. It was very easy to apply and I only had to go back into the tube once to get the full coverage I wanted. You can decide how deep you want the colour to be by while applying the colour. The more coats you put on, the deeper the colour will be.
After waiting for the colour to dry, which only took a few seconds, I applied the moisturiser. It is applied using a little brush, which I found to be inconvenient and irritating. The brush is too small to give you enough of the gloss to cover your whole lip. In fact, I had to dip into the gloss twice for the lower lip and twice again for the upper lip. The brush applicator is definitely a negative point for me.
The colour stayed on all day, but it did wear off as the day went on. The colour became less and less evident, especially after I’d had a meal. The moisturising topcoat, however, is a very good one and the glossy shine and comfortable feel lasts for a few hours.
If you are looking for an effective colorstay lipcolor that lasts for a number of hours and not necessarily the full 16 hours, then Revlon ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor would be for you. However, you’d have to either endure the little applicator brush for the moisturising topcoat, or you can wear a clear lip gloss or lip balm of your choice to keep your lips looking healthy and shiny.
I love this lipstick! i prefer the more red colour though. This lipstick lasts forever and sometimes if i fall asleep without taking it off I will even wake up with it so this lipstick can last longer than 12 hours.
It needs to be removed with makeup remover or vaseline. It looks great. The original price is a bit much but i always manage to get it on sale at clicks or dischem.
