Preamble
I didn't used to be such a girly girl. There was a time in my life where nothing like foundation, blush, mascara, and lipstick, ever got near me. Oh sure, during special occasions, I dabbled on this or that. But never on a...

Pros: *Easy to apply
*Inexpensive
*Lasts all day!
Cons: *Top coat is a little greasy when first applied

My Mom always wore lipstick. I remember her commenting that especially as woman got older they needed to add a little color. I don’t know how she did it, other than applying and reapplying all day long, but she managed to always have lipstick on. ...

Pros: Lasts all day. You can eat, drink and kiss and it won't come off.
Cons: Sticky without gloss, correct application is critical, colors not accurate on labels

Let me just start by saying that I am a low-frills kind-of gal. I used to wear Revlon's Colorstay Lipcolor, and friends were always amazed that I could wear my lipstick for hours without touching it up. Unfortunately, even this "kissable" lipstick...

Pros: not too many for my taste
Cons: colors darker than indicated on box, ... read on

When one hears the word INFINITY the reaction is thought to be having no boundaries.

While that definition is correct, keep in mind that IN is before FINITE thereby changing the definition.

FINITE,...

My Daughter and I have been searching for just the right lipstick, one that would last a long time and wouldn’t dry your lips out so bad that they would bleed and peel.

We were in Wal-Mart and were searching the cosmetics aisles when she said...

Introduction

For some reason, I cannot walk into a Wal-Mart store without walking through the beauty product aisles. I generally don’t need anything, but I spend hours just browsing.

I have found that Wal-Mart often has...

Pros: Lasts all day!
Cons: 2-step process, feels sticky when first applied, Shades on box not accurate

Every morning I apply lipstick before I leave for work. After eating breakfast, the lipstick is usually gone by 8:30 a.m. Because of this I have been searching for a long lasting lipstick. Last week while shopping at Drugstore.com, I came across a lip...

Pros: Long lasting, a little goes a long way.
Cons: 2 tubes to keep track of, a bit on the dry side.

I am not sure how I received a sample in the mail of Max Factor's LipFinity lipstick, but I had been meaning to try one of the new all-day semi-permanent lipcolors, so here was my chance staring me down. It's a good thing too, since I would have been...

Pros: Long-lasting, lots of colors
Cons: Weird taste, gloss comes in a separate tube

In one of my many retail therapy sessions at CVS I moseyed down the clearance aisle and found all kinds of odd things on the rack; haircolors that no one wants, old stale beef jerky, some squished tubes of toothpaste and about a million tubes of weird ...

Pros: Lasts all day, good color choices
Cons: Sticky without topcoat, more expensive than others

Before I heard of Cover Girl’s popular new ‘Outlast’ lip color, Max Factor began advertising Lipfinity which is a nearly identical product. Like Outlast, it comes with two wands, one a glossy color, the other a clear topcoat similar to chapstick....

Pros: Long lasting, shiny top-coat, lasts through a meal fairly well
Cons: Drying, greasy top-coat, wears off unevenly

About a year ago I was on the search for my very first red lipstick for my brother's engagement party. I was terrified. I had the gorgeous red frock & the sexy, black stilettos, now all I needed was a "grown-up" and classic red pout.

I'm a...

Pros: Lipcolor lasts and lasts...if I don't remove it, it's still there in the morning.
Cons: If you don't apply it right, you're in trouble for the entire day!

Ok, so I have owned Lipfinity products for over a year now...and finally feel well versed enough to write my review. I tried Covergirl Lipstay in comparison to Lipfinity to see if it was a less expensive alternate. I really really disliked their...

Pros: It certainly felt heavy duty; thorough coverage
Cons: Read on...

I have always had a problem with lipstick staying on. I apply several coats in the morning, but by lunchtime it has always managed to fade or disappear altogether. My problem is that I hate reapplying--I have a very fast-moving lifestyle and it's a pain...

Pros: Has genuine staying power. Wide range of colors.
Cons: Light colors do not go on as easily as darker colors. Can be very drying.

About 25 years ago I went to one of those in-home makeup demonstrations. It was for Aloe Charm... or Aloe Beauty... something like that. If it were Mary Kay, I would have remembered a pink Cadillac, but I don't, so I'm sure it wasn't. To me it was...
